    The Post Your Thoughts of the Moment Thread

    I give touchpads about another 3-5 years before they start fading away completely to capacitive touch screens on notebooks. They've always been a flawed input method either way.

    You get extra levels to play as Metal Sonic if you have both games. http://sonic.wikia.com/wiki/Sonic_the_H ... sode_Metal

    Anime Short Trailer For Pokémon Black 2 & White 2 Released

    Re: Anime Short Trailer For Pokémon Black 2 & White 2 Releas It'll be the same studio, but with a better budget. It helps that it's only a few minutes long. Sadly, any such example of anime cut-scenes with a theoretical Pokemon game would be closer to the more static and cheap tv series than...

    Anime Short Trailer For Pokémon Black 2 & White 2 Released

    Re: Anime Short Trailer For Pokémon Black 2 & White 2 Releas It would require a lot more depth than the games have so far managed for that to be worth it, really. Also, we've only just gotten to a point where localisation (ESPECIALLY for Europe) is at a sensible time scale - we don't really...

    There's a demo for every Xbox Live Arcade game. It's also due to be on PS+ for half price soon, too - but if you're like me and got the first episode on the Xbox, then there's no real value to that as you don't get the Metallix stuff. The trailers so far make it look far better than Ep 1...

    R.I.P. Donna Summer

    Donna Summer is an artist most people that visit this site are too young to even have heard of. But almost everyone here will pretty definitely have heard - and fallen in love with - her work on the second Pokemon movie as the singer of the main theme: The Power of One. Today, she passed away...

    Happy Mother's Day!

    Remember kids, you're only sanctioned to give a damn about X Parent on the Hallmark sanctioned Sunday with their title in it! Don't you dare spend that money on them at any other time, when you could bottle it all up and buy the tatty crap we put at the front of the shops once a year!

    New Black 2/White 2 Information from CoroCoro!

    If it weren't for these games being called B/W2, it wouldn't be referred to as a new season. It'd just be a new intro and a new 'saga' within Best Wishes, the same as they did for the Battle Frontier within AG. It's just an opportunity to tie the series into the games and start reintroducing...

    New Black 2/White 2 Information from CoroCoro!

    The new Genie form(e)s seem to be direct references to previous legendary Pokemon. Tornadus representing Lugia, Landorus representing Raikou and Thundurus's tail bearing a striking resemblence to Groudon's. But all that seems pretty arbitrary. I can't really come up with any link between them to...

    Wii U Discussion

    Will I buy it day one? Yes. I'm stupid like that. Will I find it to be a worthy investment? Well, that really will depend on what Nintendo is prepared to bring to the party. The console's interface and usability needs to be a million degrees better than their rubbish efforts on the Wii and 3DS...

    The General Computer Specs Thread

    My current spec isn't mind-blowing, but it's pretty good for what I paid in upgrades: Intel® Pentium(R) CPU G620 @ 2.60GHz Dual Core Processor 6GB DDR3 RAM nVidia GeForce GT 520 Graphics card 1x 500GB Hard Drive 1x 2TB Hard Drive Running 64-Bit Windows 8 and Linux Mint Next spare money I have...

    Details On Pokémon Black 2 & White 2's Global Link Given

    Re: Details On Pokémon Black 2 & White 2's Global Link Given The problem is more the awkward "You have to use it at this time or later every single day". If it were literally once a day - ie: any time between midnight and midnight, it'd be fine. Having to time your life around it, however...

    About 17/18 is the correct temperature. Everything else is a failure by God.

    Details On Pokémon Black 2 & White 2's Global Link Given

    Re: Details On Pokémon Black 2 & White 2's Global Link Given A whole four hours!!! OMG!!! Try a gap of four hours. Or, even better, one - or none. Always gotta be with the giving with one hand and taking away with the other, Nintendo. Always.

    Can Nintendo save themselves from themselves?

    It's been an insightful day for Nintendo fans. First Nintendo announced that starting with New Super Mario Bros. 2 in August, they'll be selling first party 3DS and Wii U games online in their respective digital storesalongside their physical retail copies from the day of release. Later, someone...

    Full retail games: how do you buy them?

    For PC games it makes near as damned no difference now anyway, the DRM generally means the games won't function when the servers are switched off anyway, so why not just go the more convenient route. Plus, not having to mess around with swapping discs around and the fact that Steam practically...
