A lot of people started with the classic Symphonia (at the time it was because it was the most publicized of the Tales english releases, but it encompasses much of what made Tales good) - which you can now get on PS3 as well as GCN. But as many have said before, there are only a few continuity sequels (Symphonia: Dawn…

Curious as someone who hasn’t played - is this enemy a hard enemy from later in the game moved to this location when the game sees the trigger of ‘slaughter cows and wait around’? Or is it a new model/enemy ai they created specifically for this?

Well yes. http://www.mightyno9.com/

Forget the Transistor parallels - if you think about it, he’s wearing the same colors as the Kid from Bastion. Is this just the summary ‘we-love-supergiant’ character? Cuz I’m down for that.

As someone rather less familiar with most of your games (I think I could look at a game you’d worked on and remember ‘oh yeah, that was one of Tim’s’, but I haven’t played a considerable amount of any of them), where would you tell a prospective player to start within the Schafer pantheon? If there’s not a clear…

billysan — for the win!

Sigh you're probably right. Last time I put up with a vine wrapper was to play audiosurf - ahhh, good, laggy times~

More than you'd think, and less than you'd hope.

Stupid question - when we say it's also on PC - we do imply that it is NOT coming to mac right? Cuz I'd really love to play this on my mac :(

But the important question to be asked is - does anyone know when the SOUNDTRACK is coming out? Cuz I'm gonna be all over that shit~

...man, I do not remember the 90s being that fucking RAD.

*fixed ;)

Gotcha. Horror is a genre I definitely needta be in the mood for to enjoy, but I'll definitely keep an eye on this one. Thanks Leo!

As someone who's just now hearing about this game, honest question - is there like a story/arc to it? I feel like the concept just begs for some kind of tale about the son of Satan dethroning Satan or becoming good or something like that - and I'd really like a game with that kind of arc. But I could also see it being…

Am I the only one reading through all these comments just so I can read Leo's replies out loud in a 'Leo' voice?

If you can make the trip up to LA, you may want to check out Round 1 Arcade at the Puente Hills mall in the City of Industry. If you're looking for a high end arcade in your immediate area, that's it - Japanese import rhythm, shooter, and side-scroller games, combination bowling alley and karaoke, card-based credit…

With respect, I think it's a little close minded to take the idea of definitions literally as referring to the dictionary definitions of words when it comes to discussion. People often need to define basic principles on which they would otherwise disagree. I understand that seems cumbersome, but if two people come…

Agreed~ (The Neil pic is blurred since you haven't been approved, but I'll assume it's salient).

I was very impressed with Transistor - highly recommended.

A thank you to all the constructive members of this chat, who have provided interesting counterarguments to my perspective. Obviously the post was inflammatory, designed to attract contradictory viewpoints, and the resulting discussion has been enlightening, and would not have been, if not for the pleasant amount of…
