I think this is the first time I’ve seen American fast food where the meat was one cut of identifiable meat.

Wow, if this particular player was phoning me at 3am to tell me how great his rattata was, I totally wouldn’t mind.

Maybe I am missing the point, but... is it a decent card game, aside from having Final Fantasy characters on it? Does it have any unique features? Does it involve a lot of mental arithmetic?

Akira and Planetes are two of the best manga I have ever read. Ever.

Wow, everyone looks so much older now than it feels they ought to in the time that has passed.

If you are blind and don’t know there is a dead body there, and you have never smelled a dead body before, how do you know this new smell is the smell of a dead body?

Ah, I never really liked Altered Beast. I used to play it back in the days when it was new, on arcade machines. If I were to set up an arcade myself, I would put an Altered Beast machine in there just because it is hugely symbolic. “WISE FROM YOUR GWAVE!” But the gameplay..... All you do is walk forward and hit…

Years ago, before the game was even made, I tried this game out at a convention and told the fellow demoing it pretty much exactly what you said.

Well, I found an English sub of the video which says the vocalist is Maki Chang (まきちゃんぐ):

I think the problem with Valve is that they’ve hired really excellent clever people who are good at.... all sorts of useful things like sensory perception in games, tactile feedback, VR, and cool stuff.

If they gave us the option to filter out one line reviews, that’d be a massive help.

The only reason chickens don’t normally eat each other is because they haven’t worked out how delicious they are. But when they get the taste...! No stopping them!!

Also Amazon made me put my complimentary $20 credit (because I preordered two copies) towards buying $1200 of worthless watches.

That is a good idea. Thanks! I’ll give it a go, if no-one at Amazon gets back to me in the time they said they would.

Nah, they’ve been rubbish. We’re at the final hurdle, but it’s been so frustrating.

You forgot to mention the bit where it was set up as a promotion on Amazon so they would only allow one watch per customer even if they ordered both Vita and 3DS copies of the game. And staff with no idea of the situation would do nothing but quote Terms And Conditions in an attempt to just make customers give up and…

Actually, I like the Wonka brand candy. Nerds and Runts and Everlasting Gobstoppers.

I’ve seen them in specialist American candy shops, so I went and bought one once. Rather unpleasant really; the sponge was sort of bendy and vaguely plastic-like, slightly stale but somehow oily, and the filling seemed to be that “marshmallow fluff” stuff that’s so sweet it burns your throat. Always interesting to try…

Huh, I posted that back in February, and... it’s resurfaced all of a sudden.
