“For now, we’ll have to wait for an updated unit.” Ever get one? 

So, Yamatai island or not? is what I’m left wondering. Hope this is good.

haha, right? From the get-go I was like, “if it’s so cold up there, how come no one is wearing a winter hat?” seriously, they should be dressed like they are in the coldest parts of Russia, Siberia, Antarctica, etc.... nope, just hanging out outside all the damn time w/o hats or scarves for that matter. just open fur…

Honestly, the competitive scene ironically ruined the series while simultaneously keeping it alive...

Whelp, I WAS looking forward to this game... now notsomuch.

Forreal, i’ll skim through it at best. Horizon Zero Dawn is pretty guilty of it with loads of TL;DR text in discovered documents. Thankfully the most important ones are in audio & holo diaries. Still, coming from playing Tomb Raider, I loved how that game had all the discovered docs read out loud like an audiobook,…

I think ketchup vs mustard makes more sense. Why vs Mayo? Ha, that’s an & condiment not a vs.

Also, I think “Restaurant to Another World” is my favorite airing right now... then again I also love food :p but really, it’s great! Also, recently gave Knights & Magic a chance, much better than I thought it’d be - also became another favorite! Nice recommendation on Abyss though, wasn’t aware of it, great stuff.…

Sakura Quest is one of the best of the season too, I’ve always loved action but it’s really well done & charming for slice-of-life.

There’s also the second season of that Bahamut anime (Virgin Soul) which is really good, bit different than the awesome first season but great continuation regardless. Underrated series.

Why not just mail-order online? I’d rather wait for a back-order than waste time waiting in line just for a chance. Side-note, these eBay scalpers are B.S., you can technically order & get one anytime - if you are willing to pay that extra markup...

This saying has been around my entire life, are people really only now hearing it for the first time in this game? so weird...

I played Beyond: Two Souls and agree to “delta...” saying it’s underrated. I thought is was fantastic actually, had a firm grip on my attention all the way through and felt it played well. I went back and tried Heavy Rain and ugh.... couldn’t get past the floaty, wobbly, dead fish on legs feel of the main character,…

“...not in an anime mood...” thing is, this was very not anime and much more western style, like all those Marvel/DC super hero animated shows/movies but with blood/gore. (hmm, Metalocalypse? ha) I wasn’t in a western looking animation style mood, wasn’t sure what to expect going into it, felt skeptical yet hopeful,…

What made the originals so special, imho, is that they were technical feats, getting the PS1 to do the seemingly impossible. The making of the series is surprisingly fascinating and makes you realize what they were able to accomplish. I never actually got into the series but have a newfound respect for the developers…

It’s already arrived and in proper form for adults that don’t want to look like gaming teenagers... Look up the ASUS K501UW-NB72. Imagine a Macbook Air but with GTX 960 graphics, and less than a $1,000. https://www.asus.com/Laptops/K501UW/ (this lists a 950, but it’s otherwise basically the same). So it’s not a 1080,…

I can’t help but wonder if the hardware will improve performance, like minimize slow-down, or if everything will run the exact same... If I remember correctly, much of Ghouls n Ghosts was basically like playing in slow motion, for one example. But still neat, esp. including Star Fox 2.

Waiting for either a sale on the new Sony 1080p HDR TVs or someone like oCosmo to come out w/ their own version. That’d be tight.

Awesome article about an awesome game. Was always disappointed the PC Engine version never had a US release but happy that we at least got the Sega CD version (albeit less colors). Never did beat it since I lost my save due to power outage... :( Gotta play it again! :D

I don’t know about this but Xenoblade X you could literally turn off all the on-screen UI elements, and customize it to your liking. That’s why I don’t get why people used that as a criticism of that game - I mostly played w/ just my skell fuel gauge and mini-map. Squarenix might not give us such options though :/
