I know, terrible right?

The console's October update doesn't perfect the Xbox One. But, 11 months into the machine's existence, it finally sees the Xbox One using its unusual architecture to do things that significantly improve the gaming experience on the Microsoft console in ways not seen on the rival PlayStation 4 and Wii U.

It took your mom several minutes because she was going back and forth on whether or not to say "wars" or "trek."

Much of the world is actually far ahead of the US when it comes to internet access. Japan included.

The whole "free of charge" bit kind of confuses me. I was fully expecting hefty price tags for pool and toddler DLCs

Wash day tomorrow... nothing clean, right?

1080p is not impossible on the Wii U. To do 1080p you need 16MB frame buffer, the Wii U has over 32MB available as fast RAM.

CPU cores and loud fans don't make games automatically more fun. I wish more people realized this fact.

The Wii U is more similar in architecture to the XB360, so devs used to the 360 probably have an easier time wrapping their heads around the Wii U than they do the PS3.

Wind Waker HD isn't "nice," it's fuckin' fantastic!

Same here. I considered a PS4, but came to the realization that all the games and types of games that interested me for the PS4 and Xbox One were also on PC. Only the Wii has truly compelling games and exclusives. Plus, off-topic play is a must, as I can't always monopolize the TV with a wife and kids.

There was lag. You can't avoid lag across the internet, regardless of what kind of protocols you use. I bet there was at the very minimum about 50-100ms of lag.

Wait... people still expect online games to work flawlessly at launch without server crashes, disconnects and/or lag?

I would have been killed by this thing. I would have been laughing too hard to move out of the way.

White girl hurt! Team WhiteKnight ASSEMBLE!

The only problem being that windows are rarely ever held into place by a man. The guy's thrashing sure makes a lot of noise, but most of the impact is being absorbed by his red sweater-wearing assistant.
