Tons. All of the games that I've ever really liked, I can play over and over. The usual suspects are Chrono Trigger, the Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts series, Ico/Shadow of the Colossus, and Skyrim. I can do this with books, TV and movies too. Once I'm familiar with a piece of media it enters...

^Dang that thing is cute. It reminds me of the dango from the anime Clannad. There was a recurring "character" in Lost Odyssey, a little bunny-like thing that would pop its head out of a pot called a Pipot. I found them so cute and fun to run into! Every time I did I would squeal about it...

Good for you for doing something like this! Here is my advice. High quality audio/video, as good as you can get it. Enunciate your words - if you have had any theater training this should come easy, if not, I suggest looking up the basics :) Try to play a wide variety of games. Have a good sense...

You know, I can't really think of a single villain that truly made me despise them. The great thing about video game villains is that many of them are fairly deep characters with their own (somewhat understandable) motives - you often end up even liking them as much as the heroes. If I had to...

Kingdom Hearts 3 (unknown date), Final Fantasy XV (unknown date), The Last Guardian (unknown date), No Man's Sky (unknown date), Prey for the Gods (unknown date)... Yeah, my gaming future is looking pretty bleak. Thankfully I have a HUGE Steam backlog to get through before all these games drop! :D

Anything that's a game is a game. This haughty elitist "no it's not a game because it's short / you can play during bite-sized chunks of time" attitude is really destructive to the idea of games as an art form. It's true that mobile gaming may not be as hardcore or in-depth as something you'd...

VR? Well there is an AR (augmented reality) game coming out for mobile in 2016! That one I personally cannot wait for. I really hope it's anywhere near as cool as the trailer makes it look! Although it could be dangerous if people are running across the street or trying to get into unsafe...

This is a tough one. PS2 had some amazing games. If we were talking PSX and not just PS2, I would go with Chrono Cross (the semi-sequel to Chrono Trigger). If we're restricted to PS2 games only, then I'd have to say Final Fantasy XII and Kingdom Hearts/KH2 tie as my favorites. I find FFXII to...

I played Tera's North American beta. I liked the combat system and the graphics were beautiful, but the world and quests felt completely lifeless. I didn't meet any NPC I actually cared about in my tenure there, I just saw them as means to an end (that end being getting shiny loot from quests)...

I find that some death penalties are so harsh it's a deterrent to playing the game at all. The Japanese dungeon crawler system, for example, in which you lose all the loot you haven't carried out of the dungeon yet (similar to Dark Souls mechanics). Fire Emblem and FF Tactics mechanic of losing...

I had no idea this game existed but now I'm going to put it on my Steam wishlist. I think it looks great and very unique. The only problem I have with short games is that I feel so empty after they're over, like, "why isn't there more?"

I spent an inordinate amount of time in my youth playing SNES games. So I have a pretty long list... First up, the Squaresoft games: Final Fantasy VI and Chrono Trigger. Both timeless classics with strong story and great characters. Additionally, Radical Dreamers, a sort of visual novel...

I know Fallout has huge hype from pretty much everyone. To be honest, I've never even played a Fallout game :dead: I feel like I'm in the vast minority in that, but I've always preferred fantasy settings over post-apocalyptic. Still, I should definitely try it out this time around I guess. I've...

If a game is on Steam, I buy it there. If it's not, I go to Amazon...and if I suddenly find out about the release of a game I just can't live without, then I may resort to buying a physical copy at GameStop. Most of the time, I'll preorder a game I want through Steam or Amazon. But I have made...

They DEFINITELY can affect game sales. While I've never been convinced personally to buy a game by a youtuber, I have bought games at the behest of Penny Arcade. People do heed recommendations occasionally, especially from someone they feel has the same taste in games or sense of what is...

I'm reading that the NX might be a tablet, which is very interesting considering Nintendo's history with handhelds (hint: it's very good). If they completely back out of the home console market - which seems like it's on the way out anyhow - I wouldn't be very surprised. The Wii U did not do...

Big Final Fantasy fan that I am, I'm playing FFXIV (MMO) and FF:Record Keeper (mobile game) simultaneously :cat: The last non-FF game I've played is Broken Age on Steam. I love that game to death, still haven't finished it though. I'm stuck on a few puzzles, but I refuse to look up the solutions...

If we don't count MUDs or MUCKs (which were definitely games in their own rights), uhm...Furcadia? It was basically a MUCK but with graphics. Also, furries. :dead: It was kind of boring as the only things to do in it besides chat were build your own "dream space" with a number of predescribed...

I didn't play the Xbox a lot because I didn't own one myself. But my ex had one and we played Lost Odyssey together. If you are a JRPG fan and have access to a 360 GET THIS GAME. It is amazing, the story and characters are so good. It's in my top10 favorite games but unfortunately because it's...

I too love Pokemon, I think there must be very few people who actively dislike it. The last game I played was X and I quickly beat the game but I get bored with the grind after that so I didn't go further than building a perfect EV/IV Eeveelutions team...which I then quit leveling up because it...
