Re: Soapbox: "Go Outside, Get Some Fresh Air" - Why Won't Outmoded Gamer Stereotypes Die?

Personally, I don't get a lot of 'hate" since (most of) my friends (and most of their partners as well) play games themselves. With games for a more general public, such as Call of Duty and FIFA, I do feel that more people then ever play games. What I find mostly true is that the generation of my parents (now between 55 and 65) generally still have issues with hobbies and occupations that are practiced in front of a screen.

Re: Feature: Meet The 'Arzette' Dev Salvaging The Zelda CD-i Games' "Genuine Potential"

I remember playing The Faces of Evil on the CD-i, back then I wasn't old enough to buy my own console and my parents bought me the Philips console thinking it was the next bit thing. Oh, boy, we're they wrong. Me, being a kid, wasn't aware of what kind of monstrosity we had in our home so I "enjoyed" every game I could get my hands on. I remember the Zelda and Mario CD-i games were (and are) terrible, but nevertheless I played them thinking that they were complete products. To this day I never played this games. I might just buy Azerette to check it I can get some flashbacks of the old days. All and all together I think just even making this game is either brilliant or really genius.
