Re: NSPCC Believes Pokémon GO is "Susceptible To Being Hijacked" By Those That Could Harm Young Players

@PieNinja Do you even know junk media? They fearmonger against Muslims all the time for the actions of the extremists, often citing attacks where innocent Muslims are the victims. Then they turn the other cheek when their own people do it, and publish some clickbait instead. I'm an atheist gamer, and the Muslims and us are in it together. The sane ones anyways.

Re: Round Up: First Mighty No. 9 Reviews Suggest The Wait Hasn't Been Worth It

Eurogamer liked it, but really, it looks like a quality rehash from the 2000s. Might get it when the price gets reasonable, but certainly not until then. After all the money and time Comcept got this is underwhelming. At least Double Fine knows what they're doing. Still looking forward to ReCore though, but I think I'll wait for the reviews to come in on that one.

Re: Nintendo Outlines Key Goals to Ensure NX Success

Whatever's going on in their minds, don't listen to the fanboys here, and get it right. Keep doing what you're doing with the exclusives (except Metroid) but make your x64 processor comparable at the least, and catch up on networking. Like it or not, Ocarina of Time or Xenoblade would not have happened on Super Nintendo hardware, and even a little eye candy doesn't hurt. And for the love of Samus, stop acting like every non-Mario game is a bloody dudebro chugging a Doritos and Mountain Dew smoothie. If you don't like Halo or Uncharted to each their own, but you don't see me calling Zelda a game for 4-year-olds. Cause unlike you, I'm grown up.

Re: 3DS System Version 11.0.0-33 is Now Available

@Yoshi Exactly, it reminded me of how things aren't much better. Friend codes, no friend messaging (scratch that, that's a regression), system-based purchases, no automatic DST for those unfortunate enough to be bound by it, et cetera.

I really hope their next handheld's system software is better than this. I was trying to download Donkey Kong Country on my old Wii yesterday and it took a couple hours of waiting and restarting the system before it finally worked. Sure, most of that's server side, but it's not like it was very good to begin with. Nintendo needs to get with the times, fast.

Re: Video: Digital Foundry Shows Off the New 3DS Improvements in Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate

Vincent294

Impressive. While the gains aren't consistent (lack of GPU improvement outside of VRAM [hence the better textures] is likely the bottleneck), they're there. I wonder if all 3DS games will be able to take advantage of this one day, like the aforementioned homebrew allows. Still won't get one of these (gotta save up for a new laptop), but I'd definitely recommend spending the extra buck if you don't have a 3DS already.

"There is no other way, the only path is stability!"
"But brother, why?"
"We need stability, nothing else!"
"What about friend messag-"
"Don't go there!"
"And-"
*ascends to a higher form and unleashes stability onto the land *

Re: Metroid Prime: Federation Force is Coming Sooner Than Expected

@JaxonH 1: Metroid Prime: Federation Force
2: See my comment above on the art style of this game
3: Before you get overly defensive again, remember that I'm not dissing the gameplay or asking for the game to be cancelled. I only expected it to be delayed to reevaluate it like Miyamoto and the great team at Platinum did Star Fox Zero. At least the story won't be bad like Other M, which also had good gameplay.

@aaronsullivan Just saying, Persona Q had a way better take on the Chibi art style than this, not to mention the franchise being a thousand times better suited. That said, now that we've seen the gameplay Next Level Games did not disappoint. Still think I'm gonna skip this one, guess I'll have to go with Halo for my sci-fi fix. As far as art's concerned, it's the closest thing.
