Really depends on the game. My hands don't sweat playing most games, but particularly action-packed or intense games can do it. Dead Space 2 had me pausing to wipe off my hands every twenty minutes, I had to chain-chug water the whole damn game. From what I've seen of Metal Gear Revengeance, that's gonna do it too.

Probably not. Industry buzz around Wii U is all negative right now, so developers are gunshy. This leads to a bit of a vicious cycle where the Wii U has no games because it's unpopular because there are no games.

Loved the first game. It's a shame this didn't take off, I don't think it ever even made the top ten on the app store.

Only problem is that everyone associated with MSNBC is immediately discredited by the beltway, because MSNBC is widely seen as the liberal Fox. O'Brien would be immediately discounted as another liberal talking head.

"Don't you guys think that Mayer might just be COLLOSSALY KIDDING literally all the time?"

I'm not sure how much of the finished product I'd expect out of an ugly proto like that, but at least they appear to be relatively flat. I'm still hoping Sony has learned their lesson that yes, triggers are supposed to be concave so that your finger can get a grip on them, and the PS3's awful shoulder buttons are a…

They have to be extremely cautious about their level of honesty. Too many "this seems like it might possibly who knows maybe totally suck when it eventually releases***[citation needed]" and they don't get invited to the next preview.

To be fair, the naysayer-y among us predicted doom from the start. A dev window that long is usually a death knell; Dragon Age: Origins being the one exception I can recall.

"I wish Karen the best of luck in reaching level 20 and earning a last name."

PSP is a really awesome console if you absolutely love JRPGs. I personally do not dig them a bit, and as a result my PSP has been sitting in a box in my closet for five years. I probably spent 20 hours playing it grand total.

Actually, since I always full-install 360 games, the install wait is even longer; but of course, then I get really quick loading times.

It's a great console if you're into Japanese games. There are some really good American console exclusives too, like Infamous and Uncharted. Ultimately though, mine ended up a Blu Ray player, because I mostly play American games which are usually designed first for 360 and then ported, and thus almost always have…

Haha, the ultimate troll.

It took about two years to come into its own. By 2008 I bet you changed your tune.

"However, that doesn't mean Japanese people won't make death puns if the console flounders. They will."

It's all about the games. The launch library is pretty sparse, but few recent consoles really come into their own until they've been out a couple years. It's just a question of whether Nintendo is going to have some solid, awesome first-party games (as well as at least a smattering of AAA third-party games) available…

...Which is why female characters always have to be built like supermodels, despite having the strength and dexterity of a 250-pound Marine.

+1. Well done.

The market share is pretty close; the problem is this chart. Most Android users just don't pay for stuff. Low-end users have a tendency to just use the software that's on their phone, and high-end users rootkit and use homebrew stuff (I know I did, I'm pretty sure Minecraft was my one and only purchase). Which is…

Yeah, I haven't played Snoopy's Magic Show or BBCC in probably 20 years but I can still instantly recall their soundtracks.
