DMC3 is dumb in the sense of actually looking at things happening onscreen, not necessarily the storytelling or gameplay aspects. Like riding a rocket like a surfboard. A demon lady turning into an electric bat-spewing guitar and having the main character shred with her. A giant horse-drawn chariot that can stop time…

How weird is it that we live in a societal situation where tweets are relevant items in court, or are at least being presented as such? It makes sense that they are, considering the nature of libel and defamation suits, but it’s still crazy to think about.

I get the feeling Melania’s the smartest one in the whole family, since she’s practicing the age-old strategy of “Out of sight, out of mind” while everyone else is poised to go down in flames.

In all fairness, he did have one win in his tenure so far: He got himself and his buddies their tax breaks. Nothing for anyone in his base that isn’t a millionaire, though. Although that was going to happen with anyone in the office with an R next to their name anyway, since they’ve been salivating for that garbage…

Slightly different rosters of selectable Pokemon. It’s meant to encourage the trading aspect of the game, as one version alone is unable to Catch ‘Em All without trading.

Well that would make sense. I recall vaguely hearing something about that, but I never saw the footage. Still, shouldn’t that have been cleared beforehand?

I’ve never seen someone actually do the hair touching thing in person, but I’ve heard enough stories that I have no doubt it happens. The worst one was a roommate of mine told me about her cousin’s trip to China. Not only would people there try to touch her hair, they wouldn’t even ask, and instead would just…

They not only beat everyone else to the joke (What next, TETRIS?), they made the genuinely most fun game in the genre. By being the one least like the genre.

How about an actual Battle Royale game? Very very few guns, instead people get fishing rods and shit.

Good. EVO doesn’t need 2 Smash games. Especially when we’ve not only got Ultimate to make most of those fans happy, but we need to make room for the new blood. Samurai Shodown, MK11, Soul Calibur VI are all games with audiences that would like to have their game represented. Also worth noting that Injustice 2 is also…

After reviewing the speech with a panel of other white folks, the concensus all members of the panel came to regarding the question of “Was it Racist?” was such:

First they did the Mario bit when they announced the location, now they’re going in with the Akira comparison. Seems like they’re really pushing the games and anime aesthetic for this particular Olympics Games.

Well hey, Shoemaker, Baker, and Weaver all came from somewhere!

Aonuma’s been stepping into a more visible place in recent years. I’m not sure how long he’s got left, though, as he’s been around just as long as the rest of the old guard.

He seems like a super nice guy, and he’s VERY aware of all the gags with his name. Hell, from what we’ve seen of him in the past, he’s usually the first one to make them! I’m optimistic, and wish him the best. I wouldn’t be surprised if we see him at the E3 Direct.

It’s so weird to say that I’m going to miss a guy in position as a company president, especially as a guy who was never a developer himself. But that goes to show just what an excellent job he did in terms of fostering a brand, and how engaged he always stayed with the community of customers and fans he was working to…

Well, I said they’d been getting better, not that they were at the point they need to be yet.

Well I’m just talking about this particular case. If you don’t even know who Triple H is, there’s a LOOOOOOOT of context and history you’re unaware of in this case. The quick and dirty of it is that Chyna started her on-screen career as his bodyguard, then stayed in a role as the muscle of DX. They were in a backstage…

Honestly, I never saw this as a misogyny issue, and more of a backstage drama and optics issue, almost entirely related to Triple H and the bad breakup they had.

Question of technicality: Does this also include Rick Rude? He was there briefly at the beginning, before leaving for WCW. I’d imagine not, though.
