Pshhhh there are female teachers having sex with male teens everyday in the US. Advantage: AMERICA!

Tragic indeed. And good to see someone who ISN'T making jokes about a real person's death.

The art had too much to it to be a simple "children's storybook" look to me. TO be honest, after watching that trailer I really felt as if I'd just watched a Pixar short. I may not be sold on the gameplay (YET), but anytime you feel like you've just experienced the artwork of masters, that says something.

Microsoft just doesn't have enough characters nor as rich a character portfolio. Like someone once joked, who would they have? Clippit the Paperclip?

That's what I would've done! I mean they didn't point any downsides to being a wizard.

Mockception?

I was going to say the same thing. I also thought the "DS" subtitles were fun. Like "Guilty Gear: Dust Strikers".

The Kevin Butler ads were obviously the most important for Sony this generation. They really helped drive sales. The Michael ad was brilliant though. All gamers have that connection no matter how brief with the game's main character(s) and feel that THEY helped that character win. The Sony All-Stars ad played lightly…

That was awesome. Haven't heard Fontalot in years.

There are plenty of "old wives tales" the world over, so "arousal causes nosebleeds" as a tale doesn't surprise me. However thinking of the "geyser" effect becoming a visual metaphor for ejaculation does make it make more sense. I'm know there are things in our comic/cartoon culture what makes Japan go WTF? And it…

I also find the Adroid loge very cute, but it's a robot so it's "guy approved". To each their own, but... I just wonder, how...

ZING!

I think that might be the best way to say it in the future, "Japanese-style RPG" and "PC-style RPG". They just would never be called "Light RPG" by fans HERE because of the inherent condescension of the term. They'd maybe even remark that the deeper stories makes "PC RPG"s the "light ones". In a few years we'll just…

I think that if they ever add anything to a game and you have to pay, you will feel like you're being punished for not getting it the "free/cheap" way. They're not TAKING a class away from you. So I guess you gotta look at it that way. The thing is, if they add something to a game less than 6 months after it comes…

You are on to something there. There is a noticeable difference between those two subgenres, and this is most evident to the fans of each subgenre. For decades the "light RPG" as you call it has gotten a lot of attention from console gamers. On the PC the "RPG?" has been more popular. There are many gamers who are…

The design and gameplay styles of the East and West are becoming more and more polarizing. It's getting to the point where people openly cry "I LOVE East/West gaming, but West/East games SUCK!" Being a gamer since the 80's I've seen both sides be on top and one point or another.

Was the article tl;dr?

Technically the joke should be "VP" of being sued.

It only does

Hall of the Mountain King owns all!
