That’s not how I read it. I read “beta and launch” as meaning both the beta and the full release, not as any sort of timed exclusive deal. 

What’s cool about the Centipede/Millipede/Missile Command/Crystal Castles cabinet is that those are all trackball games, so the cabinet has a trackball. We’re all used to playing emulated or ported versions with digital controls, but the analog version is a different beast.

Rule of Halves. Whenever a publisher gives you an hour count, half it.

I have one of these. Love it. And I do recommend the voice remote; even though voice itself is a nice-but-inessential feature, the fact that it uses WiFi Direct instead of IR is a night and day difference.

Paying someone to “celebrate” how great your product is certainly sounds like the literal definition of an ad.

“It’s not gambling; we provide the pack odds so you know what might pop up in a pack...” 

I think the fact that ARMS and Pokken have such a mode indicates that there will be a tournament mode. Maybe they won’t release the button combination to access it until a week or so after the game is released, to avoid spoiling some of the new additions, but I’d imagine it’ll be there. And probably pretty simple to

“If I had a time machine, it would not be a tool for bettering the world. It would be a way for me to see how people from the past might react to modern-day weirdness.”

You can’t claim to be the best controller in the world with a d-pad that bad. It was SO BAD. I returned my first two controllers thinking that the d-pads were defective, before realizing that no, that’s actually how they designed it.

It cuts in some animations from the show, so you get the best of both worlds, from what I understand.

The worst part was that at the beginning, we were asked to “stay until the end.” That very clearly leads us to believe that there would be some big announcement at the end... and it ended with the SAME KH3 trailer we saw last night at the Xbox conference.

I’m waiting on the phone version, too. They really went out of their way to make it control poorly with traditional controls.

For those who haven’t played it before, some people may tell you this game is “on rails.” These are people who, like you, haven’t played it before. They are wrong.

Good. Keep delaying Shenmue 3 until it’s what it needs to be. Gives me some time to replay the first two in their HD remakes as well.

They only work with custom firmware. If you don’t want to hack your system, you’re stuck with proprietary.

Fun puzzle, do this again in the future!

The restriction on sale-price games is strange.

First season of Legion is your winner here. Best essentially-one-dollar you’ll spend today.

They tried. All of the carriers (except T-Mobile, I think?) refused, telling them not to worry, it won’t be a problem. It’s safe to say they won’t take that for an answer this year, and have already secured the extra cell coverage.
