  1. I already own it on PS3, so it'd be dumb to spend more money to play an inferior streamed version. (I know it's the same version, but the streaming makes it inferior due to latency and compression.)
  2. I want to play Ni No Kuni but the idea of going back to PS3 is not appealing...
  3. I liked Killzone 2 fine, but it wasn't great. Killzone 3 I quit probably 2/3 of the way through because I realized I wasn't actually having fun, I was interested in the game world but the encounters were boring. Shadowfall I really liked a lot.
  4. But with the cabinet you can at least pretend you're not a dictator.
  5. The 100 has been on my list for a while, maybe I'll bump it up.
  6. I think it largely depends on the size of your TV. 4 people on a 20-inch was awful, but 4 people on a 37 wasn't bad.
  7. Halo did up through at least 4, and I'm fairly sure 5 does as well (although I do know that 5 does not allow splitscreen campaign coop).
  8. I will freely admit to liking some things that are bad, despite knowing they're bad. What baffles me is when people claim that bad stories are good. Although it's also possible people are saying "I play it for the story" and I take that as "the story is good" when really they mean "I love the story even though it's terrible".
  9. I think Zelda would threaten Horizon if anyone owned a Wii U. But as pointed out above, no one does.
  10. I don't remember anything supernatural about 6.
  11. I played 6 and liked it and knew nothing of the lore.
  12. Too bad it comes out 3 days before Zelda. I can't think of a single game that would win that fight for me. Luckily for Sony hardly anybody owns a Wii U, and I doubt the Switch will be a massive money-suck either.
  13. The judiciary has always been in a tenuous position really, as is the legislature. They're both in a "how many legions does the Pope have?" position if the executive really wants to push it.
  14. See, it's that second part where Ace Combat's strength lies, not in the ridiculous story.
  15. Apparently over the weekend the ACLU received $24 million in donations. To put that in perspective they typically receive approximately $4 million in donations every year.
  16. I'd call them a one-upper. Sorry to disappoint. I think Seinfeld had a funny term for those people, but I can't remember what it was.
  17. Life is Strange complete first season is on Humble for $5. https://www.humblebundle.com/store/life-is-strange-complete-season
  18. Good video about how people are so obsessed with the edge cases of self-driving cars ("What will it do if confronted with the choice between running over a baby carriage and a box of kittens?!") that they ignore the fact that tens of thousands of people die every year from car crashes caused by human error.
  19. Okay, I get it. It's odd in that it's novel, not that they shouldn't be reacting that way.
  20. They are on Frostbite, though given what little I know about game development I don't see why that would affect the proportions of the models. Aren't models typically created in another program and then imported into the game engine?
  21. How does Trump's election show that the institutions are not strong? And anyway, I'm not saying they won't do long-term damage, just that whatever damage is done will probably not be irreparable.
  22. America has pretty good institutions, so I think we'll probably come through this without it destroying our democracy. That said, it's naive in the extreme to believe that it doesn't pose a threat.
  23. Looks worse than previous games to me. *Edit - Or if not "worse" then at least more strange.
  24. I feel like all their faces look weird, and there's also something odd about their body proportions.
