it's because the Xbox one doesnt have enough RAM to support the extra audio tracks

Are you loving kidding me? At first I was okay ragging on the 'Bone and laughing at the dumb bastards that bought one, but now it's actively loving with my life. I just...don't even. gently caress the Xbox One.

Cool JRPG likers say that 13 gets pretty good when it oepns up, and then 13-2 is even better. I can;t wait until it's $2 or whatever.

new gauntlet is pretty good so far

it feels like gauntlet and magicka had a baby and did not name it diablo, which is cool

wizard seems a bit weird to use, but im sure some people will really like it

a++ would preorder again

FFXIII is garbage and the battle system is dead simple and I regret playing it instead of a good game like Persona3FES which I have only gotten around to recently.

its almost like games are a diversion to fill the huge amount of free time people have these days and you can play multiple different games even if you have other hobbies
