I am replaying A Link to the Past right now, and that's one of the differences that really strikes me. There is minimal guidance from the game (unless you seek it specifically through the fortune teller). I think this adds depth and scale to the world, because the onus is more on the player to familiarize themselves with different areas. Similarly, when a new item is acquired, part of the joy of the series is, or has been, figuring out what you can do with it. For example...
I love the game but it seems to have no legs. I didn't play much Diablo II online so I don't know what's different. I've taken two classes to 60, and will eventually do the rest, but it's just too much of the same. Tbh I've all but dropped D3 this past week in favor of the SNES I just picked up.
Maybe Blizzard needs to shelf this money-grab RMAH and get to work on PvP. I want to play a game, not an auction house.
They are most likely just getting the sku set up in inventory, and need to associate a price. I don't know if Nintendo even knows what they're selling the Wii U for yet.
Not a type of game I enjoy immensely, though I would gladly grab a collection since I respect what the series means to Sony and the Playstation brand.
Glad I held off buying any God of War games, Lol. This looks great!
Mass Effect and Dragon Age: Origins were AMAZING! The sequels, however, were collosal letdowns due to the -rpg +action formula. :/
I could probably count to 1.4 million in the time it takes to boot up the game.
Hells yes, one of my favorite movies meets one of my favorite games!
I bought a PS3 for one game: 3D Dot Game Heroes. While I have, of course, added to my library since then, that was the game that made me finally dive in. And my 360 is essentially used for two franchises, Halo and Gears of War. Gears 3 is still in the tray, though I haven't played it since the week it was released. I do most of my gaming on PC, but I like to have all options open!
Don't worry, it's 4/21 now, so you can return to your blissful state of ignorance. But before you go...
Lots of people smoke weed, dude. Odds are that several of the people you interact with on a daily basis are users, and you might not even know it. Weed doesn't make you shoot people, it doesn't make you beat your wife, and it doesn't give you green eyes or fangs. It's just another way to chill, relax, and put yourself in a more receptive state of min...

Maybe a new selling point for Kinect...
+rep for Video Game Trader in Calgary! Moved away years ago but I still miss that store dearly.
The originals were parser-interface (arrow keys) and command line!

I think the first mouse-driven Sierra adventure game was Space Quest IV, but I could be mistaken. They did re-release a lot of the collection with mouse control in the VGA updates though.
I think he's not criticizing the warnings so much as the fact that all the extra hand-holding either takes an exorbitant amount of time to actually get in to the game, or serves to remove you from the action.
Specifically to pregame loading screens etc, UFC Undisputed 3 makes me think my PS3 is broken with it's load times, but since I have to press X to get past messages telling me about autosave (every single time), I get to sit and watch it all.
Well this is something great to wake up to on a Sunday morning! I grew up playing Sierra adventure games. Space Quest, Police Quest, Hero's Quest (Quest for Glory), King's Quest... these are the titles that made me a gamer. Can't wait to see more!
This game is amazing. One of the best, if not the best, JRPGs of this generation. Epic, twisting storyline and good character development, but the real stars of the game are the action-packed combat and the grand scale of the world. 70+ hrs in, and I'm still attacking random critters just because it's fun. And I've long since lost count of the times I stand looking out from a high bluff, down at the fields and towns I've traveled through. If you're looking for an RPG with ...
There was some issue convincing publishers that JRPGs would sell in NA at what is essentially the end of the Wii's lifespan. You can read about Operation Rainfall, a fan initiative credited with getting Xenoblade Chronicles released in the West.
Versatility is a good thing, really. Why would you judge a product (or it's consumers) negatively on being useful in more and different ways? One good thing about modular tech is that it's up to you whether you buy the accessories or not.
I have Rocksmith and love it, but I wouldn't mind an option to display tab instead of the Guitar Hero-esque note highway.
