Am i the only one who is slightly irritated by the fact that Omega Ruby is listed to the left of Alpha Saphire?

Or is this actually Japanese footage which has only been translated, thus making the whole right to left thing work again?

In an office somewhere in Miami, Pat Riley's trembling hand moves his mouse forward, to the font drop-down, and selects "Comic Sans"

More coming soon on this, obviously.

Oh, stop your whining. This is actually one of the most entertaining stories of the week. If you want nothing but articles about release dates and DLC trailers, there are plenty of other gaming websites out there for you.

I want to backup a little and put my train back on track because I'm coming off like I'm against diversity in games and I'm not. I enjoy and encourage diversity greatly and I agree that it'd be nice to see more of it in games outside of RPGs which have always done an excellent job of being inclusive (Mass Effect and…

Those are six games in an industry where three hundred new games come out every day with gruff white dudes as the protagonists. Six out of three hundred is not a good statistic. More diversity is appreciated.

Actually, I think that's pretty sad.

The thing is that some developers seem to get a free pass. Like Rockstar, nobody says shit to them about why there isn't a playable female character in GTA or why women are usually so poorly depicted in that game series. Instead they get nothing but praise and accolades from the gaming media even though their games…

I'll be short and sweet here.

And as per usual there is (and will be) a huge amount of people here who just don't understand the argument being made here (straw man arguments everywhere!!)

Awesome! Thank you for the insight Stephen :) I'm actually really glad they decided not to put Mario in this one. It's a lot more risky but I think it has great potential as a new IP.

I asked them about Sunshine, and while they said that they play so many games that they can't help but be influenced by them, Sunshine was not part of the conception of the game. They did say, as I noted, that they briefly had Mario in the game.

Definitely. I'm actually hoping for a special map in delfino plaza where Mario tries to run around, cleaning up the mess.

I don't know about anyone else, but I'm going to tinker with my color settings on my TV to show more grays and browns to make sure this shooter meets the industry standards.

Well Drake sort of quit the business at the end of 3, if I'm remembering correctly. And from the trailer it sounds like something or someone is forcing him back in against his will (or better judgement).

Fixed that for ya: http://jalopnik.com/5141430/how-to…

I knew this WWI veteran who was illiterate, but he was a poet. He kept all his poems in his head. He suffered from PTSD, although no one called it that back then. He had no family left and lived all alone in a shack; sometimes at night you could hear him howling. I was too young to rate or remember his poetry, but he…

Sure, but if he was a fat, middle-aged, white guy you'd be all "Megan's Law" this and that.
