    Poll: Have you bought an Amiibo yet?

    I finally caved and bought an Amiibo a couple weeks ago. Most of the stores in my area are sold out to the point of only having Amiibos of Mario characters whenever I looked around to buy. And then at a Gamestop, I found that they had 1 amiibo each of Pac-man and Sonic. I wound up buying Sonic...

    That one song you can't get out of your head.

    "Life is Beautiful" from Deadly Premonition. There's somthing about the whistle in that tune that just sticks with you..... And then E3 rolled around, and I wound up whistling the song for nearly an hour straight after some of the announcements... -_-; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rzvXBFwcyek

    Unpopular Opinions

    Hold on, let me turn on my hipster switch... *click* Ok, here we go..... 1. Despite it being a "Gamer on the internet" thing to hate on David Cage for his obsession with "Emoshuns", I still like his *Fingerquotes* "Games". Mainly Indigo Prophecy/Fahrenheit, Heavy Rain and Beyond: Two...

    Narrative Continuity of Fighting Games is Convoluted, Especially Mortal Kombat X

    I've already passed that point. It was when he spent half his "Honorable/Dishonorable mentions" EP article shitting on Smash 4 based on his "Button masher" fallacy, and claiming people only play Smash out of nostalgia..... Doesn't make me hate Yahtzee, but it's one of those gaming viewpoints...

    How do you play open-world games?

    For Saints Row/GTA-esque games, I tend to go from story mission to story mission, with some occasional wandering around accomplishing side-missions (or in Saints row 4's case, finding clusters). Also because I'm a massive goody two-shoes, I don't get fun out of going "fuck it" and just shooting...

    Zero Punctuation: The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D

    Has Yahtzee ever explained why he never reviews Kingdom Hearts games? Questions about credit gags aside, I'm glad there are at least SOME LoZ games he likes... -_-

    How are you celebrating Eva's 20th anniversary? Japan is sending the Lance of Longinus to the moon.

    As a person who's only read the manga (and some it's spinoffs... *hastily hides volumes of Angelic Days*) and the first 2 Rebuild movies, maybe I'll bite the bullet and finish watching the original series (Stopped around Asuka's debut. Don't remember which episode) and End of Evangelion....

    What was the first video game you ever played?

    Final Fantasy 7 on PS1. I distinctly remember my confusion over the fact that the game had 4 discs..... -_-'

    Zero Punctuation: Dying Light - Yay, More Zombies

    From a performance standpoint, Dying Light has none of the problems that plagued Dead Island and Riptide. That is to say, it doesn't crash, and it doesn't have a tendency to corrupt saves. Gameplay wise, it's combat is roughly the same as Dead Island (Stamina, kicking, breakable weapons...

    Zero Punctuation: Dying Light - Yay, More Zombies

    I think I might be the only person I know who isn't tired of zombies in video games..... and I don't know why... That being said, considering how much Dead Island and Riptide crashed on me and/or fucked up my save file, Dying Light being a more polished Dead Island with some bells and whistles...

    Your favourite game

    Final Fantasy 7 holds a special place in my heart, mainly it was the first game I ever played EVER. But if had to exclude FF7, I'd have to choose between Crisis Core FF7 (I forgot about FF7 until I played this game and it jogged my memory) Bayonetta (Either 1 or 2, for dat crazy...

    Zero Punctuation: Five Nights at Freddys and This War of Mine

    So FNAF is good, but not for you, Yahtzee? Makes sense...... Also, we seem to have the same philosophy when it comes to jump-scares in horror games: wanting the option to either fight back or run like hell from them. A good and funny review, nonetheless. Mental note: Find a way to use the...

    How Long Would It Take You to Play Through Your Steam Games?

    86 games (Give or take some Free to play games I play, like Vindictus and Warframe), and some of them I haven't even started..... Let alone the fact that some of my games are in Genres that I'm kinda... unskilled in (Europa universalis III, Dawn of War, Mark of the Ninja)..... I have a feeling...

    Most Frustrating BOSS Enemies In Games!

    Beezlebub/Belzaboul (SMTIV and Devil Survivor Overlocked). The ONLY time in SMTIV that I had to switch the difficulty was during the sidequest where you have to fight him (Damn you Neutral route and your "Do all the human-aligned sidequests" requirement......) because of how much he spams...

    Console exclusives that would have been great on PC

    We got Metal Gear Rising on PC, so why not some of Platinum's other games? Madworld, Anarchy Reigns, Vanquish, Bayonetta......
