The one flaw in your argument: this game isn't being developed for the disabled, or the debilitated, or the elderly. It's being made because a developer wants to force an FPS onto a tablet, and is trying desperately to come up with a control scheme that works.

You can't say you've never overanalyzed something just for the sake of the argument.

Well... no, they're not the same. But they can certainly still achieve the same results in their accomplishments, regardless of if they lost it or never had it to begin with. So my argument is quite valid, thank you very much.

I highly doubt that the advancements and hurdles lept over by the pioneers of film and art even remotely compare to a game developer trying to squeeze limited FPS controls onto a touchscreen device. You're going to quite an extreme there.

LOL, so wait... my talking about this girl and calling her one of the most talented and admirable people I'd ever met means that that we weren't friends, simply because I didn't specify that part. And my lack of a detailed description of how she drew and played games without hands obviously means she doesn't really

So... you'll have day-one access to the entire Android library... the vast majority of which are cheap cash-in clones or free-to-play apps, and were not programmed to be played on an HDTV or with anything other than the device's touchscreen, so they will look awful and not be playable with the proper controller that

After so many articles about Final Fantasy sequels, the writers tend to go a little Jim-crackin' looney.

The Kinect.

I knew a girl at art school who was one of the most talented cartoonists I'd ever met. She was a hardcore gamer, had beaten the first two Kingdom Hearts games, and played Soul Calibur and Smash Brothers competitively.

The difference between mobile gaming and literally every example you gave as a counterpoint: those all have physical, tactile buttons. Above everything else, that is a cardinal rule of game design that you just can't get away from. People need to feel where the buttons are in order to press them accurately. Try

I remember that! I got all happy when I finally got my floating Dreamcast. Damn I miss that game.

Pretty soon we're going to have a Pokemon game where the playable trainer, bosses, and all NPC's encountered in the game are just highly-evolved Eevees. The "Pokemon" you capture and raise are actually the human characters from previous games, having lost the evolutionary game and forced to live off the land in the

A developer having to jump through multiple problem-solving hurdles in order to come up with an experimental, plausibly-functional control scheme, rather than spending that time developing what could be a better game on a platform that already has an established control method (i.e. consoles or PC's, or literally

With motion, yes.

What? No floating Kingdom of Zeal?

"DESTINY, the newest adventure title from Bungie! It's a first-person action title where the main character, EXPERT CAPTAIN, is a lone soldier sent up to investigate a giant alien object called the OVAL..."

More like Aliens: COLONIC Marines, cuz the game is one big stream of...

Looks like it's time to move that preorder cash to something better. Same thing with the Colonial Marines Wii U version; after reading those reviews, I'm glad the Wii U version was delayed. Gives me a chance to redirect.

So... doesn't it stand to reason the Joker does too, then? Or that would probably be too convenient of a resurrection for him, huh.

More like Aliens: Colonic Marines. See, cuz the game is... yeeeaaaaahh...
