More likely he goes home and sleeps from 12 - 7, and a few times a week he stays up till 3 AM.

Cocaine. The answer is cocaine.

For better or for worse, Destiny has become a pop culture fixture. What a strange world we live in.

Part of the fundamental issue involved is how we as a culture frame video games: they’re for fun. It’s an underlying assumption on the part of journalists and many gamers. If you’re playing a game, it needs to feel fun and provoke a sense of enjoyment in you.

The problem with that line of thinking is how it limits…

I heard both files were ~500 MB, and the first of the two patches was only for those who received the game early. If you step into a GameStop (or whatever) tomorrow and take a copy off the shelf, it’ll need one 500 MB patch. Which, by average AAA standards these days, is borderline tolerable!

“Once I started having to opportunity to write about video games for an audience that traditionally doesn’t care about video games and thinks they’re a waste of time—”. Hah, so once your audience is people that have no clue about the subject matter, you can write whatever you like and no one will call you on your BS.…

No Vita release? Looks PERFECT for on the go play. :(

I agree but if you take in to the account the scientific properties of the fairy dust, the mythical demand for women lead super hero movies, magic being really high class technology that we just don’t understand except when it isn’t and how Peter Parker is supposedly at his best rehashing romantic subplots from the…

David Cameron?

While you don’t REALLY need to play 999 to have played Virtue’s Last Reward, it’s really that much more rewarding when a lot of major plot points come up later on. That said, I personally think that knowledge of the previous 2, or at least VLR will need to have been played in order to understand what’s going on. At…

They do! The 3DS and DS both have amazing libraries of games so a 3DS is definitely a good buy.

Yup, DS games work on a 3DS just fine. A little slow to load, but then everything works okay.

yea they do

ah. I see...emulation I guess? that or buy a 3DS.
3DS has a great library of games if you’re into JRPG’s/Nintendo

Yes. It’s definitely required and believe me it’s worth your time. It’s cheap and easy to find either used or new copies so I’d highly recommend picking it up.

I can’t say for sure you’ll not need to know the story of the first game to understand the third, but for VLR there was no need to play the first. Everything you needed to know was explained and wasn’t really necesary in the plot.
