    Favorite Smash Brothers Character?

    Roy from the Gamecube version, and I prefer him over Marth so much. Marth might be faster, but I like doing more damage. Plus, he's slightly more difficult to use since he's slower. I like the challenge. Otherwise, I'd say Link is my second favorite character from those games.

    Rate the Gamecube on a 1-10 scale

    Based on the incredible first party games Nintendo released alone, I would give the Gamecube a 9. When everything else is considered, I'd dial it back to a 7 or an 8. It was a great console, and back then it better competed with Microsoft and Sony, despite the limited hardware.

    Dune 2 - A building of a dynasty

    Dune 2 was definitely a masterpiece. I don't remember too much about the game, but I remember dabbling in the game way back when. I'd play it again today if I had the chance. I'm a huge fan of RTS games, though, so that shouldn't surprise anyone.

    Which Mario Party Game Should I Buy?

    If I recall correctly, I loved every Mario Party game for the Gamecube. I don't even remember how many of them there were, though. I also don't know how much they cost. Couldn't you just emulate all of the MP games without paying anything? Then again, I completely understand the draw of owning...

    What would you do

    I would be perfectly okay, to be honest. It would only be a hassle in so much as I would have to get a new hard drive. That's not the most difficult task in the world, though. I have plenty of games on consoles, and then it's easy enough to restore my Steam library. I'm not worried about losing...

    Browser-Based Games

    I play browser based games every once in awhile, but I usually don't play the same one more than a couple times. I use them to waste time more than anything else. I'd honestly rather play console or PC games, but nothing is quicker than starting up a browser game and then quitting whenever I...

    What's your favorite MMORPG?

    I'd have to go with WoW or Guild Wars. I've put a lot of time into both MMORPGs over the years. I've moved toward other genres of games in recent years, though. I don't have all the time in the world to play MMOs any longer, so other genres are just more accessible to me and my time constraints...

    Early Access on Steam

    I don't have any particular recommendations, although I do think Steam Early Access is mostly a positive thing. Of course, the actual price of a given title makes the difference here. Some Early Access titles are barely updated, and it's like the developers give up on their project. Those are...

    Dishonored

    Dishonored is a great game if you can get into the story, but it just wasn't my type of game overall. The mechanics and everything else were solid, though. I never experienced any major glitches or bugs that broke the game or anything. I did enjoy going through some of those harder levels using...

    Is anyone else getting tired of farming games?

    Some of the classic farming games are still great, although most games coming out now in that particular genre are terrible. Obviously, everyone wanted to capitalize on the success of those first few games, and they muddled the genre into a bunch of monotony and disappointment. It happens with...

    Bet you can't find something better than the nvidia shield tablet for mobile gaming

    Well, technically speaking, the Apple iPad Air 2 offers better single core and multicore processing than Nvidia's SHIELD. It doesn't have the streaming features, but the performance, especially in graphics, is a step above the Tegra K1 processor...

    Why do you think the Wii is more popular than Kinect?

    You guys are missing the obvious fact that the Wii and Kinect 1.0 or Wii U and Kinect 2.0 aren't valid comparisons. That's comparing an entire console with motion control and a peripheral that tries to do a lot more than it actually can. There are a lot of reasons why the Kinect doesn't work...

    Wii U hard drive space

    Yeah. That's one of the major flaws of the Wii U. At least with the Playstation 4, you can get up to 6TB of storage by using a special housing and a 3.5" HDD instead of a 2.5". I don't know what you can do about the Wii U, though. 32GB isn't nearly enough, and that wasn't even enough for the...

    Annoyances with the PS4

    The PlayStation 4 is a pretty solid console, but the user interface falls a little flat if you ask me. Otherwise, you might find PSN down a little more than you'd like, especially compared to Xbox Live. Then the only issues will come down to the individual games and whatever bugs are affecting...

    Favorite 3DS Games?

    Definitely Mario Kart and Zelda A Link Between Worlds. squallsnake is right about going with almost any first-party Nintendo game because the company has really be producing some great content through its actual properties. Even the Wii U is getting some incredible games that are far superior to...

    Zelda Majora's Mask remake

    It doesn't affect me at all, although I do know people that are adamant about inverted controls. I only like that option in games that involve flying to be honest. Still, I'm very excited about the Majora's Mask remake. I loved the previous Zelda game for the 3DS that was an entirely new game.

    Left 4 Dead 3?

    L4D3 is happening, but it might not happen for a few years at this point. Surprisingly enough, Payday 1 and 2 are the closest L4D experiences you're going to get because they're almost the same game, except you rob stores and banks instead of killing zombies. A mission in the original Payday...

    Top choices for PS3 games?

    The Tales of [Insert Title Here] games are pretty good RPGs, although some of them are kind of weird. The Infamous titles are decent, and you could always go with The Last Of Us. I'd go with the Uncharted games, too. I mean, there are tons and tons of games you could choose from, whether you...

    Thoughts on Far Cry 4?

    Far too many people said that FarCry 4 seemed to similar to FarCry 3, but they're different beasts entirely. FarCry 4 is a vast improvement over its predecessor, especially in graphics and things to do in the open world. I love that game far more than I ever cared for its predecessor.

    Can you gift mobile games?

    Exactly. You can send them Google Play Store gift cards or iTunes gift cards (which I believe work for apps purchases). There's no way to simply gift someone a specific game, although that wouldn't be a bad idea to implement in the future. It probably just adds annoying overhead for Google and...
