| The question to me doesn't seem to make much sense. Is it worthwhile to learn anything? I suppose it is if it interests you. If your asking if its a better way to spend your time and effort rather than to learn another programming language then I would have to ask what you want out of a programming ... |

The developers already made the best game they could then the bossman tells them they have to make another.. since they cant do better but have to change it enough to not anger the buyers who would realize... |

| You say its generally beneficial but how? As for the "cooling since 1998" myth it's long been shown that it came about as a consequence of basically ignoring the overall trend in favor of focusing completely on single specific dataset that supports the supposition. Its the equivalent of sa... |

| Nah it's actually pretty hard to brick a hard drive since most of what it needs to function on a basic level is in the firmware and takes some pretty determined work to modify unless using manufacturers software specifically made for that task. If all else fails just deleting all the partitions and ... |

Sure some people are benefiting from it but humans can find an angle to benefit from anything. ... |

Yeah God Hand kind of flew under the radar when it was released but is quickly becoming a cult classic.
Would definitely recommend it to anyone who enjoys beat-em-ups. |

In internet options under the privacy tab theres a slider to change to different presets. The lower the slider the more permissive it is towards cookies and other tracking objects.
There's also an advanced button for finer control. |

| What a lot of people don't realize is that "Nintendo hard" came about not because of a sadistic streak on the part of the developers (usually) but because of the limitations of the hardware. If they made the games just difficult enough to be challenging but without the brutal die and start over mech... |
