Based on what I'm seeing here I'm inclined to agree with you. There was a certain grittiness to the graphics that made the original version seem more organic.

Yeah that is good to know. Your best bet is to load the tracks up into a good DAW. I don't know much about Audiotool but if it has some decent tools you can probably get a more fuller sound out of it.

Have you tried Catherine or Fez? They were really refreshing games to me.

I live in the south. Sometimes I hear commercials for Acura and they pronounce it "Ac-urr-a".

The basics of audio production.. imo if you want to do it right, focus initially on song structure, composition techniques, and sound creation. Listen to your music on as many devices as you can. Be mindful of the genre rat-race. Be critical. Be original. Be human.

Looks pretty interesting, thanks for the link. We seem to be on the same page. I'll give it a more thorough read when I have some time.

Critical thinking.. now that is a skill that the public needs to work on as a whole..

Right with you there. Instead of being concerned with the validity of beliefs, I think we should be mindful of identifying beliefs versus facts. Too often do I see political ideas and arguments propagate that stem from emotional belief-based arguments as opposed to more rigorous factual evidence and conclusions. It's…

To me adventure time stays true to the comic absurdity that made the 90's cartoons so great. How exactly does it rub you the wrong way?

I think they were going for a serious battle-ready facial expression.. but to me she just looks vaguely confused.

Definitely. If everybody could just agree that we are all idiots in certain regards, perhaps we would all get along better. Understanding what you don't know is just as important as what you know.

You've never seen somebody take a 12 gauge jaw breaker bubblegun to the face? True horror.

Sounds like you don't quite understand art.

Why do you have to remind me :(

Facts are just beliefs with empirical support.

You are right, the general public has a very poor conception of what science actually is. Adding the word "science" to sentences seems to be the new way that people attempt to magically make themselves look more right in discourse, especially if it is on the subject of non-scientific things.

Yeah that's the truth. As scummy as it is, it works.

What's amazing to me is they seem to be describing the problem with men being sexist, ignorant, horrible people while simultaneously demonstrating the very behavior they despise.

Hitman. Tomb Raider. Such controversy surrounding the recent promotions of these games. Despite the apologies I think we all know that the people in charge of marketing knew exactly what releasing said content would do: rile up a predictably vocal group of people in protest of the material, and effectively create even…

Nahhhh I'm sure you are actually a fairly bright person. I mean, you are on io9 after all.
