    Jimquisition: The Adblock Episode

    Pretty much hit the nail on the head of why I use adblock at the places where I use it. Anything that tries to take over my browser gets blocked. Banner ads are fine. Ads like YouTube has are fine. But when you start popping things up when I'm trying to navigate a site or enjoy its content...

    Cliff Bleszinski: "I'll Never Make Another Disc-Based Game"

    Is he going to make ANY games again? Honestly I wish he'd shut up and make a game. What does it matter to me if he's not going to make a disc based game if he isn't making any games anyway?

    What Has Nintendo Done Right Lately?

    "You don't need items A, B and C or to explore such and such a place to get the next tool, all you need is money. And since you lose them when you die, and have to rent them again, the loss of money is one of the few things the game has to threaten you with. But you can avoid this particular...

    Jimquisition: Gamer Entitlement

    My thought to this use of "entitled" as an insult has always been "Yes, I am entitled. When I hand over $60 for a product, I'm entitled to a quality product. And if a company doesn't want to provide a quality product, they are NOT entitled to my money. I'll spend it elsewhere." So yes, go...

    Zero Punctuation: The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds

    Nice take on how people saying Nintendo will have to go third party like SEGA are stupid. Really? Because last time I checked, I'm not forced to use the touch pad to navigate the PS4's UI. And even though the Xbone UI was purposely broken so they could "fix" it with Kinect, you can still...

    Jimquisition: Free To Wait

    So how many gems is it to buy a "Thank god for me" at the end? I neeeeeeeed one! As far as things not being games goes, I think Total Biscuit offered a pretty good view on that: I would be interested to see what you have to say as well, Jim. I do agree that The Walking Dead and...

    The Magic of Old Adventure Games

    I think all of them. Especially 7, which I played a lot when I was younger and about half the time I would find myself unable to finish at the end of the game because I forgot to pick up one single item. Very frustrating. Well, yeah, I suppose that's true. But it's the presentation...

    Jimquisition: Super Ethical Vlogging Climax

    Just gotta nitpick a little, sorry. boogie got an Xbox One early and still ripped it to shreds. Not Francis. boogie. Francis is just a character.

    Update: Fan "Fixes" Mass Effect 3 Ending With A 539-Page Rewrite

    Those were indeed complete bullshit. ME3 had a lot of problems and not all of them were about the ending. These days people like to say "it was a good game, people just bitched about the ending too much", but there was a lot more wrong with the game than just the ending. Although one...

    With Great Power...

    That sounds like a really cool idea. Somebody just needs to remind Rockstar how to actually complete and ship a game properly again so they can get some consumer trust back. If GTA VI, whenever it comes out, isn't a fully completed game with all major bugs removed on day one (for example, my...

    Hewlett Packard Promotes Windows 7 On New PCs

    I have Windows 8.1 and used 8.0 before that and find that a lot of the bitching people have done is just plain wrong. I've seen people saying "Oh Windows 8 sucks because you can't do ______" and most of the time, what they're saying is a flat out lie. Windows 7 and Windows 8 are both really...

    Hardware is Gimmicks

    This so much. I like the Wii U as a console just fine when the games let me use the Pro Controller instead of that big, uncomfortable lump (yes, everyone is different, and no matter how comfortable you think the Gamepad is, I find it uncomfortable) they packaged in with the system. I played...

    Jimquisition: Why So Serious?

    So I went and looked it up and boy I'm glad I did: http://www.destructoid.com/ten-golden-rules-of-online-gaming-64474.phtml Especially the part about Gears of War and shotguns. When Gears 3 came out, man, there was so much bitching about how people weren't just running around playing...

    Zero Punctuation: Killzone: Shadow Fall

    I sure wasn't. Even if they offered a BC PS4, I'd have bought the non BC one and just kept my PS3. Like I already did. BC is nice to go on about a the start of a new generation, but once it gets going and the library for actual games on that new console gets going, nobody tends to care...

    Jimquisition: Early Access

    Wait, so this episode is next week's episode? So where the hell is this week's episode? And what the hell am I going to watch next week?! I love the little touches on how you made this video "crappy" on purpose with shitty lighting, using the camera's mic, wearing a t-shirt instead...
