He actually reminds me of Vulcanus from Disgaea, but that could just be because I just beat the game >.>;

I really thought there'd be more to it then that o.o;

Disgaea; Afternoon of Darkness. And after running into MB for the second time, I finally remember who excel_excel's avatar reminded me of.

I dressed up exactly once as a game character for halloween a couple years back, as Dr. Salvatore (RE4, chainsaw, burlap mask).

On a side note, it's ridiculously hard to find a sack like he had on his head in NY o.o

4 x 8 is...32. So, going by kinda...standard, ignorant (not having played it myself) math, that's going to be around $90 after tax for a 32 hour rpg ._.

Humor is cool and all, but I think I'd rather get Lost Oddessy. But then, I'm a cheap bastard.

I saw a Dom figure at Comic Con in NY, I think it might be on the way? I hope so. He's the only one I want, cause Dom's the freaking man.

Well, actually, I'd like this as one too >.> [attlantic.deviantart.com]

You're missing the main reason people are so excited about this. Most anyone who played it played it when they were younger. They have fond memories of it, because things were simple then. Go outside, play, eat, go to school, come home, and smack things into a wall in a squooshy mess.

Now, people have jobs. Jobs they hate. Maybe even GF's or BF's they hate. So when something from a much simpler, easier, more fun time suddenly comes back to them, it excites them, because they feel that certain something called nostalgia.

They remember how fun it was to flump down at their TG machines, and punch the snot out of stuff till they died, or if they had insane prodigy skill, beat the game.

That is why people are excited for the game, and that is why there will always be remakes. Is it partially, or even mainly due to lack of ideas? Very possible, but it doesn't make it any less fun if the game is made well. After all, moving around in 3d and regenerating limbs is pretty new to Splatterhouse.

So if you want, sit down with us, and punch some heads when it comes out. If not, well, that's your choice. Play something else.

Welp, I'm in.

Unfortunately, EGM is based one month in the future, and the GoW July issue is on the stands o.o

...Oh well, I got mine.

I think the manufacturer got the best one...

"Rock out with your lock out." Golden.

Are there aliens? I'd imagine that somewhere in the infinite space, yes...have they come here? Who knows. Honestly, I don't really care o.o;

As for the tech...I think it all kinda evolved from the concept of on/off switches in a general sense, didn't it? 1's and 0's and whatnot? I wouldn't think it would be terribly difficult for a very smart group of people to develop initially, and then it was just built upon, not unlike architecture and other things over the years.

If only, yes?

Hmm, on further reflection, I'd like to replace 'cynics' with 'aggressive realists' >.>;

But, who knows, maybe he was really, really hungry, and talking to his wife about stuff while eating, and just spaced?...really, really hard?

I thought it spot on and hilarious. Can't wait to see this one.

The stat system, the BMX (it's stupid, but I loved those bikes, heh), the parachute, the jet pack, the ability to buy property, the option to defend your turf, planes, and the big open areas in the mountains and whatnot there.

I've played around a bit on multiplayer, and done the first 'execution', so far. So, if any of that stuff suddenly appears after that, hooray, but it's not looking likely ._.

Go see it. I didn't follow Iron Man at all other then that he was a guy in a suit that shot lasers, and I liked it a lot.

More on topic; I feel for Chris, although it might have helped to just be forward in letting them know about the buisness before hand.

Although, some people are just self-righteous jerks, so who knows if it'd help ~_~;

Nice.

Well done, certainly, but I just don't like nice people becoming horrible zombies.

...I hope it's not as hard as the other games...I never got far in any of them ._.

Also, a random thought:
I just saw the Forbidden Kingdom, and liked it a lot. But, the trailers gave me absolutely no idea what the movie was about, at least accurately. 5 min in, I was in a very '...what?' state. Then, it got awesome.

It's a shame this doesn't work for games, cause then you could start out as Rick, walking around your house or something...then BAM TERROR MASK! and "HOLY CRAP! It's Splatterhouse o.o"

If done really, really well (like MGS2, but with something awesome instead of something like kicking the real character aside for some emo kid >.>;), that would be pretty sweet.

...huh. Well, that's just...nice ^_^;

Creative, and...nice >.>
