I didn't know about some easters in DN3D, good stuff for those who played it 7 times already.
The Wii's processor is called PowerPC

The PowerPC architecture is pretty ancient: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PowerPC
Hasn't been used in PCs for ages (and even then it was only Macs)
Yeah, Grim Fandango was tottaly on rails and click-based like Monkey Island... only in gaming you'll find "experts" that can't even get basic shit from the most popular titles right.Broken Age plays very much like an old-school point-and-click adventure; Rice used a mouse to play, and everything was very streamlined. There's a single icon for interaction—just hold the cursor over an object and click. The approach is simplified significantly from the "Push/Pull/Talk/Etc." options in adventure games past. Characters walk where you click, and move along pre-ordained "rails," just like in Monkey Island or Grim Fandango. You have an inventory. Sometimes you pick up objects from that inventory and click them on objects in the world. You get the idea: It's an adventure game.
Why was that a problem? Well…it just was because, games, y’know, should have, like, mechanics. Duh!

Classic strawman. Because apparently there's no middle ground whatsoever between violent, mindless shooter and pretentious walking simulator.Is Everybody’s Gone To The Rapture going to be a high-octane shoot ‘em up? I think you already know the answer to that. But if that’s what you love then don’t panic as there are plenty of games out there that will float your Uzi-laden boat.
And yet their writing and music is still utterly forgettable.The Chinese Room is unusual in that a writer and a composer head up the company.

At least CoD bros might be socially adequate and good to have a beer with. Be fair to the CoDbros, an average guy with shit taste in games is infinitely better than the pretentious cunts that make up gaming hipsterdom.Gaming hipsters are just as annoying as Call of Duty bros. It's like fucking Republicans and Democrats.
CoD bros are racist, sexist, homophobic assholes worth culling.
I dno, I think it might be a tie...At least CoD bros might be socially adequate and good to have a beer with.

It's ironic that she doesn't doesn't provide any argument for why this concept is outdated and/or laughable but criticises the opposition as lacking in substance and rationale. But it's not surprising since to her the concept only "seems" laughably outdated.Edge article said:This question rests on the idea that games are purely driven by mechanics and goals, and this seems laughably outdated as a concept.
But of course you do feel the need to call your product/whatever a "game", and get upset if people disagree.Edge article said:Why do we feel the need to classify and name and label before we can enjoy something?
And as it is on real politics, both are the same thing, the Republicans like to shoot things, especially things that walk in two legs and the Democrats acting intelectually superior and appealing to drama and hysteria every time their bullshit is exposed. CoD single player is like Dear Esther but with explosions and a mini game where you have to connect a dot on the center on the screen to other point in the screen, generaly something with a concave shape when you click once a number appear to reward you for connecting the dots. In case of Dear Esther, only a reactionary, racist,mysogenistic and illiterate wouldn't like the revolutionary and audacious idea of making an "videogame without game in it".Gaming hipsters are just as annoying as Call of Duty bros. It's like fucking Republicans and Democrats.
CoDbros have one of those things down pat, so I think they qualify.This "CoD bros" culture is completely alien to me, where I'm from playing video games is automatically linked to being an extreme nerd and manchild.
The review on that page is quite helpful...
