@lego_my_eggo: No, I said playing the games is illegal, I didn't say having an emulator is illegal. I was saying you can download something like ZSNES, but you can't legally download the ROM. That's at least what I meant. I wasn't thinking about ripping the game yourself, and using it for your own purpose, only the download of them from sites like CoolROM and stuff. What you just said in the last sentence is exactly what I was talking about.

Not saying this as some kind of fan boy, because I have and enjoy playing both PS4 and Xbox One but... More power to Xbox One I guess.

@mattyftm: Aw, you're correct. I misread it because the 'not legal' confused me (though, hypocritically, my first comment said that...). My mistake. Maybe I don't know what this nesbox is? My only argument is that you can't download something like ZSNES, and then legally download and play games from say, CoolROM. Is that not what the nesbox is? How do you get the games? I guess I'll have to look into it. If it is similar to downloading something like ZSNES, and then the game off of CoolROM, then it's not legal, so that's the reason why I say nesbox isn't going to work, or I can't see it working out.

@error52: From what I understand, you can download an emulator, say ZSNES, but you can't legally download ROM's, so technically, you can buy the system, but not the games. I'm pretty sure what Nintendo says is fact, until determined otherwise. They're not just being whiny babies that dislike when people download their games for free. I'm not really arguing how I personally feel about it, just the facts as they are. I think emulating games, and playing emulated games and it being legal or not is something people aren't entirely sure about, which is also why Nintendo posted the page I linked to.

@lestephan: Yeah, do that. There aren't that many people that seemed to have played it; I'm curious what people think.

Hey, I now wanted to update this once more, and for the final time, because Jotun is out tomorrow on the PS4 and Xbox One, as well as it already being out on the Wii U. Is anyone going to check it out? I'd love to see a quick look of it. I'd like to see Brad play it, see what he thinks; kind of a game it seems he'd play in my opinion.

@mambogator: I just played RE6 last night. I really enjoyed the game on last-gen (I'm in the minority), enough to buy it again in remaster form. I got it around release, but I haven't gotten around to beating it. I am at the beginning of Sherry and Jake's campaign. I do enjoy the game, but the reason I haven't played more is because I played a lot of it on last-gen. I got RE5 remaster as well, and like last-gen, it's probably a great game still, but I've only gotten up to the executioner part. Also, though not from the get-go, you can select to be Sheva in solo play. I don't remember how. I think you have to beat the game first. I don't like being her though because she's inverted over the shoulder, and unlike in six, you can't change from side to side.

@memu: No, it doesn't make you hold it for cover in Mankind Divided. I don't know what system you're playing on, nor does it really matter I guess, but I played it on PS4, and I used the 'standard' controls, which is pretty much Call of Duty controls. The cover is a toggle, where you just press L1 to get on it (and honestly, it took me a little bit of time to get used to that, but it's more in line with what you're looking for). You can do a Mankind Divided control scheme, as well as Human Revolution's. I was fine with the controls in HR, but my biggest issue with it was that it has an archaic, R3 toggle aim down sights. The PC version has a toggle too, but at least I can set it to the right mouse button. I much prefer the LT/L2 hold aim. The cover system is slightly better in MD as well, due to being able to move from cover-to-cover, similar to the recent Splinter Cell games.

I played it for a couple of hours just now. The game is better than I was expecting, but aspects like gun play and visuals are sub-par. The ship combat is neither boring, nor really that fun; it's okay. The combat on ground feels like a spin on Mass Effect's gameplay, but worse. Honestly, it wouldn't be as much of an issue if the game didn't look like an original Xbox game (I'm thinking Advent Rising quality), and the auto-aim is way too lenient, with an ugly, over-sized reticle, though it kind of reminds me of KOTOR in a way. The game does very much feel like it can be played solo. The voice work is better than I was expecting. It seems like they put more care into it than I thought they would, and the characters aren't terrible (I'm actually surprised that there are even characters in it like this). I think when it comes to story, the thing it'll latch onto is the history of Trek, and what fans remember (running around the Academy, they mentioned Boothby just after I had thought 'I wonder if Boothby is here'), as well as just different scenarios, like battles between different species, kind of standard fare stuff; not so much the way Star Trek reflects on our own world issues, which again, I didn't expect though. It's okay, enough so that I'll keep going with it for now.
