Alternate title:

Oh hey, Theon Greyjoy shaved and dyed his hair blonde. Does this Link burn children with Din's Fire?

Hm? No - one of the theories of Badass erasure is from split-screen sessions. Another is backing out into the main menu rather than quitting the game from the character menu.

I know, right? It's a bummer having physical company.

PS3. I lost nearly 14k in Badass Ranks, and countless heads & skins (with no ability to reacquire some). Level 50 Siren, Level 50 Commando.

As long as it isn't split-screen. That may prompt glitches.

I hope her treasures includes a Badass Rank glitch fix and a playthrough 2.5 glitch fix. My primary character is rendered all-but-unplayable in a challengeless mode where enemies and loot don't scale to 50 and the heads I grinded out for hours are gone. But hey, had I not encountered those glitches I never would've…

ACIII three weeks in advance? Congrats. And yeah, there's not really a whole lotta time for anything else.

That parasitic wasp most certainly contains dino DNA! Get it, John Hammond!

While we have a discussion going, I play(ed) on the PS3 version - lost my ~13k Badass Ranks & some pretty rare skins (which are still enabled, but I can now never take them off). Things I did differently around the time it occurred: 1) Exited out to the main menu (I'd always just shut off my console from the character…

I never did anything sketchy, lost my ranks and skins and keys.

This article reminds me how stoked I am to play Ni No Kuni this January.

At the risk of sounding like an analingus enthusiast, it's time to eat a whole lotta starfish.

Here's hoping someone releases a Halloween mask of my Borderlands 2 game saves without the playthrough 2.5 bug or Badass Rank reset glitch. :*(

"Homing Breath of Terramorphous" is fun. Seeks out an enemy and then belches plumes of flame from the earth.

Love these games (though none have come close to Square's Super Mario RPG). The only thing that bothers me about them is that when you begin the game, you're dealing 2-3 damage per attack, and when you end the game with the best gear and equipment, you're dealing 7-9 damage per attack. Next Paper Mario should have a…

In a box inside your house? Usually it's on my bed, to let me know I've somehow wronged its lifestyle of hiding all day, screeching all night, and scratching out my eyes if I attempt to give it love or water, the building blocks of life. It's like living with Edward Scissorhands if he were an enormous douchebag…

I really hope this makes a console transition (even with full retail release if necessary - I'll pay full price). I enjoyed the first much more on the 360 than my PC.

Some new combatants for PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale is my main draw. Here's hoping for Wander and Ico & Yorda. Anything else is just gravy.

Panzer Dragoon Orta is the single best game on the original XBOX, and I highly recommend picking it up (I believe it's available for download on XBLA - I may be mistaken). It's beautiful. It has all the haunting soundtrack highs with colorful visual flourishes (an incredible color palate), and desolate, desperate…
