Wild Arms for the PS1 was one of my favorites. I got so sad at the first credits thinking I messed something up and then the real game started and I was hooked. One of the best stories of all PS1 games imo.

Its packet loss, it has nothing to do with Ping or FPS. The network connection from myself to the Riot games servers is dropping packets somewhere along the way, resulting in the game stuttering. It feels like you get disconnected for 1-2 secs and then the game catches up. It only happens on...

The newest From Software releases in a couple months and I am stoked. From Software are the mind behind Demon's Souls, Dark Souls and Dark Souls 2. I can not wait to see what they bring to the table on a Next Gen console.

Anyone else fed up with the packet loss currently plaguing the North American League of Legends servers. I've been playing LoL for about 3-4 years now and I have never seen it this bad. It is currently unplayable for me.

I've actually been starting a set of tutorials for League, I just wrote up the first today. I decided to go one thing at a time and split it into sets. Things such as Zoning, Spacing, Trading, Teamfighting, etc. would be split into their own articles. If anyone wants to check out the first...

I hate it, it hurts my eyes. I also hate 3d movies though, so I am a bit biased. I am very glad you can turn it off, as otherwise, the system is great and I thoroughly enjoy it. I wish everyone would just abandon the while 3d thing and sink that money into VR R+D.

Personally I would rather spend like $10 on card packs to get started and horde my gold for arena. Arena is amazing, but at 150g a pop can get quite expensive if you don't do well.

I just downloaded the DLC and it adds quite a bit to the game. I was pleasantly surprised a $9 DLC added roughly 10-15 hours to my gameplay. I would recommend it to anyone. If you wish to learn a bit more about it, here is a sightly longer review I had written about it...

They have eliminated most of the RNG from Magic though. There are VERY few "flip a coin" type effects now. Usually cards are printed with an either/or effect, or they have additional abilities when requirements are met. You will never see a card like "Deal 1 or 2 damage (assigned randomly) to...

The original Elder Scrolls, Arena. It was HUGE. Like if you wanted to run from one city to another close by, it was hours. You also had access to the continent, instead of individual provinces like the later games. The RNG maps and quests provided some great gear too. The xp scaling was...

Fantasy Life is great, but its a recent release. There are always the classics, like Chrono Trigger. There was also A Link Between Worlds and The World Ends With You. The World Ends With You is not a 3ds game, its just a normal DS game but its great. I would highly recommend it.

Red and Blue will always be my favorites. The nostalgia is real. Playing at school vs other kids on the bus. It was also really the first game of its type so it has a special place in my heart.

I'd have to agree with this. Robin has a really weird playstyle compared to Marth/Lucina. His kill moves are slow and his juggle is unpredictable at best. His double jump is pretty subpar too.

I'm not a huge fan of the RNG approach. The game should be about outplaying your opponent. This should be done with interesting and unique game mechanics that interact differently in different situations. Sure, it's a huge pain to come up with, but its much better than RNG.

Interesting, I didn't know they released the Android version. I played during the beta and while it was fun, I found that the meta was very bland. There wasn't enough interesting mechanics to remove the rock/scissor/paper element of it. Now that its out on Android, I'll have to give it...
