    Jimquisition: Ubisoft - A Sad History of PC Failures

    Those old tests that required the manual were probably fairly effective. At least until the WWW became popular. Those things were annoying... sucked so bad if you ever lost the manual or w/e other device they managed to come up with.

    Jimquisition: Ubisoft - A Sad History of PC Failures

    God. Any search on Google will show that the argument about the success of their DRM is complete BS.

    Collective Guilt and Beauty in Games

    XIII was quite an enjoyable game, in both form and function, with a style not seen since Comix Zone.

    Why Nobody Has the Time to Make Greenlight Work

    The corkscrew needs to be above 100°C as to cauterize the wound and prevent any infection. Gotta be humane about this, Yahtzee.

    Zero Punctuation: The Elder Scrolls Online - We Can MMO Too

    I always hear that it is awful to play games like this from Australia. Kinda sucks.

    Suikoden II ESRB Rating Could Point to PSN Re-Release

    Absolutely loved this game. Friend of mine had an original copy. It was awesome. He moved away, though, so I had to acquire it via other... methods. Which back then took quite a while on a 24kbps connection.

    The Elder Scrolls Online Review - Levels 1-20

    [Note: I generally had to pay a deposit on an apartment then monthly rent... so I don't think that is an apt comparison] Less of a money grab than a lot of those 'F2P' games, many of which can be considered Pay2Win. Doesn't ESO just offer a horse? And there is no in-game ads telling you to go...

    Escape to the Movies: The Raid 2 - Brutally Intense, Action-Filled, And Very Good

    Whoa. That one guy looks like an Asian Christopher Walken.

    The Elder Scrolls Online Impressions - Levels 1-10

    I've heard about this. Really sucks. I've been using alts to hold items that I won't need immediately. :-(

    Jimquisition: Monetizing Whales For The Retention Of Virality

    Happens a lot when they're discussing topics that others aren't that well versed or opinionated on. Like when Japan comes up, Jesse is all over that. Or Dodger and Love Sims lol And USB drives are great for those times when your bowels are feeling unretentive.

    Escapist News Now: Gauntlet Returns to Steam

    I'm still paying off the bookie that young me borrowed money from for that game.

    The Big Picture: Waterworks - Darren Aronofsky's Noah

    I might check it out. I've been kind of ignoring it, assuming it was another disaster cash-in like Pompeii but with a biblical tone to get more people in, like The Passion. Meh, I'll pay money to watch half-angel giants wreck stuff.

    People Make Games, Not Development Studios

    Wow. I've never thought about this. Maybe I'll start paying attention to the creative leads (closes to director?) more.

    Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster Review - Auron You Glad It's In HD?

    Wish I had a Vita. I would love to go back and replay this. Come to think of it, I may have stopped playing right before the final boss. Always had this bad habit with FF games, where I would get to the end, then go and try to do everything possible and get all the items first. Closest thing...
