But I'm talking about market forces as if they're mad gods we must bow down to. The important thing to remember here is that this is a consumer-facing entertainment industry. We, the average gamers, have the power to tell companies what we want. Why else would we be buying and installing these graphics cards in the…

You read my mind.

You could say that she expect more from an intelligent crowd. I really don't see a "weird contrast" as you put it. Why so cynical?

Seriously, the best comic strip of all time.

"Wouldn't it be nice to hop online and be consistently teamed up with pleasant teammates? You know, the kind of people that like working together and going for the objective? Ah, if only."

I have to disagree with one example you gave to support your argument: COD sucks. Not because it gets the fundamentals wrong, but because it hasn't tried much meaningful variation since 2007. More to the point, because it is a AAA title it gets a different set of criteria than if it plays fundamentally well or not.

DAT SNEAKING SUIT

Sold.

I've played the same 30 minutes of Amnesia and I love it every time. I've attempted to get past it, but... I can't! I'll be more than happy to continuously play the first 30 minutes of this game was well.

Damn, it's like you completely missed the point.

As someone who admittedly was completely applauded with the Xbox1, I think gaming lost out because for the first time in gaming history we had two gamings consoles that has extremely contrasting experiences. Essentially, Microsoft removing the features that made Xbox1 so radically different than the last generation of…

Except the way Steam and Xbox1 function are not exactly the same. Perhaps in principle I can agree, but steam doesn't require the obtrusive, anti-consumer policies XB1 did.

That G700 mouse is excellent. Highly recommend.

Is it just me or am I the only one the feels a FFVII vibe from this game?

It has nothing to do with the story or ascetics, but something about the games carries the weight and importance of FFVII and what it mean not just for JPRG but for the entire genre.

I feel (I say feel, b/c I have no legit reasons) as if Final…

Are you serious? Was that seriously in the old, original cartoon?

TKO?

Clear KO.

It's a wrap.

People bitched about the PS3 price because it was expense. It seems MS hasn't learned anything for that experience. I think that is the point.

No offense, but I think Jonathan Blow is taking things out of context. I've used that exact same expression to both men and women during a heated exchange during a fighting game, without being labeled sexist or worse. Mostly because the comment isn't directed at the person's sex, it's at the action of the moment.

You,…

COD is dead in the water compared to BF4 and Titanfall.

OH! That moment was so delicious!
