Why is this spineless? Harada is apparently removing a character in US, sure, but he's also apparently going to be adding a replacement character. A male beefcake for generalization points, but Harada is apparently willing to put in the work to (because of our bitching and moaning) replace a...

If this was really EVERYTHING that they paid for, instead of, say, ubisoft just SAYING that the other content is provided (IE:throwing whatever incompletion they have into DLC)... Why did they cancel sales on the Season Pass at all? Your apologetics are going a bit far now, because there's STILL...

We also don't get to arbitrarily decide what is or isn't a developer's work, for you have it twisted; The developers' work IS the barring of access to the trinkets/abilities from the normal and free game, to be accessed by gems (which are purchased or attained through extra effort in game). It...

Personally, I'd argue that WoW, and really many MMO(RP)G's are not cooperative, despite the title (which doesn't actually state 'cooperative', note). MMO's that are like (or are) WoW have many players (and thus people) in them, but a large chunk of the goals and rewards are personal. 'Grind...

If we can't attribute Cooper's messages to the 'power of love' then the only other aspect that would make sense to explain along for this movie would be a scientific one. Even if you state that gravity was the real force behind all the benevolence, or even just allowing Cooper to be in a...

But how useful is criticism of criticism? Probably selectively as useful as any typical criticism, but I can't seem to ever shake the feeling that criticizing criticism, if you aim to be usefulI say this because you're probably not being paid to write in forums; we're all here for recreation...

It kind of is, because this is splitting hairs on the definition of 'review', just that you adhere to one split end as opposed to some other. It's a contrivance unneeded and largely unrelated to what the piece should try to portray. Also, since people tend to (habitually) infer information, that...

Because the (ideal) status quo in journalism would be the expression of the journalist. You can take the reviewer or leave the reviewer from there; both are valid responses, and it more properly forms the journalists' audience. I'd go as far to say that the reported subject, whether it be...

Something that bugs me about GamerGate is that if say, myself as a neutral/uninterested party discovered something unethical in game journalism, would I end up in contention with GamerGate? The fact that I don't feel I know the answer to this question signifies the tonal issue with the movement...

Sounds like you're pigeonholing the tastes of Bayonetta fans into specificity, perhaps for the sake of your own argument. Keep a suitably open mind, and even if the only video game you liked is Bayonetta 1 (a true fan), or even scratch that; If you're a fan of ONLY AND EXCLUSIVELY action...

Then ignore these people. It's one thing to be sensitive to racial issues, and by no means do they need to they need to be ignored in this day and age; I don't even find most acts of 'political correctness' off-putting. And if you're not being racist, you have no reason to be up in arms. Do not...

No, you don't need the "I'm not racist" portion at all. Assuming this is a conversation/scenario vacuum sealed from racial identity so far, the teller brings race into the receiver's mind then and there. If you just say 'Keep an eye out for Rick....', then that's targeting specifically...

Escapists, PLEASE. No more objective > subjective talk.... It just...doesn't....work.... You're suggesting that 'objective review's' work by: ....and we're NOT going to, with 'subjective' matters cut, argue over the meaning of these 'objective' facets? If we can agree that this is at...

Gamers (over the internet) ARE dead to me. I'm virtually at the conclusion that healthy communication of ideas, feelings and passions doesn't happen exclusively over the internet between users, namely by forum and comment systems. More than my defeatist feelings however, I don't want to...

So...Is it because you get to do MORE 'things to do' in FF 13; perform more nicknacks, a battle system, growth management, etc. that it's more of or qualifies as a game over Gone Home? It's not like you do NOTHING in Gone Home; you clearly walk, you clearly displace select items to the front...
