Just do what I did, make the account for them. Then it's just simply installing the English patch. Most of my friends were ok with that.

Yeah, they still work, because they don't rely 100% on an internet connection to a specific Microsoft service. Look at how Microsoft treated the original Xbox when the 360 came out. They ceased...

It depends on the factory. There are factories that essentially just use detergent and water.

Cleaning motherboards in soapy water has been a common practice for quite a while now. People do it...

Yet they continue to buy those games...

No one seems to complain when Activision and EA pump out updated versions of the same FPS and sports games year after year. By comparison Nintendo's new entries in their franchises are quite unique....

It's not that I don't like Microsoft, I actually do like them and their products. I just don't like their current trend.

The difference with those other systems is that yes they are not supported,...

Yep, and Nintendo has a ton of quality games coming out for the Wii U and 3DS.

It's not that big of a deal to really worry about. Just about all circuit boards get cleaned when they are made at the factory. What do you think they do in those cheap chinese factories where they...

It's similar in the fact that it's a perfect example of Microsoft going "We don't want to offer this service anymore. Good luck anyone enjoying games that require it!"

It's not that crazy of a...

I'm not talking about the servers themselves, I'm simply talking about keeping a service running in general. For example, the games that required Xbox Live on the original Xbox to play could have...

Right now it's looking more like Nintendo and Sony will be the 2 big consoles this generation if you ask me. They have the better exclusives and they don't have any of the stupid policies Microsoft...

3 is a nice round number. Just about every generation has had at least that many contenders if not more. I don't have a problem with at least 3 consoles per generation as it gives a nice amount of...

Yeah, for one game it's easy to get a fan patch. Do you think every single Xbox One game is going to get a fan patch? I highly doubt it.

It's best just to avoid this console. Any good exclusives...

It doesn't matter how much of a deal it was. It's still evidence that Microsoft doesn't keep their console services running forever or patch the games requiring live to work without it.

Honestly for the motherboard you should be fine with just soap and water, then let it dry for a good while. Many people do this with their retro systems as well as old Amps and stereo equipment.

It's not that much of a stretch to come to that conclusion though. They haven't said anything about making it futureproof, and their general attitude about people's concerns with the system doesn't...

Last I checked Bayonetta was far from a failure. It was actually very successful for a brand new IP. The only reason Sega passed up the sequel was because at the time they weren't in a very good...

In a perfect world yes, you do want your children to play outside. But what if it's stormy outside that day? What about in winter when sunset is around 5:00? There are days when even if your kid...

The people of AtariAge would like to have a word with you...

Just because you hate retro games doesn't mean everyone else does.

DeOxit is great for cleaning your old amps and switches, but for games it's overkill. Rubbing alcohol is more than enough. It will evaporate just fine.

Actually there are people who have Pentium and 286/386/386 machines just for playing old Windows and DOS games because they don't play properly on modern machines.

Not specifically, but typically I buy something I'm going to enjoy for some time. I have DVDs I bought back in 2000 that I still watch. For example I'm not going to replace my Star Trek Movie...

The problem here is bad project management. Plain and simple. Publishers and developers aren't thinking realistically when they project their sales. As a result they are over budgeting. Then when...

I would never play $300 for a loose cart of Earthbound. Maybe $25-$50, but not $300. But then again I could care less about that game as I have no desire to own or play it. I only buy things on ebay...

It has nothing to do with hoarding games or selling them on ebay.

Here's my entire game collection:...
