    The great OST appreciation thread

    Here's a top 5 list of some of my personal favorite OSTs (in no particular order):

    The Best and Worst Crafting Systems you've seen

    I found Final Fantasy XIII's upgrade/dismantle system to be very rewarding. I enjoyed how many accessories you had, and how important they were to your battle strategy. I like how there was a even a little math involved when it came to calculating EXP bonus multipliers. It may not have been the...

    Character creation mechanic is dying.

    I'm also not very keen on an extensive character creation. I do, however, like to at least have some extra little options in order to make my character (at least slightly) unique from the rest of the pack. This is mainly a preference for MMOs. I really can't stand it when your only choices of...

    Personal Game Rules

    Metal Gear Solid: Always save Meryl on the first playthrough. If I'm feeling ballsy I'll try to beat it through without the aid of the SOCOM suppressor. Resident Evil 5: Lately it's a personal challenge of mine to complete the entire game with just the starting pistol. F.E.A.R.: Dual-pistols...

    Will Metal Gear Solid V be worth it on PS3

    After playing the game on PS3 and then on PC on maximum settings (I can't speak for the PS4 version, but I assume they are pretty close in quality) I would say you would be selling yourself short if you got the PS3 version. I'm not saying pass it up, definitely play it. But seeing all that extra...

    Classics you can't get into

    It took me years to beat Sonic 1 without save states. Starlight Zone is an absolute nightmare and damn near impossible for me to perfect. That's if I'm lucky enough to even get that far without being on my last limb. However, the speed physics were actually very realistic and natural once you...

    Do you view the player-character as "you"?

    I am a pretty big fan of this style. I have a hard time pushing my character to do things in the game that in real lfe I would morally struggle with. If its a necessary action it doesn't affect me as much, but if I have choice options I don't usually stray beyond my own morality. I'm with...

    Cartoon Network, Scheduling, and You.

    A very inquisitive thread, and a very depressingly accurate one to say the least. While I don't watch CN on a regular basis anymore (living the Netflix/Hulu life) I have noticed that TTG is pretty much ALWAYS on whenever I'm visiting friends. It's not the worst show, but definitely not worth...

    Do you view the player-character as "you"?

    Typically, yes I consider my character to be myself digitally personified. This is especially so in games with create-a-character functions. In order to keep it fresh I sometimes like to change little things here and there (not really to recreate myself, but to envision myself as a...

    Kingdom Hearts series as whole......is it REALLY that perfect?

    I have a friend who swears KH is the best series ever made, but, respectively, I disagree. He knows the story inside and out, and has made many (failed) attempts to envelop me in it. As much as I want to enjoy its complexity, I just can't. It just seems like they have making it up as they...

    Classics you can't get into

    I'm actually quite a fan of classics, however Saga Frontier for the PSOne was just too damn hard for me to get into. And by hard I mean freaking hard. I love the concept art, the characters, even the gameplay is pretty fun (what small amounts I've gotten to taste anyway), but how crushing it is...

    Change one word in the above sentence.

    The Maharaja's gharial is leaking absurdly! Weird Travels!

    I almost never beat my games?

    I've always been a completionist by nature, and when it comes to games I really don't play around (pun intended). I spend as long as it takes to completely finish a title, just as long as I'm super into it of course. Hell, even if it's not my favorite game I will at least play it through for an...

    Fallout 4 pip-boy - All gone!

    Well that was fast. I was late on discovering that the new Pip-Boy was actually a thing (only a few days ago) and now it doesn't matter since I won't be owning one (at least for now). As a fan of the series, it's nice to at least see something actually be limited for once. As soon as I saw the...

    Apple Removes Civil War Games From App Store

    I believe their reasoning for the removal is ridiculous. Video games can be equally as informative and educational as movies or books, so to hear Apple blatantly dub them as "offensive" and "mean" is truly beyond practical reasoning. As what others have mentioned, we can't escape our past...
