You should still probably play it though.

I, for one, don't have any service charges. Not monthly, per swipe or anything. Only charge I get is for withdrawing from an ATM not owned by my bank.

WEED AND SKRILLEX, BRO! WEED AND SKRILLEX!

I like Yahtzee, but he's just doing the same thing he always does, which is his job. As someone who's writing for a young start-up website, I rather this article be about the little guys overcoming their plights, even if only because of strokes of luck in some cases. They're feel-good stories. I like that.

Is there something wrong with gaming on WiFi? I'm sure an Ethernet connection would be stronger, but my WiFi connection has always been pretty strong when playing Dark Souls.

Pointing out you'll get attacked for voicing an opinion doesn't count as qualifying it; rather, you leaped over the qualification stage by painting yourself as an underdog ("I know I'll get attacked for that"), thus establishing a bit of pathos, which for some is enough to lend you a bit of confidence. It's a shallow…

I think you have a very loose definition of satire. And sarcasm can be construed accurately if the comment is written properly to that effect. Yours wasn't. Yours looked like a genuine quip rather than a sarcastic one.

I agree, but I think we give these "critics" too much leeway. I don't want any sort of regulation, but part of establishing cultural standards is just through person-to-person interactions. So when I see people flinging overcritical filth at people whose crimes hardly fit the punishment, I do my part by letting them…

I haven't seen any indication that they've neglected the main market. They apparently had more Xbox Ones still in stock at Walmart and Target on Black Friday than Sony had PS4s, although the PS4 had more demand in NA at launch than the XB1 did.

Digital Rights Management is a broader concept than some people realize and is more common than they'd expect. Even an early cartidge working exclusively with one console is an example of DRM. Sony, Microsoft, Nintendo and Valve all use DRM in some form. It's when that DRM impedes consumer expectations that it people…

Both companies claimed to have sold over one-million units in the first twenty-four hours, but Microsoft launched globally while the PS4 was initially just available in NA. I have no doubt that there are fewer XBOs available in the US.

I 'unno, the in-game stats sound more like light, "Did you know?" sort of figures than something they're really trying to pass off as impressive. In any case, it's not a big deal. Maybe tone down the cynicisim a little.

It's important to get both perspectives. I haven't played Panzer Dragoon, so I'd be going in as blindly as Patricia did. In my case, I want to know how the game stacks up on its own merits, regardless of how it compares to series predecessors, which I probably won't ever get around to playing.

"And any time there are more than two combatants involved you'll see the limitations of the fighting system. AI fighters still hang around waiting for the user to finish his attack (or finish being attacked) rather than battling each other."

This comes from a cheap work-around Yukes implemented first in WWE '13 to…

Capcom can copyright music, names, code, graphics and a slew of other things, but they can't copyright an idea or, specifically for this case, a type of game.

They barely commented on the game itself. They reported that PLAYERS had complained about congestion issues and gave a simple caveat for high expectations based on the high sales. It's only been four days since launch and I'm sure the staff has other responsibilities.

Looking at the comments, I'm tired of this very nasty habit we have of countering every positive claim with a presumed negative as if corporations and the executives therein only operate on one level. I get the corporate villain is a popularly lampooned image these days, but realistically, how can we reduce any person…

I think, when pressed, you'd concede — and make a note to mention that you'd never meant to intend otherwise — that of course there is a bevy of contrary examples of gamers who are thoughtful intellectuals whose criticisms acknowledge possible experiential variance and who prefer to articulate their own experiences…

• Although I follow a lot of LPers, I won't be too broken up if it becomes a dying "business" (for those handful of LPers who actually pull in a respectable income) because of anyone being able to share footage. I think that could open up more cooperative experiences and sort of online living room experiences, just in…

Did you read the article? It sounds like they intend on organizing their marketplace the same way Google Play or any other digital distributor with self-published content does. If you still can't find good content, you're probably not very good at navigating menus. Regardless, if you're as plugged into the Internet as…
