I love it because of how well put together it is. It flows well and it's easily the best metroidvania type game I've played in a while. Well, 2D metroidvania. I think you might love it.

Yeah CoJ 2 is about modern drug cartels, the rest are proper Westerns. The second one was also abysmally bad. Gunslinger is awesome though.

Piracy, Is It Ever Acceptable?

Yeah I guess we'll have to. I look at the law in terms of practicality. Here we have a law that states that if a driver is on a certain stage of his license, he/she cannot have passengers after 11 pm. However, if your friend is at the pub, has ran out of money and the only person who can give them a lift is someone on that stage of their license, you're damn right I would.

 I see it as this. If you buy a physical copy of a game, you own it. If you buy a digital copy, you own the license to it. If you lose the digital copy, it's ok, you can download it again for free, because steam, origin, xbox live etc. keep a record of your transaction. With a physical copy though, you don't have that. I think though that you should be entitled to reimbursement of lost property though. Just because pirating is illegal and is almost entirely used for the wrong reasons does not mean that every application of it is wrong. However, if you disagree, that's fine. Just arguing a little further lol.

Yeah, almost all of the games I owned physical copies of.

That's fine. People who feel entitled to every game for free annoy me. However, I'm talking about MY case here in this discussion. It may be an edge case, but I still feel justified in doing what I did. It may be illegal, but so is pissing on a tree technically. If I've already bought the damn game, and I had a house fire and was unable to get them back, especially the rarer games, you're damn right I'm going to buy them. I am entitled to them because I bought them. If I was buying them for another console, yeah, that's a bit shit. As a college student who doesn't have much money, why the fuck should I spend another 100 bucks on a game that I've already spent money on? That is just retarded.

 Yeah. This is where offering awesome stuff with pre-orders comes in handy. I bought the special edition of dark souls, got a mousepad, Art books, posters, and a cool little figurine thing. If companies offer me posters, I'll spend extra.

No because insurance covers that. It doesn't cover games. If I've already given my money and shown support to the developers, then what does it matter? All I'm doing is replacing items I've lost.

Why Game Critics are Better Than Film Critics

 Fair enough. I never watch that. Moviebob is alright with games but only retro games, so I tend to only watch his movie related content. I don't mind Jeremyjahns either, but that's more because the guy is just likable more than anything else, and he knows his modern games too!

Finaly Playing Bioshock Infifnite!

 One of the best stories in gaming. As a game though... It's average. The shooting sucks and the vigors don't add a lot. Plus they took out things like security systems and being able to use all weapons at the same time, elements that diverted from the original bioshock's meh gunplay.

 I love the story, and it's messages, but I feel like the gameplay kind of goes against it and serves to undo what the story is trying to convey. Games are an interactive medium, and the interactive parts should reflect the tone and message of the story IMO.
