I agree, that over stylized look is not Metroid. I like the art but a Metroid TV series that looked that way would be silly.

Because the "equally capable" comment is ONLY for visual dogfighting, a last resort combat scenario that is only part of a fighter's overall mission. It's superior in many other aspects, such as stealth tech to avoid SAM and other enemy fighter instruments. It's like saying that the M-1's anti-infantry machine gun is…

Is the whole article ignoring the fact that visual dogfighting is only one aspect of a fighter’s capabilities? And not even the biggest part?

Zabant,

Excellent analogy!

You pretty much nailed it. Krugman has been discredited and shown to be wrong so many times that he pretty much brings down the credibility of any organization he writes for.

And even crazier, the Wii U is the top selling console! That's just silly.

MissAshley,

No, that’s not at all what I believe. Funny you should say that. :)

The Xbox 360 controller is probably the best controller I have ever played and I have owned/played nearly every system back to the Atari 2600 and Intellivision. Of course it is only my subjective opinion.

Ah, yeah. It's practically a shameless marketing thing at this point. The number of shows, commercials, ads, basically all forms of entertainment now are injecting same sex couples to take advantage of the current hype. It's well beyond the natural representation of 1-2% of the population. In fact it's so over done in…

Yeah, except his point was that it seems to the cliché lately and not story driven.

I don’t know Nathan’s age but perhaps he’s too young and didn’t grow up in the eighties. Just a guess but maybe he doesn’t have the frame of reference.

This movie was awesome. I know it’s hip to be counter to everything these days but I guess I just don’t care to be hip (oh wait, did I just go counter?).

Well, I guess that’s exposes the stupidity of trying to cater to ratings. One thing or another will eventually offend someone, unless you want to make it into a Disney version of the thing.

I understand why people are worked up. When ever there is a replacement of a white superhero it always goes to black people. I was really hoping that the Spiderman reboot would feature an Indian (and not native American) as Peter Parker. I mean Spiderman is really only a suit. I think other minorities don’t think it’s…

Game looks great to me and both videos of comparisons look very similar on both platforms. I frankly don't see the controversy over any other game that looks better in early tech demo version versus the final optimized version.

Bread,
