Ha! Good point. Where does the bicycle fit on the teachings of Yevon scale of machina.

I know the difference. Thanks. And the story wasn't only told in the datalogs. Throughout the dialog the fal'cie, primarily Barthandelus, clearly establish what the game universe and story is, and later Cid, not to mention Fang and Vanille. The datalogs expands on it, by going into it in greater depth, but it's…

I just re-watched it the trailer and you're correct. Still an odd place for a car to be. Plus who takes that kind of a car out on a dirt road.

XIII story was not that bad. It was fairly straight forward: you are a pawn in a battle between the Gods, and you are going to tell them to screw themselves. It's in XIII-2 and Lightning Returns where I think they lost me. The introduction of time travel (generally never a good idea) and creepy girls that just keep…

Square doesn't want to take the risk on that handheld. We have to face the fact that once again Sony botched the handheld market. We aren't going to get big titles on the Vita, which is fine, I guess, so long as they pack it full of lower tier content, perhaps third party apps, and strong connection to the PS4.

I'm excited. The only reservation I have is really small and just me overthinking things, which is the mix of the type of fauna and flora, along with the technology shown, seems weird. Like it's weird for society to build a road with a giant monster adjacent to it. And do you have regular cars when obviously…

I understand on a primal level the fear of sharks. Like I get it, but it's really sad, because sharks are pretty amazing. I've never understood the whole "I can't even go into water" though. Of the handful of sharks that actually pose a danger to humans, i.e. Bull, White, Tiger, Mako and Hammer (maybe), and Whale, if…

Nah, she's just black-ish.

This could be really good. The character not talking, besides calling the horse, reinforced the desolation and isolation. If they do make a money they would wise not to change that. A compromise would be that inbetween of battles with the Colossi there are flashbacks to the characters that give greater context as to…

Why is that silly? Do you have just any horse take part in the Kentucky Derby or do you rely on those that are specifically bred and have the stats to compete most effectively?

Well, not all are meant to be played competitively. Within the game any Pokemon can be used. I had a level 80 Pichu in Silver. That's always been a inherent aspect of the game. If you want to play competitively you can do that; however, if you want to play casually then stats don't really matter as much. The…

Disgusting, really!? I think it's actually pretty neat. They are growing and developing on her back not in her back. There is a special area for them to develop. And really is it anymore disgusting than what we humans do. We also come out of a whole in the body, covered in blood, afterbirth, and sometimes poop.

I get it. We can't stay on Earth forever, but running into outer space is not the next logical step in solving the problem of a growing population in the near future, especially if we are just sending a handful of people for the rest of us to just go all Lord of the Flies. Even if far distance travel becomes a reality…

I just came back from watching it. Early on I was fully behind everything I saw. The opening scenes. The incident at the plant. And even the initial follow-up. It was good. I was optimistic, and then I felt Hollywood creep into my movie and ruin the whole experience with cliches and go to tropes.

I'm skeptical as well. Not so much the Elite Four, you just have to keep losing and eventually you will powerful that way. No, what I think will do them in is Victory Road. That place is grueling. Add the fact that you have to use so many different HMs and coordinate placement of the boulders, I think a lot of people…

The problem seems to be that you are playing the game too well. The casual fun of the series comes from just having fun with it and not trying to be the most efficient and effective player. You can do that, but if you don't you can't blame the game for not being the casual one you wanted.

I dunno. I saw all of the trappings of usual Hollywood, like the misplaced romantic interest among some human couple that probably is going to account for the vast majority of the movie. Like female X is trapped in the city and male Y is a seal member working on this mission and will do something stupid to save her.

I don't think I would say there is a high entry bar. It's only if you want to complete the dex, and the game doesn't punish you at all if you choose not to; and seeing as you can only have 6 at a time, it doesn't really matter how many you have sitting in a box somewhere. I'm a completionist, so I took the extra…

The most I've ever had to do was go to a GameStop or Toys R Us to download an event. "Gotta Catch Em All" was a tag line from a couple of seasons of the anime. They dropped it quickly as the roster grew larger and it became less of a Pokemon of the show. In the games the focus is much more so on completing the Pokemon…

No, it's not possible, and it never was. From the beginning with Red and Blue players had to trade with someone else (or just have two Gameboys and both versions) to catch them all. Every generation after it got a bit more complicated as not all Pokemon from a previous generation is available in the next one, which is…
