@forkboy: I must have missed that one. Ahh well...

It's great that Gamespot has a personality like him, but unfortunately Gamespot isn't my cup-of-tea and I rarely seek anything out on it.

I'll just learn to be happy with him just dropping in on GB streams. Which is actually quite a bit.

Soooooo, is Danny officially a Bombardier yet?

On a site of personalities he,a) has one, b) meshes well with the group (@jeff in particular) and c) is interested/knowledgable in an area of games that the others maybe are not.

And I guess d) everyone here seems to want him to be.

So in 2014 I finally got my very own iPad, and I was wondering which RPGs people like to play on it?

My favorites that always get replayed every couple of years are;

Chrono Trigger

Final Fantasy III

Earthbound

Breath of Fire

The controls on some of the action RPGs might not be ideal on an iPad, so turn-based ones are probably better, right?

I did plunk down the money for The World Ends With You and didn't really like the feel of it.

Are their any turn-based RPGs that you recommend on the iPad?

Or should I just emulate old SNES ones on it?

Searching the forums seems to be broken, and I can't find any good answers anywhere else on the web, so;

Does anyone have any good recommendations for an external hard drive to plug into my ONE?

I know it needs to be USB 3.0, but is 7200rpm recommended or will 5400 do?

Are there any other downsides to running games off that hard drive?

I'm cautiously optimistic.

I trust Valve (probably too much), but we've seen controllers like this in the past. Hell, the NES had something similar to this. And they've all just felt weird.

But, if anyone can make weird things like this work it's Valve. Having it completely open and hackable is a nice touch too. (GET IT?!?!)

God, what a boring launch line-up...

I think most launch line-ups were/are straight-up crap, but this is just more motivation to wait until 2014 to pick up a console. Plus, we get to see if there are any hardware issues that plagued Microsoft's last launch.

Is anyone having a problem using their converted points? I ended up with a Microsoft account balance of $14.50 after the conversion, and I went to buy Brothers on my console, but it wouldn't let me apply the $14.50 to my purchase (it wasn't selectable at all, I could only pay with my credit card). I then went to the Xbox site, and the Microsoft account value is conspicuously absent. I figured it would be the same setup as PSN when buying something that costs more than your balance (apply balance and pay the difference). Anyone else? Any ideas?

I'm curious about this too. I've got $4.50 on my account and it's not applying to anything at all. I'm constantly having to put my credit card in to purchase things.

These are all promotional points too that I got from taking their surveys and using Bing. So, if they don't apply forward, then expire after a certain date, well Microsoft just got some free work out of me...
