You sir are talking complete and utter shit. RPGs revolve around the story and a good exploration system, where as games like Sonic and Mario have no story at all. Yet are some of the greatest games ever.. So no, games arn't about story (only the latest generation of gamers would think such crap). Games are about 1 thing, a very simple thing which I shall point out on it's own line so you can clearly see it.
You have no idea about the Japanese games market and how many "TV tie-ins" are extremely good games there.. I suggest you slap yourself till you understand that US tie ins doesn't equal Japanese tie ins
Apple switching to Windows would kill them. The only thing Apple ever had going for them (except style), is OSX is a damn good OS. By giving it up they'll die a quick death as they get absorbed into MS in the PC market.
yea.. except viewtiful Joe is based on these Sentai shows and they have oh.. a 30 year history and release a game for the latest at least twice a year. But yea you're quite right, lets pick a new shiny series over one with a huge long standing fanbase.
You forget the difference between the Wester world and Japan. Japan is far more "all for one and one for all" in nature, where as the Western world is more "Screw everyone but me". So people see that painting crap on a wall just ruins that wall for them and everyone else. Where as some spoilt little brat might think it's "cool" and ignore this.
Plus you'll notice the Japanese games market is VERY different. Quirky puzzle games and RPGs do very well, things based on anime (and similar things) also do quite well. But super violent games with no point but to kill people are more cult than super popular. GTA in Japan is about on par with Occult books, they're about and not frowned upon, but mostly it's a younger male market who have an intrest rather than the mainstream market. Here on the other hand RPGs and puzzle games are cult, where as GTA and violent sports games are popular.. Quite intresting to look into it all really.
Try the original on the dreamcast... Maybe you should point out it was the first cell shading game and had one of the best sound tracks of any game ever made.
To graffiti you had to do simple chains on the joystick and to finish a level you'd have to graffiti over another gangs or all the propaganda by the cops/secret organisations etc. It was fun and didn't encourage me to go spray paint walls, just gave me a lot of cool songs to hum to myself and a newart style to play with.
It's a game that hasn't aged a day since it came out.. yet you credit the sequal on the Xbox because..?
Whats wrong with some good old fashioned posing? Would make for some intresting games if special moves were pulled off by posing. A lot of super sentai (Power rangers original name in Japan) type things use this sort of thing for transforming or pulling off a finishing move. Why not make it so you do so in real life?
If they included a mic in the revolution you could easily pull off a decent Kamen rider game (where you'd pose and shout henshin to transform) or use it to call on various armourments and allies.
While power rangers is called childish in the western world, in Japan it is huge and been going on for 30-40 years. Which means a lot of adults love the series and would kill to be able to do the things the various riders/rangers do.
We pay the TV licence so fund the BBC, if they wish to develope beyond that they should raise their own funds and not charge us for it. If I buy 1 PC, 2 PCs or 10 PCs, I may never use them to watch BBC content and as such I'm paying for fresh air in effect.
If they want to licence web content why not just make a yearly subscription service and charge for it? £50 a year for BBC programs online for up to 1 week of airing and then random "classic" shows such as Only fools and Porridge. The classic shows would sell it to a lot of people and if they make it downloadable in some way which means it's portables I can't think of a single person who wouldn't DL such content for long trips and when they're out of the country (no more need to miss Eastenders or your poison of voice).
The BBC has been quite good to the online community, if they start taxing "innocent people" (AKA people who don't watch online content from the BBC), then they are more or less just a thief with government permission.
The Japanese fixation on robots runs deep and many mecha series (like the Yuusha (Brave) series) are all based on transformable mecha. If you think of how useful it could be in some situations it does make sense though.
Lets say you're in a destroyed city area. Trying to get around on wheels would be difficult in some situations (large walls and such), transforming you could climb over them.
They could also develope this into a plane, so when it lands it could transform and dock in a hanger instead of holding run way space. Or give it a large gun and have a military vechile.
Lots of uses for transformable mecha, just got to look at how ineffective our little boxs on wheels are.
Heres a hint : If you want to by pass laws and help people, don't scream and shout abut it. The more news you make the easier it is to get heard..
So nice try, but next time keep it under hat and print off copies of sites and nail them to walls. You'll be harder to catch and spreading the news beyond the few in your group.
Want to look at the current political systems in the UK and USA? Two-three parties all acting completely fake and ignoring everyone (and thing they said) the second it doesn't suit them.
You have no real choice, you have to pick one of three/two and you're stuck with it, like it or not.
The number one reason why millions of innocent people have died and continue to die in lands without freedom, and the number one reason why Liberal thought is inherently dangerous.
And you my friend are clearly brainwashed by the cold war bullshit thrown around. Liberal mentality is perfectly fine if all agree with it, just as every other idealism is. There is no perfect system and no matter how we try we'll never get one which has no flaws (Like you seem to be claiming your magic democracy is).
No system is "dangerous" if all the people in it wish to have it that way. After all your little "democrating system", forces you into work daily to survive unless you're uber rich or wish to live on next to nothing/the street. This is just as bad as any system you want to look at.
Standing up for your rights and freedom isn't something anyone in the West should be talking about right now. We went and invaded two countries, trashed their governments because "they were evil" and now we have control of them giving the population no rights what so ever, not even to basic food and water supplies. Yet this is all fine because "they were evil", yet when people try and do the same to us we whine like children that someone you know.. SHOT AT US.
I doubt I'll ever play it TBH.. but up to you of you spoil.
If you like scary stuff try vampire : the masquerade.. all I'm saying is theres a mansion and a hospital.. I've never quit a game through fear untill I got to that mansion.. >.
Because evidence seems to show whatever is happening is being increased by humans, so if it's going to kill us all off (super heat the planet or turn nature extremely hostile), we need to fix it now before we're living as mole men.
Even if we're not bringing about any harm to the Earth, it's still in everyone sbest intrest to find a cleaner resource for our power before it runs out (and we can only dig so far before we hit magma and have no more oil or ores), so we need to start looking for a solution. Not to mention we as humans need air to live, if we polute the air we could in the long run endanger ourselvs (we're cutting down trees at an insane rate, which doesn't exactly help this issue).
So even if we're "okay now", we may not be tomorrow.
This is very true. Guys might be able to damage the body, but girls damage the mind. They also tend to have a natural pack nature where they'll viciously attack anyone seen as remotely different.. and who hasn't heard the old saying "Hell has no fury like a woman scorned". Never a truer word has been said.
So in other words wanting to get laid makes you get rejected earlier.. and makes you do all the things everyone does when they hit puberty..
I know people who act like children even in their 30s and 10 year olds who act like adults. Puberty early wouldn't do anything to the later type, the first type on the other hand still act like children after hitting it.. so no, early puberty doesn't "damage you", being too immature to handle it damages you.
So if this detects WMDs how does it detect say bombs as well as dangerous substances before they have already spread? I mean "theres a virus in the air!" does little to stop people already infected and spreading it (who you can't singleout asthey swarmaway), let alonegoing "theres a bomb!", because the second these people are approached (lets say extreme Islamic people for sake of argument), they're going to blow themselvs up and any near them.. So isn't it a bit silly to go "oh we KNEW he had a bomb.. we just couldn't do anything".
It's like hiring a guy in a wheelchair to be a security guard. He might see everything but he can't exactly do much untill it's too late.
This is no different than if that manufacturer took your GPLed code and burned into a ROM or blew it onto an FPGA and then soldered it into the router. Just because you wrote it doesn't mean the manufacturer has to give you provisions to alter it on their machine.
I bought it, I paid for it with my own money so I own it. If I wish to rip it apart or change what the function is, then it's MY choice and I'll be damned if a company will tell me other wise. It's like saying Intel must pick what OS I use and anything else is against the rules.
I perfer the mouse myself but honestly I think RE4 suits the cube more. Once you get used to the twitchiness you can snipe people with in the blink of an eye. You learn exactly where to shoot and where, but the first 30 minutes I was sucking majorly.. just didn't work for me.
Go back and give it a try.. you may even find it easier with everything in 1 place instead of having to do everything but aim with 1 hand.
Slashdot Mirror
For starters, it's SET. Jet, set, radio.
First was better.
In a game where it's nearly impossible to die time limits make sense..
Not owning a console shouldn't make you ignorant to it.
If he's never heard of the original he needs slapping.
Games have always been about story
You sir are talking complete and utter shit. RPGs revolve around the story and a good exploration system, where as games like Sonic and Mario have no story at all.

HAVING FUN.

I played FF7, but Cloud bored me, so I got nothing out of it ( I perfer Yuffie).
It's incredible? News to me... infact heres the plot.
:/
Cloud turns up
Everyone turns up
Cloud owns everything
Sephiroth turns up
Cloud owns him
If it wasn't FF7 it would of been ignored for everything but the CGI..
Because it's not raining as much as usual?
People will always complain, if it's £2 and they want to pay £1.99, they'll complain. It's what we do here.. O.o

It's a prototype to see if they could get it to work, it works. They can build off it no?
