The problem with this photo is that it's bullshit. Wilson didn't see anything other than what he wanted to see because he stared the receiver down the entire way. If he'd actually looked at the defense, he'd have seen Butler already sprinting to break it up. A single frame doesn't tell the whole story.

The song is from Metal Gear Solid 3 and it plays during a sequence in which Snake climbs up a ladder for roughly two straight minutes.

Let's also not forget that it has the best final boss fight of any game:

Yeah, seems like everyone gets angry when the girl who's knocked down decides to kick at the other player's hands with her skates. "Paul" overreacted (though who expects the glass to break?), but that's a pretty shitty move by a little kid!

Nope. If you download it to your PS3 and connect your PSP, the copy option still never shows up. Unless they change it and enable PSP support on their backend, there's no getting the PSN version of this game (legally) onto the PSP.

It's not so much that the game is an ever-lasting tutorial, it's that the game holds your hand literally every step of the way. Even when things are really, really obvious, you can expect a two-minute long explanation from Drippy on exactly what you have to do, even at the very end of the game.

All I can say as a consumer is that when sales happen, I buy more stuff I probably wouldn't have bought otherwise.

It is compatible, yes.

Counterpoint: It won't backfire because it's a Final Fantasy game and they sell like crazy, regardless. FFXIII, for all the shit people give it, is still one of the highest-selling games for the franchise.

Yeeep. These are really not so much informative as they are to make Gawker a bunch of money on Amazon referral purchases.

More profitable to get rid of their back stock on an old system than to jack up the price to accommodate the newer controllers while letting the DS3s collect dust in a warehouse somewhere.

That "some reason" is because you can pay a minimal ($15) fee for automated check-in and I'm reasonably sure a good number of people do it so they don't have to deal with the hassle of remembering to be around a computer 24 hours before the flight.

Yeah, I totally agree. It's kinda why it's frustrating being a fan of JRPGs and having grown up with them. I mean, I'm 32 now and I've been playing since the original Dragon Warrior. It's kind of a shame that more games haven't "grown up" along with us and is part of the reason why I've been slowly migrating towards…

Yeah, that's the big problem with modern television. Since you're renewed yearly (or in very rare cases, maybe two at a time if you're SUPER popular), it's really difficult to create a long-term plan without inconsistencies or made-up bullshit or retcons. All that being said, I actually do think Lost did an admirable…

Nail on the head. Watch the other trailers and you can see he's using different swords. He uses the one from this trailer in one of the bigger boss fights in the last TGS trailer, and it looks just as 'sluggish' as here. I'm expecting the combat will be pretty varied.

Vaan and Penelo were forced on Matsuno by the higher-ups. He wanted Basch to be the main character and there would never have really been a contingent of young kids on the team. But you also have to realize that the target demographics for these games ARE teenagers and early-20s kids. That's why SE did what they did…

Eh, you can just look at the Tales series for a decent implementation. I'd personally hope for either a version of FFXII's gambits (so you don't have to think about it) or maybe Vagrant Story's quick menu, but it looks to me like they want to make this as seamless as possible.

I also only caught it once it finished (almost immediately after). I actually spent a lot of time reading all the various post-episode recap blogs as I went through the series, so I kind of experienced what people were going through WITHOUT the week-long waits between episodes (and breaks between seasons).

Thank you for this. I was gonna say, "The only thing that was murdered here was this Daily Show segment."
