I was kind of shocked the first time I went on nico nico live almost everyone was smoking, even the girls. I was surprised to see so many girls smoking because Japanese girls are really into beauty and such and cigarettes do horrible things to your skin, teeth and voice on top of the obvious internal damage.

They should have gone for something like Cartoon All-Stars to the Rescue and had Kenshiro appear. "If you smoke, you are already dead."

LMAO

These kids know what's cool.

There were a handful of obvious differences (like the tire detail) but I think we can all agree that the game looks very pretty on all platforms, even the last gen ones.

I have too many favorites here.

Yeah, Bikes need miniguns to defend themselves. It's their god damn right to have machines of mass destruction.

This is absolutely appalling. We need to stand up for bike rights and protection services. Bikes are humans too.

I'm sort of in the same boat. I played Infamous 1 but not for very long. That usually seems to happen whenever I play open-world games. I run around doing crazy stuff until I get bored and move on. On the other hand, I can easily put tons of hours into Musou games...

No, Inafune's answer to the lack of quality is starting an independent studio.

The most common work environment of the 21st century — sitting in front of a computer and teaming up with remote co-workers to rapidly solve evolving problems — looks a lot more like gaming than…

So he copies the text once, hits send, then walks away while the other guy receives 1,000 text messages one…

Internet, please. Time Warner Cable. Make it so.

Bash, you have no idea how grateful I am that you were able to do this interview. I have been wondering what IGA has been up to ever since LoS started. My wife and I have loved his Castlevania games and made it an annual thing of ours to always buy the newest Castlevania game, no matter what. Even when IGA departed…

Some people dislike the 64 games. When the game came out, the only thing that was in my mind was "a 3D Castlevania? f**k yeah!"

What is a fan!?

"That's an option," Iga said, taking a sip of coffee. "There are many options, such as venture capital."

Sadly, the full-sized version is too big.

You see the thing is JRPGs are often cheerful. The characters all help each other out and respect each other. They tend to focus on the importance of not only friendship and family, but also not giving up when the chips are down. When times are rough these are important messages and a colorful cast of characters that…
