3 months ago Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 review
I went and paid for the original WHY, now? Seriously, if it was DLC, that would kinda tick me off, because it would make me think they released a game without finishing it, for full price, only to charge more in steps later for the completed game. THIS though, just kinda seemed like a big ol' middle finger to me.

"Oh! You bought the original game? Guess what! Now we're releasing a NEW game that's basically the same thing, but with 12 new characters that you don't have access to unless you fork over even MORE money!"

Yeah, yeah, I know that's not exactly the case, and maybe I'm overreacting to it, but seriously, not even a year later, and this happens? It just feels wrong to me, like they're taking advantage of the consumers.

Oh, PETA, you so CRAZY. :P It's almost adorable, if it weren't for the fact that your brand of crazy is the kind that is more annoying than anything.

Man, I can't wait to play this. Having a bit of a conundrum though, in that I can't decide between getting the PC version, since my laptop likely can't handle it well, and will probably lag out the ass, but with mod access, or the Console version, which will definitely run smoother, but with no chance to ever mod the game, and truly bend the world of Skyrim to my will.
5 months, 1 week ago Star Fox 64 3D review
I got it yesterday, and spent a good part of last night playing it. I couldn't figure out really any difference between the N64 version, and the new "balanced" version, but after trying both, the whole thing was still pretty fun. I gave the multiplayer arena battles a shot, and they seem pretty solid, but I was disappointed about the lack of Wi-Fi in this game. It's definitely a good thing I know some others with 3DS systems to play with. Otherwise, I have to say, I would have been really disappointed overall. While the game is great, and the work put in to remaster it really shows and pays off, and the 3D worked better than most other games I've played thus far throughout the whole game, for $40? Really? I guess the main reason I can recommend it to others is because I want to see the game become a common enough sight to be able to play with a lot of random people locally, since there's no online playability. Really, that alone would make this game more than 20% cooler to me.

I am glad to have gotten a 3DS on release day all the more now. Really, I only did because my DS was screwed up and I couldn't use the L or R buttons at all, so I needed a replacement and went for the upgrade, but this is a great added bonus!

Ain't gonna lie, this article, in all it's psyco-schizophrenia, just made my day.

First off, @db1331, you've actually got a good idea going there, even if some may say it's a little harsh. If we as a whole populace need to re-prioritize how we spend our money, what better way than to introduce punishment for making mistakes? As I said though, this may seem harsh to some, but if we're spending the money we should be spending on food instead on crap we have no use for, our priorities need to be observed and altered, and this is a good method. Teaching the people to do so by having this targeting as a consequence definitely works to that end.

Now that that's out of the way, I have to admit, this article pretty much floored me when I read it. I knew about the Prometheus stuff already, but I didn't even think about the rest of what was there in the game before this. Kudos to Valve for putting that much depth in (assuming it was all intended to be that deep). Definitely going to share this with some colleagues of mine.
