    Only a Tiny Number of Monument Valley Android Installs Were Paid For

    I would like to mention that this game was free on Amazon's free app of the day a while ago. I don't know whether they are counting those as paid installs, but that was how I picked it up, because the only thing I knew about it was that it was nominated during the Game Awards. EDIT: they...

    Jimquisition: Desensitized to Violence

    That's very insightful, and your probably right, it's the second reaction that matters and I didn't get that, not here. I don't know why I didn't get a second reaction, maybe it was because it happened already, perhaps I was too busy wondering why he did it (Jim didn't explain this, but when I...

    Jimquisition: Desensitized to Violence

    I felt the same way actually, "That's it?" I was quite surprised by how little I felt when I saw the video, I was expecting something so much worse. I consider myself a (real life) pacifist and dislike violence, and in fact find very little/no enjoyment in ultra-violent games. Yet I didn't...

    Okami HD

    I very whole-heartedly agree. When I first got the game I couldn't figure out how to attack (I was admittedly just flailing the wii-mote). Eventually I learned to time my swings. I would definitely want a button for attacking in the HD version.

    Okami HD

    Finally, a decent reason to get PSMove. I got to see it for the first time when a friend got it for his birthday, I thought it was awesome. When it came out for the Wii I got it then and have loved it, also have Okamiden. I definitely prefer painting with motion controls so I will probably...

    You Are Probably Using Google Chrome to Read This

    Funny thing is that I normally do use chrome (and I am currently posting this via chrome), but at the time I read this my computer was refusing to run and I was instead using my PS3's web browser. Funny how that works out huh.

    Poll: advice as to what PSP game should i get

    Final Fantasy Dissidia Duodecim (several changes to the fighting system and contains the entire "plot" of the first game). I very unique fighting game which I best describe to everyone as "Flashy, Sparkle, Magic, Sword Fight", in more explanatory terms, a playable version of the fancy fights...

    Your Steam Graveyard

    Oblivion and Fallout 3 GOTY, same problem with both. Start game, open launcher, play game, black screen (though oblivion will show opening credits), start task manager and end tasks so I can get my computer back. Concern over this causd me to worry about skyrim, but that works fine, as does...

    Steam Trades

    Portal 2 Brian Spencers's Hacker Evolution: Untold, I tried to play the demo but it won't do anything after the black screen with "I can change the future, but I wish I could change the past.", so gonna use it. 50% off Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee 50% off SpaceChem, which is awesome and I bought...

    JRPGs turn based or real time?

    Tales series is in a class all it's own, it isn't fair to compare anything to it. A niche series that gets remakes every 3 years.... The Disgaea series is unpopular by no means, though you are correct that the price will drop fairly quickly. A remake for #3 has been announced and it was...

    PS3 v 360 exclusives 2012

    Recent release date for Tales of Graces F at 3/13/12. If you like JRPGs you really need to play the tales series, or if you don't like turn based combat you should play it. I personally use my computer, but my progression went like this: Pc->GBA->Gamecube->Wii->Xbox360->Ps3+psp->Pc. Only...

    Nintendo: Zelda's Motion Controls Here to Stay

    YAAAAY. I really do love the motion controls in Skyward Sword and Twilight princess. The motion controlled sword adds an extra dimension to combat and pointing to aim makes it faster. I do have a few problems that I'm hoping will be fixed: Sword control isn't 1-to-1- It works well, but the...
