    Jimquisition: Shaming PC Ports Because Why Not?

    The first minute-and-a-half of this video was just about the funniest, most cathartic thing I have ever seen in my life. Thank God for you.

    The Glorious PC Gaming Master Race

    The seventh console generation courted us with fine dining, and eagerly we feasted on course after course of promises for the modern era. It was only after the check arrived that we learned of the cost. And that we were going Dutch. When I think about the "always online" or "daily check-in"...

    The worst and most pointless weapon in any game.

    I would say that the fireballs from Ghosts 'n' Goblins would have to be up there. They're weak, difficult to aim, and a strict downgrade from the default weapon. No idea why it exists at all except as a "ha ha, gotcha!" put there by Capcom to rob players of the vastly superior throwing knife...

    Is anyone defending EA at this point?

    Are you kidding? "When they're down" is the best and easiest time to kick anyone!

    Something you've done that you're proud of

    I did my student teaching at a high school last semester. I taught "Romeo and Juliet" to a bunch of 14-year-olds. Even though they were skeptical at first, a number of them came up to me after the unit was over and admitted to me that they were surprised at how much they actually enjoyed reading...

    More Unskippable Piracy Warnings for DVDs

    Sometimes I think that the MPAA does obnoxious shit like this to make more people turn to piracy. And then, when DVD/BluRay sales inevitably drop, they can point to their shrinking bottom lines, turn to their lobbyists with big, tearful doe eyes, and proclaim "SEE?! Piracy is killing our industry!"

    What 3 games have you played the longest?

    Final Fantasy 3/6 (SNES) Medievia (PC, online MUD) Final Fantasy Tactics And I don't regret a second of any of them.

    Man, you guys are GENIUSES!

    Seriously. This was well and truly amazing the first time I saw it. Can't say much more, lest I spoil it for anyone who hasn't had the pleasure of playing, but if you've been following the story at all, the final stage is a masterstroke. Street Fighter III is an incredible example of...

    Cooperatively Competitive

    As for me, I'm having more fun now than ever. Being able to share fighting games with my friends was always a kind of far-off dream for years. I don't mind loosening up for a bit and letting my buddies get a few rounds or games over on me, because that's what motivates them to keep playing, and...

    Cooperatively Competitive

    I know it's frowned upon in the fighting game community at large, but I almost always give second round if I'm just absolutely crushing my opponent. It's hard to hold back sometimes, knowing that I could end the fight in under 20 seconds in a game of SF4, but I don't want my opponent to want to...

    Grandpa Tastes Concrete Over Videogames

    "B-b-b-b-but you have nothing to fear from the emerging police state as long as you don't resist!"

    Grandpa Tastes Concrete Over Videogames

    Jesus Christ almighty, the police just can't seem to get out of their own way in trying to amass as much bad PR as possible before 2011 is out. Even if he WAS shoplifting, even if he WAS resisting arrest, we're not talking about the fucking Green Goblin here, it's some geezer with a grandkid.

    What's your "weird" interest?

    I've got a pretty awesome hot sauce collection.
