Breath of the Wild is a Zelda game the same way Star Fox Adventures is a Star Fox game. Not to say the game is bad, but what's the difference between "reinventing the series" and "applying existing licenses to a completely different game design"?

Man, I'm actually disappointed that there are people defending this game in the comments. Nintendo has gotten lazy. Paper Mario 1 and 2 were great RPGS (Although they don't compare at all to Mario RPG) and I never played Super Paper Mario but it looked really good to me. Why praise them from straying away from a good formula that they barely got to experiment with with a damn card-battling game?

Maybe it has good writing and an enjoyable story. Then it's just like Uncharted or The Witcher or anything else, except that you can't adjust the difficulty to a rewarding level here.

But they said "give that bone a squeeze" in a Mario game, and god dammit, I might have to get this just to own that piece of history.

Youtube is just giving me an error occured, try again later.

Automatic uploader didn`t upload it to YT, so probably have to wait for them to manually upload it on Monday.

And only the YouTube version isn't working. You can still watch the original GB version (Streaming, Progressive, HTML5).

Flashes of EVO when Jeff breaks out the life-or-death parries [~56min]. I wouldn't mind seeing busted throwback games like Asuka 120% as a sideshow during tournaments.

terrorism(noun) - the use of violence and threats to intimidate or coerce, especially for political purposes

It's a very general concept. Do yourself a favor and reclaim this definition from whatever bullshit the American political media is feeding you.

As for the people who want to remain neutral and just play video games without drama, I hear ya. It shouldn't be centered around pro- or anti-GamerGate; people just want to be "pro-video games". I think we all feel the same way, so the least we can do is condemn the harassment and threats that are happening. If those go away, all this drama goes away, too. In fact, if GamerGate had come out of the... gate with civilised discussion it would have been seen as such. And the so-called "third party" terrorism (yes, it's fucking terrorism) might have been viewed as a legitimately external third party. But that will never happen now, because we could see their actions and intentions from the beginning. On Twitter. On reddit. On 8chan. On IRC.

If you really are identifying as a gamer (whatever that truly is), you are still passively supporting the side that is attempting to make gaming more inclusive and challenging conventions that will allow for entirely new types of games from unexplored perspectives. Not the side that, for example, spent so much time making the perfect "female gaming" mascot then immediately enacting Rule 34 and drawing degrading pornographic pictures of it. What does that have to do with ethics in game journalism?

You know, this whole ordeal makes GamerGate definitionally a terrorist group.

It would make their plotting in the open that much dumber, if they didn't always pick targets where the reaction would be just under the signal-to-noise ratio. I tell ya, that's an ability that only comes from true bullying experience.
