Hint: look up top. You ain't on Kotaku anymore...

To be fair, some of them can be completed in a single play session.

Well now I know.

Hmm. I worked at one for 2 1/2 years and never saw that happening.

A-frickin-men to your point about some bartenders not knowing how to mix drinks. I have long-standing problem. In some bars when I order a mai tai, I get a properly made drink with dark rum, orange and pineapple juice and whatever else the bar does to put their spin on it. Yet in others, I get back instead a drink…

Ignorant meat-eating savage question: If the fries are fried in vegetable oil, how are they not vegan?

"Agrillo's team always conducts the studies in its laboratory. But when owners brought their cats over, most of the felines freaked out."

New York Chloro-Flourocarbons?

If the bug was only discovered in the last few days and only widely publicized this morning, then they will probably rollback to say 2-3 days ago. If you haven't played in 4 days, then nothing has changed on your account in that time and everything will be exactly s you left it. If they rollback from earlier than…

Being in tight spots isn't the issue. Being in tight spots and being able to get out of them until your characters go crazy for no damn reason is.

The emotional connection to the game I get when that happens is "Fuck, I just wasted 15 minutes, now I have to start over."

The pasty skin, it reflects the Sun and BURNS us!

How is having the soldier you REALLY needed to finish off that sectopod before its turn having a panic attack and not doing so wonderful?

The article seems to indicate that CCP does.

Ugh, I once quicksaved a split-second before getting headshot by a sniper in Max Payne. Had to start the whole level over.

Not a troll at all. Think about it. The series is called "Grand Theft Auto," yet the driving controls have never been the best. The game is lauded for its open word setting, yet the story missions are infamous for railroading the player into one course of action. The game, not the player, decides that a certain…

Y'know, when I first saw the trailer, I thought that the new look was a bit off, but it probably wasn't a big deal. Seeing this comparison tho, #1 just looks looks a thousand times better. Laird is right, Bay is fixing something that ain't broke.

How do the relative population sizes have any bearing on what he said? They do not matter. From a pure business standpoint, the OP's point is this: Localizing JRPGs and sending them to NA/Europe will at least triple your sales, perhaps even quintuple them. Granted, localizing isn't free, it requires an investment,…

Well sure, the critics had their concerns and I know lots of people (like me) who were disappointed with the game after they ignored the critics and bought it, but the thing is, they bought it. Squeenix got their money. So I'm sure they could care less about critics and customer's opinions after the fact.

Y'know, I get that people buy/use alternate operating systems because they have a some problem with Windows/MS, and that's fine. But such people also know (or should know) going in that software availability might be an issue. Nobody held a gun to your head and forced you to install Linux or buy a Macbook. You made…
