None of the dialogue or story has been changed and nothing has been taken out. It's literally just the cosmetic changes to costumes. Taken from impressions of the EU version, which will be identical to our version.

I don't care. Shut up and stop bringing up dumb reasons for people to try to back out of buying this game. It needs to sell extremely well so Square can see that this is the correct direction to take RPGs. Because it is. It has literally everything people have said Square has "lost."

Two-handed gives a large power boost, yes. Ninjas can also use two swords without penalty whereas equipping two swords on another class decreases the damage output of both.

As the guy who's finished more games than everyone, I don't really agree with a lot of these ideas.

Re: the voice acting, that's why you play it in French voices because those are the original voices and they're very good. And it doesn't have platforming so I don't know where that comes from. Not being able to continue combos after a dodge is on you though, that stuff got pretty easy.

That's not basing it on past outings at all though. The NSMB games and 3D Land aren't even by the same teams. And if you were to compare things, 3D Land should be compared to other portable Mario games, where 3D Land compares better than basically all of them. And NSMBU has better level design than just about every…

And that is why you rely on developer trends and their past outings rather than jump to conclusions based on two minutes of video.

Any singular game? Most people probably have me beat. Most games finished? I definitely have the most, even over professional game reviewers who are paid to play through games. Sitting at over 100 games finished per year for the last three years (final count is 356), I really doubt you could find anyone who's actually…

Yes, I did. I do not doubt EAD. It looked amazing from the start. People just need to stop judging games based on magical ideas of what they believe they should be and see them for what they are.

FF12 Revenant Wings was fine. Actually had some really good character development for Vaan and Penelo and the overall story was pretty neat. Gameplay was pretty different but whatever.

Good. They should all run away from home and find out that things are hard. They can get their money stolen and realize what a burden they've been on their family.

I'm sorry, I can't trust the criticism of any person who is being paid to play through a number of games before a deadline and because of that, 90% of gaming journalism is just dead to me.

If it does, then I'm out. I will just stop playing new games entirely and I'll stick to what I have.

I do not ever want his vision of Metroid to ever touch that series. I do not need another Bomberman Act Zero. Keep that away.

Release date lineups don't matter. They always sell because people are quick to buy stuff at launch, especially with hardware shortages. Even the Wii U sold well during its launch period.

Destiny, whatever. Division is probably not going to make 2014 and it has no release date, Titanfall, I've mentioned (and it's also on 360 and PC). Quantum Break has no release year attached to it yet either, in any of their footage so the possibility of that slipping is high as well. Watch Dogs is multiplatform for…

I really don't see a reason to even buy this thing. The cradle the Wii U sits in is very close to where I sit (largely because I planned it this way) so if I plan to game for a long period of time (such as the marathon of Mario 3D World I went through on release) I just...plug it in. Wow.

Those are really not exciting in any way. You've been conditioned to believe they are though. And I largely don't care about 3rd party lineups as nearly all of them will be on PC as well and I have a good PC where games are much cheaper as it is so there's zero reason to buy those games there.

Infamous is the only PS4 game out of those that's releasing before their one year anniversary. Titanfall is the only one for the Xbone. One major game each, everything else multiplatform and all of those are for 360/PS3 as well.
