Infamous should've kept Cole instead of the terrible new guy. Cole is Infamous.

Resolutiongate is this generation's "blast processing": people using this marketing element as an arguing point without having any idea what it actually means for a game's quality or technical fidelity.

At least "blast processing" sounds cool. Resolutiongate sounds like a bad movie title.

Why do these guys think that making "console-quality" games for handheld hardware is smart? It's not. The most popular and well-received games on handhelds were not "console-quality." They had their own short, bite-sized, digestible appeal. Tetris was built for handhelds. RPG's are built for handhelds. Short, simple, and easy to play in brief bursts.

That's why Nintendo hasn't been touched in handhelds since the Game Boy; they build their g...

They still do, because unless there's something fresh and new in the gameplay of the HD remakes, there's no point in paying full price for it.

Wind Waker HD had Hero Mode and beautiful graphics. The ICO HD collection had massively improved technical fidelity. Hell, I'd even say that Halo Anniversary had some good updates.

Aside from those and maybe a few others, there's no point in spending all that money on a game you already played to comple...

I've been hearing lots of complaints about the speed of the gameplay in the videos. The game itself looks more like a classic PS2 platformer like Jak and Daxter (appropriate) or Ratchet and Clank, and as a fan of both Sonic and the PS2 platformer trifecta, I'm liking what I've seen.

There's nothing wrong for fighting for some sort of equality or form of balanced rights. It's really the way that these causes are presented that's the big problem. For some reason, lots of these issues are being brought up in ways that only exist for the sake of argument without offering any kind of proposed solution or real, intellectual discussion.

Not everything needs to be protested, boycotted or chewed out. Not everything has some social undertone that is tr...

Wii U system sales are up over 600 percent in the UK, a region that routinely passes on Nintendo hardware. That's a damn good start, I'd say.

Oh man, I remember THAT Sonic Generations mod. The part where Sonic would "breakdance" at the end just....I mean, wow.

Nice choice on GTAIV, though I'm partial to the Dragon Ball Z Goku mod when you can just blow everything up.

I'd like a prequel to The Last of Us more than a sequel, to be honest.

Nope, because the game industry is in total turmoil.

AAA game budgets are becoming ridiculously high. That's why so many people are being let go from development studios after their game is released, even if it hits 1 million sales in a single week. There's no job security in AAA development (especially after Ken Levine's little stunt with Irrational), and when there's no job security and thousands of more secure technical jobs in other fields, why would you w...

Sony don't have too many big 2014 releases now, but they have a record for pulling some surprises at big conventions. I think there'll be more to get excited for at E3.

Yeah, but that defeats the purpose of satire. If you have to explain that your joke is satire, then you've failed at providing good satire.

You're forgetting that there's money involved in this. If you sell a VHS tape with the recorded footage to make a profit, that breaks copyright and is against the law. When someone is making money off of your content, that changes things big time.

That's what makes this whole argument so complicated: the money.

As much as I'd like Nintendo to be able to just sit back and let the Let's Play community do what they want, RPGrinder is right: no one who makes a Let's Play video is doing it out of pure promotion for Nintendo. They want to make the video and get ad money (or at the very least, exposure or popularity from viewers). There is another motive driving Youtube content with Nintendo game footage, one that isn't immediately within Nintendo's best interest.

I'...
