Meh, that stance really isn’t any better than the rabid fandom you’re complaining about. Are you under the impression that all of those franchises you listed have always been well-established? They haven’t, they all became popular because the games were good enough to create FANS.

Great, can’t wait to go back and see how terrible Tetra Master still is.

That’s more or less a product of using Steam. You’d be amazed how far out of your gaming comfort zone you can get on there sometimes, and the gems you’ll find in the process.

Glad to see a Chroma Squad shout-out tucked in there at the end. What a charming little XCOM-lite that was.

Its not GOTY material by any means, but you should really check out Concrete Jungle on Steam. Tactical turn-based city-building deck-building puzzle game that is surprisingly deep. Seems like your cup o’ tea based off of what you’re normally praising on here.

True, but a lot of local stores use different distributors than the big chains, and depending on their back stock you might be able to luck into some great finds.

I don’t understand how a helpful suggestion made you this salty. He didn’t say anything eliteist, he simply offered an alternative for those that don’t know there are OTHER options for used games that are not Gamestop. The fact that it didn’t apply to YOU specifically doesn’t mean it’s not a helpful suggestion for…

First two albums are super underrated. Hang Ups still gets some play every now and again. Shame they had to be involved with the whole Jive records bull that RBF and I think the Pilfers had to deal with as well.

I honestly expected to be disappointed, but I was not.

Review is solid.

Finally, a game that can satisfy my need to socialize with birds, without the constant gross feeling of trying to bone them that came with “Hatoful Boyfriend.”

I snorted my coffee out at this and I’m terribly disappointed in myself for doing so. Well done.

I cringed soooooooooo hard reading that “true gamer” rant. That guy is the full embodiment of the “old man yells at cloud” bit.

So how long until I can get mad at Anita Sarkeesian for this?

It’s a shame this doesn’t have more stars in the 5 minutes its been posted.

Believe it or not, plopping a No Entry sign at the entrance when you’re nearing the end of a scenario and see your total guests dropping below the goal is an incredibly effective strategy, so long as you remove it before your Park Rating goes to absolute hell.

I hope I’m not the only one that reads his twitter handle as “Ew, Erickson.”

Well yar, that “serve and protect” is meant for each other, not the general public.

Nothing says “I’m a human being that makes mistakes like everyone else” like allowing another human being to get under your skin and then foolishly barking something childish back to them in a public light.

That’s what I always thought, it acts/looks just as an archaic piece of technology would.
