I hate it because it completely shits on what the previous games tried to build, but every bit of constructive criticism I have gets disregarded as the angry rantings of a blind hater or a fucking homophobe. I'll admit that the game itself isn't terrible, it's far from unplayable, but it's...

Spent it with my family doing nothing in particular. Can't imagine a better way.

Standard game prices definitely needs to change, and there have been quite a few discussions on this topic by plenty of respected people in the business, some on this very site. They're simply too expensive for the way game companies have been handling them. They went for the casual market...

Saya no Uta. Most beautiful game I've ever played, but try explaining that to someone without prior knowledge. I tried to write up an example, but it's just impossible. Fedoras never look as good as you think they do, not to mention all the oblivious schmucks who mix them with trench...

At this point I'm looking forward to the bill passing, just to see how badly it fucks up the economy before people realize how big a mistake it was and gets pulled again.

I'm getting a really weird impression from this topic. You seem to be a pretty big fan of the series, but also don't seem very interested in it at the same time. How can you talk about writing a blog about how 'deep' the themes go when just one post earlier you were asking if you could get away...

I just knew this thread was going to be full of shallow, knee-jerk reactions. Yes, shoe-horned multiplayer is one of the many bugbears of the industry, and needs to go away, but that doesn't mean you should dismiss the concept altogether. Believe it or not, multiplayer can actually IMPROVE a...

Hot dogs and vitamin water. Could be worse.

Probably cremated, I don't like the idea of my body taking up more space on this earth after death.

And yet even Dragon Age 2 has a better plot than Skyrim. That, is funny.

First off, watch Season 3, best of the series hands down. And despite the stigma card games have, definitely pick up Digimon Card Battle for the PS1. It's a legitimately great game.

The only game I ever recall making me cry was FFXI. Yes, the online one, is that cheating? Pretty much every friend you make online if eventually going to leave you, if you don't leave first. After a good friend got perma-banned from the game for no reason and our whole group fell apart, that...

I haven't played Skyrim yet, but I've heard absolutely nothing but bad things, mostly regarding the usual shoddy Bethesda programming and crappy PC port. But then, that's about what I expected. I was confused when everyone was so excited for the game, talking it up like the second coming, and...

And if everything dies, there would be no more death. Genius.

I'm the one who plays relationship counselor, but never has a relationship himself.
