Come on. Everyone was out-of-their-pants happy when they adopted DVD-style and 'jewel' cases for basic editions instead of bulky boxes.

Errr, no, it had random encounters on the world map. At least the 2nd one as I have not replayed the first for at least a decade. When you traveled somewhere for the first time, they were "filler storyline battles". Once you cleared an area and passed through it to revisit an earlier town or something, there was a…

When you are used to American English, there's that weird thing: a drunken man missing half of his teeth still sounds like a royalty if he's speaking British.

Idk. I'm a straight man myself, but the only kind of porn that does not have wieners - i.e. female+female - is the most disgusting one for me. Worse than male + male even.

You know what's even more crazy? We once had ore cone and shake as seasonal special in Russia and we don't even have oreos here. Everyone was like wtf

But that's true, or at least used to be. When Mass Effect was still a 360 exclusive, people were bitching about fps drops. I was a PC gamer back then and when I tried it, I had a hard time understanding what the fuss is about. The game was running smoother than 95% of contemporary PC games.

If you live with your parents, don't go out and basically don't have any expenses other than games, you can get something about 1 full price game per working day at American minimum wage. That may be cheap for a person like that but this is hardly something to be proud of.

I don't think it aged that well. Just walking from town to town and getting into pointless 40 minute encounter is something more modern games learned to avoid.

There wasn't a 3, so no need to pretend. That crappy ps2 tabletop was a different SaGa, just like Romancing SaGa on snes. SF 2 was cool though. I even remember writing a fanfic for it that was good enough to be published in a local newspaper. Gameplay wasn't as solid, but the atmosphere was top notch and I loved the…

Back in the 90s, when in high school, everyone would laugh at those guys who always select female characters when given a chance. They would also ridicule those who prefer to select physically frail casters in role-playing games rather than some class that can take a punch(or evade and counter it). Granted, this was…

When I was in CA last month, I wanted to pick up some of the AAA games I did not buy at full price last year, GTA5, AC IV and The Last of Us to name a few. I was hoping I could just walk in to Target or Gamestop and get them at half the Russian price just because American retail is way more competitive. To my…

>if you actually go by their expiration "strip" in determining when the cartridge needs replaced.

Except Porsche Unleashed? Why? So many people consider it to be the best NFS ever.

OLED may be a great tech. I love the screen on my Note 3...although I also loved the LCD on my 2012 Xperia phone. But the one used in 1000 model Vitas is hardly a good example of this tech. Almost every Vita has mura effect. When you're playing in a room with lights off, or on a plane, anywhere where it's more or less…

>Facebook isn't going to invest a buttload of money into something and NOT benefit from it somehow

The best thing to do with this technology is throw it into a dumpster. If you can get $2 billion out of that - good for you!

Google? Seriously? That's evil empire rivaling Putin's vision of Russia. How can Facebook is waaay better.

Why would he even hate FB so much in the first place. They provide a valuable service to the society and they aren't nearly as pushing their shit up your throat or as evil in invading your privacy as Google.

Would you refuse 2 fucking billion dollars because of some stupid 'internet backlash'? Especially when the backlash isn't all that reasonable. It's just one company on a shopping spree paying tenfold(or even more) for every tech startup they like buying the leader of the most recent fad. Hardly a big problem. I'd…

I'm pretty happy about this. This VR fad isn't 'the future' in my book, it's something in the vein of stereoscopic 3D and motion control. With Facebook there's more chances it won't affect that part of gaming culture I know and love.
