I used to watch friends in my high school computer lab play Tetris at max speed. It almost caused me a panic attack and I wasn't even playing. They seemed to enjoy it.

Burnout was pretty solid. I didn't know there was a line of Forza games with that more "arcade" feel. Neat.

Yeah I'm terrible at real Forza, but the demo of Horizon lets me do what I excel at - driving like a twat while refusing to believe the brake is ever required and mentally deciding that I 'mean' to do everything that somehow gets pulled off. It's really fun and now I gotta decide to wait and buy it, or trade/sell G4W. It'll probably be the former, but I'll sleep on it.

You should play Tetris Battle Gaiden, that game is nuts.

Battle Gaiden's cool but I wish there were a way to speed it up.

I've never known anyone who owned a Vita that didn't like Japanese games to the point of being human garbage.
i own a Vita and I rarely buy games for it because too many of them are just not to my taste

the last one I bought I think was either Steinsgate or Trails of Cold Steel

the latter I won't play until I beat Trails SC on PC first

I'm glad DQ Builders exists on Vita although most Vita ports are trash it feels like, at least in terms of framerate

Do you feel it, Zach?
My coffee warned me about it.


There's some serious uncanny valley effect going on with some of the Mafia 3's faces. Also a lot of environment textures are low res while having detailed bump maps and it's pretty jarring. Also so far it crashes every 20 minutes or so.

you may be familiar with the Gai in gaiden from gaijin, meaning "foreign person". gai is outside, separate, things like that (jin being person here)

Yeah, and it'll be fine/nobody will care. They won't change the part of the game everyone remembers the most enough to change that, but they may throw in some additional scenes or throwaway dialogue in which Cloud accuses Barrett of it while they're trading barbs or Rufus tries to throw it in your face or something.

Hopefully they'll have added in some more gameplay nobody wants.

They did actually have to change the design of the game's devil character after people pointed out that giving an evil character pitch-black skin and big lips had really troubling connotations in America.
