I like what you're getting at, but please, not streaming. For games, it sucks.

Bleh, that sucks. I first discovered allgame back in 2000.I was tickled to find so many of my favorite obscure games listed.

Street Fighter's cool, Persona 5 is great and right below Zelda U, FFXV, and Xenoblade Chronicles X on my list of "most wanted."

One game I'm excited for is Yakuza 5. It's coming to PS3 as a digital release. What I hope it means is US releases for future Yakuza games and a lightening-up of Sega's overall localization decisions. I'd love to play Shining Resonance in English. But we'll see how well Yakuza 5 does, I suppose...

I honestly don't think there's enough demand for full-on HD remakes of those games to justify what it would cost to make them.

Wish they were coming to PS4 instead of/in addition to the Vita.

My biggest bummer was the Ni no Kuni Wizard's Edition. I lost out on it during the big screwup and got a free hardbound Ni no Kuni strategy guide instead.

One important thing to remember is that in 1989, TV was a triopoly of CBS, ABC, and NBC. Other than one or two Super Bowls, the highest-rated TV broadcast in American history was the 1983 series finale of M*A*S*H (106 million viewers).  No American TV show, save for a hotly-contested Super Bowl, will ever come close to that kind of viewership ever again, and that's because we now have hundreds of cable channels, not to mention Amazon, Netflix, and Hulu. So these days, 3.4 million is considered a pretty decent number, and it's better than a lot of shows on NBC, ABC, and CBS that are still getting renewed. And the Simpsons marathon on FXX kicked that network up to #3 from #49 in the ratings the week it aired.

I didn't think Baltimore would have winter weather as relentlessly cold as, say, Buffalo or North Dakota, which are both a good ways' away from the ocean, but cold weather means something very different in the Southwest than it does in the Northeast, and my frame of reference is the Southwest. :)

I have a cousin from Arizona who goes up to work in the ND oil fields every six months or so. He regularly reports two-digit negative temperatures up there.

You'd be surprised. The Simpsons still has good ratings and is still far and away one of the most profitable TV shows in existence. That's why it still gets renewed despite the voice actors being some of the highest-paid talent on TV.

Can't wait for GGXrd. I also hope Pokken makes it to the Wii U soon.
