    Did you ever play...

    I got to play on an old Atari system a few times before it got completely lost or broken. I was a too young at the time to remember everything but I did remember a couple of games I enjoyed playing on it including elevator action and mappy.

    Any Castlevania fans out there?

    I never really got too much into this series nor paid it much attention until I found SOTN for PS1 which I admit I didn't find out about until way later on when I got to play it on an emulator on my PSP. I was really amazed at how much I've been missing out on and it made me wonder if there were...

    Any Tony Hawk fans here?

    I got to play some versions of it and it was fun but not really enough to make me addicted. I'm a fan of skateboarding and while I enjoyed my time playing this it wasn't the type of game that made me obsessed over it, though to be fair that could be said of a lot of games because I'm very picky.

    Our are mobiles ruining the mobile gaming industry?

    I think the difference between both will soon be minuscule. Right now Sony is looking into using cloud computing to bring gaming to tablets and TVs instead of having to depend on specific consoles, from what I know, but it may be a bit far away since internet speeds still aren't as great as they...

    New Next-Gen Fight Night Round 6 - Features Breakdown & Wishlist(1,2,3 of 4)

    I'm not much of a boxing fan but even I enjoyed the last FN game a lot, though I have to admit I enjoyed the single player story mode a little more than I did playing versus with friends so I think there is a lot of merit about what is being said in these videos.

    Speed Runs

    I don't like watching speed runs all that much unless I need to see how differently I could have played certain stages. If I'm watching for enjoyment I usually would prefer something that takes more time to enjoy the scenery but I can see how people might be in the mood for something faster...

    Re-mastered Call of Duty

    I recently just purchased the classic version of the ps3 CODWAW, but I haven't played it yet so I couldn't tell how much it holds up yet, but I have seen clips of it online and it looks like it is very fun. I'm sure it would be much better if I could get a lot more content on it though since...

    Good console games for someone returning to gaming?

    Games today are definitely way more complex, even I get tired of having to think of all the buttons I have to press sometimes lol. I don't think diablo is close to hack and slash games though, I think this particular genre is closer to the beat-em-up genre in the 2d era, but yeah it does have a...

    gaming on a budget...

    I think there are just much more choices now so some are able to fill the need for practical prices while some are able to indulge with selling a luxury item. From what I understand Steam always has great sales where you could get games for very cheap so I don't think there's a shortage of cheap...

    Types of gamers

    I've always been more of a casual gamer since I never really got addicted to any of the games that other kids got addicted to. I enjoy watching people play rather than actually playing myself, to be hoe honest, but there are definitely some games that bring out the obsessive hardcore gamer in me.

    Board Games?

    I have always loved. Monopopoly and I still do. We don't play it much anymore and admittedly we never really played it that much back then too just because it took too long but I personally love it enough that I even installed apps of it in my phone now and back when phones were a bit lower tech...

    Emulation

    I love discovering emulators and finding games for them, so much so that I don't actually play through all the games and instead just keep on discovering what is available. I had Dolphin emulator on my last laptop which unfortunately I think caused too much strain on it and broke it but I did...

    Good console games for someone returning to gaming?

    I think hack and slash games are very easy to get into so you might want to look into the good ones like DMC and god of war. I personally enjoy these a lot because the learning curve isn't that high and you don't have to focus too much to get to the end. After that you could move onto more...

    NES games = best ever.

    Mine would be Contra, but I never really played that many games on it, to be honest. I liked the next generation console games a little more. I did enjoy duck hunt and the few other gun games though. I wish I could still play them again today.

    Consoles or Emulators?

    I Also would prefer to use the original consoles if I can because emulators aren't always complete in features and sometimes a bit buggy with some games. Also the experience. Is just not as authentic. Although I am still very thankful that they exist because consoles can be a bit of a pain too...

    Most Annoying Video Game Character

    There was this one character in FF8 whose role was to be the annoying one. Even the main character was supposed to be annoyed with him, but I guess the fact that it was self aware of being annoying kind of lessened the effect for me, which I consider a good thing since it gives the character a...

    Your favorite generation of consoles?

    My favorite generation of games was ps2 era. I just found so many favorite games there and I thought they were all very unique and interesting. I even still consider them to be very innovative and unique in today's standards since a lot of the great games there were forgotten about and never remade.

    on your own?

    You're right, I think with this current generation of consoles companies are promoting online multiplayer over local way more, and yeah that is a little sad. I don't think the spirit of it is completely gone though, as everyone still enjoys playing with friends online, and a lot even make new...

    PlayStation versus Nintendo

    The head of Sony once said that they aren't in direct competition with the Nintendo and after reading his explanation I'd have to say I agree. They are just in completely different markets even though they both make video games. Nintendo is geared more towards families and children whereas ps is...

    Do you think the next Nintendo system will keep the "Wii" name?

    I would like something revamped just to have something fresh again, but I'm more assuming that they would keep the name just because it's so familiar to audiences by now. The only thing that would probably convince them otherwise is that their current brand is too similar to the old models so...
