    Gaming Hyrule Warriors

    Looks like a lot of (mostly mindless) fun, no surprise for a Dynasty Warriors game. Kind of disappointed that they didn't use the color-coded (green/blue/red) knights from A Link to the Past as the allied forces (would actually be very useful for recognizing the strength of allies mid-battle...

    What did you Accomplish in Gaming Today?

    For the first time in ~15 years of playing the game on and off, I finally got to the 99th floor of Lufia 2's Ancient Cave and beat the Master Slime (didn't quite have the setup to deal 9000 damage in 3 turns so I had to do the final battle the easy way by killing myself, but a victory is a...

    YouTube 480p and 1080p Crippled

    I still use firefox and it works perfectly fine with youtube videos without me having to adjust anything (and I use 480p quite a lot, 1080p not so much). I still have not merged my youtube-account with anything (neither gmail nor google+), it's the same pure youtube-account I've had for 6-ish...

    Gaming [PPOTW] Is Microsoft right to ban early XBone Players?

    Which is why I said "or give them a password" as a second option. You know, so that only people who they think are supposed to have consoles actually get onto the services. There's absolutely no excuse to punish someone for getting onto a service when that service is not protected from access...

    Gaming [PPOTW] Is Microsoft right to ban early XBone Players?

    No, this is not right. At least they said some shit about removing the ban at release, which should bring a sigh of relief to that guy, but it's definitely wrong to punish someone who, by accident (someone else's mistake even), aquired a product early. The very thought of banning someone...

    Hardware Entry level gaming pc

    My screen cost 85€ (and I see no reason why any sensible person would ever pay a three-digit number for a screen - you're sitting right in front of it, it doesn't need to be huge) and you can get an OS for less than 100€ as well (Hint: It doesn't need to be the "ultimate" or "enterprise"...

    Whats your most addicting game you play or had played...

    Ehm... if we're going by games that we can't stop playing... I may or may not have about three-thousand hours played on smash bros games (In comparison: even pokemon and civilization games only get to a few hundred hours). I actually bought a wii just for that (and I'll only get a wiiu once the...

    Things you recently bought or got

    Megabyte Punch (finally got around to it after having pressed the greenlight button months ago) and the Breath of Death + Cthulhu save the World bundle (because they're ~15 hours of entertainment each and dirt-cheap). Also ordered a 3DS XL and Pokemon, will probably arrive in two weeks.

    When Are You "Too Old" For Something?

    My tastes for entertainment have not changed since I was ~6 years old (holy crap I just remembered how freaking many years ago that was) and I don't see why they ever would. I still play video games (of the same genres even) and I still watch stupid cartoons. Hell, I still feel actual emotions...

    760 people die in UK heat wave, 'sweltering' temperatures of up to 32C/90F

    Individual people react differently to extreme heat or cold. The same goes for collectives of people (people from hot/cold/mild regions of the world). I can easily walk around in shorts and t-shirt even during winter (while others stare at me weirdly because they have to wear heavy coats and...

    Final Fantasy VII Now On Steam

    Still have my old PS1 version and playing that on my PC works fine enough. Paying money for 'chieves and a Cheat button is not exactly worth it.

    Xbox One games will still be playable after servers shut down

    Of course any game that makes use of things like that will not work anymore (or at least have part of their content not working). Even if the last patch before server shutdown removes the need to be online from the console, stuff like that can never be fixed after the fact. They mentioned many...

    Things you recently bought or got

    A Magicka 4-pack (well, 1/4th of it to be exact). Dark Souls. New USB controller because my old one literally kept killing me (and yes I tried Keyboard+Mouse for Dark Souls and even the broken controller is better so I'll just wait until I continue playing it.) After having gotten Rainslick3...

    So... Xbox One, or PS4? your next-gen choice

    By using simple observation you could easily get an estimate of the prices yourself. I wonder how anyone can even be surprised at console price announcements. All you need to do is look how much the last few generations cost at launch and you'll know the new ones will cost at the very least...

    So... Xbox One, or PS4? your next-gen choice

    This gen will be PC only until the Wiiu drops to ~150-200€ price in a few years - which is when I'll get one for local coop (smash bros, party games, kart and such). The other two consoles have nothing to offer. They cost as much as a PC but have less power, way smaller pools of available...
