They're getting a Kickstarter revival (I guess one of the original creators held onto the rights instead of Sega). Which has been a pretty dicey proposition for past nostalgia properties but hey, better than nothing?

Yeah, those characters are definitely the best example of how the game's storytelling sneaks up on you. My favorite part of the Dojima social link (apart from watching him accept the love of his family again, natch) is how it feels like he really opens up to you. At first he's very stand-offish that his punk big-city…

Yeah, exactly! That's an infinitely better summation of how the systems interact than what I said. It's not just the interplay between them, but how the game forces you to really master them and think about their interactivity as the dungeoneering gets more intense. (Side note: I dunno if I'd call P4 a "hard" game…

I don't really comment on this site much, but I've been absolutely beguiled by Persona 4 for the past month or so, so excuse me while I awkwardly crash this group date cafe.

Also you end up there because you were about to be imprisoned for reckless driving, but escaped and got hit by a train! It's the most bizarre ride in the park by a mile, even crazier than that Winnie the Pooh acid trip one.

That last room where you (SPOILER ALERT) get cast into the fiery pits of hell is so vaguely warm, though!

Please keep in mind this is a review by the man who compared the latest season of Arrested Development to that direct-to-video Tiny Toons movie. Half-true, purposely baiting comparisons are a good way for Vanderwerff to kill time as he wonders how he can stretch plot description and a vague thematic thesis to cover…

This comment couldn't be more drenched in Kool-Aid if a sentient pitcher crashed through it and shouted a deep-voiced affirmation.

I can't be the only one with no patience for this stuff anymore. You're a cult electronic duo who hasn't put out any music in nearly a decade. Just release the fucking record and get over yourselves.

Hello, is this Pixar? Good! I figured if anyone knew where to get some tang around here, it'd be you!

When AV Club members complain about something being too white, you can bet your near-transparent, pale nerd ass that it's pretty goddamn white.

This is one of those movies where I'm very psyched for it to come out, solely because I'm sick of seeing the trailer, commercials, posters, etc.

You don't want to pull this kind of thing at Yoshi's.The fact that he can lay eggs and that his sometimes-lover Birdo might secretly be a man means he has no time for this gender-normative, homophobic bullshit.

"…presumably butting up against its government’s strict laws prohibiting… ladies’ unbound feet."

Nerds all up in these comments.

I adore the first four Hold Steady records, but anyone besides the Pogues doing this is just plain unacceptable.

I always thought the best way to do a Half-Life movie would be to create a Ripley/Newt sort of relationship between Gordon Freeman and a young Alyx Vance, where he has to protect her and get her out of Black Mesa after everything goes to hell.

Well, sounds like my Hot in Cleveland-backing parents might finally dig it!

There are way more great shows about family than there are great sci-fi shows.

Way to stick it to CinemaScore! Those jerks have a lot of nerve asking people to sum up their movie analysis on an A-F grading scale.
