Hey I replied! ;v;

But as I said in the thread, I think it’ll be very much what one would expect MLP to be. A show for little girls. I don’t really see it having the broad appeal as FiM. But I think for the target demographic it’ll probably be a decent (or maybe even good) show.

Also, a build a bear Applejack you say? I’ve never been tempted…[Read more]

At this point? Lego City is the only game I would consider a “must have”. I know some people might say Zombi U; but personally I though it looked rather dull.

Funny that i just bought the first RCT off of Gog a few weeks ago. I have never played any of the other ones; but I’ve always loved the first.

Devices spying on you is hardly anything new. Just look at advertising on the internet. One minute you’re looking at a new pair of shoes, the next every website you go to has ads for shoes. Facebook makes recommendations based on things you’ve liked, so does youtube. Twitter has suggested so many turbos that I might want to follow, most likely…[Read more]

So how come nobody is complaining about the fact that Steam doesn’t allow for the purchase of used games, or lending games? Is it simply because it is digital and not physical? Once you buy a game on Steam, you’re stuck with it. You can’t resell it. You can’t let your friend borrow it (unless you let them use your account I suppose; but that’s no…[Read more]

I am with cthuloops on the whole used games thing.

I am reminded of the whole Ubisoft/Rayman controversy. People talking about boycotting the game. And I pointed out that it would only hurt the people who worked on the game, and it wouldn’t affect the people responsible for making the decision at all. The same goes for buying used. You aren’t…[Read more]

I think people are being way WAY too knee-jerk in their reactions, not just to Xbox but Sony as well. The consoles haven’t even come out yet, let alone any kind of library of games. Yet people are already writing it off as a failure. Even with the Wii U people are dismissing it, and it’s only been out a few months. It’s easy to be dismissive now;…[Read more]

I don’t see why it boggles your mind. I see people defend Nintendo blindly all the time despite their constant terrible decisions. Why should Microsoft or Sony fans be any different?

That’s a shame. I’d have respected them more if they stuck to their guns. That being said, I could see a game like Madden working on the Wii U by having the playbook/audibles on the gamepad.

So what your saying is that it was what one would expect from a Microsoft press conference.

I fail to see how Revenegeance or any God of War would be a departure from what they are already doing.

So I take it the conference went well then.

I think running so many long hauls at once tends to be a problem, at least for me. I get wanting to have consistency; but there should also be room for spontaneity. Of course it doesn’t help that Mass Effect, Far Cry, Hitman, and Tomb Raider are all kind of boring to watch. Uncharted and Arkham Asylum were both AAA titles; but they were really fun…[Read more]

Yeah I watched the preview last week, I definitely don’t see this taking off the way FiM did, as far as outside the target demographic. It seems very standard middle school drama, which should appeal to younger girls. Nothing wrong with that of course, just not something I have any interest in seeing. I’ll probably check the show out just because…[Read more]

The thing is, it’s not just a 30 second ad at the start of the video. It’s that, plus one in the middle, plus I’ve gotten ads OVER videos before. If it were just a preroll at the start, I’d be okay with that; but to me it’s far too intrusive. When it makes it impossible to actually see what is going on, that to me is going too far.

As far as the…[Read more]

Seriously? This isn’t even a big deal. If you want to look at naked butts there is plenty of porn on the internet. Hell there is plenty of pinup stuff on deviantart and other sites that is just as revealing. So yeah, as others have pointed out, getting that isn’t much when compared to the decades of getting screwed over.

In the ultimate display of ‘it isn’t over until it’s over’ the Bruins somehow managed to overcome a 4-1 deficit in the 3rd period by scoring 3 goals in the final 10:42 (2 goals in the final 1:22) to send it to overtime. Patrice Bergeron was easily the hero of the game, scoring not only the tying goal; but game winning goal in overtime.

And yes, I…[Read more]

I don’t think it’s really fair to compare the two. Sony has their hands in a lot more ventures than Nintendo does. If you compare their total assets it isn’t even close. So sure, Nintendo might be turning a profit; but 2 billion to Sony is a drop in the bucket. Not that they WANT to lose money; but it’s not killing them to take a loss.

And in any…[Read more]

I don’t think consoles will crash as long as they continue to act as multimedia devices. Like I don’t own a DVD player, I use my PS3 if I want to watch a DVD or something on Netflix.

There is a difference between being “good games” or “unique experiences” and being killer apps (although it does help to be both). I can’t think of a single game on the 3DS or Wii U that makes me say ‘well shit I have no choice but to buy this system just to play this one game’. And in the interest of fairness, this applies to every console I’ve…[Read more]
