This. Now that I make a decent wage, I was super happy to pick up an Atari 5200 - the first console I remember my parents having, as a baby.

I’m 1000% on-board with this.

I would hug you if I could.

So it’s the ‘watching a train in film for the first time’ moment. Because you strip away the gimmick, and there’s nothing actually engaging or interesting about these games-as-games. Just games as ‘experiences’ or ‘spectacles.’

Maybe? I mean, must there be a reason? Must a single person be accountable to explaining himself and every single thing he does outside of a game, to hundreds of thousands of people every single day?

I wonder if it’s because Toby Fox, being one person and all, can’t realistically make it to an event like this. Maybe it’s money, maybe it’s other obligations - who knows?

You make an excellent point!

For a game series that’s all about ‘buy these toys that you can only use in this thing,’ making one-time unlocks and free characters available is a gutsy move for Battlegrounds. I wonder if the ‘gotta catch ‘em all’ mindset is finally cooling on the toys themselves, and Disney’s looking for new ways to get people…

Hmmm...if some indie dev made a Power Stone-inspired game, straight up mentioning it by name, Gamers would dogpile on Capcom.

Stop talking sense to the tech fetishists. They hate that.

Ah, I love him even more now!

I’ve honestly never watched pro wrestling, but Xavier did a thing for Hot Pepper Gaming, and now he’s my favorite:

Neither, and save $60?

Ravémon, really.

haha, that and Sakura’s been in high school for...20 years now (Alpha to just-before-3)?

I think a big deal in it is who returns in 3 (not many characters), as well as leaving the Shadaloo/Psycho Power/Bison story behind. In 3 we get Gill & Urien, and Bison is supposed (?) to be dead.

At least compared to other Zelda games (even the original).

Okay, gonna lean on the help of fellow nerds (and Evan!) here: is there a trade paperback that collects Priest’s run? The sound of a ‘political thriller soap opera comedy’ sounds too good to miss.

I love, love, LOVE that you guys are willing to review a game that’s more than 2 weeks old. ^^

This is such a bummer - I tried their demo on Wii U and instantly knew I wanted to Day 1 Rive. That this will be their last game...? Man...
