When all else fails, blame Kotaku!

Of course, these days something like that would get spoiled on gaming sites months before the game was even released, so you just can't win.

You're going to have to clear up another 2GB. You need 16GB to download it plus 16GB to install it. You'll get the first 16GB back once the game is installed.

I guess this answers this question.

All of Nintendo's late-generation Wii games had full-color manuals too (well, the ones I own do, anyway), and like the New Super Mario Bros. U manual they were just pamphlets, so my issue was just with how it seemed like people thought this manual was somehow better just because it had colorful picture of the world map inside, even though it's really just the same thing we're getting with most games these days. I realize most people probably just meant they liked the picture of the world map, but it bugged me anyway. :p I too kind of miss the days of the manual. I realize that companies like to save money and manuals aren't even really needed now that we have in-game tutorials and cutscenes, but they were sort of fun to flip through, you know? Just flipping through the manual for The Wind Waker and remembering all the good times. Hard to get the same nostalgic feelings reading the basic control setup for Skyward Sword. Ah, but soon everything will be digital and then it doesn't matter.

I'm not sure why people are so impressed with the manual. The world map looks nice, but... that's it. That's going to be the whole thing. A map, basic controls, probably some warnings about taking a break every hour. So could we all agree that the world map looks nice but manuals these days suck? :p But particularly my posts in any thread ever.

I CAN PLAY IN REAL-TIME... FOR REAL No longer will you have to pretend to play in real-time!

In Grand Theft Auto V? You'll probably have to wait for the next generation of consoles for that.

I only just finished the last bonus puzzles in Pullblox a few weeks ago, so I'm not ready for the sequel yet. I hope this game will have less puzzles that are just random shapes.

I guess I should prepare for a cardboard sleeve this time around too, then. :p Now that you don't even get manuals anymore, it doesn't really matter, I guess.

Wii Sports came in cardboard sleeve when I bought my Wii.

What's with the mix of painted and pixelated things? It looks awful.

This has been getting great reviews, but it looks so bad. I feel like I'm missing something. I kind of want to play it just because of the critical acclaim, but it looks so unappealing that I just don't know if it's worth it.

The only fun thing about dating in Grand Theft Auto was dropping your date off after a date and repeatedly running her over with your car. Sleeping Dogs attempted to make dating more fun by giving your dates a personality, cutscenes and a unique mission, but unfortunately you never heard from them again after your first date. Except for that one girl who accused me of cheating on her. I ran her over with my car too.

God knows there aren't enough sexy women in video games. Thank God for brave developers like WayForward.

I don't even know what a "Gtav" is. Sounds boring.

Yeah, this is totally going to mess up the Scribblenauts canon!

The ModNation Racers thing just seems to be an exclusive demo. InFamous 2 is still free for PlayStation Plus subscribers, so you know what to do.

That you need more than 2GB free to download the game! God, Dazzybee. Pay attention.

This isn't nearly as exciting as when you passed your CBT, but congratulations, I guess.

I'm sure we all have people on Facebook who we're only friends with to see what crazy thing they will say next. A woman on my Facebook shared a picture of Obama dressed up as Hitler and the text "is this your president?" I'm not sure what point she was trying to make. She's British.

Americans seem to think British seasons/series are miniseries, so that just makes things even more confusing. There was a lot of discussion about the first season of American Horror Story getting an Emmy nomination for best miniseries because oh it will have another season but oh no the second season will be a brand new story, but apparently everyone agrees that Sherlock is a miniseries. Maybe they just mean that the season/series is really short.

I'm not sure why girls think it matters if you're related. It's like, I know I'm your brother! The whole reason I'm asking you out is because we kind of look alike.

YEAH ELLMEISTER YOU PENIS.
