Technology Tell writes, "With Sony cross-buy promotions, players tend to automatically get a digital copy of the game for other platforms tied to their account. However, Nintendos Mario vs Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars announcement mentioned something important. People get a download code, not an immediate, downloadable copy credited to their account."

Technology Tell writes, "Thats the sticking point, and in this case, the problem. Its not that Metal Gear Solid can never work in first-person, but that it can not in its current form. The series was built around a third-person camera, and it needs players to have access to that degree of information in order to work. The same is true for Dark Souls, Bayonetta, Infamous, and so on."

Technology Tell writes, "However, the nature of Sword Daughter also means there are many instances where the game stops short. This is understandable in gamebooks, because of the medium. It doesnt work as well in the game. As an example, early on I had Tyrna and Gavin attempt to avoid wild dogs. This resulted in her falling from the horse. Despite having only known each other for a few hours, the two were madly in love when she awoke. Tyrna abandoned everything to be with him forever. There was no character development, and it felt incredibly unsatisfying."

Technology Tell writes, "Out of all the games I enjoyed in 2014, Captain Toad has the most personality. Theres a charm here incorporated into all aspects of the game. Toad himself has all of these little quirks that come through as you play the game, based on his expressions and actions as he explores each of these little worlds. Except, it isnt limited to him. Other Super Mario games and spin-offs have enemies and additional characters on patrol, ready to attack or react. Here in Captain Toad, theyre living their lives and being themselves."

Technology Tell writes, "Perhaps it was because I chose the Arcanist class, but FFXIV wasnt a scary MMO to play solo. I had a pet, so I wasnt truly alone. Carbuncle was with me. I didnt have to worry about having someone to help draw enemy attacks, because there was a pet with me from almost the very start."

Technology Tell writes, "Do you know how much a Wii U cost in Brazil? It was R$1,899 (~$830). To compare, a Wii U here in the US is, of course, about $299.99. Hell, it isnt difficult to find it for less than that. It was about a $530 difference. Games were even usually sold for about R$199 (~$90). Can you imagine paying that much for a Nintendo console? Though, its a common pricing issue, as a PS4 is R$3,999 (~$1,845)."
