Computer Vision Syndrome is a catchall phrase, used to describe any issues stemming from computer use - the incomplete study you linked specifically states that most cases are simply complaints of dry eyes, and that the researchers haven't even defined whether or not it has to do with the individual's eyes, or with…

I loved looking at Nintendo booklet art as a child - the drawings gave my imagination just a little bit more fuel, which was a welcome accompaniment to 8 - 16 bit material. I'm happy they're continuing the tradition, and any excuse to make the WIIU gamepad feel relevant or functional is welcome.

Dude! I thought I was totally making that up! That's awesome!

Forgive me for interrupting your lecture - in my defense, I honestly thought you were just farting on your keyboard. I like you.

What!? Innocence (by definition "a lack of experience") cannot inform an opinion - that's why young children blindly support the same political parties as their parents, and have the same religious beliefs, and repeat the exact same phrases that they learn from their parents. While their opinions can be super cute,…

"someone who wasn't burn with a mental incapacity"

Riiiight. You just keep on defending that 8 year old's opinion, buddy.

He can upload his logo to Zazzle as part of his origin story.

Am I the only one hoping for a Superman T-shirt and a pair of Levis? Maybe some Frye boots - those are American made.

Vaer: Burn fail. Continue?

Hint: make sure you're more articulate than the average 5th grader before you attempt to school an adult.

"We would like to do a new Bravely Default every year, and we've actually already announced Bravely Second in Japan, and hope to be releasing it this year," Asano said. "But I do believe that Bravely Default will continue to evolve in its own direction. It may return some of the world feel, for example, the crystals…

Polyamorous relationships create a mountain of complex and uninteresting data which is difficult to program into a video game. I think we don’t see many polyamorous narratives, simply because polyamorous relationships lack emotional impact from a narrative standpoint – any sense of romance is lost when destined lovers…

Take a sedative. Differing opinions on video games shouldn't make you irritable and defensive.

Sure, there were rules that dictated targets, but that's not the same as being able to choose your target. In my opinion, there was no sense of a personalized, efficient, or tactical playing style (inability to choose a target was especially frustrating when applying buffs to party members). Also, it felt like a slog,…

Can you actually choose your target in battle in this game, or does every character attack a random target like they did in 4 Heroes of Light?

Please, don't enable Nomura - hasn't he drunk enough paint, and drawn enough belts for you people!?

It seems like most art school graduates are more captivated by other people's creations than they are with actually creating new things. In combining two existing things, artists may feel as though they are creating something "new," and while crossover pieces can be technically impressive, I see most as a waste of…

Studies show that anonymity increases unethical behavior, so you're more likely to encounter poor behavior on the internet. I can't think of a single creative industry that doesn't receive irrationally generated hateful feedback. Many author's don't read their reviews. I dare say you'd be better off gauging the value…

On occasion, a final product lives up to its concept art in the movie world, but this rarely happens in the gaming world, especially where first person shooters are concerned. Unless they throw in completely new RPG elements, there will be no reason to explore a city in single player mode, and the Halo "story" is so…

Fascinating? Perhaps, if you're a preteen girl, but the only words a grown man should use to describe a Warcraft-Disney Princess mashup are "unsurprising," and "extraneous."

I was able to create an NNID and download the Wii Transfer Tool, twice (Wii & Wii U), from the Wii Store, early this morning. Still experienced interruptions as the rest of the Eastern seaboard stirred. Quite annoyed by the fact that you can't do, well, anything at all, without the NNID.
