@cesca07: Well spoken. No western game has ever engaged me emotionally like FF could.

I wonder how they will fund all this without a monthly fee

Which is better, Sexy Beach 3 or Rapelay?

@businessbard: Had LittleJohn been charged in a court of law, what you are saying would be relevant. But because this is a company, what matters is not whether or not one says the right thing, but whether the customers perceive it to be the right thing. It doesn't matter how correct you may be—if the customers are…

@RawSteelUT: Unfortunately, Sony and Nintendo aren't just going to sit back and let MS take those markets. And what is supplying the financial backing to fund their marketing campaigns? In large part it comes from the reliable domestic Japanese market. MS might not be doing a good job, but it's got to do something…

@RawSteelUT: Japan is an important market not because of the revenue potential for MS, but because its a source of steady income for Nintendo and Sony. If MS doesn't disrupt this, they wouldn't be effectively competing.

@indrawnperson: Yes, I strongly think the character designs, rather than the personalities, made them popular. It's hard to describe why, but those designs are simultaneously mysterious, frail, and sexy.

@N-Robes: I personally think it's because Rei was among the first anime characters to really stimulate rescue fantasies. There she was, so silent, so mysterious, so hurt inside. Every guy wanted to "save" her. The fact that she was a 14 year old with developed breasts probably helped too

30 somewhat balanced characters is better than a 40+ character roster with only 5 viable in tourneys. God, they should just spite everyone by removing storm, sentinel, cable, and magneto.

@Recoil: Think Watchmen violence. It's practically the same type.

@Sl0th: @Komrade Kayce:

Miranda just not that hot. Look at the jawline, and those big lips.

@resvrgam: Where exactly have I stated or insinuated that you are male?

@resvrgam: No, YOU don't get that Japan is not the male-dominated society people western media portrays it as. Women in Japan do not feel objectified, they don't feel threatened. It might shock you to know that Japanese women actually hold all social power, and that men continually feel beholden to women. You…

@resvrgam: You're right, it's difficult to sympathize when I haven't personally been groped on the train. But I've done the next best thing—directly interact with those who have been victims. Have you done even that?

@General Gumball: My god, problem solved....

@resvrgam: The point is, a trivial problem that only affects a tiny minority of people can be easily overblown when companies overcompensate to assure their customers of safety.

@Falconboom: @Toshiya: But where will he light his cigarettes?

@resvrgam: I lived in Tokyo for two years. I don't recall ever seeing signs that said ちかん注意。 But even if they were there, I wouldn't call that indicative of high molestation rates. Recall McDonald's putting "Caution: HOT" on all coffee cups because one stupid granny burned herself and sued big time.
