Hey Kevin, just curious — how old are you? The tank-like mechanics you describe for the space battles use the same control scheme as Atari Combat as well as Sega’s Star Trek Space Operations Simulator, both of which were formative for those of us of a certain age. Confusing? Not to me!

I'm so glad the PC version of Rogue Squadron finally appeared on GOG, since it was seemingly lost forever and Nintendo isn't doing it on handhelds. I'm somewhat disappointed that game (and several others) haven't been emulated properly, even almost 20 years later.

Blast Corps is unique and fun, and hasn't been seen since it game out in the late 1990s. That's something.

And neither one has the best Rare N64 game, Goldeneye 007, so the whole exercise is kinda moot.

Kinect Party and Just Dance are the main reasons I keep an XBOX 360. That and the fact that they give me “free” games for subscribing to Xbox live. I’m a sucker, I don’t have time to play games, I’m a dad.

“Market conditions” are also killing Konami. These are dangerous times!

You are saying mean things and shouting. If you do not like his price, do not buy from him. That’s the way ladies and gentlemen act in polite company.

My god you’re cynical. What does this “critique” add to the world other than the all-too-obvious “we will see more when we play it?”

Yay, backlash. Verge says it’s worth buying an N3DS for, you guys think it's worse than herpes. Opinions are awesome.

I'd like to know why it's so difficult to get a proper account on the site. I've been banned/dropped/deleted for what seems like very arbitrary reasons (not commenting enough, wrong flavor of email, or more often, unspecified). This treatment makes the GAF a place I usually don't visit unless someone elsewhere links…

Try the GOG version of Dark Forces. I even have it on my iPhone now thanks to iDOS 2.

I'm not surprised at all.

Copyright is broken. Old video games should lapse into the public domain after 15 years if abandoned like this. It's funny that WB be seems to be holding it up, because they and Fox were the ones that literally took almost 50 years to release the old Batman show on DVD. Like NOLF, it's a campy spoofy take on the stuff…

Not everyone has the time or energy for a life-sucking MMO. I want the 12x experience boost full time, because I didn't have the free time to use it while it was available. I want games to be an escape, not another GDMF job.

Yeah, but it doesn't have to be that way. I was hoping SWTOR would break that mold. I honestly don't understand the patch notes about every update because they're in weird MMO speak. I would prefer they recycled all the voice acting into a nice "choose your own adventure" or Telltale style game without the social…

That's what I do. I don't really have space in my life for a slow-paced time-sucking MMO, but I like Star Wars and the look and sounds of the game. I consider the fee like a Patreon for something more fun. Surely I deserve a single player version for all the money I've sunk.

Yeah, this. A thousand times this.

Amen. I've noticed a trend of people hating on "pretentious, wannabe art games" lately. Makes me sad for the species and even less interested in calling myself a "gamer."

I completely agree. And I'm someone who got into OnLive before it imploded. It almost seems like someone is forcing cloud gaming to fail, so they can say they tried.

Average speeds aren't very useful. We need more detail, or at least median scores, to learn anything meaningful from this. BTW my FIOS connection in suburban MD is not bad at all.
