Octodad reminds me of ragdoll flash games. Mildly interesting in concept, but pretty much no way to make consistent enough controls to be a playable game.
“Microsoft has single handedly alienated the entire military. And not just the U.S. military — the militaries of the entire world.”
That is a very strange sentence to hear in reference to a game console, but then, this is the Xbox One we're talking about.
So Microsoft has decided to get rid of most of the terribleness. Yay?
Best response: "it's the Xbox 180".
Ooh, they actually removed region-locking.
This might be a good thing.
Do the PS4 or WiiU have region locking?
The PS4 doesn't have it. Not sure about the Wii U.
The Wii U does, unfortunately.
Thanks, Nintendo; I no longer really-really want to buy your console. Now I only kinda want to buy it. Problem solved.
Still not getting the PS4, though. Nor the Xbone.
Meh, Japanese-exclusive games tend to be obscure RPGs that I wouldn't bother with anyway.
Yeah Microsoft, I totally want to buy your console instead of the others who I can just set up and play offline forever!
These are the only kind of games I seem to bother with anymore though.
I'll just continue to throw money at indie localization groups like Carpe Fulgur.
Also, I thought the whole point of a game console was something that I could just plug into my TV, without caring about any internet connection bullshit.
Yeah, the console gaming market and the PC gaming market are definitely in two separate worlds. And this guy, for one, doesn't seem to understand that very well (or at least he really wishes these two worlds would become one).
So apparently if you live in 60% of the country, fuck you.
(this is a joke)
