The cry for better, more movie/television style, storytelling has been a rallying cry as gaming has grown into a larger industry. Developers, like Naughty Dog, goes to great lengths to craft every aspect of their narrative so that we know every detail about the state of the world, and the motivations of every named

Finally, finally, finally we can start to treat the Cubs like the large market team they are.

The Wii U is going to end up shipping just 15% of what the Wii sold (the DS to 3DS drop is less stark at around 40%.) That is a stunning drop in hardware sales.

Being reactive is better than no action, but these are a lot of common sense features that should have been in Steam for years now.

Now playing

I think I want to play this? I have always had a soft spot for arcade racers with the most over the top cabinets possible.

Terribly off-brand, but I am too lazy to go through the effort of changing a Twitter handle.

I love the hell out of this. People get too wound up thinking their day to day is boring, and that there is nothing significant about all of the little things that add up in our lives.

Silicon Valley is, and never will be, anyone’s friend. Thiel is the poster child for the libertarian Utopian wet dream that many of the venture capitalists that prays to at the alter of disruption.

No one lives by the “Players are expendable” creed more than the New England Patriots.

Kindle Fire’s and Galaxy Tabs, which size wise are around what the Switch’s screen controller it, start around $150. Products like the Leap Pad, which start at $100, have also started to shave off customer base from the younger age groups.

They really need to nail the pricing on this. If the Switch launches north of the $200-$250 range, it will collect dust on store shelves by April.

I really dig these entrance interviews that have popped up on the site over the summer. Talk about a great way to get folks a way to know the motivations of the new staff.

Sony did the same thing in 2013 when they revealed the PS4. They took the low hanging fruit and fired shots at Microsoft for their policies over used games and always online.

If Pokemon were real, my Aunt Phylis’s chair would be a Missingno.

I played it yesterday for a few hours, and the amount of quality gear that dropped was very noticeable, though I was only exploring in Tier 2.

Primaries being kicked to the wayside as always been my biggest gripe with the game. I really enjoy the hell out of the Crucible, but it gets tired when you get stuck in map after map of hallways and running into people running shotguns and fusion rifles. Special ammo should be as scarce as Heavy ammo in PvP.

I let my nephew use my laptop to watch some videos while I was doing some cleaning, and he just chain watched the hell out of videos from Toy Freaks and a couple similar channels.
