I for one don't buy the line that so much work goes into VC games. PCs from 15 years ago could emulate NES and SNES games easily with a 5mb emulator and 0-2mb ROMs, created for free by amateurs. You're saying that Nintendo, in 2014, can't get their old games emulated on new consoles without a ton of work and money?

This is just about the worst idea ever. How is this guy a paid writer? What the hell is going on at the Sporting News? This is like an Onion article...

For the life of me, I can't figure out why Sony and Nintendo are so hesitant to put much of their back catalog up, whether on a virtual console or a streaming service. These IPs are just sitting there! It doesn't require so much manpower to make a working emulator and roms that they'd need to sell very much to come

I was a big fan during the Attitude era and let me tell you... I didn't need Stone Cold to tell me to give the finger to people, or DX to tell me to point to/grab my crotch. In fact, I distinctly remember that as a kid, I mean like 8-9 years old, that everyone swore like sailors. Seriously, the foulest language I've

"Will nobody think of the children!!!!!!!!"

Well, he had that one shot KO power, so he'd always have a puncher's chance against anybody. But I think he'd have trouble with Lewis/Holyfield... embarrassed might not be the right word, "frustrated" might be better

I mean... does it really even matter whether they get in at this point? The HoF has pretty thoroughly discredited itself, it's basically a social club of old beat writers who get hard-ons whenever they see David Eckstein. If Clemens and Bonds aren't admitted into the Hall, will people forget about them, or stop

Mike Tyson, even in his heyday, would have been embarrassed by Holyfield or Lewis. Tyson was undersized for a heavyweight and it was really apparent when he fought these taller, rangier guys who could just keep him at a distance with the jab and wear him down.

I find the whole American microbrewery culture absolutely fascinating. Hipsters drinking overly hoppy IPAs and trying to convince themselves that America makes good beer.

"No, dude, that's not true. Early Access means you're paying for the game as it exists, not for the final product. You're not guaranteed a final product. Valve clearly states that the game may not get finished and the buyer needs to be aware of that"

"I'm not the one that's wrong here."

Yeah, and I don't owe them shit, either. Which is why I would think long and hard before giving this guy any money in the future, since he's shown he can't necessarily be trusted.

Maybe you haven't noticed this, but early access went from being an interesting new approach for small devs to being horribly overused basically overnight. Go on Steam and GOG and there's a good chance that the MAJORITY of games you encounter on the front page/best sellers lists are Early Access games.

I'm about as big a Tolkien fan as there is (I saw Fellowship in theaters like 9 or 10 times), but dear god are they ever milking this thing. Each of the first two movies was painfully slow, in a completely unnecessary, forced way that made it very obvious that they were cynically drawing it out as much as possible. I

That trailer is a complete bait and switch. Very sleazy, but since Ratner`s involved, I shouldn`t be surprised

Apparently not in Japan.

I remember doing Karate as a kid and being made to sit like that... was uncomfortable as hell. I don't know how Japanese people do it, it's literally painful to sit like that.

Man I remember when Deadspin comment sections weren't full of butthurt conservatives bitching about LIBRUL BIAS

Paul spends much of his letters inventing a new religion from whole cloth that has literally next to nothing to do with anything the historical Jesus ever did or said.

"No sooner had Jesus knocked over the dragon of superstition than Paul boldly set it on its legs again in the name of Jesus." -G.B. Shaw
