    Electronic Arts: Greed Is Not the Problem

    I very much enjoyed your article, Mr. Young. It really encapsulated everything I feel about EA; specifically, that EA really has no idea how to run a game corporation and just randomly flails about, relying on accumulated IP. I do wonder if some of the differences between the two...

    Grand Theft Auto V Gameplay Trailer Debuts

    Wow.....just wow. O.O I'm not sure how much of it will play out to expectations, but if even half of that stuff is doable and fun, it'll be an amazing game.

    Xbox One Wants You To Input One

    Well, that's interesting. I haven't had a TV with an input 1 in years. But of course, the marketing is not targeted at hardcore gamers. The target market is a more casual, mainstream audience-who *do* make up the majority of MS's consumer base. Also, it's targeted at an audience aged I'd say...

    Jimquisition: Xbox One out of Ten

    Normally, I play devil's advocate for the companies, because usually I feel like people expect what are actually unreasonable things from them. But in this case, wow. This just sucks. It's not even a game console anymore. Why should I even buy it? The worst part about this for me (and...

    Update: Xbox One To Take Cut With Every Pre-Owned Sale

    So wait. I won't be able to lend games to my friends anymore? NOPE NopE NOPE! 7

    If Fallout 4 takes place on the East Coast again, what would you like to see done.

    I'd quite like to see Boston and interact with the Commonwealth and the Institute. We had a dose of silly sci-fi with Old World Blues (which I loved) but I'd like to see a more serious tone with the Institute. Baltimore would also be cool. ^_^

    Bioware Working on a New IP

    I am cautiously optimistic. I'd really like to see what it ends up being, as it will be the first brand new IP from BioWare in some time. Since 2009, I believe. I've really enjoyed most of BioWare's games in the past, especially the Mass Effect series, despite its serious flaws. But only...

    New Pope to be elected after this month

    You are quite right. There's also a lot of fear that modernizing will destory the core beliefs of the Catholic Church, which quite frankly I think is nonsense, considering most of the supposed "core" beliefs are nothing of the sort. For example, religious celibacy has only been a thing for...

    New Pope to be elected after this month

    I *am* actually a practicing Catholic. And it's certainly interesting. There are some rules on retiring as a Pope, namely that it has to be done free of coercion and be properly documented, but other than that, there's nothing saying you can't. Largely, I'm unmoved by the event, though I...

    No Right Answer: Best Star Trek Captain Ever

    The answer, of course, is Picard.

    Obsidian Teases a New RPG

    Ooh, intriguing. I wonder what the fatal flaw will be this time. Mind you, still interested, just wondering.

    EA Turns Its Back on Single-Player Games

    I...I...I don't even. I usual post to defend corporations, but the complete abandonment of the purely single-player experience? This seems.....foolish. I mean, even in this day and age, not everyone has an internet connection. Even more don't have the proper high-speed connection online...

    So what is the advantage of a console?

    Well, you said it right there: simplicity. Now I game on both XBox 360 and my beloved monolith, but I tell ya, figuring out how to upgrade video cards, processors, motherboards, downloading the right patches, dealing with a keyboard and mouse for a ton of games (e.g. Mass Effect, Assassin's...
