Even when they're based on actual people or events they're still coincidental because the disclaimer says so. It's a meaningless disclaimer that's over used and often used disingenuously or in blatant contradiction to the reality of what and who inspired the material in question.

The man was a huge nerd. It's hard to imagine someone as ripped and bad ass as a traditional nerd but the man grew up on a steady diet of D&D and Lord of The Rings. Just goes to show you can't judge a book by it's cover.

Amen.

Running around at the speed of crime! Got no where to go I've got to RUN FROM THE POE POE!

I'm not sure what you're arguing at this point. If your only concern is with power generation, storage and transference than if it comes from coal of wind should be of no consequence.

Is that at Usagishima? I MUST visit before I die.

Cathal Dodd is, hands down, my favorite Wolverine voice actor, bub.

If he used his claws half as much as he just kicked, kneed, punched and head butted in the old , 90s cartoon there wouldn't be a need for the rest of the X-men (and it would probably be a very, VERY bloody cartoon)

If they called them pretty princess bunny suits sales and interest in the game would plummet. Even more than if they called them mechs, I'd gather.

Christ you people are fucking dumb. I'm remembering now why I stopped commenting on Kotaku, the average level of intelligence has gone through the floor.

Christ All Mighty, there needs to be a sarcasm. Then again if the GIF wasn't a hint I guess there's no hope for some of you people.

Really? They're tying this to the movie? What, it wasn't good enough they took everything good from the first War for Cybertron game and replaced it with CoD style story pacing, air strikes, hold-your-position-enemy-waves and generic grit?

Jagers are mechs. Walkers are zombies. No one has ever pretended they are anything other than what they really are.

Oh, no I'm totally stoked about the game. I'm poking fun at the marketing department's refusal to call the mechs in the game mechs. Not that they have named the type of mechs Titans (after all Gundams are Mobile Suits which are mechs) but to straight up say something along the lines of "Mech is a dirty word. There are…

Never said it wasn't.

It sure is.

Nah, I'm pretty sure it has to do with either branding and marketing or both.

You inability to detect obvious satire makes you an ignorant fuck. Please find a small, dark corner and keep to yourself.

The devs have stated that they do not want the Titans being referred to as mechs and that mechs is a dirty word around the office. This, despite the game CLEARLY containing having mechs. I can't think of many reasons to not refer to mechs as mechs other than a marketing ploy to distance the game from the stigma of a…

The game has mechs and all mech games are lame because lol JRPGs and anime sucks.
