Too little too late.

The over-the-top nature of her character and all is fine as a parody. I think the original comment was more in line with the simple fact that she looks "off" in an uncanny valley sense - largely due to her being something on the order of 11 heads tall. Fashion illustration is normally 10, but even most comics tend to…

No it wasn't. It was relatively hard, but it wasn't crap.

The version they show is not the one used for Games for Windows Live. It's just a common design element.

I would look at a couple angles with it.

Well, as others are pointing out elsewhere in the comments - including playback capability means paying licensing fees on the technology.

Reggie stated in at least one interview that it's not multi-touch.

I've seen nothing to indicate that it's pressure sensitive. Screens that have both touch and pressure-sensitive pens use dual digitizers anyway, so a capacitive screen would still be possible.

If you consider the James Bond parallel - the recent Bond movies have been exactly that sort of turn for the character too. Casino Royale particularly. The resulting films were only better because of it.

It's probably just a cheap screen - that's kind of Nintendo's schtick when it comes to hardware - and cheap LCDs tend to have crappy viewing angles. The thing isn't even multi-touch.

I don't think remakes would serve to address the comments and concerns that some of the Japanese developers have expressed.

What you have aren't people bitching just because it's not the perfect system for them.

It's not just that.

The analog stick/d-pad on either a dual shock series or 360 or whatever aren't directly in line with each other. They're on an angle, so you can sweep your thumb over both pretty easily.

Specs are hard to say though - as people have said since Project Cafe was announced, more power than a 360 or PS3 should be an absolute given. Those systems are 5-6 years old at this point.

I'm already not super keen on the downloadable game model - call me old fashioned, but I still like having physical media. I do use Steam, mostly because of sale priced games (and because it's unavoidable for certain titles on PC now).

It's a prequel, so, probably not.

Demon's Souls is pretty much a WRPG, and it did pretty well for itself.

It's actually fairly representative of what cars look like under fluorescent lights in a showroom. IE [www.autoblog.com]

Welcome to the NHK (contemporary setting, but probably would appeal to you on other grounds)
