I’m a native English and Japanese speaker. I’m an attorney who specializes in international litigation, and particularly linguistic aspects of evidence. I’ve translated 100 page long contracts where every word of the contract needs to match the corresponding legal meaning in the other language.

I usually just go through and backstab all the non-hostile Albinaurics, then deal with the red ones solo. I saw a vid where someone was taking out all the Albinaurics in one fell swoop—using some kinda swirling fire spell or weapon art. Don’t know the name of it, but it was every bit as effective as the Wave of Gold.

It doesn’t matter, Gamers™ tend to complain endlessly but almost always give Nintendo a pass. They can downvote a youtube video all they like, but all Nintendo cares about is how many people bought it, a number which I can guarantee is high enough for Nintendo to keep on Nintendo’n.

They got everyone for a year,…

Tree Branches are infinite, you can just keep shaking the same tree and eventually more will come out, unless there is no place for them to drop, in which case you can pick up the ones you have and keep shaking for more.

Fruit trees take 3 days to regrow their fruit. I know this might seem obvious but I know a lot of…

Team Physical Media! MASH the series isn’t streaming anywhere, but I bought the DVDs so I can watch at my leisure. Also, my DVDs are not effected by societal changes that mean certain episodes won’t be available anywhere (like The Simpsons removing the Michael Jackson episode after Finding Neverland). MASH’s first…

I use to be under the false illusion that I would have my physical copies of my media for the rest of my life, and my digital library was ephemeral and would likely disappear on me eventually.

your brother died in a housefire but thank god your vita was okay! ;)

Wrong Nintendo series, but it still applies. The urge to immediately fire off whichever power-up pops out of those lovely translucent cubes is strong, but you could be throwing away a racing advantage for quick thrill. Are you in first place? Save your turtle shells to shield you from the inevitable attacks from your…

don't know how solid it would be.

The hummer was great but I found using a lawnmower or parasol even more satisfying. Even flinging CDs at the zombies had its highpoint. I think it was the realistic absurdity that got me. It got me thinking that those things may actually work in a Zombie Apocalypse.

N3 did have a lot of enemies but I feel like it couldn't get itself out of being another Dynasty Warriors type game. Dead Rising definitely tried harder to do things differently and more absurdly. Like you said, it opened the game up to a more mainstream audience and still pushed to do more.

I think for me, and probably some other gamers, Dead Rising was one of the first examples of what we could come to expect from this generation of games.

I agree wholeheartedly with this post; I posted this already, but Dead Rising certainly set the bar for zombie apocalypse-type games for its time, pushing the technical limits of the number of objects (in this case, zombies) you can have on-screen at one time for a console game. Although you can argue that similar…

Game: Dead Rising

Dead Rising on the Xbox 360 certainly set the bar for zombie apocalypse-type games for its time, pushing the limits of the number of objects (in this case, zombies) you can have on-screen at one time. Although you can argue that games such as Ninety Nine Nights already did this, it didn't have the mainstream appeal…

The simplest things about a new console can catch your eye—or, in this case, hide from it. The PS4, as you'll see in this video, has the most inconspicuous power button we've ever seen on a console. Bonus: the disc drive in action!
