That’s a beautiful book right there, and Zelda is the kind of series that seems like it would benefit the most from having a nice, heavy tome in front of you. 

I used to do the same thing with my guides, and it was wonderful. I’d still put down some money for an interesting, well-designed collector’s edition guide for a game that I truly love. 

Oh god, video guides are worthless to me. In the time it takes to skip past the lengthy intros that refuse to get to the point, and jump back and forth until I find what I need, I can hit CTRL+F on a text guide and be done with it.

I liked it enough to get the platinum trophy, but never felt motivated enough to get into the DLC.

That would be really high on my wishlist. Throw in Soul Calibur, Marvel vs Capcom 2 and Dead or Alive 2, and you’d have an amazing collection of fighting games.

What I wouldn’t give for a Dreamcast Classic/Mini. 

I still play my copy of P.T. every now and then, and it’s still amazing. I’ve been a horror fan for decades, and watched/played so many fantastic things that I thought I was immune to the genre.

Oh, I agree that government censorship and self-censorship to please a company’s fickle whims are different beasts, and anybody that tries to bring the first amendment into the argument is a small child that needs to go to school. 

It’s not technically censorship, but for the end user, it still has much the same effect. And sure, Sony is free to make their own rules, but what exactly is wrong with customers expressing their dissatisfaction with those rules?

Just because a company is well within their rights to do something shitty, that doesn’t make it any less shitty. Yes, the best way to get that point across is for customers and developers to take their business elsewhere, but there’s rarely any harm in people voicing their opinions.

Just started playing Death Mark, because I refuse to let Halloween end around here. 

I’m pretty excited for the RPGs and fighting games, as well as some of those weird, early titles that I passed up because I was a child and had no idea what they were: Intelligent Qube, Jumping Flash, Mr. Driller... And it’ll be nice to have another excuse to play Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil and Ridge Racer again.

A person can enjoy fiction while acknowledging that the content is problematic and deeply immoral in real life. I’m very much aware of the gigantic problem in society right now. I simply don’t believe that media causes it. 

Nor is there anything wrong with me thinking that you have a shakier grasp of the difference between fantasy and reality than the people you demonize. Nor is there anything wrong with me wishing that you never get your way in this matter. 

Nope. Neither the original creators, nor the people localizing this game made the choice to remove content from it. That was all Sony’s doing, and was elaborated upon in the article. Do you really not understand what’s going on, or are you just pretending?

I’m locked into “adults should be able to create and play whatever they choose to” in games, thank you. You might not think much of it personally, but you’d be singing a different tune if a businessman took it upon himself to dictate what you’re allowed to -like-. And I guarantee, there are plenty of people out there…

No, the first amendment isn’t under attack. But a businessman is trying to dictate what kind of fiction grown adults are allowed to enjoy or not enjoy in the privacy of their own homes, and that’s kind of shitty. People are well within their rights to take issue with that, even people who have no interest in the…

So basically, as long as you get what you want, everyone else can just fuck off?

With the Switch’s massive popularity, a lot of visual novels are making their way to the console. Though things are changing a bit, Japanese gamers still tend to prefer consoles over PC gaming, so... you know, it makes business sense to put your games on the systems people are playing on, even if it has to be…

Well, I’ll readily admit that I’m a casual fighting game player, so I’m less interested in learning frame data and gaining a competitive advantage on day one. But I can buy a copy of Street Fighter V: Arcade Edition for less than the price of the two season passes that are included. Go back further and you’ll see…
