    Vic Mignogna... I know the name. Full Metal Alchemist is such a great show....



    Maybe they're releasing the FMA "borthers" song that he sang in english???


    Maybe they're releasing the 4th startup song, "Rewrite" by Asian Kung Foo generation???



    I can't stand these games... but I may just have to get it.

    There needs to be a "Real Life" option. Will you be like Mick Jagger, drinking and partying and unkillible by anything below a low yeild Nuke, or will you be like Keith Moon, absolutely Fucking Awsome but fated to die young and Ironically? Stay Sober, get more money from a better performance. Get Drunk and/or High on the narcotic of your choice, get more fans and popularity but less money and the random chance of missing a show while your passed out in a puddle of your own vomit. Or Dead.

    @Acebuckeye13:

    See this game developers?


    This is what we call a GOOD idea.


    We know you're not used to seeing them as they're very rare in this industry, but, contrary to popular belief, we actually do like them.

    Rock Band 3 wouldn't make sense right now. The only thing to that could add to the perfection of Rock Band 2 is more songs, and those can come from DLC.

    Why not just make it DLC though if this really is not the Beatles Game?

    The fact that Cortanna and Princess Peach are the same person totally blows my mind.

    Damn it Nintendo put more voice acting in your games!!!

    Voice actors are so damn under appreciated in media, not just games, but media in general.


    That gruff bass or subtle baritone in someone's voice can add an entirely new dimension to the enjoyment of something. Be it narration, characterization or anything really. Bad voice acting can make or break an experience for someone, whereas good voice acting can transcend the experience to something more.


    Especially when it comes to animation and video games, Voice actors bring life into the characters we come to love and despise. All you need to hear is one word or phrase from them and a flood of memories can come flooding to your mind.


    I, for one, love the work they do and appreciate the hell out of it.

    Being a movie and tv geek, I love this stuff. Always fun trying to figure out who's voice that is. My all time favorite movie to game actor... Michael Ironside (Total Recall baddie).
