    What Have We Learned From Video Games?

    LOL This one is hilarious. Insert anything related to jumping or mashing/holding the "Run" button. XD "Just climb up there and check which direction it is." - Assassin's Creed. Good luck making it up that climb in real life. (Bonus: Just jump down into the haystack.) "Spamming sprint." - Grand...

    Gaming Games You've Yet to Beat + Why?

    LOL I have to agree with those types of games being so unbelievably long. It doesn't help that the gameplay often times AND FOR VERY OFTEN TIME require players to battle enemies.... For the sake of leveling up to progress. It's ungodly long while at the same time it's padded further with...

    Where did we go wrong?

    I do not know the answer(s) but I completely understand what's being asked because I can see it myself as well. To quickly portray my observations, I notice that GBATemp isn't a whole lot different, either. Especially in the Echo Chamber-y category you portrayed. It's generally the same: A post...

    Gaming Games You've Yet to Beat + Why?

    I've seen a lot of threads about "the best games/favorite games/Games you already played or beat This/Games you already played or beat that" but not one about games you haven't or have yet to beat. Not necessarily ones you're "interested in", but ones you've definitely grown accustomed to ensure...

    Google plans to block sideloading unverified apps on Android in the future

    You bring up some really good points, contrary to most of the posts on here simply being complaints and insults without any research and conclusion jumping. I'm unsure how F-Droid and other places like Aurora Store and the sort will be affected by this but I think it's actually best not to...

    Google plans to block sideloading unverified apps on Android in the future

    Unfortunately that actually is usually the case and it's so unfortunate there aren't any pro-consumer ways around this on Google's end. :/ Many video games you wouldn't even have known has come out on Android official through the Google Play Store (Bloodstained Ritual of the Night, Alien...

    Google plans to block sideloading unverified apps on Android in the future

    I won't claim to have read every little fine detail in the Google Play upload requirements outside of knowing uploaded applications must not be "malicious", "fraudulent" and all of that but as of now, there are a plethora of Nintendo-based emulators on the Google Play Store. (There, of course...

    Google plans to block sideloading unverified apps on Android in the future

    I'm not saying I agree with the user's choice of words you're replying to, but I went to the source, read it and the article does NOT mention sideloading outside of ensuring you understand none of this affects it. It's designed to affect the requirements for APKs to be produced, not how they're...

    Google plans to block sideloading unverified apps on Android in the future

    As an Android developer myself, this article has especially been imperative to my work so I just clicked the source and, from my understanding, this GBATemp article sounds a bit misleading. Here's directly from the Google source: Meaning, no. Google is NOT getting rid of Side loading or "stray...

    I don't (really) find video games fun anymore.

    A lot of people here mentioning how new games are bland and all of that. I won't judge anyone's decisions or thoughts but I think you should just look within: What is it, exactly, the interested you in the video games you played in the first place? What kept you around and what changed? Video...

    What games do you want to see on the Switch 2?

    Wow... What a shame this post didn't get any comments. I saw another post next to this one that asked the same question but I had distaste in it since they were mostly talking about ports... I don't buy a new console to play the same games (Usually in an inferior way) I play on generally...

    What game did you want to like but couldn't?

    Welcome to Diablo 1. XD That's more Diablo 1 than Diablo 2. In diablo 1, when that crap happens, you actually have to reset the entire game. (With the option to keep your character, box/inventory gear and level but your story/quest/dungeon progress loses) Sure it happens in Diablo 2, but Diablo...

    What controllers do you like/dislike and why?

    I've played with a lot of various controllers so I'll go through a bunch of them and my opinions on them but save my favorite overall for last. BASE RULES What defines a good controller? One that you find fun and enjoy using. It does not have to be comfortable physically nor does it have to be...

    I think it's time to face the fact

    Every time I read about "Wii U was (Insert praise here)" and then state how the Switch doesn't come close to how amazing the Wii U was and whatever else... There's ONE thing that never gets stated during these conversations and I don't understand why.... Where was this praise when Nintendo...

    Indie games are overrated.

    I haven't read all of these comments so I'm sorry if this has been addressed, especially by Flame and balemoc but here're my few cents that expand upon what those two users stated "Indie games are overrated" is being VERY abstract. What defines a game being good, bad or anything in between is...

    Has anybody here ever watched any of the horror film series called V/H/S?

    I love V/H/S film series! I have always loved anthologies in general and television shows I watch often follow the same format such as The Twilight Zone or The X-Files. I definitely have to disagree on V/H/S/85 being poor, though. It's actually pretty rare when a V/H/S movie has hitting...

    Are there any good horror media that start off as something else?

    (Sorry for not "Mixing in other titles" but I'm honestly a bit confused on what you mean about this or what it'll prevent or solve so... I kind of just omitted this option for my list.) Movies -Audition (Widowed father seeking innocent romance -> Something else suddenly...) -Possession...

    Sonic Team says don't expect any remakes of the Sonic Adventure games

    Always up to the creators to do with as they please but that answer... "It'll be too much work and effort" doesn't necessarily feel right to me for an artist to ever say... Maybe, instead, if "As beloved as the games are, it isn't what the majority of the fans and mass audience we target would...
