On the sliding continuum of 'gaming as a worthy pursuit,' board games are respected more than video games.

I'm surprised at all the KFC hate in the comments section. Somehow when it's a burger it would be around 50/50 even for the most horrible ones. But when it's chicken, it's just flat out hate. What's wrong with chicken? Except for personal preferences of course - they can't cause such an uniform reaction. Is it that…

...or something else.

I got enough jrpgs to last me until type-0 and persona 5 on christmas sale. This starts just the moment after winter sale ends so I'm not even sure I could benefit from thid

Koudelka played like something from an older era even in 2000. Like phantasy star 2 or something. Annoyingly devoid of all the modern conveniences.

i remember this game being hillariously bad. And that's coming from someone who only plays jrpgs and loves obscure titles like Agarest.

Tears to Tiara 2.

I don't think Minish Cap is particularly easy. Maybe by 90s standards, when people (me included) could complete brutal games like Alundra without gamefaqs. But around 2008 when I got my hands on The Minish Cap, I remember being frustrated every other hour not knowing where to go next. And finally giving up somewhere…

I don't think he was pissed about the part that goes to whenever electricity comes from, but rather about the proprietary plug used by 3ds. That's one extra cable to mess around with. With 3ds, vita, ipad, samsung galaxy note 3, dual shock 3 and dual shock 4 I have to store 6 freaking usb cables in one compartment.…

Slim Vita gave up on proprietary plug. Something I was hoping new 3ds could do, too.

It's not the cost of it that matters but rather the inconvenience of having to buy it separately.

We're on completely different sides of spectrum here. This, I would say, what DLC are actually for - useless trinkets designed to make most loyal fans pay more. Compared to cut stuff(day one level and character dlc) and levels that may be great but come out when I'm done with the game(later dlc) these are actually…

Indians and Chinese must be ashamed of being grouped with Russians and Brazilians. Even if they do not have toilets and prefer to shit on the street, Indian IT companies can have tens of thousands of educated professionals. And look at the science papers. Most of them will have at least one author with a chinese name,…

Well, MS seems to manage somehow and keep Serving Brazilian customers. Sony and Steam have a very healthy business in Russia. But Nintendo is all like 'to hell with emerging markets'.

My guess would be you're using official rates and they are fixed to something unreasonably low, while the retailers have to use a market exchange rate which must make these numbers less outrageous. however, even if market rate is ten times more Bolivares per dollar compared to official, that's still pretty expensive!

Brazil, as described by you, seems to be exactly like Russia I live in. Only hot and humid instead of having long, cold winters. And not waging wars on weaker neighbours every 5-10 years.

Thank you guys. Can't wait!

I was so fired up when I clicked on twitter link to this post. Of course it couldn't be anything but Trails in the Sky ch 2.

I own both and I like my Vita way more than ps4 because it has games while ps4 does not, unless I'm willing to pay an arbitrary premium for already expensive western AAA releases compared to PS3 and PC. And I'm not even Japanese.

There's much to "do" in Inquisition, but how much of it is meaningful? Sorry to point fingers, but how much are we to blame? Given how we talk about games, how much weight we put on length being a determination of quality, aren't we encouraging this behavior? We expect an RPG to be dozens, if not hundreds, of hours…
