01:15:10 Death Penalty
Ah, if it's for piracy I don't care to use it.
01:14:48 Death Penalty
Which probably answers that for you.
01:14:22 Death Penalty
What's a flashcart?
01:10:53 Death Penalty
I tore my room apart.
01:10:48 Death Penalty
It was sitting on my computer desk right in front of me the entire time. Literally six inches away and two inches down from the screen I've been staring at for the entirety of this conversation.
01:10:07 Death Penalty
Just spent the last fifteen minutes frantically looking for my 3DS.
01:09:54 Death Penalty
So.
01:05:39 Death Penalty
It's not? Boo.
01:04:13 Death Penalty
If I'm lucky it'll be on the online store.
01:01:19 Death Penalty
Believe it or not Connor, your enthusiasm is what's making me consider it.
01:00:52 Death Penalty
I wish. Too broke to worry about the plan fee on a smart phone.
01:00:29 Death Penalty
Seeing as I always have games on my plate, playing Ace Attorney will most likely result in another game not getting played. Therefore, deciding against Ace Attorney does not result in a net loss.
00:58:09 Death Penalty
You and Em are intelligent enough that I would consider setting aside my doubts.
00:57:48 Death Penalty
Let me check on the price.
00:57:10 Death Penalty
That's silly. You could argue the same thing for the game I choose against in its favor.
00:56:09 Death Penalty
Still, the first game must be dirt cheap by now.
00:55:49 Death Penalty
I'll probably spend that time playing games that appeal to me without convincing, so I wouldn't consider it a loss.
00:48:05 Death Penalty
Case 1 wasn't selling me, so maybe this will.
00:47:57 Death Penalty
Okay.
00:45:04 Death Penalty
Will echo the sentiment on Read Dead Redemption. Phenomenal game.
00:44:44 Death Penalty
Can you tell me about the gameplay a little then?
00:40:47 Death Penalty
I'm not sold, and would appreciate further extrapolation if you don't mind.
00:40:31 Death Penalty
Tell me why it's fun, please.
00:40:20 Death Penalty
Hm.
00:38:36 Death Penalty
If it's available on the 3DS' online store though, I will consider purchasing it and playing it on your recommendation.
00:37:50 Death Penalty
I don't even know how an Ace Attorney game plays.
00:36:23 Death Penalty
It's amazing.
00:36:19 Death Penalty
Also Em, I highly recommend Valkyria Chronicles, yes.
00:35:37 Death Penalty
It's hard to look negatively on your first one. I know I have trouble disliking VII in any respect, even though I can see how poorly it's aged.
00:32:25 Death Penalty
I'm glad you do, Connor. It sucks when your favorite game developer spends over half a decade on a game you don't like.
00:30:38 Death Penalty
They may be what kept me going for as long as I did, because woah. I never read one of them and was sorry for the time I spent.
00:30:13 Death Penalty
The writing in the side stories though? Brilliant.
00:29:54 Death Penalty
I was with it until the story took some twists and turns that made me just put the controller down and never look back. The story was the only reason to play it.
00:29:10 Death Penalty
I too was just saying.
00:27:39 Death Penalty
Lost Odyssey was one of the mediocre ones if you're asking me.
00:27:22 Death Penalty
Ni no Kuni I hear is pretty swell.
00:26:18 Death Penalty
Valkyria Chronicles was great. I'm... having trouble naming others.
00:24:44 Death Penalty
I found pretty much all the JRPGs this gen incredibly mediocre.
00:23:58 Death Penalty
But here's hoping the PS4 puts forth more of them. I want to see the genre grow and succeed.
00:23:35 Death Penalty
Not that the 360 had more, as you said.
00:23:29 Death Penalty
The PS3 felt significantly lacking in JRPGs to me. It... really hurt. It's my favorite genre.
00:22:59 Death Penalty
...Why would I care if the disk is in the drive or not. That's such a weird restriction.
00:21:58 Death Penalty
Also, I hate Call of Duty.
00:21:53 Death Penalty
You cackle at Call of Duty when it's guaranteed to have sold more than anything you like better.
00:20:45 Death Penalty
Those fifteen exclusives better be quality shit.
00:20:37 Death Penalty
Yeah man. It's all library to me, from here.
00:19:07 Death Penalty
If that's true then their online requirement is just... so baffling.
00:18:57 Death Penalty
But...
00:18:05 Death Penalty
Oh? I didn't see anything on that. Clue me in Jake?
00:16:32 Death Penalty
If they reveal that used games are still allowed I'm just going to be scratching my head until I hit brain.
00:14:58 Death Penalty
Sony has already confirmed that there is no requirement to be online if I recall.
00:12:42 Death Penalty
I'll still be choosing my next-gen console based on games, but so many others will be turned off by this. And you know what? I don't blame them one bit.
00:12:15 Death Penalty
However, I am not optimistic.
00:11:19 Death Penalty
I'm hoping that further clarification will reveal that the console does not in fact lock you out after twenty-four hours.
00:10:51 Death Penalty
I guess that's basically my thought too, Jake.
00:10:11 Death Penalty
I'm curious too. If you didn't decide to go always on, why did you choose to half-ass it? Just to combat used games?
00:08:46 Death Penalty
It's not a wise decision or one with the users in mind, I agree.
00:04:35 Death Penalty
I can't name someone off the top of my head that I know who doesn't have internet, though.
00:04:20 Death Penalty
Neither have I. Microsoft has done the research though, I'm sure.
00:01:51 Death Penalty
I guess the only thing would be if your ISP has a severe outage or you do not have internet.
00:00:59 Death Penalty
(har har)
00:00:49 Death Penalty
So the natural disaster thing doesn't really hold water.
23:55:39 Death Penalty
...I guess though that if a blizzard leaves you without internet it'll probably leave you without power too and you wouldn't be able to play the Xbox One anyway...
23:51:22 Death Penalty
I'm guessing though that with offline capabilities built in, it's only a matter of time before people crack the console.
23:49:31 Death Penalty
That's punishing the consumer who legally bought your product, and that's a move I never agree with.
23:49:13 Death Penalty
Say you live in the midwest and there's a blizzard though, and then all access to your Xbox One is cut off.
23:48:36 Death Penalty
Shitty internet doesn't really factor into the equation, though. If you only need to check in, it doesn't matter how shitty your net is as long as there is net for that once a day check.
23:47:44 Death Penalty
It's no secret that everyone was against it.
23:47:39 Death Penalty
That's what I'm saying, Em.
23:46:47 Death Penalty
Look how overwhelmingly negative it is.
23:46:02 Death Penalty
Microsoft shouldn't have done this based on the user reaction alone.
23:45:42 Death Penalty
But my agreeing with you comes from this:
23:45:30 Death Penalty
By definition it's not always online, but I just can't avoid agreeing with you Jake. I don't think this is a disaster at all. I think 99.9% of the people bitching would never see an issue.
23:41:50 Death Penalty
So that's what was in those Terms of Use I didn't bother to read...
23:39:17 Death Penalty
It's never happened to me, but that doesn't mean it happens to no one. I don't live in an area with blizzards, tornadoes, etc. I'll have to see the consequences for not signing in for over twenty-four hours, but that part seems pretty bad.
23:35:47 Death Penalty
The valid complaint for me is internet outage for a span of a day or more.
23:32:18 Death Penalty
That is by no means at all unfeasible or terribly inconvenient.
23:32:07 Death Penalty
The irony is that every single person bitching about it is doing so online.
23:03:08 Death Penalty
I did not know this. Thank you, Game Informer.
23:02:55 Death Penalty
Huh. You'll be able to switch between whole sets of powers that complement each other.
23:01:18 Death Penalty
Apparently that's also where the smoke powers come from. His only natural power is the ability to absorb the powers of others.
23:00:14 Death Penalty
Apparently he has the power to absorb the abilities of other conduits, though. That could be where the explosive powers come from.
22:59:53 Death Penalty
Yeah man, I really can't stand the description of him. Hope it comes together well in the game.
22:57:58 Death Penalty
Dude sounds like a twat though.
22:57:45 Death Penalty
We don't know.
22:57:12 Death Penalty
It can't just be smoke because whatever he's got he can make explode and it glows with cinders.
22:56:57 Death Penalty
It actually looks really similar to Nix's powers.
22:49:24 Death Penalty
Dat inFAMOUS though.
22:48:52 Death Penalty
The sheer number of new IPs being funded for the Xbox One is pretty significant. I'll have to see what they're all about.
22:46:51 Death Penalty
I believe it does as well. But again, both consoles are damn near the same when it comes to raw power. It will be all down to the libraries.
22:43:52 Death Penalty
Seems early to call.
22:43:41 Death Penalty
But both of them aren't even close to revealing their full first-year library and on core specs the consoles are close to identical.
22:43:01 Death Penalty
I've only seen two games of theirs that looked any good- Killzone and inFAMOUS.
22:42:17 Death Penalty
How do you figure?
22:41:03 Death Penalty
E3 will be the decider for me, I think. I'm still completely in the dark, I feel like.
22:40:19 Death Penalty
Currently PS4 looks stronger, but that could be attributed to the fact that they've revealed more than one core exclusive.
22:39:52 Death Penalty
Indeed. With console specs being so damn close, it'll be all up to the games library for me this time around.
22:38:25 Death Penalty
And yes, it's going to release late this year as the PS4 is.
22:38:04 Death Penalty
We'll see. I don't blame them for holding back on revealing them all with E3 being only a few short weeks away.
22:36:34 Death Penalty
It sounds like they're trying to make their exclusives library stronger, and that's great. Eight new IPs is also great.
