That's helpful advice. Thanks! But before I do, I'll ready myself by arching my back and displaying my ass in a 'come hither' fashion. I'll then do a little hop to shake my boobs, because that gives me the power up I need. Only after that will I be capable of lifting said rock and hiding away under it.

Ha. Seriously. We've got crouch, but they still can't stomach having a female assassin in a 'proper' game, it seems. Not even in their trailer where they feature not one, but four fucking assassins.

As a Nintendo fan, I consider myself the target audience and I found it a bit offensive. So I guess trees DO make a sound.

Oops! My bad. Anime then. (You can see how much exposure I have to the genre - apologies).

If only they really knew how to USE social media and address some of the clear concerns everyone has about their trajectory. I feel like Nintendo understands social media about as much as my long dead grandparents would understand how to use an iPad.

Ah, okay. I'm glad we've got people like you around to tell us how it is. The next close up of a dude's cock I get outside of 'Batman and Robin', I'll be sure to let you know!

You know, for example... *yawn*!

Yeah, same here actually.

The city of Paris in Assassin's Creed Unity will be the largest city in the series' history

Oh Christ. Your post has succeeded in pissing me off. Thanks for that! Why the hell didn't we get that game?

Are you, per chance of the advanced age of 13 and now feel that you've graduated to 'mature' titles on the more 'adult' systems? All of E3 was a yawnfest - Nintendo included - but everyone else's characters need hoods and gruff voices to be 'cool'. Tired and trite. Next!

Patricia, did no one acknowledge the blatant sexualisation of Palutena? A few of us were discussing this on that thread. When they thrust her butt and chest out, I felt like I was watching tasteless manga.

I posted this a bit further down. I really think Nintendo believes it's being cool...

Good point, absynthium. Here's a full motion version. Thanks, Nintendo, for being so fucking mature about your representation of female characters...

I agree with you. If only the GC controller had a better C-stick and proper shoulder buttons, it would be the top of the heap.

Really? That's incredible. I've got two. Maybe I could fund my next holiday by selling those bad boys. Meh...I guess I'll keep them.

Who else thought it was weird when they suddenly thrust Palutena's ass out and then focused on her breasts? Seemed so out of place.

If only. That would be cool. Didn't look female to me, however.

I played a bit of skyward sword last night and MAN, the fucking controls are so annoying. The sword rarely does what it's supposed to and I find myself always having to manually reset the wii mote to the centre of the screen. Such a ball ache. Makes Twilight Princess for the Wii operate like a fucking masterpiece.
