Yeah, I am so bummed that I missed that, it sounded so amazing when I heard about it after the fact. Much like the Jejune Institute in San Francisco.

His work just fucking sits in your soul and doesn't leave. I spent a year dissecting Paranoia Agent in my head.

On a very personal note: I was lucky enough to hear Satoshi Kon speak at an early screening of Paprika once. He was truly a singular man.

Obviously spoilers...

THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH CAPS OR SWEAR WORDS IN THE MOTHER FUCKING WORLD TO DESCRIBE HOW MUCH I FUCKING WANT YAKUZA 5 TO COME OUT TO THE FUCKING WEST. FUCK.

What is this shit? WHAT IS THIS SHIT, PLUNKETT?!

I agree with you completely except that I think City is pretty deserving of most of its praise. The story isn't PERFECT, but nothing is, and anyway, I think the kind of disjointed feel that City might give with its story only helps it feel more comic-book-y. And that's fine with me.

Definitely agree on the story. I still don't get who was behind everything; Joker, Ra's al Ghul (who had a horrible VA by Dee Bradley Baker), or Hugo Strange. The plots with the other villains were pretty good though.

I think they put Deathstroke as the 3rd assassin fight (Croc is first! Then, though it's not exactly a fight, you encounter and deal with Electrocutioner before Deathstroke too) because the way Deathstroke goes about his business made the most sense from a gameplay perspective at the moment they put it there.

i recieved it as a gift. Absolutely loved it. I think people build games up so much that when they come out if feels dissapoonting on day one. If you ignore it And get it 6 months later without all the hype and build up, most games are alot more enjoyable (and cheaper) inmo.

Aveline! Ugh.. How I was disappointed she wasn't a romance. She was a very strong female character in all aspects. It would be cool to even see her in DA:I.

Its just a defense posture, just like how when people try to claim its unpatriotic to question government.

This has been the case for centuries, of people "telling writers how to create their story". Why did Arthur Conan Doyle bring back Sherlock Holmes from the dead? Fans wrote him asking him to do so. Why did Charles Dickens rewrite the ending to Great Expectations? Because initial readers were unsatisfied with the…

Ah, the old argument that the writer is writing what they write because they're just trying to get clicks. Yeah, a succinct, non-histrionic headline and a bunch of reporting mixed in with argument sure are the telltale signs of a writer who doesn't give a damn about what they're saying and is just cravenly farming…

They are fake gamer cats just doing it for the attention.

I keep suggesting to JE Sawyer that one early mission in PoE should have your character rescuing a character named Chris from wolves and then teaching him how to use a map.

He actually even co-wrote a pen and paper RPG module for the Accursed setting that just got released like...today.
