You should give PC gaming a try once in awhile I can't think of a time where Steam went months without new games.

Judging from the reviews (and the demo) Smash 4 is a sequel that improves the mechanics from Brawl in basically every way.

Smash 4 is much better than Brawl. It also is a very trim game having no excess modes that weighed the other game modes down.

I tried Diablo 3 and it was an awful grind of right clicking poo poo and getting rare drops except it's not an MMO so what's the point because you can't gloat your E-cred over a billion pubbies. I was intensely bored after the first few hours and never played again, hell even multiplayer was boring.

All the people griping about 3D Mario World and nintendo games etc. probably have no friends and that's why they play steam games, as a substitute for real friends.

Diablo 3 sucked, but Reaper of Souls/Ultimate Evil Editions are amazing in every way.

Path of Exile and ROS are neck and neck with each other in quality. They succeeded where Torchlight 2 failed.

They took away the Permanently Continuously Exploding Wizard build, and for that I can never forgive them.

Yeah I guess that is more correct.

Although Nintendo is probably going to be in a state of confusion since their first anime titty game(bayonetta 2) fails, while their other upcoming anime titty game(Smash bros 4) succeeds.

Also Edge gave Watch dogs an 8 out of 10.

Neither publications are very honorable~
What did they give GTA 5 and SR 4? Cause it's worse than either of those but it's hardly dumpster poo poo. Just worse than a lot of readily available alternatives.

Personally I would rate it slightly above "mediocre" but my standards are pretty goddamn lax. And trying to figure out what number is actually the middle is its own loving nightmare since people tend to see them like school grades or some dumb poo poo.

Should be time for Nintendo shareholders meeting soon, so we'll get our quartley "still not profiting" announcement. Last time we got a new Pokemon announcement right after to soften the blow, wonder if they have anything cool this time.
