Plato is for noobs and Socrates is for button mashers. Aristotle or GTFO, amirite?
(I agree it's too early to declare a "winner" in the console war that is just getting started).

Well, cool. The middling response to this game kept me away, even though Fable II was one of my favorite gaming experiences. Might as well fill up my hard drive.
@Vice - That's funny. Replies don't work for you. I'm guessing it's your apostrophe. I'm sure Nick will fix ya right up.
The absolute worst part about that is the "exclusive achievement." As someone who still sort of likes achievements, that is really gross.
I hate it when there are sunglasses in Final Fantasy games.
If you do, let me know what you think. Hopefully, the sensation of doing work will sink in later for you than me. It has a really cool system that is worth checking out.
Yes! Yes! Yes! I am glad you wrote this since I have about three similar attempts open on my desktop that always went down the road of insane angry ramblings of a mad man. You, sir, were able to be cogent about it all.
Even though I rarely buy used games and rarely lend or borrow games, it does happen. Just the fact that this option is made cumbersome, complicated, and irritating makes me want to avoid this console all together. I have no problem with the used games market, but a lot of problems with an industry that continues with the same bad business practices it's always had and then blames the customer for its problems. These new methods are one step beyond crying about it, though, and are flat-out antagonistic.
It's going to take a lot of convincing for a device with all of these convoluted restrictions to get into my wallet. We'll see what happens next week, I suppose, but they're going to have to do something seriously amazing to make me interested.
I will also point out that games on GOG are DRM free. I will also point out that I spent the last week playing Gunpoint, a game made by one person in his spare time that you can buy DRM free and/or on Steam for nine bucks. It was a game unlike any other I've played and worth every cent. I can't imagine getting this sort of experience on a machine that has shut out independent developers and made playing games by the big boys somewhat sickening.
Most likely, if they make fun of you, they'll later be seen watching the latest reality show which is clearly a better use of time. Everyone has to spend time goofing off, so don't feel bad about it.
I read a lot too, and I've definitely read books that did less for me mentally than playing even the silliest of video games.
The bar is mooooving!!!
I got confused since I was sitting on whatsacow's couch when I scored this blog. I assumed it had offline only and I was typing into a Word document. My bad.
Revised score:
(out of a possible )
