    Mega Man, Metroid and More Go Pulp in Retro Sci-Fi Covers

    Several of them are very good, but I don't like the Metroid one. Surprise ending twists were fairly popular in pulp SF and I think it should have gone with hiding Samus' sex. It can be very hit and miss, even stuff from the same author and editor. Most of the good pulp stories tend to be...

    Will These Brain Teasers Stump You?

    Analyst: PC Has Surpassed Console in Terms of Revenue

    You are confusing mainframe computers actually used by governments/corporations to do the jobs you describe and the networked PCs that are used as clients/terminals of the mainframe. Home PCs have long been a luxury and did not become ubiquitous until the mid to late '00s, on the other hand...

    Japan Ready To Ban "Gacha" Gameplay

    WindKnight is correct. The ME3 multiplayer packs do run on a gacha concept. The pricing may be different (ME3 packs can be bought with in game or real money currency, while many of the targeted Gacha games are real money only), but that is not what is being outlawed. What is being outlawed is a...
