Touhou EoSD on Lunatic. (all 3 continues but by god I did it!) And a slew of others but Touhou is definitely the most memorable.

Some middle ground in your poll would be nice. The way I see it is he's "in character" on a portion of the games because honestly that's what we've come to expect, and he's sincere on others. One theory I've had though, is that he tries to find as many games that he believes he will hate as he...

Or you start seeing your friends and strangers as SLinks prospective SLinks, respectively.

Friend of mine turned me on to the Touhou games over Christmas. I started seeing bullet patterns as i was falling asleep, and here's the part where I KNOW I'd had enough: I was was watching the technicolored bullet-hell unfold before me in that half-awake state right before you fall asleep, and...

Not really. He doesn't deter me from buying games. If I think that a game looks interesting I'll give it a try. I can't remember all the times I've pointed the back of my middle finger at the screen and uttered a silent "fuck you" during a ZP review. But in the rare instance there's a game...

Why settle? Get good-quality headphones that are durable and very portable: Audio-Technica ATH-EM7 They're pretty nice. My only complaint is that they leak sound more than I'm usually comfortable with.

Buyer's remorse, my friend. I am an avid FF fan. I was all set to love this game, like I have for its predecessors. I even pre-ordered the game, and payed an extra $30 to get the hard-bound text book of a guide. After all that, I thought it was the weakest installment of all the Numbered...

Why are they continuing this story? Did they not learn from X-2? More appropriately, did they not learn from XIII? Sure it sold well, but that can be attributed to hype and little else. I guess when it come to reviews, Square just puts their hands over their ears and goes...

First paragraph: You, my friend, would love to live in Switzerland. Second paragraph: Perhaps you're right, a revision may be necessary.

What makes you think that if the need ever arose, gun owners here would react differently? Guerrilla tactics are indeed very effective; and there are a large number of civilians and urban areas to hide in and fight from. Most RESPONSIBLE gun-owners have had training with their firearm of...

If this is true, then why can't we stamp out a rag-tag insurgency in the Middle East? They continue to kill more of our troops every day; sure it's not major losses, but we haven't really made any headway in removing them. EDIT: Besides, according to the poll, those against gun regulation are...

Definitely get the Persona games. But start with Persona 3 Portable, not Persona 1. You can play that next. I say this because P3P is a LOOOOOOONNGG-ASS game (or at least its console predecessor was, spent almost 100hrs on it.) Though some have said (and I have to agree) that with the...

tl;dr Well what about older games that are nearly impossible to find these days? Or games for appreciably older consoles? Those would be the only games I would pirate. It's not like I wouldn't pay for them if I had the chance; but sometimes downloading is the only way to get certain games.

Persona4. I was the first of my friends and family to get this game, before this none of them had ever heard of Persona or SMT at all. I discovered it from a small, favorable review in Game Informer and decided to give it a try. To put it concisely, I loved it, my brother and cousins loved it...

Not having actually seen the latest Jason Statham movie I can't be specific with character names. Anyway, Statham's newest sidekick can commonly be seen wearing a cabbie hat in the trailers. Don't know why this bothered me so much but I never really considered a cabbie hat to be badass...
