    Hacking Post your WiiU cheat codes here!

    In Pikmin 3, the address for # of pikmins in onions: Is it a real one that the game actually reads from? I have found some addresses in the NA version, but none of them have any real effect. At most, the fake # is displayed on the screen - but as soon as you take one out, it gets recalculated...

    "PS4" announced at Playstation Meeting 2013

    I totally get that not being chosen for 'something' while I seem just as qualified to me as the one being chosen except for gender, would seem unfair at the individual level. But in this particular context, I think it's justified, because the gender ratio was so extreme and non-representative...

    "PS4" announced at Playstation Meeting 2013

    sexism usually implies 'prejudice' based on sex. There's definitely a 'preference' based on gender -- again, the assumption is all candidates are already equally qualified -- but is that preference really 'prejudice' in the normal meaning of the word? What would be a prejudice-free way to choose...

    "PS4" announced at Playstation Meeting 2013

    ah, ok, I do make a distinction for gender against a backdrop of the severe under-representation of one gender and over-representation of another gender at this event. If a woman is qualified for the role, and all other equally qualified candidates are men, I would choose the woman to do the...

    "PS4" announced at Playstation Meeting 2013

    It's really that bad, eh? lol and the reason I am only bringing this up now as opposed to before is because I've only recently become conscious about this whole gender representation issue. I couldn't have brought it up earlier simply because I wasn't aware there were no women at most other...

    "PS4" announced at Playstation Meeting 2013

    Please don't strawman. I wasn't saying they should put a woman there just because of her gender, I was saying they should have a woman there because of her talent, drive, accomplishments, etc. AND her gender. I don't know whether you're trying to tell me that it's *impossible* to find one such...

    "PS4" announced at Playstation Meeting 2013

    A lot more positions can be appropriate for the presentation of a video game than for a console. Sony could at least make an effort with the other companies who came to their event to present games. I mean, doesn't any of those big dev teams have at least one qualified woman as designer, writer...

    "PS4" announced at Playstation Meeting 2013

    Whoever did the intro video should be overseeing the entire presentation as well... if they did, they would've noticed all presenters on this 2-hour show were guys. All of them. Except the voice announcer at the beginning that said "Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Andrew House."

    ED64 Plus... my impressions. Any Owners around here?

    @[Truth] But for someone who already considers $60 to be too expensive for any flashcart, this 20$ difference presents an additional layer of psychological barrier to them. In order to accept $60+$20 is okay for a flashcart, one would have to overcome the initial challenge created by the...

    ED64 Plus... my impressions. Any Owners around here?

    If the clone works as advertised, what difference does it really make to the end user whether or not its design came from something else? To a consumer, the only useful information is how well it works. I really appreciate what Bonny is doing here. So far, most of the negative reviews of this...

    Angry Birds Trilogy (360, PS3, 3DS) sold well, coming to Wii and Wii-U

    Your whole argument can be reduced to: I hate how many people actually like Angry Birds because I don't like it as much, therefore they shouldn't like it as much as they do. Well, I personally find Snake to be rather boring. So I guess I should rejoice at the fact that it isn't very successful?

    PS1/2 Ps2 softmod?

    I assumed this is the store you meant? Sorry to keep bugging you about that one detail, but whether they'd sell the system for $50 new, or used, is what I want to know... I'm currently talking to someone on kijiji selling their used PS2 for $30... but IF this Hi-Tech place sells it brand new @...

    ED64 Plus... my impressions. Any Owners around here?

    Do you have any original cartridge with CIC6105 to test? Here's a list of games with their respective CICs: http://www.neoflash.com/forum/index.php?topic=7182.0 What I want to know is whether or not ED64PLUS can run Jet Force Gemini and Banjo-Tooie, unpatched, by simply plugging a CIC6105...

    Reliable TaoBao Agent?

    It seems tricky for you because you're located in the US. Taobao accepts international credit cards except those issued in the US. If you can get the payment issue sorted, you don't really need an "agent" as you'll be able to ask the seller to ship to you directly, or bid for the service of a...

    Indie Games Your Thoughts & Recommendations

    Indie games give consumers more games to choose from and more games to play. But the problem with them is you really have to seek them out, as opposed to simply letting them reach you. For example, I check the Indie Games Festival website (http://www.igf.com/) every now and then for games to...

    Horror games actually horrifying?

    Define 'scary' please. Like, what type of movie would you consider 'scary'? Rule of Rose (ps2) wasn't actually billed under the 'horror' genre, but it freaked me out more than any of the so-called horror games. It's a pure psychological drama that can get under your skin and you will feel it...

    What if today was your last day?

    lol talk about practical. @Sterling - the opening question would receive the most resonance if asked of the people who are currently working too hard and spending too little time with their families, your question can remind them to rebalance work and family. But it wouldn't resonate as a plead...
