How thin does it have to get before everyone says "this feels shitty"? I have a few mechanical keyboards at home and at work and I can't imagine always having to use one of these new keyboards with zero throw. It makes me fee

Those giant robots are years away from having the mobility needed for entertaining combat. I feel like we peaked with BattleBots nearly 20 years ago, early on before the spinning doom meta took over. There was fun stuff like that bot that h

It's a niche more because of initial cost. The Quest seems to be a good standalone bridge for people who want to get into it. It's definitely not a gimmick. Everyone I've had try my Vive are blown away by it. Motion sickness

I think one of the best things they did was make electric cars cool. For so long Prius had the rep of a dorky car for hippies.

With the 24 hour news cycle, I've started regarding large popular news-o-tainment companies in the same vein. CNN/FOX are just as bad as assuming some egg on twitter is reporting unaltered truths.

I would rather be less involved with these credit companies. I recently spent about a month getting some BS off my Experian account. Whenever you're on hold you need to sit through around 10 minutes of commercials for their data protec

I feel like Zelda 1 & 2 have some dead ends that would be really frustrating. Maybe if it was a true remake, not just a reskin or something.

Fun to watch, frustrating to play. That's why I'd recommend the youtube versions of these. There are parts in Thunder in Paradise that look nearly impossible with the Phillips CD-i controller, and I think you'd need the rarer

It's a toss up whether I want money going to the dev or publisher rather than someone selling their game. With the way that prices drop drastically, sometimes not even a few months after, I'm fine with the current model. The only

You're better off watching the cutscenes on youtube, the game is truly terrible. Also the CD-i focused on "interactive media" rather than what most would consider a good game. Hulk Hogan's "Thunder in Paradise"

I can't imagine Valve won't find some loophole or way around this. Being able to resell digital games would destroy that economy. A possible outcome would be games in France are never on sale and they can only be traded within the
