I love this post. Absolutely. It amazes me how many whiners and dullards are out there sometimes. I say go ahead, enjoy being a goddess – seems like it'd be a waste not to.

What, no rabbit?

Too much Ax-Battler, not enough Tyris Flare.

Well I use the term 'sucker' flippantly, but my point is not that pre-orders are terrible and evil and you have to do it because GameSpot says so.

Except that's not what forcing means. Of course they're going to pitch pre-orders, it is in their interest to do so. But it does not prevent you from saying "no," you can still buy the game later.

That's funny. That looks like it could easily be the launch trailer for a Final Fantasy game I'd actually want to play. What a coincidence!

I hope that feature becomes available as DLC – I've got zero desire for a map or a keychain or a cap or whatever, but the character customization in-game sounds like fun.

No no no it's 28 days later.

These ads are dumb and unrealistic.

The levels of entitlement in these comments are staggering. It strikes me as gross that the very IDEA that there are developers out there making games different from the way *you* want to play them is an affront to your sensibilities. It is ridiculous to me that anybody can even entertain the idea that an industry can…

You know, I don't even blame him if he WAS being condescending. There are scores of gamers out there who think they deserve to have the games they play by any means, and that they should get them the way they want it. Whether that means via a price that they are willing to pay or via piracy, they expect to be able to…

That's silly. Nobody's forcing anybody to pre-order a game, if you're unsure about a game then don't pre-order it! Pre-orders are great for marketing, sure, but they also help publishers and retailers gauge demand for a game, in order to have an easier time handling manufacturing and distribution costs.

Those are the only kind I ever get!

It's a nitpicky thing to seize up on, so grain-of-salt and all that, but this headline is driving me batty. It reads like you saved $21k in ten different ways, which, if true, way to go – also, holy expensive wedding.

This makes me want to play Minecraft.

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeevery mood, you say?

I watched the original video and totally lost it at "Who died and made you Batman? ...was it your parents? If so, I'm very, very sorry."

Some people like 2D fighting games. There is room for every genre. Don't be stupid.

The comments on this story amaze the crap out of me. I sure hope none of these kids ever try to create something for themselves, because they will be in for a rude awakening.

Wow, it took him four months to do that? That's a lot of time and hard work. Maybe if he stretched it out to five months he'd have found time to run a vacuum now and then. Holy crap.
