Studio Ghibli + solid, somewhat old-school JRPG makes this the one game that makes me wish I had a PS3.

I agree on all of your points. I never finished most of the NES games I had for two major reasons: first, finishing a game in a single sitting might mean playing for 3 to 6 hours, and I only had an hour and a half at maximum. If I couldn't save my progress, I couldn't finish. Twice I actually had enough time to play…

There are whole games aimed at inexperienced gamers. There have been since the 80s. Controls are simplified, penalties for failure are low are nonexistant, and quick reflexes are not required. They're great introductions to the medium, and people who play them often have a much easier time adjusting to higher…

Interesting. I don't think I've ever seen a failure to play video games all day described as a sign of....uh....laziness.

Yeah, my biggest concern with a diet like this one is whether he's got a nutritionist on the sideline making sure he takes in enough nutrients, so he doesn't come down with something bizarre like scurvy or an iodine deficiency. When someone loses a lot of weight at once it's also difficult not to bounce right back as…

Oh? I had the opposite experience. I was about the only kid my age who actually liked Mario 2. Everyone else I knew thought it was okay but kind of disappointing. Then Mario 3 came out and even I admitted it was a much better sequel.

But....it IS a blatant rip-off.

Aha! You see? None of them have beards either! It's a proven weight-loss technique!

Coulton should come out with one of these cover-of-a-Glee-covers once a week, until he's done their whole catalog, copying every element of the Glee performance. Except that would be a monumental waste of time, and if I understand the legalities right he'd still have to pay the *original* artist a small fee.

Cool.

So he's lost 25 pounds, and then he shaved his beard. Man. Losing 50 pounds in a month is pretty impressive.

I think there's a question as to whether he would've even driven in his mother's car in the first place if he didn't have access to a weapon.

I dunno, it doesn't look completely ______.

Possibly accurate.

Yes, but determining what is and isn't a right is generally a matter for courts to decide, not me. I'm not a lawyer. I shouldn't have to shuffle through a EULA I'm about to sign, trying to figure out whether or not parts of it would hold up in court.

The big problem with EULAs is they're too complicated. Every time we install a game or use an online service we're signing a EULA that's often pages long and filled with legalese. I don't know anyone who reads every word in the thing, and I suspect most of us don't even skim it. Yet EA is sticking things in their…

Quirk's exception says it won't matter much, since I invoked it deliberately, but you never know...

You know who else liked using association fallacies? HITLER.

Probably the music would be pretty good, too.
