I was hoping that when you called the number, the in-game phone would suddenly ring for a random player, and if the player answers your voice would be piped into his/her game.

I was going to make this joke but then realized I fell into the category. v.v

Better yet, scratch off his whole face, and repaint like this:

54. I screamed and shouted like a little girl when I saw Mewtwo.

Today on Kotaku; a commenter overreacts to an insane level in an astonishing display of hyperbole.

More at 11.

They did say so by mentioning that he'd be "FREE" to those with both games. Meaning those without the two games would need to pay to for him. They never said he would only be available to those with both.

Over the head of 3 quarters of the Simpsons audience, but to those of us who understand...Priceless.

The second is Jean Valjean's prisoner number from the book and musical "Les Miserables"

That Mr Game & Watch costume though. SO SEXY.

Very deceptive headline. For shame.

Okay, seriously. What in the actual fuck, folks?

I teach English at the college level; last year, I was privileged to teach ENG 230, which at my institution is a rotating (through the faculty) course that is generously labeled "Special Topics in Literature."

I taught my course, for two semesters, as "Gaming: Literary…

I genuinely liked that game... I was 13 and didn't exactly know much better, but it had mystery and some story that I liked.

Yeah that is true and I agree but even games based on the lore of popular movies/books/comics tend to suck. I'm still waiting on a super awesome Marvel game in the vain of the Lego games but not FREAKING Lego. I want some more depth you know?

There's a difference between a licensed game (ie: a Batman, LotR or Alien game) and a movie-tie-in game. The latter is simply based off an existing franchise, the latter has the game's development tied with the production of a movie, which often results in a rushed production and a generally crappy game.

So, a long time ago, I developed a pretty basic theory about how we respond to games: the closer to a game's release, the less critical of we are. There's just something about how the act of play changes our brain chemistry, and not necessarily in the best ways.

Real Smash Bros. Fact:

You know, that... wasn't horrible. In fact, I genuinely laughed at the punchlines. I still think it's a crime that they're going this kind of direction when the Sonic universe is capable of sustaining genuinely dark tones though. I don't know how much longevity this series will have with such a fluffy premise.

Be sure to check out Matthew Taranto's Brawl In The Family farewell video as well. I teared up once or twice. He's a jerk. http://brawlinthefamily.keenspot.com/2014/10/03/600…

That's the weird thing! All of this is true, yet I still play.

meh, regardless of game relation, this would be a badass statue to have for the sake of it being a badass statue. But yeah, waaaaay too much money, especially since it's really only bachelor pad material and will mysteriously disappear as soon as you have a significant other or kids...
