In some ways, I keep thinking this is the game Heavy Rain should've been. Very different gameplay, obviously, but the hype around Heavy Rain made such a big deal about investigation and player choice/performance-dependent outcomes, then the actual game made such paltry use of those angles. Even if the story in L.A.…

As Teti's said at least once, and possibly more, they publish the reviews when they do so that people can have worthwhile discussions about them after actually having a week to play them. If they published the L.A. Noire review today, we'd have nothing to say but "Well, that is/is not what *I* thought based on the…

Also, inFamous 2 is out June 7th. That's one of those cases where, as long as they improve on the first at all and don't actively screw anything up, it could be spectacular.

@Migrant: Speaking of Crysis 2, it was in a thread under that review that Mike argued earnestly and at length that disliking FPSs in general is racist. In fact, that was just part of a long, hilarious thread with more than enough evidence that little Mikey here is a genuine imbecile.

It's just as well. L.A. Noire comes out next week, so anything else to do with L.A. and crime will be redundant soon enough.

The Mighty Boosh
Having just re-listened to the radio series, I'm reminded that I really, really want to see the soap-opera-like Calabos the Crab.

But from my point of view, I should have scrolled down farther before making a similar joke above!

But from my perspective, the USA network is evil!

Hooray! I love stationery almost as much as I love wordplay. Lined paper rules!

There, see? While we're at it, I also think:

That picture alone could comprise at least 70% of the case for why bears are the best living things ever. Of course, such a case would only be necessary if anyone was ever ass enough to doubt this clear fact.

Prepositions?

Really? I thought it was rather clever. Maybe it seems cornier from the perspective of not actually understanding what it means.

Stay together, cheeks!

And the sequel's only a couple of transposed letters away from the much more worthwhile-sounding "Darespork."

Nearly anything from Katamari Damacy. "Etoule Pucoratte" (can't believe I spelled that right from memory), the ending song from Loco Roco.

The dictionary has two definitions for "disinterest," the second being "lack of interest in something."

Botanophilia.

Because his name is right in the title! Until halfway through production, when they decide they want to court the highly sought-after francophile market and change the name to "The Scarlet Pimpernel Reborn."

Or perhaps the deer is a lie.
