Stuff like this just happens when hardware gets old. Luckily for you replacement AC Adapters are easily found on eBay.

Out of those two I'd have to say Fallout 3. Hands down.

It's a great game. I personally don't think it reaches the same lofty heights of GTA III or San Andreas, but it was a great game none-the-less.

I still feel this game gets a bad wrap. It was weak in some areas, but you'd be hard pressed to find a Zelda with less filler for its length, better combat, and better boss fights.

Also, yes, the music was superb in this one particularly, but it definitely had a different vibe than the other Zeldas. I loved it a lot. Each track had a lot of atmosphere to it and brings on a lot of fond memories.

All in all, there was just something unique about this Zelda. Unique in a good way IMHO. It's a one of a kind experience.

I honestly feel the filler in Skyward Sword was one of its problems.

Your praise of the music is in stark contrast to my criticism of it. I honestly believe Skyward Sword has one of the weakest soundtracks in the entire series. I wouldn't say the game sucked, but it wa certainly far from being the best example of a 3D Zelda game. There was too much hand holding and too much filler for my tastes.

I refuse to buy an Xbox One until they decide to release one without Kinect bundled with it. If I bought an Xbox One right now I wouldn't even use Kinect, so why should I play extra for the sake of something I don't want?

You shouldn't, but my question is why go around telling people who don't care, about a device you don't like, why you won't be buying it?

These type of threads are the same ones that we saw last gen about LIVE. 'I am not going to buy a 36o cause I am not paying to play online.' To all of you 'core gamers' you are not who The One is marketed to exclusively. This whole thread is full of whine by people who don't like Kinect. It is quite funny really.

Well, how about this. I would like to own an Xbox One at one point, but I don't want Kinect. As a consumer, a consumer who Microsoft aims their product at, and as a consumer who has supported the Xbox brand since day one, I have every right to go around on any forum related to Microsoft and/or the Xbox One and make my own point heart. My question to you would be "If you don't care about what I said then why the hell did you even reply to me?" Because, in answering me, you clearly must care about what I said to some extent. I don't care about Kinect purely because I don't think it is any good, and if I am forced by Microsoft to buy one alongside an Xbox One I have every right, as both a consumer and a gamer who has supported the Xbox since day one, to complain about it. I shouldn't have to pay extra for a console purely because it comes with a peripheral that I neither like nor want. Microsoft's insistence on bundling Kinect with every console is ultimately making me avoid the console, and unless they make a package without Kinect I'll just buy a pre-owned version of the console in a few years, when the prices go down, which means Microsoft will earn no money from the sale. And if this happens it will only be from Microsoft's own doing.

Super Star Wars trilogy, Knights of the Old Republic, Rogue Squadron, Rogue Squadron II, Dark Forces II, Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy, Battlefront, Battlefront 2 and Republic Commando are the stand out Star Wars games I have played. But There are a lot of good Star Wars games. Star Wars: X-Wing, Star Wars: Tie-Fighter and Star Wars: X-Wing vs. Tie-Fighter are supposed to be fantastic too.

I wouldn't want to see any game get "McShea'd". It's a stupid term anyway in my opinion, as I think Tom McShea is one of the best reviewers on the net. He just doesn't give a sh*t what anybody else thinks, he just reviews the game with his own honest opinion.
