Daft comment. It's just a single option with two choices, stemming from one of the most heavily debated and polarizing issues among various video gaming communities. Both options can be just as much optimized for the platform since it still means dealing with default configuration(s).

So it's not something to be panicking over.
And calling consoles toys in relation to gaming PCs is ludicrous.

@LuckyLand I thought you meant King the mobile minigame gambling establishment until I read the post being replied to. So you don't like Stephen King huh? Well, we can at least agree on not caring about Tesla. And I'm Croatian.

Here's a short piece of fiction for those coming in late:

"Noooooo, my baby, please don't die! Please don't die on me!"
"Hush now, don't worry about a thing. He's alive, you just need to blow on the cartridge contacts like I showed you before."
"I told you I'm fine with my darling being an 'it'!"
"What's the problem nurse?"
"Nothing special, just regular maintenance."
"Good to hear, we just ran out of padded rooms. Anyway, how's the GameGear guy?"
"He's been fine ever since we performed the procedure."
"Procedure? Don't tell me?..."
"Yes, we hooked the device to a nuclear power reactor. It was the only way, doctor. It was the only way."

@Tempestryke I quoted you since you're a late poster yourself. You might be the only one to read this, so hope you enjoyed. Excuses if you didn't. (;

Re: Review: Gekido Kintaro's Revenge (Switch eShop)

@Stargazer I'm not really upset. If I come across that way it's just the way I comment I suppose. I strive to be outspoken while remaining inside the boundaries of civility, and I don't spare anyone from my opinion if I think there's something to be said.

Now how well I manage in accomplishing this ideal is anyone's guess, but I don't consider it as being measured with the kinds of response my comments generate, both positive and negative.

I hope this doesn't offend anyone by thinking their opinion doesn't matter to me. It does. But the way other people respond to you cannot be the only thing contributing to the way you act. To be your own person you need both self-determination and the willingness to listen to what others have to say.

As for the rather presumptuous and cliched Fox News part of your comment, I occasionally read an article on their website and that's about that. I follow news across a wide variety of sources and types of media.

Thanks for taking the time to read.

@Shiryu Yeah, that. As well as videos with anti-Trump political commentary for some reason. On the same site, on your own article. That has nothing to do with either Trump or politics in general. I'm not your boss, but try to be more, well, professional in the future.

Re: The Games Industry Reacts To The White House's Violent Games Showreel

@Sgt-Jack-V I never said that all people should play only Nintendo. Here's what I said:

"Trump did good. After all it's the reason why I, and I expect many people here, play Nintendo."

Trump isn't planning to ban or restrict every form of interactive video entertainment except Nintendo so how did you extrapolate that? I meant to imply that people play Nintendo because they like their games beautiful, meaningful, emotional, and deriving fun from finely crafted gameplay and audiovisual design instead of relying on the player's primal instincts. There are such games on all systems, but Nintendo has always been above and beyond everyone else in those aspects. And besides, I own PlayStation 1 through 4. (;

@Jeronan "Even my 6 year old son knows the difference between right and wrong, what is fiction and what is real. We didn't even need to teach him that. Every mental healthy person is hardwired that way when they are born."

Sorry for the late reply, but I'd rather say that every person is wired that way at birth, it's just that with enough strain, those wires can snap. I prefer to look at it that way as I like to think of people as inherently good.

Violent video games can certainly play a part in the snapping of wires. Because, truth be told, anything that can cause large amount of negative emotions can. The saving grace of video games is that it is generally a medium where violent impulses are released, which can have a relaxing effect, and not something that causes them to build up and ferment. The WoW link with that monster is interesting, as perhaps such a competitive game with a lot of indirect social interaction (likely very hard on a sociopath), is more likely to cause to latter.

I think it's very important to have the right attitude when interacting with a game. The most important factor is not taking things seriously. WoW can be a fun game I suppose, and was Breivik f***ed up before he even touched the game? Sure. But it's probably not the game someone like him should have been playing.

Thanks for reading. (:

Re: Amazon Germany Lists Flashback: 25th Anniversary Edition For June Switch Release

LemonSlice

@Monkey_Balls It's longer, and easier to complete. But that comment is lol. It took me years to complete Another World as I began playing it when I was like five; but it's very fun to blaze through the game nowadays, quite a ride even if you're familiar with all the obstacles.

Both Another World and Flashback have graphics and what we would nowadays call in-game cutscenes that were way ahead of their time, with Another World basically building upon the cinematic platformer foundations set by Prince of Persia, despite Chahi not having played the game during development.

@Jeronan "Games, movies, series don't make people violent. People become violent, because they are sick in their head and suffer a mental illness."

The violence they witness, whether through a display or real life, contributes to that. I wish the world would again focus on making wholesome entertainment.

Also wish parents wouldn't be so ignorant about which games they allow their kids to play. Problem though is, even if the parents are diligent, one friend with sicko entertainment and it can all come crashing down.

Re: Preview: Cracking The Case With Detective Pikachu On 3DS

LemonSlice

This is the kind of game I don't miss getting. So I'm basically getting it because I don't miss getting these kind of games. I'll enjoy it, but even if there's only one to trade I'd trade three of these for Dai Gyakuten Saiban.

That was more words than was necessary, because there were too many words. I'm sorry, which basically means I apologize.

Re: Next Week's European Splatfest Is All About Gherkins

LemonSlice

Gherk-out for me, but one thing I have the utmost distaste for is hamburgers, which is what they call cheeseburgers without cheese. Not a fan of tomato sauce either, unless it's mixed into a different sauce.

My perfect cheeseburger is one with cheese (duh), grilled beef, green salad, corn, pickled champignons, and sour cream sauce.
