Am I the only one who thinks it's hilarious that athletes and other celebrities who have spent decades dealing with overbearing media and tabloids can't handle 14 year old Twitter trolls?

Portland got robbed.

Are there any multi-platform MMOs that have managed to incorporate smartphones into gameplay?

These are my favorite cars in motorsports by far. I'll take a 600HP Fiesta over a F1 car any day.

I've beaten the original RE probably 15 times and it still makes me jump.

I love obnoxious car colors, but I hate red.

I tend to follow guides most closely for JRPGs. I'm a completionist with those and don't like missing things. Tomb Raider, Bioshock Infinite, and The Last of Us? Little to no guide checking. Persona 4 Golden? I'm following walkthroughs.

I'm not trying to open up the PC vs console debate. I prefer most games on consoles.

There's a bajillion freemium games out there that are almost exactly the same. The only thing that makes a Final Fantasy freemium game stand out is if you're a fan of the series already. AAA games create fans, not crappy freemium games.

AAA games drive brand loyalty, which drive these freemium games. Final Fantasy: All the Bravest is nothing without the real FF games. The uninitiated are more likely to be drawn in by Final Fantasy XV than by a shitty mobile game.

Halo's biggest downfall, and it's a huge one, is that it's console based. As a result, it's about half the speed of Quake.

Things went to shit when they started computer-animating everything. I'm also assuming that, 20-30 years ago, it was common for an art director to be able to dictate the style. Now it looks homogenous and focus-grouped.

Worse. A thousand times worse.

Quake III was re-released as a free to play browser-based game called Quake Live.

JRPGs have a pretty limited appeal. They require lots of time, usually lots of reading, and they're usually too "cartoony" for most gamers.

"Freemium" games are too profitable for big game companies to ignore. Yeah, they sell the souls of classic franchises for some profit, but they need something to subsidize the AAA titles. There's still a market for big-budget JRPGs, it's just too difficult for smaller companies to release something with the same level

I know for a fact that the blue thing is true for Japan. Blue sky = environmentally friendly (hence Mazda SkyActiv).

CAFE is to blame too. We have an unnecessarily large piece of regulation based on trying to improve fuel economy standards...that incentivizes moving from mid/full-size sedans and wagons to large SUVs, crossovers, and pickups. MPG isn't even a linear measure and it's what the whole thing relies on.

It seems like most of the world uses "blue" as their environmentally friendly color. I know Germany and Japan do. With cars, blue makes the most sense. Environmentally friendly cars release less pollution into the air, so blue sky.

By far the biggest disappointment with the PSP/Vita has been the reluctance to translate non-established Japanese series' here. If it hasn't been done before, or doesn't have a PS2/PS3 counterpart, it just doesn't get translated. Frustrating.
