I have played Razor Freestyle Scooter on PSone. The worst part of that game was getting the music stuck in your head.

I remember someone saying the soundtrack was the best part of the game. Wonder what they we're smoking....

Sorry to hear your first pc gaming build was eventful Anthony, but at least you got it working. I know there's a little sticker shock right now, but you'll see down the road how the economics of pc gaming isn't as bad as people say & it's totally worth it.

This week's Tell GR was so successful that I think you guys need to start a regular "gamer therapy" column or something.

I've mentioned this before on this site, but I too have never finished a FF game.

I tried FFVIII. Got stuck on Ultimecia with Riona junctioned.
I tried FFX. Got stuck on Yunalesca.
I tried FFX-2. Got stuck against Garik Ronso.

Daniel, I could send you the Avatar game, because it's garbage. Achievements are amazing easy to get. All you have to do is press a button repeatedly.

Thanks for answering my question, makes sense!
I realized after a sent the question in that it was kinda dumb since I read all the reviews and have a good time reading them.

No such thing as a dumb question. Even when we get really dumb ones (yours wasn't) we especially love answering those, because they're the most fun.

No matter what, though, we enjoy the interaction with the community above all else, so we value any questions you or anyone sends us.

You are correct, I think the Wii U's problem is gamers associate it with the Wii. The one thing that struck me about your answer was how you compare it to the SNES. Ever since it released I've had this feeling akin to the one I had when the SNES released back in the day. Now you've validated it.
I'll wait for a price drop and better battery life for the Gamepad, but I think I'll definitely be getting one. If Nintendo wants to save face with the price drop issue they could just get rid of the Basic model and sell the Deluxe set for $299 but without tampering with the backwards compatibility.
