I'm with you on everything else but the Mario & Luigi games do have plots even if they come of as simplistic at times. Unless you mean the Mario franchise on the whole in which case we're actually completely in agreement.

We're getting Xillia 2, Hearts R and Zestiria. Who cares about the lackluster spinoff titles?

Not like this is one of the main titles. It's just Tales of the World. And these games suck anyway.

If you think about it, it was the lack of towns that hurt Skyward Sword. Because they didn't spend enough time world building, the game didn't have that same feeling of life that other titles had. There were no interesting races to meet or NPCs to get to know outside of the small Skyloft.

This is pretty fucking great if you ask me. It feels like a sign Nintendo is actually trying to reach out and try new strategies. It's a good thing no matter how you look at it. And it's free. No harm at all. People who's gut reaction is "this feels wrong" need to ask themselves why it feels wrong. The answer is…

I'm trying so hard to star this more but they just don't give us enough stars....they don't give us enough stars!

My brother just got a 2013 Optima a couple months ago. It is a pretty nice car. Apparently they even got the designer for Audi to come and modernize their car designs which is pretty clear when you see the things in person. It fits right in alongside my 2013 A6.

It's free DLC. Where is the slope down which to slip?

Twice before it's even out? I suppose it would be better to just wait until release and then change the name eh?

If I had to guess a platform I'd say 3DS though I'd love to see it on a home console. PS4 seems like it would be too expensive with not a large enough install base for the way Square likes to roll the dice. PS3 would probably feel too old by the time the game would be ready leaving the 3DS as the console with the…

3DS would make the most sense. They usually drop the DQ games on platforms with the largest install base and right now that's the 3DS. They could opt for PS3 but by the time it releases the PS3 will be even older. Still played by millions though, obviously.

While you can spot the differences if you look closely enough or have an artist's eye for facial detail (the cleft above her lip, shape of her face, lines by her nose, area under the eyes) even I have to admit that they share some similarities (those eyes)

Typical misguided gamer:

Wait wait wait...Women have breasts? What the fuck, cover them all up. Put these fuckers in burkas!!!

Ha, I forgot about this thread. I.m convinced you don't know what the word "loser" means though.

Can you really call that a spinoff though? She already exists as her own character. Using SvB as a way to intoruce the character to people seems like a sound strategy to me. If they're going full on shared universe from here onward then why not have them cross over? She can easily show up in the last 20 minutes of the…

Yea and I said that in my post. This post however is like saying "If you needed an illustration of why bikinis are stupid, here is a picture of Solid Snake in a bikini on the battlefield."

Lol yea that's pretty dark. Though I knew a guy who said that he would have killed himself a long time ago if it weren't for the fact he was waiting for the release dates of cool and new things. (as another interesting and somewhat sad aside).

I never said moving to a console would be a bad thing or anything. It could obviously do much for the series. But you're talking taking things in a new direction and a console version isn't inherently a new direction. They built the games with the idea that kids would be taking their consoles all over the place with…

All Gen III had was Camerupt, Torkoal and Magcargo. Ninetails if you want to include stuff from prior generations. They at least gave us Magmortar in GenIV but they don't really introduce a lot of fire types and we always get way too many water types. X/Y at least felt like it had a more balanced distribution.
