    Twilight Princess's True Form To Be Playable in Hyrule Warriors - Update

    Oh dear god, it's going to be Tingle. Aren't all of Link's costumes 'familiar character[s] from the Zelda series'? What they need to do is start adding some Bayonetta costumes. Turnabout, and all that.

    Microsoft Defends Xbox One Parity Clause: "Xbox Owners Should Feel First-Class"

    This isn't the first time that question has come up. From what I've seen in the past, Microsoft doesn't count pc as a platform. I'm not sure that they even count handhelds. They seem to really just be concerned with competing game systems. Not that that makes Spencer's argument any more...

    Dotcom Claims Email Proof Of NZ PM/Warner Bros. Conspiracy

    Peter Jackson is from New Zealand and most of his movies were filmed there, including Lord of the Rings. If the Prime Minister is willing to risk scandal with something like this I think he'd want a bit more than something he was likely to get anyway. I'm not saying he didn't sell out...

    Chilean Newspaper Lists Shenmue, Okami as Part of "Worst Games of All-Time"

    This is awesome. Thank you for going to the trouble. At the very least I no longer have to feel sick to my stomach thinking that someone who teaches game design thinks "commercial failure" means a game is bad.

    Chilean Newspaper Lists Shenmue, Okami as Part of "Worst Games of All-Time"

    Four of these could potentially be on a top 10 games list. Grim Fandango has no business being on this list either - even if you hate point and click adventure there are plenty of games in that genre worse than Grim Fandango. Is there a translated version of Thomas Cofre's explanation...

    Guise of the Wolf Dev Takes Down Negative YouTube Review - Update 2

    Photoshopped? They really said 'Photoshopped'? If this is the level of technical competence the developers have I don't even need to see a review of their game. If he'd wanted to Total Biscuit could have changed that email in a text editor. But why would he even want to? I would think...

    EA CCO Says SimCity, Battlefield 4 Launches Weren't That Bad

    It sounds like he's saying EA has virtually no involvement in the game. That probably really is the best they can do for anyone.

    Microsoft: PS4 vs. Xbox One 1080p/60fps Differences "Pretty Minor"

    Could it be? Are gaming executives finally beginning to realize that game-play is more important than graphics? Nope. Guess I misread that.

    Hasbro: Transformers Toys to Be Simpler Going Forward

    This simplified version sounds boring and that's both the kid in me and the adult in me speaking. My favorite part of going home from the mall used to be fiddling with the mechanisms required to transform a new Transformer. I'd like to know which of the current toys qualifies as a 1,000 piece...

    Microsoft VP Marc Whitten Isn't Worried About Steam Machines

    You forgot reading and agreeing to the updated terms of service, which you can scroll through at a convenient 2 lines per second; and for some reason agreeing is as simple as clicking a button but if you want to opt out of a clause you'll have to do so in writing sent via physical mail. Edit...

    Kanye West Gets Counter Cease-and-Desist from Coinye Creators

    Well, there's this: "[Kanye West] and his lawyers definitely aren't joking, though, as they've already warned that they could pursue legal action against anyone who uses the currency." Coinye is pretty much writing a written request to be sued, but threatening to sue anyone who uses the...

    Doctor Who Faces Legal Threat From Son of Tardis Creator

    Is this actually considered a children's show in Britain? Most people I know who watch it are well into their 20s or 30s. This guy is doing a lousy job of pretending he's not a complete tool.

    Xbox One Ships Early, Microsoft Bans It

    Unless there's some new leasing contract you have to sign to get an xbox one, he is not leasing the hardware, he owns it. He can chuck it off a cliff if he wants to. If I were to lease a car and drive it off a cliff I'd suddenly owe the leasing company a great deal of money. The leasing...

    Xbox One Ships Early, Microsoft Bans It

    It's not just Microsoft. Anyone who decides to abuse the automatic take down system can do so fairly easily. Total Biscuit put together a video about this problem when his Garry's Incident review got flagged.
