That is so expressed in the first 2 videos. They are selling the game as being a more passive and visual experience. It's not just a pair of knockers and bare feet (if you're into that) sitting and looking pretty while while some kawaii Pikmin runs around with a cherry. There is a purpose to the manner in which the ad…

Seeing the Toonami intro is a double dose of nostalgia!

The difference:

Yeah that's right, spread them legs. We gonna wreck ya. I think you're still too tight for the main cannon, though, so how a bout a friendly fisting?

It seems almost all modern day children's TV have to have that obligatory child character because, apparently, kids are fucking morons and can't relate to a story unless they can project into someone their age. Naturally, this bull shit, but it's what the marketing big wigs think so it might as well be fact.

As an example.

Got it. Tomatoes and vegetables. There, now piss off with your semantics.

Then most DLC is shit and very little is worth the actual price. Those worth it that are large enough are called expansions. There, nice and simple. Fucking Christ man...

Yeah it's that back asswards pricing structure that gets to me. When I download character outfits or levels from one of my NISA JRPGs I'm looking at anywhere from free to 1.99. Even the little bits for Tales of Graces F were never more than 5 bucks for the really fancy costumes. Personally, I see that as a pretty fair…

Well.... yes and no. Technically an (most likely) expansion is downloadable content. I see it more like a specific classification. You have map packs, character packs, upgrade/booster packs and then you have expansions. With few exceptions, in the modern day gaming scene you will almost certainly download all of those…

DLC = $15-$20 for 5 maps and MAYBE handful of other, meaningless goodies.

I implore you to try the older games in the series. If you can't stand them then I implore you to never by an Ace Combat game again and stop feeding Bamco marketing data that says that people want more trash like Assault Horizon. You have HAWXs for that. Go play HAWXs and let Ace Combat be Ace Combat.

Can we please just get a new sci-fi show where we have a nice romp around the galaxy in a bad ass spaceship without being in a non-stop, existential crisis? Maybe at least a tiny portion of the show's plot can either involves around having to tachno-babble there way out of a tough bind or the an incredibly clever ship…

God that video gets me hot.

Well that's all well and good (and really, it's a great game to bring back from the dead) but how about another long, forgotten IP? A different platformer. Like, how about (just throwing a name out there to see if it sticks) Mega Man?

IRL "loot farming" is called "murder" and "theft".

Dude, that's boring as shit, though. Like, if you're going to play that way just get Street Fighter, or something.

Nah, bra, that different cuz, like, gunz is friggen sweat while swords and samurais is for, like, queers'n shit. Fucking multiplaya is where is's at while these loosahs, over here, play be themselves masturbate'n ta then plastic figures of anime girls cuz they can't get no girl friends. Also Call'a Duty's endorsed by…

Yo.

Which ever one is the newest so that it seems fresh. There's really no need to go backwards unless you don't want to wait for this generation's Empires and Xtream Legends spin offs.
