Nope. I'm very strict when it comes to money management, and I've learned to refrain from impulsive and unnecessary purchases. Every time the idea crosses my mind, I put off the purchase for a day or two: most times I just either lose interest or realize how dumb of a choice that would have...

I've always been a sucker for music, and that probably contributed to fuel my passion for videogames. I believe soundtrack to play a huge role in defining a game's style, just as much as art style. Music is capable of manipulating your feelings and mood without you even noticing it, and it can...

I'm totally against them. I consider them equal to DLCs, since they usually provide a similar experience. DLCs, however, can sometimes give access to a remarkable amount of new content (see The Witcher 3's expansions), whereas micro-transactions cannot. This already puts them under a bad light...

Uuh... I feel so out of place here with my laptop GPU. It's an AMD 8550G card, it's the AMD 5550M APU's integrated card. It doesn't even have any dedicated memory, but it can take up to 4 GB from my 8 GB of RAM. It doesn't work well at all with the latest games, it just straight up crashed with...

f we're talking about the original Gameboy/Gameboy Color, then I'll go with Pokémon Crystal. Definitely the most content-filled and entertaining Pokémon game on both systems. The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons/Ages are both very good games, they're incredibly polished as GB games. As for the...

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. I was in pretty much the same position at his age, so I can understand him. He's still young, and every suggestion will sound as a scolding to him. You start to think no one can understand you, and you react by acting in the opposite way. He will realize it as time...

Oh, definitely. Both the GBA and the GBA SP sold incredibly well, and the fact that it's still a pretty recent device, all in all, combined with the above average availability makes it ideal to buy even now. Obviously you'll have to go with second-hand devices, but if they're good enough to be...

Yup, that's for the best. I already panicked the first time I opened up my laptop to clean things out, and somewhere inside me I always get the fear that it won't turn up ever again, so it's better if I let a professional do it.

Yeah, same here. Sure, the Internet is an awesome place to adventure in, but it can't be compared to real life. What I've noticed is that this has greatly damaged by social interaction skills. Sometimes I'm just fine, but sometimes I lock up and feel the need to run away to collect myself. I've...

Yeah, I loved my PSP too, despite what everyone says about it. What made it even better was native support for PSX games (well, the ones on the store, at least). Plus, the fact it had a pretty big screen is what made me appreciate it more than any other handheld console from a hardware point of...

I don't think there are enough reasons to justify this upgrade to me. I don't use the 3D feature anyway, so no point in doing that just for the improved effect. The only two New 3DS-exclusive games (the retail ones, at least) are Xenoblade Chronicles and the soon-to-be-published Fire Emblem...

God, yes, it happens a lot of times. The worst/best thing about it is that I always mix the dream I just had with my memories, and... well, it's not that pleasant when you dream about getting the best equipment in the game or when you make up cutscenes or events that will never happen. It makes...

It depends on the kind of accessory. I usually prefer wired ones because I prefer not to worry about batteries and charging, and that's why I usually buy wired keyboards and mouses (I don't use them far away from the screen, anyway). Furthermore, even wireless devices take up a USB slot, so I...

Now that I think about it, that's what I miss the most about PC gaming while playing on handhelds. I've grown so used to multitasking that it has become natural to me, I always switch around tabs for different purposes. Versatility is exactly the word I'd describe PC gaming with. Another upside...

Oh, right, I almost forgot about YouTube let's plays. The hunger for popularity plays a huge role there, it's all about doing and saying what most people will like. I hate how so many youtubers (especially the younger ones) just scream around to gather views. It's sad, really, and, as you say...

Not necessarily. Obviously, though, when you think of a PC game Steam immediately pops up, whereas the idea of an Android game makes us think about simple time killers, so the latter will surely be easier to program. However, the same game would be easier to develop as a PC game: testing is way...

As everyone else said, yeah, love is a strong word. I don't think I've ever had a crush on any character, either, at least not physically. I mean, the first character who comes to mind is GLaDOS. Maybe I'm a bit masochistic, but I really adored her. I don't think I could feel attracted to a...

I'm a Nintendo supporter, but don't forget that the Wii U sold very well in its first year, too. What killed it in the long run was the lack of major third-party games compared to its direct competitors (PS4 and Xbox One), and that was due to hardware limitations. The Switch could potentially...

Game developer wannabe who failed to keep up here. I'm no expert, but I know a few things you should keep in mind to start: Start with small projects: Don't start big. Really, don't. You don't have the knowledge to make anything big enough, and, even if you somehow managed to go on and learn...

It's hard to pick a worst console, there's always at least a dozen of games worth playing. However, buying a DSi was one of my worst purchases ever. I really thought that camera to be the coolest thing ever, and it looked so much slimmer than my original DS. Instead, it didn't even have a GBA...
