Are you getting paid overtime?

I take it you people have never heard of low fantasy?

I’m on the fence on this album. I want to like it...but something’s off about it.

I don’t mean to be a butt, but is it possible for you to add a tag or something on any front page posts for these reviews to identify them as board games? I’m not particularly interested in tabletop stuff, and I get a little annoyed when I find that a new review isn’t for some new video game but a board game...

EmuParadise came to be shortly after the last major ROM purge (which was around 2000-ish, the peak of emulation as a scene). Nintendo had been mostly quiet up until now. It’s possible that another site or three will quietly take its place, assuming the hooplah over this dies down.

This is something the TV industry has been trying for decades, with very weak or mixed results. Remember WebTV?

I will say they killed the handheld market. Part of the reason the Vita (and to a lesser extent 3DS) struggled was because of smartphones.

It just goes to the Nitro page, not to the announcement blog post, I.E. this post I had to dig up

Could you post a link to the blog post, Nathan? I want to read what they said because I want to know about details not written here, such as how they’ll approach DRM and stuff, and I shouldn’t have to hunt it down

In one of those really ugly meshings of history and such, a lot of Irish folk at the time were sympathetic to the Confederate cause. Remember that they were still under control of the British at this point, and the famine was still a fresh memory in the eyes of many. Moreover, due to various machinations outside of…

Eagerly awaiting the tell-all from Gisele Bundchen when the divorce inevitably occurs, and we find out he’s into being treated like a dog

There are a couple possibilities. One is, as mentioned above, the survey was Euro-centric. While Europe doesn’t have much in the way of labor efforts for game devs in particular, they still have greater labor protections in general. Another possibility is that this is a lull in the development cycle (which makes sense…

You’re overreaching on the definition of scam, then. Scam implies malicious intent. The kid sounded clearly in over his head and didn’t anticipate the complexity of handling intellectual property. If making a mistake and not performing due diligence out of mere ignorance on a project counts as malice, then you’ve…

Now, the burning question going into the upcoming semifinal: How England is England?

Soooo, Octopath Traveler is basically Live-A-Live but set in a traditional fantasy setting?

Who is to say it’s “not a viable business decision?” The reason we’re even having this argument is that people still treat animation as a whole, and 3D animation in particular, as “for kids.” Disney has certainly maintained that belief to a meticulous level (I recall Don Hertzfeldt explaining how a Disney producer…

Why should it be targeted toward younger viewers?

...They could’ve just as much with Grim Fandango! That’s a fallacious argument and you know it

...You know, when Pixar announced they were working on an animation on Dia de los Muertos, Disney still had the IP to Grim Fandango through the Lucasfilm acquisition. I just said, “For fuck’s sake, Pixar, you have the perfect opportunity to break out of the mold that 3D animation must be for kids. It’s on your plate.…

And now, the 3DS family is officially doomed.
