Metal Gear Solid did it!

Considering that a french colloquialism for orgasms is “la petite mort” - the little death, I believe this brings a new meaning to dying and becoming as gods.

I’m pretty sure this won’r even come close to what Yoko Taro would do if he had the chance to make a porno.

SEGA is not going to be making a retro console, or any console.

They are — this is hard for people of my gen that were on the SEGA boat to accept — now a small developer. When ATARI is able to put more into hardware development than you are? You are practically an indie.

Seems like AtGames is gradually zeroing in on a plug ‘n play Genesis that isn’t terrible. Hopefully another year of added pressure from Nintendo’s own Classic Mini line will be motivation enough to produce a quality product. Or for Sega to simply make a better console in-house. Christ, just ditching the shovelware…

Well, if they bought ABC, I imagine HYDRA would be the heroes on the next season of Agents of SHIELD.

Here’s a scarier thought, how about conservative viewers/listeners actually go do research themselves rather than continue to be lazy (and drive up health care costs for everyone else) and listen to charlatans with a clear agenda (making money off you) tell you what to be angry about?

It’s almost like people who exhibit a predilection to facts and empathy for other human beings tend to be liberal...

What?? You want facts? Honest, non-opinionated news? You want to let the reader make his own judgements? Who do you think you are, Walter Cronkite? This isn’t the 1950's you know. This is the era where WE tell YOU what is news, what’s important and what to ignore. You will only consume what we want you to parrot…

I’m sure Breitbart is just chomping at the bit to make an offer and turn ABC into the second 24 hour all-white supremacist network. Fox News being the first of course.

You owe him your pay from this article.

Crimeny!

I think 8-4 has done some really good work too. While I was disappointed at the lack of Japanese voices in Xenoblade X, the translation and dub was actually pretty decent (despite some odd renaming choices).

I think they were going for archaic. Archeozoic Era Crevice or even just Archeozoic Crevice is far less “majestic”.

Falcom should have stayed with XSEED. this is what happens.

Man, I feel even worse for XSEED now than I did when NISA first announced they were handling the localization. It’d have been one thing if they knocked it out of the park, but to take over a series that they’d been working on for years, and put out something like THIS? Yeesh.

General assumption is whoever did the translation did a kanji-by-kanji literal translation instead of carefully reading through and figuring out what kanji groups mean, no consideration of context or conatation, nothin’. That would give you something like okiana (大穴) becoming ‘big hole’, the literal translation, as…

This is pretty exciting to see them commit to fixing it. JRPGs are a huge commitment to localize in the first place. It’s a shame it was shoddy, but major props to NIS for admitting it.
