Still waiting on that Magical Vacation localization! Dragon Quest X would be cool too!

I think it would be more fair to compare the tone of the film to the tone of Blizzard’s cinematics (very little ‘camp’ there). Also the hobbit movies are a modern example of the result of mashing goofball and serious tones together in a fantasy setting (the result was not good by any measure).

what is that

Great news then... 4 of the system’s very best games dropped to $20 in the last few weeks - Pikmin 3, Tropical Freeze, 3D world, and Bayonetta 2!

Really bad form to call a game you haven’t played “terrible” (star fox). It’s actually a really good, if maybe slightly underwhelming game from 2 developers that are at the tops of their games right now (EAD and Platinum).

How dependent are they on the sensor bar? Are you playing with a plus remote?

Played for 3 hours last night and had a great time - without adopting a prop legs on dog stance. What’s curious to me is you spend roughly 10 paragraphs fretting over the controls, when all you needed was to press the Y button (which you mention but are strangely resistant to) - then say that it’s hard to talk about…

You WILL find a better deal than this around the holidays - I got one last black friday at B & H for $1599.

Splatoon inevitably, some Mario Maker and hope to finish Xenoblade - on chapter 11. Maybe some Fates too, but I’m getting crushed by it admittedly (Birthright hard classic).

Not particularly new - certainly its been the practice this generation and much of the last one.

Nintendo.... of America... Marketing Department. Pretty unfair to call Nintendo, a Japanese company, a “fucking joke” when you’re being so ignorant on how the company is structured and operated.

I like the enthusiasm of the piece but your repeated use of language like “thematic”, “narrative”, “conceptual”, “explicit” detracts from, rather than illuminates the points you seem to want to make. If you’re going to make a statement like “F-Zero surpassed the thematic strength of the more conceptual racing games on…

You’re in luck! Soulcalibur series producer and main programmer Masaaki Hoshino and (presumably) other members of the defunct Team Soul just had their game released a few days ag0 - Pokken Tournament!

There’s a discussion on Neogaf about it. Looks like it does work as direct input, but not x input (meaning compatibility is case by case).

I just wish whatever style they use, it’s more consistent. Some of the enemies look like they’re from completely different games.

There’s a price to being locked into the Sony Playstation 4 Experience - ads, licensing fees paid to sony on every game, and the nearly essential $50/ year Playstation Plus subscription (adding $300 easily over the PS4's lifetime), but nobody wants to think about these costs.

These look more like “modestly sized” robots.

Don’t forget Pikmin 3!

2 was the only one that did its own thing, and did it well. The rest are utterly generic.
