Not entirely. For the last few years the predominantly conservative Tokyo prefecture (not the national legislature) has been trying to remove various kinds of printed pornography 2D included. Other recent banned criminal offenses include holding a job in Tokyo if you have any tattoos, and the imprisonable offense of creating any form of lolicon, which has led to fear amongst mangaka and anime producers alike for portrayal of teenage girls in provocative situations.

So far, ...

Anyone else getting a prohibition-esque vibe from the feminists recently? As if they would like nothing more than to ban video game nudity, censor cleavage, and regulate body proportions just to say the least?

Man, I'm glad they're a minority, but I wish they weren't so vocal; stress is bad for everybody. Video games are supposed to relieve stress (although some are too heavy to do so without fan service). Sex doesn't just sell, masturbation FACTUALLY relie...

I see some people here and further down the comment section confused about the specs seeming twice that of the RX480. This bargraph can be misleading, because it doesn't start at 0 the way one would expect, but rather it starts at 80% of the performance of the RX480 in order to paint a prettier picture for Nvidia's card.

I'm sure most caught that, but I'm surprised it isn't talked about more.

"There is nothing inherently wrong with dubs, otherwise voice acting in all games would be subpar, but it's clearly not an issue in Western-developed games."

With some notable exceptions, dubs are almost always worse than the original language. Most of the exceptions worked on English at the same time as the original, and other languages are rarely as lucky. You're also dead wrong about dubs being fine in western-developed games. PAL and ...

I doubt Square would want to reaquaint fans with-- or introduce to new prospective buyers-- the poorly received FFXIII just to help sell FFXV. It's a decent enough game though if you ignore its linearity and departure from the series' roots.

Personally I think Halo Wars will be in games with gold, soon, if not in July.

I don't know if you're still stuck, but try wearing darkness and fire resistant robes and not armor since Aldrich eats right through it with his elements.

Hope you've got a female character, cause odds are you'll be wearing a dress. My manly bearded avatar of myself wearing a dress took out much of the joy of success.

For the record, Aldrich gave me a hard time because I was underleveled. Only the Nameless Ki...

I hope they haunt the hospital still, until the day a group of feminist Ghostbusters traps them for all eternity.

"that Midgard Serpent"

You mean Jormundgandr, the serpent that surrounds Midgard, our world.

The Midgard Serpents were already killed by Sephiroth and Cloud and company. Kratos fought snakes bigger than those in his first boss fight of the series.

I understand where you're coming from, but it's not like CD's damage themselves. That comes from carelessness.

Drives on the other hand degrade over time. That said, care and luck can give longevity. My original PlayStation from '96 works fine, and South Florida's hot and humid combo isn't gentle to electronics. Most consoles are rugged enough, only my GameCube died a natural death, and it was the controller port that went, not the drive.

The problem with consoles and 60 fps is that it is all up to the developer. On PC there are so many configurations that developers usually keep it unlocked, and let a myriad of settings be the tools with which gamers decide fps for themselves, up to their PC's limits. On console, developers know exactly what they are working with, and decide whether fps or graphical fidelity are more important to their game or fanbase at large.

Any 60fps game on modern consoles is not g...

Definitely an upgrade in terms of content, but I think half of the game is the entirety of the first Dissidia. Not really so bad, though, since Duodecim is the prequel that leads straight into the original story afterwards. It's also like getting two games at once.

Cross is pretty radically different from Trigger, but not really in a bad way.

Cross has more potential party characters than most RPG's outside of Suikoden, and instead of time hopping, you travel between worlds or realities or something (I was a kid in the nineties, don't expect me to remember the complexities of the plot).

Truly a great RPG with-- if I remember correctly-- visible enemy encounters that patrol the dungeons, a great story, and...

I love Berserk, and I love Musou, so I'll definitely be keeping an eye on this, but I hope they don't keep the Second Arc version of Guts for what we can obviously see is the Golden Age Arc in the pics.

You don't know what you're talking about. With headphones on, the audio doesn't feed to the speaker, and even at very loud volumes, the controller at max is quite audible.

1. If you can wait (or save up while waiting) for a short while, the RX480 will be $200 at >5.5 teraflops
2. X99 motherboard with i7 quadcore cpu ~$230 amazon
3. Choice of cooling unit anywhere from $50- over $200 (considering power consumption, I doubt the 480 will overheat easily)

That's roughly a Scorpio-level build for $5-600 depending on preference. Throw in another 480 and you'll easily best a single GTX 1060

Lol, sounds uncomfortable. Personally, I hold the controller behind my head, hands resting on my recliner as I lay back, legs splayed wide on either armrest.

The light bar is the fastest way to determine character in GTA V when you're like me and decided to go hardcore HUD-less first-person run.

In most games though, its useless or nearly so. I still prefer it over nothing, since LED doesn't hurt battery life by any noticeable amount.

Though I wasn't really bothered by RE 4-6 as much as some, action really doesn't have much to offer Resident Evil when it's main draw is survival horror
