Catching up on the ‘old’ Far Cry 4. Really like the open world, it reminds me a lot of Just Cause 2, especially the accents of the enemies! “Send in reinforcements!”. The only quibble I have is the horrendous controls, but I’m glad that the story isn’t as pompous as it was in Far Cry 3.

Tarantino loves to use exploitation tropes in his movies, but they still have a plot and some damn fine acting. ‘Death proof’ comes closest to an exploitation movie, especially the second half (the ending, wow!).

The first punisher movie was with Dolph Lundgren. That movie was great in a corny eighties sort of way. I haven’t seen the other two...

Produced by the man behind ‘Ghost Rider’ and ‘The Punisher’... already enough to make grown men burst into tears. This could become WORSE than the Akira remake.

Takeshi has never made ‘exploitation films’... That term is used to describe movies that feature sex and violence from start to finish without a noticable plot or acting qualities :) Not that that isn’t fun, it’s just not what Takeshi does.

But he tells it like it is! And he’s got money!

Yeah it’s a lot of shooting isn’t it? Not even all that easy either! At some point I started wondering why Drake is even getting into these adventures, where he has to shoot hundreds of Russians to get to some trinket :) Still these are really great games, I can’t wait for part 4.

Doesn’t sound very appealing sadly. I loved the series when it was an alternative to Advance Wars: just combat and tactics. I don’t see why it had to turn into a fan-servicey anime... :(

A movie without actors! Blasphemy!

LBP was brilliant but inaccessible (and sequels failed to improve the formula - instead they added furbys). In LBP it took days, or even weeks to make a good level, whereas in MM you can make a good, fun level in 10 minutes.

The video is not available in my country... (no, really)... I’m almost afraid to google it.

True, Disney has the same problem... Some of their movies could easily be nominated for a “best movie” oscar, but instead all they ever win is “best animated movie”. I almost think it’s an insult!

Games need more buttslaps, not less! I’d also like to suggest a new rating system for fighting games and an emoticon to go with it.

Nintendo just can’t shake the ‘kiddy game’ image no matter what they do. Mario Maker is an achievement in game history, a celebration of a game series that’s been popular for decades, and a tribute to all the gamers who have loved mario games for all those years. It deserves a Nobel prize, but all it gets is a ‘family…

Rebeardth... sorry....

“Japanese creators are famous for being loose with schedules”...

We made a game with LOTS of suggestive poses, barely dressed characters, almost naked butts, fan service stapled upon fan service, and then we removed a tiny little butt slap because it might be offensive...

It reminds me of Japanese maps in older games. They always had their signs upside down, and just randomly googled because it looked Asian enough to create an atmosphere. They also mixed up Japan and China the whole time. These days you can’t get away with that anymore, and in that sense I can understand that a highly…

This isn’t a party though... it’s a discussion about what you can and cannot depict in video games, and to what level user content should be curated.

Talking about hate crimes and then saying “I will never forgive this”... That’s exactly the way to keep hate alive instead of constructively searching for a solution.
