RIP YouTube Gaming 2015 - 2015

TFA makes the distinction between meteorological fall and astronomical fall. But hey, who cares about RTFA.

Why on earth would I import my 100%-complete-too-many-hours-spent save when I can now experience this masterpiece all over again? To Steam!

Due process is kind of a big deal in our justice system.

Hacker logic: “I don’t care if you engage in a perfectly legal business enterprise! I am the ultimate digital moral authority and I decide what does and does not qualify as socially acceptable!”

A DOX is a DOX regardless of the target and is universally uncool. I for one am glad to see Ashley Madison and it’s child sites perish but this is entirely uncool and the way the tech community is relishing in it is entirely at odds with their “pro-privacy” and “Doxxing is wrong” stance elsewhere.

I am married, I have…

While I have no sympathy for cheaters, it is notable that these sites didn't use email verification. You could sign up with a fake address or sign up somebody else with ease, we did do this to a previous coworker as a prank... He was in charge of our spam filters and did a piss poor job, so we signed him up for a…

trailblazer like its elders.

Pedantry time! They would be, at worst, sociopaths. Most of these people describe some pretty bad stuff happening in their relationships with other people. Abusive parents, bad relationships, lack of success in their work lives. A psychopath has a structural dysfunction in their brains so they can't behave like a…

Yannick made exactly that point on Thursday, actually. http://kotaku.com/league-of-lege…

They’re forgetting, Kickstarter is a grass-roots funding platform, not a pre-order system.

Those were literally the last words of the article though...

You also consider Metroid comics that agree with Other M canon, and have taken Lucas’s retcon of Star Wars at face value. I long ago learned how to deal with your estimation of what does and does not constitute significant narrative development.

How would you intend NASA to spend that funding, though? NASA doesn’t build all its requirements in-house. It doesn’t build rockets. During Apollo over 80% of NASA funding went to contractors, and something like 20,000 different companies and universities were involved. So it’s not like you can point at something like…

Most of the time the launch goes flawlessly. It’s the landing (a totally new thing that nobody has done) that they’re still working on. And to be fair, they’ve gotten really close to sticking the landing, and the last two times it failed, it was for different reasons.

Umm. It’s great that FF7 gets a remake. But what I truly want is a FF8 remake which is a much better game overall in my humble opinion. I guess it depends on how well this FF7 remake sells, before SquareEnix does other remakes of FF6, FF8-12. I still wish there’s a genuine ChronoTrigger II sequel too (with Akira…

I think that both of the following have a significant impact on the current status quo between consumer and “developer” (I will say just developer for ease, but I include everyone involved in the process such as publishers and others aswell).

Sure, I pirate games all the time. I’m also an avid buyer of games, both digital and physical. I have no money issues preventing me from buying EVERY game if that’s what I actually wanted to do.
