@Dynastius: no,you are right. "relatively gorgeous" is a meaningless phrase. This means that it is gorgeous for me and hideous for someone else. That does not really say anything about the overall beauty of the graphics. It's a cop-out phrase to use when reviewing a product as it lacks conviction in identifying if…

@illustrator...er: sparkly bra is indeed ridiculous.

Great article! I remember when that PSX opening sound/music would come on, it always reminded me of Blade Runner.

@togovero: the best! that little noise and that plain screen reminds me of so much fun on long car trips

@MrGOH: i feel the same way. I hope it's really successful so we can see the other books play out on screen too. There are some scenes I know will be awesome to watch.

@Jorw: zing!

so these are awesome, right?

@lepas: yikes! that is craaaaaaazy!

@UERD: But that doesn't mean art has to be used for a kind of cynical social currency. Some people just enjoy art that looks nice or connects with them in some way.

looks nice. Also reminds me of "El Viento". Remember that game?

Definitely use ComicZeal, and also download Dropbox so you can access your comic files from your dropbox. it is super handy, and you don't have to keep a billion huge files loaded onto your device. I can read an issue, delete it, download a new one from my dropbox, and open it in ComicZeal. I love the future!

the colors on Afterburner seemed so much brighter than the arcade!

@Laurence Collins: I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that you can create a character and that there are skill trees and stuff...but maybe you choose a pre-made character and then advance through some skill trees...? As long as you don't have to choose that godawful Adam-X guy they showed a while back.

@Krackato-ATOMIC COLLIDER!: for real. gold trophy. Also, I assumed you could like any character you wanted.

Legend of Mana sounds and looks so pretty that it is totally worth 6 bucks.

@kelz: And now the spider element....uh, right?

In portable games, I should be able to save whenever I want, because I will never know when I will have to shut off my machine (e.g. plane takeoff, bus stop, etc.). I don't like it when portable games have checkpoints or save centers that are far away.

@Chewblaha HATES THIS LAYOUT: Yes, keep them in public memory. None of these guys should be rewarded with something like a cover photo, Vick included.

@SecretMoblin: I think it helped that it was on Netflix instant watch too. My mom was the one that told us to watch it!

@symphonycometh: that's the kind of stuff I think people forget about this game. Sure, it was mostly scenery and quiet wandering, but every once in a while you actually got to do amazing stuff like shoot a flying dragon with arrows and then jump off a horse onto it. That is incredible stuff, b/c once you do it, the…
