ha ha, I am playing on iOS!  It is sort of funny looking, but it grows on you.  The music isn't as good though as like the GBA version.

hey, thanks, Justin!  Glad you liked it.  Yeah, I'm always looking for more realistic, immersive experiences, and often I'm disappointed.  But I truly think that as time goes by it will be more common.  And you're right: taking several shotgun blasts to the face is a little hard to believe! 

I think I've heard of that Skyrim mod.  I figured there would be mods for this kind of stuff, but since I can't get them to run on my PC, I didn't really research them.  But there's a Skyrim mod for everything, I guess.

Glad you enjoyed the article!

Love Last Remnant.  Psychonauts is great too.  Do you have a controller?  IT's better with a controller. 

this was great!

Xcom is a damn fine game, for sure.  I'm playing it on my iPad now and loving every second. 

Interesting method you have here.  I'm trying to focus better on finishing games myself.

hey thanks, glad you liked it.  I've been thinking about this article for a while. I mean, I wouldn't want them to change the Elder Scrolls necessarily, because people like them how they are mostly, but it would be nice to have the option for greater realism. 

when I was a little boy playing Kings Quest and stuff my older brother used to tease me with tales of hidden areas of those Sierra games where you meet "Princess Iguana".  For a short time I actually believed him.

I can't remember any specific game with hidden tricks like that, but I know I've played a few, maybe in Quake, or something, I can't remember. 

I can see the comparison, especially if you look at the absurd difficulty of the early Castlevania, and the nonlinear nature of them.

hey that guy was in Firefly and Doll House, a Whedon actor.  Is this movie really gory, or is it more funny? Or both? 

welcome to Pixlbit!!  I was a "1up refugee" too.
