Since it appears they're doing a lot of things right (choice of Steam or not, 60 fps etc), it would surprise me if it didn't have joypad support (for the Xbox 360 controller for Windows, at any rate). Most games do nowadays. That's why it's a good idea IMO. I think the trend of handing over...

I loved Enslaved. It wasn't perfect, but it was a good, story-focused game (despite the loopy ending) with likable characters, and a nice twist on the Monkey-king legend. Arguably I'm not a huge DmC fan, but I never doubted that with enough effort they could make a pretty stellar reimagining.

One the one hand I'm pretty happy to finally have an update on this thing, I've been waiting for it for a while now. On the other hand, I'm pretty bummed, because the overall aesthetic of the game seems to have changed drastically, and not necessarily for the better IMO. Here's the very...

I really don't know who to side with in this case... I mean, if Hero Heel is graphic in any way, I agree it shouldn't be made available to kids, but I also agree that it's the responsibility of the parents and guardians to check what their kids are reading in the first place. I guess...

Or a flute ? Jethro Tull ftw !

It was so slow that it would've actually been quicker to get in a car and drive to the school where the results were posted than to wait for a page to load... You could actually access the Minitel service from a computer connected to the internet, I believe the protocols were similar (like...

That's almost true. I used the damn thing a couple of times, and believe me, while the box may be free, nothing else is. Minitel use cost about 0.60 francs (10 Euro cents) a minute, and that's not counting services that cost extra. Given that pages usually took between 2 and 6 minutes to load...

GoT episodes air in France right after they do in the U.S. But get this: they only air on a channel which is exclusive to an INTERNET SERVICE PROVIDER's (namely Orange) TV + internet package. This means that if you want to watch GoT on TV without waiting for the DVD/Blu-Ray release, you have to...

Oh god ! We're something like the thrid or fourth WORST country in Europe when it comes to mastery of foreign languages, it's awful. Then again, it also makes for good prospects when you're a translator (which I am). Still a damn shame though. Oh, and don't forget putain, which is more or...

No way ! My dad's from Mulhouse ! Apart from the center, it's the most depressing town in the world... I was already planning on voting for him in the first round, he recently announced the Konami code easter egg on twitter, stressing that video games are one of the levers of a strong economy...
