Y'know, I loved Persona 3, 4, and Q. But 5 never really clicked with me. Never finished it. I bought Q2 and never even played it. But as a Musou fan (am I the only one that loved Age of Calamity?) I have to get Strikers, so I guess now's a good time to start over with P5 Royal and actually finish it so I'm caught up.

I put my PS4 in my bedroom to use as a streaming box, and a few nights just watching TV ran down the battery in the controller. And then I don’t want to charge it because the light on the controller is bright as hell when you’re trying to sleep. Plus I have to charge it with an old phone charger because the resting…

I loved Origins and Odyssey, but every time I finish a territory in Valhalla and pledge to another I get a “oh, shit, I gotta do it again” feeling and quit playing for a week.

I think Hasbro had stuff on that ship, too. My Target-exclusive Earthrise Thrust was supposed to be out a month ago, and I just got an email this morning asking me to approve what was the third or fourth delay.

I was only listing exclusives. PS4 kid might already have an Xbox One.

If that kid getting a PS4 never had one, at least he or she’s getting a pretty great library of exclusives- Horizon Zero Dawn, Spider-Man, The Last of Us, Ghost of Tsushima, God of War, Persona 5, Infamous: Second Son, Bloodborne, Uncharted 4...

If game journalists and scalpers are the only people with “next-gen” consoles are the PS4 and Xbox One really the last generation, or still the current one? I know I resorted to picking up Miles Morales on PS4 and AC Valhalla on PC. I’ll probably get Immortals and Cyberpunk on PC, too, and that right there were all…

I can't decide if I should buy this for PC for graphics or Switch for convenience. I think this will look good in 4K with my RTX 2080, like I've been doing with AC Valhalla. But playing Age of Calamity reminds me how easy it is to go between playing on the living room TV, taking my game with my on the can, then…

See, I upgraded from a GTX 970 to an RTX 2080, and I replaced my aging Samsung 1080p TN panel monitor with a 4K LG IPS display, and I gotta say I don’t actually notice a ton of difference. I mean yeah, 4K looks better than 1080p, but not so much over 1440p (which I occasionally drop down to when I’m playing a…

The lack of big exclusives was really the thing. I liked Forza, but I could have lived without it (and then it came to PC, so I don’t have to!). No, the only reason I bought (and haven’t sold) my Xbox One X is because the 360 was my console of choice during the previous generation due to Sony’s missteps with the PS3,…

OK, for the electricians in the audience... the previous owners of my house had a hot tub. They took it with them when they moved, but for the tub they put a sub-breaker in the garage with a 220v line out. Am I ahead of the game if I want to install a Level 2 charger in the garage, or is it going to be roughly the…

Did you insurance cover any of it?  A good friend of mine has MS, and he bought a Braun Ability-converted Dodge Caravan several years ago.  They had to pay the for the Caravan itself, but they got insurance to pay for all of Braun Ability’s conversion.

We really lucked out finding our pediatrician.

I love this.  It sounds like Larian is working hard to account for some of the out-of-the-box thinking that happens sometimes at the table.  Reminds me of the time my DM got a new monster manual back in the 3E days.  The DM was eager to try some of the new variants in the book, so he threw some crystalline trolls at…

Noice. Smort.

Definitely Community. Abed always does it just like that, one “cool” on its own followed by a group of three. Peralta says “cool” multiple times, but in a less consistent fashion and sometimes sprinkled with a few “no doubt”s.

I loved KOTOR and Jade Empire, and Neverwinter Nights is one of my all-time favorites (I’m actually playing through the Enhanced Edition on Steam right now). I was super stoked for DA:O. How could I not be? I actually played through it and the expansion twice, once as a fighter on my own, and then a second time with a…

In video games I usually do my first playthrough as good, because it seems like that’s the default expectation. Now, if there’s no major difference (like, say, doing a no-kill run in Deus Ex vs killing everyone) I’ll leave it at that, but for games where part of the story might be different (like basically every…

This! When I was doing grad school a few years ago it was made explicitly clear that Wikipedia was NOT an acceptable reference. But a Good Wikipedia article will have its own sources, and many of them were just fine to use.

I’ll buy (again) any and all MegaTen games they care to put on Steam.
