What hath the edit function wrought?

Yeah, that looks spot-on. I'd always thought the first three notes were high as well, but I was probably fooled by the timbre of the cello into thinking it was in the higher octave instead of the lower.

@avclub-45ef3d6b4c379e04803fa271c035e844:disqus : Oh, true, the background always makes it hard for me to pick out exactly which octave the cello is in, so I always thought it started high, but it could be that it starts low and then leaps a fifth up for the fourth note. I'll listen closer next time, but either way…

Angel and Buffy aren't set in the same universe? I saw the first six seasons of Buffy and the first three of Angel, and I know at least for a time they were playing up the crossover aspect (quite well actually), but if they started to drift apart and explicitly contradict each other later on, I wouldn't know.

Yoko Kanno thread GOOOOO!

Yeah, Yoko Kanno alone has probably written at least ten intro songs that belong in this discussion.

Butt hat! Uh… Hattin'… butts!

Am I the only one who noticed that the very beginning of the Angel theme (the cello part) starts with the same four notes that comprise the Buffy theme? I assume it was intentional given that the shows use the same universe and that the themes are even in the same key.

That still doesn't indicate that Namco Bandai had anything to do with the change to peer-to-peer connections. But I know that the internet just likes to decide things on their own.

大いなる力には、大いなる責任が伴う！ピーター君！

Actually, look up top! It's not a 5. It's a C.

アンチャーテッド、じゃなくフー・ファーテッド、だな！？

But you have to admit the garlic diarrhea is awesome.

I hear they sing real harsh in that one.

Scott Jones gave the game a 5? Where do you see that?

That was Namco's decision and not From's?

I find it curious why much of the gaming public seems to assume that any issues encountered with Dark Souls' online play should be blamed on the change in publisher.

So yell at Metacritic for doing their job poorly. A C rating on the A.V. Club just means the reviewer wasn't terribly impressed. If Metacritic were making any actual effort to synthesize the myriad scoring systems realistically, this would be treated as a score in the low-to-mid 70s. Not that that would placate the…

this sight isn't even real, its a hate sight setup by Micro$oft, well it WONT WORK, Sony is going to sell millions of PS3s with this game and you losers will still be in you're moms basement on this fake no-name sight talking about your stupid Apichatpong Weerasethakul and Peter Dinklage who DONT EVEN EXIST,…

Part of the problem is that Metacritic performs their letter-grade-to-number conversion on a flat scale, so that a "C" review as above gets converted to a "50/100", smack dab in the middle of the scoring system. Which would be fine, except that most of the gaming press for some reason uses an academic-type scale…
