But it's really about ethics in game journalism.

I dunno, I consider it the official MS tool for downloading Firefox.

You have no idea what you are missing out on. Probably the majority of my favorite games of all time are games that I just kind of found out about randomly or just picked up on a whim. They were games I heard a good recommendation about from someone I trusted. They were games I picked up because I heard they were like…

You personally might not, but the trend doesn't really indicate that the general populace thinks like that. It's why so many people rage when their favorite game that was just released doesn't get a score above 8. They blame reviewers for being paid off by corporations to give specific scores and all sorts of other…

If you are a relatively hardcore gamer who plays about 15 titles per year, and you choose those titles entirely based on metacritic, you will wind up playing all the best games. You will never miss a Last of Us or a Bioshock because you rely on Metacritic.

The thing is, it really doesn't work like that. Kids are raised on our school systems where anything below an 80 is considered bad, in other words an 'A' grade. So while you can say there's nothing wrong with assigning 5s and 6s, the truth of the matter is that no one pays attention to scores below a 7. At that point,…

Choose and Throne. Two words, six letters each.

Not entirely true, though the percentage of users that pirate that would otherwise pay is small.

#1 solution to reducing piracy - make your product and/or service affordable and accessible to your audience.

If I can legally obtain the material then I will pay for it, I am not however going to be left behind in cultural relevance because a producer refuses to distribute it in my region. The second it becomes legally available I will buy a product, even if i have watched it as a means of back-payment. However as long as…

While I am not a fan of piracy but the blame falls on the studios who release the shows, if there is no way for me to watch or buy it from them, then how the fuck else am I going to be able to see it? They really need to get rid of the old men running these networks, I understand the right to protect what belongs to…

Now time to play dark souls with the drums and starcraft with a guitar

If I ever win at one, yes!

God, this just makes me want to throw even more gobs and gobs of cash at these beautiful motherfuckers!

Conversely, I've been wearing glasses for about 11 years and I've purchased about 11 of those kits, because people at my workplaces always ask to use a screwdriver and then I never get it back.

Too many currencies!!! It's artificially extending it all. I've been hoarding shards and commendations for the next DLC, of course by then, they will all be useless and there will probably be 4 new currencies.

What frustrates me about Monument Valley is that it's not available for anything I could play it on. Windows? No. Xbox 360? Nope. Wii U? Nuh-uh. 3DS? Sorry.

Makes me wonder how cheap you have to be to steal a $5 game.?

I remember when I tried to make 2x2 blocks door that opens by pressing the button. It sounded easy - two upper blocks connected with pistons go up and two lower ones go down.
I failed miserably. In fact, no matter what I tried in Minecraft that involves redstones, it always ended up with no result. So watching…
