Yep, that's the setup with my brother's laptop. He used to just use the laptop's, but we had an extra mouse and keyboard hanging around so he's currently using them. Pretty old, but it still does a better job than the laptop's own keyboard and mouse.

Well, if you do the Youtube stuff you can always humble brag about your items since people can see them. But unless you're a call center agent or an online tutor, I don't really feel like you should get expensive headsets just for kicks. It's not gonna help you get better in an online game...

Yup, learned my lesson. Won't buy a game now unless it's a sale and the game at least has a 50% discount. I'll check reviews too on Steam, the approval rating, I'll watch Youtube clips, then I'll purchase it when I like it. I'll play it for about an hour and if I have regrets, I'll just ask a...

Yep, basically virtual Lego with unlimited blocks in your arsenal. It's great for some but it's not for me. I prefer story rich games and one where I can just play as an adventurer. It's a lot more fun that way for me, since I get bored quickly when I'm in the same area of a game doing the same...

Yeah, it's always gonna be a bloodbath with that one person taking it too seriously. I can't let other people win though. If I'm playing a game with my brothers there's no way any of us are gonna let the others win just so we can enjoy ourselves. But hey, all we play are card games and snakes...

Huh. Well, I heard people complaining about that game because there's a ceiling for free-to-play players. Any time a game asks you real money to get an advantage - even if you don't need it - wouldn't be interesting to me. Especially in online games where you just know the people with the...

Yup. MMORPG - and especially one of the first huge MMORPG - is incredibly addictive. I don't think WoW had competition the scale and popular as them during the 2000s. Lots of stories about people getting addicted, stopping school activities, failing grades, selling their real life items for...

Yes, I agree. It's all about moderation. Also, you can't help yourself if you don't see what's wrong about sitting down and playing for hours at a time. It starts with you. For me the one thing that stopped me from playing that long for games is when I finished everything I can in the game, and...

The community is great. I've heard stories of high level players going to the starting area to help newbies craft their gear. That's not why I hate the game. There's just a lot of payments you have to make in order to play the game, and the DLC even costs over $50. One DLC. Then the subscription...

Yup. It's the same price for hard and soft copies right? And the Witcher franchise at least tried to add freebies when you get the game like posters, comics, and music. Too bad I can't appreciate them much since they're just files I can open and close on the PC. Holding an actual map of the...

It's not about being a cheapskate. It's about not having buyer's remorse and having all the games you want. It's a lot easier to wait for sales and pay for a game at $5 than buy it immediately at $20. It's just common sense. Why pay for that much when you can pay for less? That way, you can use...

Pretty clever lol. What's running a forum like? Is it more of a headache than it's worth? I've always wanted to start my own site/forum about anything but I figured I'd lose interest sooner or later and if I ever pay someone to make the site, it would just be a waste of money and time.

Go to forums more lol. They'll tell you when there's a freebie in any legit site that gives out steam codes. Or even when the game on Steam is free itself. Free games, so free cards, which means you can either create a badge or sell them for more credit. It's like a new game outside the games...

So which one should I get? Remake or the original? Any difference or is this remaster thing just purely graphics enhancement? And the randomness you mentioned reminds me of "the Director" in the Left 4 Dead games which also randomizes item locations and special enemy spawn locations. It also...

First memorable thing I had with the Gameboy (GBA for me) is when I discovered Articuno at the Seafoam Islands in Pokemon Yellow. It really blew my mind to see a legendary Pokemon in the game. Sure, I was enjoying all the references to the TV show, catching Pokemon and all that, but to have a...

Being a physical unstoppable force is all fun and games until a physically-immune boss comes along and all you can do is hopscotch your way into the next area to avoid being followed. The level 30 skill is great and all but without much grinding that barbarian would be easy target in Hell mode...

This game is still incredibly addictive even after a decade of being online. Holy crap, just read a story about four guys who were good in class, but got addicted to this game they got into debt, failed college, and now in an in-and-out job constantly. Yikes. All for a video game. Good thing I...

I have a huge bias for modern games still having pixel block graphics. Superficial, I know, but I don't appreciate the simplicity of pixels in today's games. Back then, sure. The games were limited by a lot of things and something like Space Invaders or Pong was a feat of gaming for its time...

Must suck though now that TF2 is getting a bit phased out by newer games like Overwatch. All those hours for a game and it's gonna end up dying. I've had about 500 hours on Dota 2 and even more on the original Dota 1, so I know the feeling of grinding out a game just to get better. At least Dota...

I agree, looking at physical copies of games is great, and having a collection that doesn't just show up on a program is fun, but the lifespan of those physical discs can just be a pain sometimes. One wrong move and you have to buy the game all over again since the game disc was scratched a bit...
