This is my dream vacation. I want to go to Japan, see the yearly smelting of the steel used for katana's, and travel from Tokyo, to the countryside in Satoyama.

That's fine, because more of that $10.00 goes to the developer than the $60.00 retail disc sale does. No shipping, no manufacturing, no retail middle man, and no large publisher sucking up a majority of what is left in your profits. Digital is a win win for everyone (except shitty middlemen and monstrous publishers,…

I believe it. Killing random, anonymous people usually throws a wrench into Police investigations. Their number one tool for catching murderers is finding the personal connection as most murders are crimes of passion against people the murderer is emotionally invested in. Random murders have not rhyme or reason, makes…

And yes, it does mean I can talk about it. My contract was with THQ. Not a third party.

It actually said in the NDA it only lasts for 6 months to 2 years (I honestly can't remember which, but both have passed so doesn't really make a difference). They cannot NDA you forever. And I did get to spend all of 5 min with evolve, but it was the PC version and my job was specialized with Sony products so I…

Again, in the build that I played, that wasn't possible. A lot can happen in a year and half of development.

Yes, but NDA's only last 6 months to 2 year, and it has been longer than that. Plus, THQ doesn't exist anymore, so no company, no NDA. ;)

Unfortunately, no. I read a kind of product requirement doc when I was first assigned to it, but that was a while ago. I think it said 30+, but I could be mistaken.

In the build I played, no there were no options to change ethnicity.

However, there were items you could equip to make your character look like a girl, which worked because everyone refers to your character as the gender neutral "New Kid".

Woah. That's a lot of questions. The story is interesting, though I have very little exposure to it in its entirety. Basically I got to play the first 30 min over and over again, as it was an early build riddled with crash bugs. The portion I played didn't have any significant story choices, but there were small…

When I played, again very early alpha, there was no option to change sex. It could have been just not implemented though.

If you have any specific questions, ask away. I can try to answer.

The way it is set up, graphically it is like playing an episode of South Park. The gameplay is very fun and encourages exploration and the South Park humor is evident during every second of gameplay. The "fighting" is turn based and surprisingly very fun and involved (this coming from a guy who cannot stand turned…

I can tell you from experience (former THQ alumni) that this game is FUCKING AWESOME! I play tested it while it was still alpha, and even then it was amazing. I am looking forward to this so much!

Did you read the EULA? It likely has a clause specifically addressing "cheating" and in agreeing to it you also agree to the punishments if you are found to be cheating.

That is actually how you figure out how much energy is in a unit of mass. Energy != Mass. Though they are intertwined.

So is this more in the vein of OG Mega Man or Mega Man X? Because Mega Man X > Mega Man (that is not to say the OG's aren't awesome, they are, but MMX is teh UBERMENSCH!)

This is effing amazing! I want this, and a gundam game using the OR... IMMEDIATELY!

Because Starfox was a game that could be completed in a half hour, but cost full price. However, the game was completely worth it as it had massive replayability and a meh multiplayer.
