Evil pencils do happen. They break always when you're doing the fine detail work. I can confirm this.

I think you made a good point. I think if all the drama with Ubisoft and Bioware hadn't been popping up around the same time, people would be less on edge about the idea of an all-male FF. Granted, I was one of those people that started to get my hackles up a bit, but their reasoning actually makes a lot of sense.…

Funny thing is as a Barbie collector I actually know lots of male collectors and doll artists. Some gay, a lot not gay. Noel Cruz is a doll artist who repaints dolls to look like realistic recreations of celebrities. People are too hung up on gendering stuff :/

I have a sudden need for this game.

No kidding. Soooo many good JRPGs coming out.

Well this makes me 30 levels of excited because I was seriously hoping this game would be ported. If Gust also announces that last Dusk Atelier game to be licensed I'll be doing backflips. Looks like the Gust games alone are finally what are getting me to get a PS3

I never really got what defined gender roles and what was defined as effeminate. The Scots wear what could be construed as skirts, but they also throw telephone poles for fun.

Thank you for the advice. That's actually extremely helpful :3

ANd those flicks weren't very accurate. I'd know I'd be flicking up, and at the right time, but I'd still sometimes get a 'bad' or 'miss' rating for the note, even in the easier modes.

*Pours a 40 on the curb*

I never understood how people ruined their disks so much. I've straight up dropped disks, or had them caught in the machine and not have them damaged, but a lot of the used PS2 games I get look like they were used as hockey pucks.

Don't dwell too much on it. Weird things give creators ideas. Just because something initially inspired a concept doesn't mean too much was drawn from it.

In a world where US bandwidth caps on already expensive internet is obviously here to stay, this makes total and complete sense, surely. I understand the desire to not be stuck by mainstream market stuff and the hand-tying there is. But this is still an insanely stupid statement.

I like that they chose a BAMF pose versus a sexy pose for Ryuko. She's BAMF-y all the time, but figure sculptors could have completely gone the sexy direction just in the interest of anime figure-ness. I'm glad they kept her character in mind. I too prefer the poseable kind, but this is definitely nice.

Nope. I've been studying Bayonetta character images for weeks due to my doll project. Her nipples aren't visible in any screenshots, or any of her concept art.

Wow, these are stupid cute. Gonna have a hard time resisting these come later this year when con season gets into full swing.

Yeah, not a big fan of Squall myself. Out of all the FF main characters, he definitely ranks lowest on my charts.

The same way you can tell if someone is being nice to you because they need to borrow money. Trust me, women can tell the difference.

There's a big, huge, giant difference between a guy being friends with someone and then it turns into a relationship, and guys pretending to be friendly *just* to get to a relationship. If you are nice to a girl simply to get in her pants, then you aren't actually being nice. And that's the difference between the Nice…

People can and are cruel. But society changes, and it changes because people point out bad things. When one person stands up for something they think is wrong/cruel/unfair then like minded people speak up too. Some people will always have the same attitude, but others will say 'hey, maybe this person has a point'. 200…
