@Jordan_KZ: It's a nice thought, but I think CommodoreRake is right that it's not practical. There are indeed people who need our money much more in the world. That said, I think it WOULD be nice to send the guy stuff from our own collections. I have a set of those hanafuda cards I don't need, for example. All…

I'm still a strong believer in in-game music, but I do occasionally make exceptions. I got tired of the music on Eggmanland while earning my Platinum in Sonic Unleashed, for example...when I turned on some Powerglove, it really helped me get through it! I never really liked the music in Hexic HD (what there was,…

@Gungnir: I also wear glasses, but have no problem wearing theatrical 3D glasses because they're big enough to fit over my own glasses. Even if I did have that problem, though, this "solution" looks like a terrible idea.

@LaurenIsSoMosh Is So Trollin': I just saw those in the store for the first time today. Hadn't been in there since November, hence my not knowing of the very recent addition.

@L3gato: Okay, yeah, they did come out with some of those when the Go launched, but I was talking about the extent to which they already had with 360, covering a wide variety of XBLA games and add-on content. Which brings me to my next reply...

@Mikekearn has an overly long username: That depends on how strong their unidexterity (fun with made-up words!) is, and how authentic they want their movements to be. As a lefty myself, I couldn't convincingly wave a sword around in my right hand. That's also why I glare at the Wii Zelda games screwing up my…

Yeah...GameStop's been working on this behind the scenes for quite a while. I learned of it a year or so ago while working there. The plan is indeed to set up a deal with Microsoft so that all you'd need to give GameStop is your Gamertag and the rest runs through computers. They also want to do the same with PS3,…

@Mikekearn has an overly long username: Cosplayers aren't the only ones with that problem... *Glares at Skyward Sword and the Wii edition of Twilight Princess*

Yeah, Amazon. At least, that's my go-to place now that I, too, have gotten sick of GameStop.

@agent010: I know a latina/black couple who have two kids. I do agree that most of the interracial couples I know (and I do know several) are black/white.

If 60-70 is too much, I'm in big trouble, as I have well over twice that. :P

@Plastixblue: I was trying to figure out why Naughty Dog's logo was in the picture...I suppose your answer makes slightly more sense, but it does raise the question of why the two are EXACTLY the same.

@Rawrnosaurous: Good decision. I made that choice a while back. I know it'll take a LONG time for enough people to make that choice to actually hurt their bottom line much if at all, but it still just seems right to me. Of course, it doesn't hurt that Activision completely fails at making games I want to play…

@Mizzle fo Shizzle: The original games were indeed absurdly clunky. This trilogy, however, comes from a different, better developer. The controls are far superior, so I would recommend giving it a go.

@sharibetsu: Screwed up is an accurate description of the entire YEAR time jump. I will agree that smaller periods aren't really a problem, but anything that results in Rafflesia all over the town CAN'T be good.

@dracosummoner: They would, because taking more time to make the game costs more money for development...that seems to be why these games are usually rushed out to begin with, to capitalize on the movie's hype with no real concern for the game's quality whatsoever. Of course, this is MOST often the case with…

@dracosummoner: Oh, I think I misread your post...looking at it again, that makes more sense.

@MrGerbz: I suppose that's precisely why: Great developers have better things to do. :P

@dracosummoner: There's a very substantial difference with the games you just mentioned, though: They aren't timed releases. Generally speaking, you have better odds of a licensed game being good if it's made on its own timetable instead of being attached to a film. That's especially helpful if it gives you more…

@Vecha: Kotaku Friends work like the Stock Market: Yeah, I figure all it REALLY took was a relatively famous person who could get Kotaku to pay attention to him. ;)
