Well, my dad isn't a Gamer Dad, but we'll enjoy lunch together for sure. I do love to eat, even if I'm on a calorie diet.

Have a good one, lee! Happy Father's Day!

Honestly though, it was kind of nice to just focus on other things for a bit. Even read the first chapter of Mockingjay while everything was out. Plus like I said, got some exercise in, been needing that for a while.

But I was also doing most of that cause of the onset of insanity that came from not being "plugged in," so it's hit or miss I guess. And now we know I have an addiction, so acknowledging the problem is the first step to being cured, right?

Well, I'll be watching this closely. Too bad it's on Xbox One though, and if Microsoft owns the rights to the name ... oy. Also, that only got settled a couple months ago? So, how long has this been in development then?

Oh, how I wish this were a physical disc launch title on PS4, handled by former Rare employees. Still, I hope that's who the "core" people are helping out, and that they, Double Helix and Rich Bantegui can come up with a good game. Not cause I plan on buying it at present, but cause I like KI and don't want to see its legacy tarnished.

Yeah, I get that people love all types of games, but a lot of the negative feedback to FFXV has lamented a "dumbing down" that comes from the changes, so I addressed that reaction specifically.

I'm no big fan of FPS myself, I find them to be fairly boring as well, frankly. I mean I have had a lot of fun in Halo multiplayer matches, but I feel like it has to be the right people, and the game while fun, has less to do with it, especially since I've been just as bored playing it with the wrong people.

I do love The Office and I like my Seinfeld/Friends re-runs. That reminds me, I gotta watch Community at some point. lol

True. They are definitely changing Final Fantasy's core game mechanic a lot more than Assault changed Star Fox's, just by nature of completely revamping it as opposed to simply putting the original gameplay style on the back burner a la Assault.

In fact, it's not even that far on the back burner with Assault, there's just other stuff I felt was unnecessary in that game breaking up my favorite sections.

Yeah, not a 1:1 comparison at all, my bad. lol

I wasn't saying JRPGs are about tapping at all; I'm saying Injustice is a mind numbing game of tapping, and if that type of mindless, repetitive input is what JRPG fans see in action games, I can see why they're upset by the changes made to the gameplay in XV.I understand the appeal is strategy for JRPGs, I wasn't making a comparison between Injustice and JRPGs.

As for Star Wars, I grew up watching the originals on VHS rentals and feeling kind of meh about them, and liking the prequels cause they were in theaters when I was young, but now I definitely think I'd like the originals better.

That's definitely one of the most common things to feel betrayed about though, people HATE the prequels. lol

Yup, specs comparable, price and user friendliness no comparison. Easy choice.

Nice big speakers are always a wise choice.

I actually never played the original Punch Out or this much at all, and only knew of the series cause of that Simpsons ep where Homer steals cable, but I think if I did play them, I'd be with you in liking this best. Something about that SNES art style I really dig.
