@Kitsune Sniper: Translation: larger numbers make one stupid behavior better than another! #madden
@traumafox: Well, I imagine it might have something to do with seeing how respectfully Harmonix treated both John Lennon and George Harrison in the Beatles game. That and the fact that Rock Band Beatles actually put obvious time in effort into creating a game space meant to communicate more than just the music, but…
@bobtheduck: There is a character creation element involved, meaning that some of the characters we see in these videos may be very deliberate homages to the characters that inspired the game's feel.
Everyone knows that nipples are dangerous when women have them because fully developed mammary organs allow the areolas to rise up and spin like buzzsaws, which only happens when the nipple is not depressed by clothing.
Conceptually, I have no problem with the route they've taken. Dante was, at times, strikingly detailed in his description of torments, and at others far more focused on the tormented. The circle of Lust's only real punishment that I can recall was that the souls of the damned were incessantly buffeted and blown…
@WizarDru: You base all of this, of course, on a leaked bit of information. Condemning Sony for actions it hasn't yet made seems silly to me. Yes, that particular course of action would, I think, be unfair to PS3 owners, but you're being equally as unfair by assuming what Sony is doing.
@Toshiya: It's a radiation hazard symbol centered around the right joystick. I will not make the obvious comment about radioactivity. Too easy.
Maybe if I didn't get ten emails a week from Nigerian scammers, this ad wouldn't be so funny. I think the country should be less worried about the commercial, and more about the fact that their people ACTUALLY SCAM OTHERS ON A REGULAR BASIS.
Is this happening because someone else wants to make a football game?
@zanzibarlegend: You all forgot the part where Gabriel replaces his hand with Dracula's, convinces himself that he is Dracula, and then pilots a giant, walking tank through the streets of Romania while yelling for his 'brother.'
@ThursdayNext: I think you and I have basically said the same thing in two different manners. Yorda's presence in Ico is unavoidable, but that presence is an integral part of the gameplay, and is in fact a major focus. You guide and defend her in many different ways in order to attain victory.
It seems that Molyneux's biggest failing is that he focuses far too much on the mechanic and not nearly enough on the execution. I know there are plenty of people who liked the dog in Fable 2, but I know an equal number if not more who found it to be an entirely unnecessary element. The intention of the dog was to…
I... can't even begin to understand why this is being done. The game itself is weak enough as a whole, but breaking it up into chunks? All the people who were pscyhed about the game at the get go already bought the game, and if the episodes aren't competitively priced against a retail copy, there's really no sense…
@MadMinstrel: Have you lived in a world devoid of DLC for the last couple of years? This is astoundingly typical. Preorder bonuses come with something special for free that is eventually released later at a price. Why this is marketed the way it is I can't say, but if nothing else, it is strikingly more honest…
@LordThayer: That's the way it always goes, man. Bottom line is, the industry is going to continue exist as it does regardless of internet complaints. The voices that speak loudest on the internet are not nearly as large a chunk of sales as they'd like to believe. Anyone too young to drive themselves somewhere is…
@sigma7: He's also got 7 days to decide if he likes the game or not, at which point he can return the game for a full refund. It equates to a free rental of what can in many cases be a nearly new game if the store he shops at is worth its salt.
This might be relevant if I had been in a Best Buy in the past two years that had a decent video game section. So far, the backlog of games is paltry at best, and all the sections are either disorganized or poorly stocked.
@Shawnrw222: Yeah, according to VG Chartz its grand sales are at 1.76 million, with that total being nearly a dead split between North America and everywhere that's not Japan. They haven't even sold 100 thousand copies in Japan.
@N●Gage Croal: Oh, I agree completely. I guess with BioWare having been in the industry for over ten years, I assume that they have developed the understanding of that concept. I find it hard to believe that a company could be successful in such a demanding landscape for so long and NOT realize it, even if they…
