I'm glad it's not just me, then.

Dude, between this and X I'd gladly buy a Wii U. Nintendo has my praise for supporting an awesome IP (and hopefully an awesome game) no one else wanted to deal with.

I'm starting to think that the term "Nice Guy" has started to take on a life all of it's own. It's almost becoming a derogatory slur for young men with mild Autism, Asperger's or Social Anxiety and a means to paint all of them as some comic-book-super-villain-mastermind simply because they lack not only social skills…

8 out of 10? Really? That's an incredibly pessimistic out look.

Yeah and if you can tell that the guy is bad a socializing and isn't picking up on the cues and you still refuse to be direct and honest you should not be surprised if things become heated or dramatic. It's like getting pissed that you can't order a Big Mac because the person at the drive-thru speaks very poor English…

When you can basically say something to the effect of "When men are socially awkward or overly subtle they're losers or down right malicious but women are socially awkward and overly subtle because they're raised that way" you're putting down both parties seriously hard.

If they don't take the news well then that's on them. Being honest and upfront is always the best way to go. Always. The better if you're polite about it. Even if you don't know how people will react you should always strive to be honest and polite about what you're looking for. That's not to say that if the guy is…

Yeah, see, the other thing about living in the real world is that both sides can alter how they act and react in rel time. If the guy isn't getting the "hints" and the girl picks up on that and refuses to be blunt (not necessarily rude, just honest and to the point) then while it doesn't excuse the guy for having poor…

I love how every single portrayal of this "nice guy" concept is of some willfully, malicious and devious monster who are out to trade enjoyable afternoons and friendliness for sex, or something.

When you have to dispose of the "fuel" of a solar plant you don't have to bury it in a huge containment facility miles underground nor can you turn it's spent fuel into bombs. If a solar plant "melts down" you but some new mirrors and move one. No one needs to get evacuated, no one grows extra limbs, so one's lively…

Cool. How about slapping together a game with them Project Sylpheed looking, R-Type meets Vic Viper hybrid space fighters? Didn't you hear? The death of Space Fighter games has been greatly exaggerated so maybe hop on that train while it's still picking up steam and try to make a half way decent console star fighter…

The worst part of the advice I get is that half of what everyone says is in direct conflict with the other half of the advice that very same person gave me in the previous breath. I can't tell if they're just mindlessly parroting empty words they've heard other's bark before them or if they legitimately mean to…

Yeah now we give passes to our own, domestic titles. All of the negatives listed in the review box describe Mass Effect and Dragnons Age to the T. But those games are the best games ever because they are while Final Fantasy is just a has-been JRPG.

But who will be behind the door? God? The Devil? No one? Everyone? Will there actually be anything at all or will there be nothing? If it's nothing, will it be a nothing we can quantify or even less than that?

I don't think I can fully relate, as a white male, but I do find myself in a similar predicament.

Echolocation has served man wonders for years. There's no reason to bring LEDs into the equation! :P

Wait, wait, you mean that you actually expect people to play a 40 dollar single player game more than once? You expect people to explore the maps, to try exploring different ways to play the same mission and to try beating their best scores?

That was one of the biggest problems I had with the ending. Megatron was pleading for his life and with out a self righteous speech ripe with righteous indignation reminding Megatron of all the reasons he deserves no mercy, hell, with out even a word, Optimus kills Megatron like it was nothing to him (even after we…

I mean, if you put it that way, yeah. But shit covered in stripper glitter is still shit.

It always amazes me to see the real world inspiration of these places from various anime and JRPGs. Lots of anime draw inspiration directly from these places and the manner in which they are recreated can really help to bring a show to life.
