I think it's because it was different. The blocky graphics reminiscent of 80s arcade games, with first person modes as well as an open world environment, really made a big impact on players who saw it for the first time. It also unleashed the player's creativity via the building blocks, where...

We have a laptop in the house that one uses for gaming. It's not as good to be quite honest, and for nearly $600 a laptop should at least do a little bit of gaming. This one heats up quickly, has compatibility problems, and has a small screen. I'd rather have my PC any day. The keyboard and...

It's actually quite relaxing. When you have a hard day, you can always dive into a different universe where killing monsters is like a daily thing. It makes your mind rest up a bit by not having to think analytically, worrying about problems, and all real life situations. It also is perfect for...

I never played the Mass Effect franchise because I was never really a fan of space, future themes, and aliens. I prefer the sword and shield, with magic and dragons to boot. So of course, my favorite role playing game is Skyrim. Logged nearly a thousand hours there over the years, and sometimes...

Well my graphics card alone is around $300. Add that to the upgrades I made through the years and you're looking at a decent sum. For games, I don't think I spend much (compared to others) since I usually wait for sales to get in on the action. I won't purchase games unless it's 60% off at...

Yeah I read about it online, they even had a device that combined PC, Xbox, and PS4. I was intrigued, but then I remembered there are only few games I want to play that are not on the PC. Those exclusives have a long history, so if I was to play a more recent one, say God of War 4, I'd have to...

If you mean "vintage" as in arcade games in the 80s, then you're gonna have to pay a lot because they have become some sort of memorabilia to collectors, so you'll have to compete with them. If you're talking about "vintage" as in a Playstation 1 or 2, a GBA, then you can probably get those in a...

Resident Evil 4 had many awesome death scenes. From Leon being strangled to death by a burning man from a refrigerator (it works in context), being decapitated, being hugged to death by a monster with spikes, being sprayed with acid; you get the idea. It as a fun game but I was a bit curious as...

I played Injustice 1 and I wasn't blown away to be honest. It's just a fighting game with DC heroes, but the finisher has to be applied at the very end, meaning you really don't need to do it to finish off the enemy. The environment was breakable, but I think it was too "script oriented" to be...

Sure, if I know the people on the other side of the screen. If I don't, I'll most likely just stick to playing seriously, since I'm not really comfortable talking to strangers and doing small talk. If it involves the game, for example pointing orders or playing as a team, then yes, communication...

I really can't decide. On one hand, there are lots of great titles out there that have at least 60% discount. On the other, I don't like spending my little Steam credit on stuff because I might need it later on the sale on something I really want. So, it's just the waiting game for me right now...

I heard great things about this game but I never really found any motivation to do it. It's the third game of the franchise, right? I really don't follow the story of the franchise, so I'm afraid I'll be lost in the story if I ever tried it. Lots of reasons to do it though, like the game being...

There's a store near me that has updated hardware and even has connections to US and Japan. So if I ever need a specific piece of hardware, I would just ask them and if they don't have it, I'll leave a deposit so they can get one from their stores in Japan and US. It's pretty neat, I don't have...

I have a basic rule: Racing/platform/nba/wrestling/fighting games: Controller. Strategy/first person shooters: Keyboard and mouse. It's that simple. Playing these games with the opposite device would be a pain, and the gameplay experience would be severely compromised.

None; I hate watching other people play for more than a few minutes. I can see mistakes the do, and I'd be annoyed since I can't do anything about it. I've been more of a loner player; single player games and all that. I also get motion sickness rather quickly, so the idea of me watching someone...

I watch YouTube clips on sample gameplay and all that. I check system requirements to see if my PC can handle it. I don't want my PC's specs to be the reason I couldn't enjoy a game. Then, when all these check out, I wait for a Steam sale and get it. Then I play. If it's not to my liking, I can...

They are almost finished with the first installment of Skywind though. Or was it Skyblivion? It takes you outside the borders of Skyrim and you get a DLC sized area to roam around on what basically is the edge of Cyrodiil. I saw the gameplay trailer and they even added lore items and weapons, so...

I've heard of it, but I'm not really that excited to play a dictator though. Also, the company who made Tropico made Celtic Kings, a game from the 2000s which I really enjoyed. But that still was not enough for me to try out the game. I guess the premise is too much for me.

Space Impact. Yes, the one from the Nokia 3210. I haven't touched mobile games since then because I had a computer shortly afterwards, and I never looked back. Do I miss mobile gaming? No. I have a smartphone now but I only use it to play music whenever I am outdoors. It's more battery efficient...

I have a Plantronics headset that's worth about $25 and I've had it for over a year now. Still in perfect condition; the microphone is excellent and the headphones deliver crisp sound, and the padding for your ears are comfortable as well. All in all, I'm pretty satisfied with the product, and I...
