You, sir, have my disagreement. DR3 does indeed look like a cluster of f-bombs hunting for a target, but all the material I've seen on Ryse gives it the gameplay feel of Dragon's Lair, only for 6-10 hours rather than the half-hour Dragon's Lair/Space Ace. It won't even get the relative mercy of...

You agree to give them that right by not returning it promptly, in new condition. It's in the language of the EULA in question, which you agree to explicitly when you use the software the first time. Is it enforceable? Maybe. Did you give them that right? According to the contract you...

More or less? There's similar language in nearly everything PC, and the same in a lot of the disc-based consoles. I haven't done a detailed read of the license terms for the consoles in a few years, but rest assured, that you are in fact licensing the software. You bought the rights to one only...

Okay, fair enough. The photo doesn't predate the Kickstarter. However, Lollipop Chainsaw doesn't necessarily meet the intended burden of evidence to say she bought it (or any games) with the Kickstarter money: That didn't end until the 16th of the same month. Nor do the existence of a any...

E en then, that stipulation is most certainly part of the "boilerplate" on pretty much every piece of software since Sir Bill of Gates managed to use them to carve his Empire out of everyone's pocket. Go check your Win7 license. Or any of the myriad other licenses on your computer. Unless...

On this, we agree completely. She most likely has access to the hundred-plus games she's pictured with (whether they're hers or not), she shouldn't have grabbed LP footage from her YT peers. A nice recording rig shouldn't have cost her that much, either. One more thing of note: We don't see...

Not to nit-pick your argument, but you make an assumption here on facts that are not in evidence-- she has a crew, some of which no doubt own games themselves. it is therefore entirely possible that the pile of games you're seeing is not, in fact, games she spent the KS money on, but the...

I'll give KiteTales one thing: Her production values are considerably better. She credits others when appropriate, and presents a more moderate voice that at least has the appearance of academic rigor. So whilst I'm not about to "fawn" all over her, I do see her as another voice to add to the...

I've been known to use Wikipedia this way, and the ease at which it may be edited on nothing more than a IP address log is why we in Academia prefer to avoid using it directly. For Academic puropses, it's not particularly attributable, and you still get people that make poorly-supported...

My idea of a Supernatural Romance novel? Don't. The idea has already been thoroughly ruined. It's not worth it.

I don't even want to start on a list of games I've not finished. My GoG, Steam and PSN libraries are littered with the shambling corpses of half-completed games. That's to say nothing of games I have on disc, cartridge, or floppy(old!). If I stopped buying games tomorrow, I might get around...

Really? That was your takeaway? Faked image or not, there are a million things you can do with the money above and beyond the six grand you asked for, and an example game demonstrating what you learned cherry-picking LPs (amongst other crimes) would be one of the better ones. It would also be...

FFXIV isn't coming to 360 or XBone.

if we want more "balanced" representation in video games, then find a cheap engine and make your own. Hell, for the kind of money that Anita took in from Kickstarter, I challenge her to make a game herself that demonstrates her views in a way that the rest of us are most likely to understand...

I got the Vita version myself, and someone gave me the 3Ds version. The Vita version doesn't appear to have the level of game-destroying bugs, and is very nice on its single large screen. The 3DS version gave me a splitting headache before deleting my data. Twice. If you already own both...
