So they have to fill the preliminary form? Guess that's a no on me marrying some famous dead actress.

Can we also marry posthumously?

As someone who has had a kidney stone I can honestly say that I feel for your mom, best of wishes so that she gets well soon. Also can you ask her if it's more painful than labor pains, it may help me settle a long time argument.

I actually catch them live on the Morning Buzz some time ago, I think it was right before the release of this album. For Wals and Gorth, it was an acoustic version of this song and I actually preferred it over this rendition. Although I will say that I still dislike the term "indie" as a music genre, specially when it's nothing more than the fusion of folk, bluegrass and some Celt influences served with a modern twist.

We already have a thread dedicated to music.

Are you closer to the sexy librarian look or the sexy accountant look? Neither. So somewhere in between? Cool

Why the quotes?

Actually I seem to recall a few JRPG's that scored a 9 on Game Informer, Radiata Stories being one of them which I bought in part because of the review and the subsequent ranking on the year's best protagonists. But then again I cancelled my subscription right about after they changed staff and I began suspecting that they were being payed off by the companies. Its speculation but I fairly can say that JRPGs are either ignored by reviewers because of competitive reasons or simply because that niche group is being underrepresented. The latter would also account for the low scores of other genres and the homogenization of games today.

Just chalk it all up to cultural differences, Japan has their feminine bishonen protagonists and we have our rugged space marines. They both sound pretty gay if you ask me.

Yet a lot of those make it because of petitions, or translation projects that gain attention. There is a niche market for JRPG games in the West so a lot of times a port becomes cost prohibitive.

Crysis was a sandbox generic mess, Crysis 2 was a linear arcade shooter....and not.

I think I would like to see a continuation of the X-men games by RavenSoft.Why? because I enjoyed them and every Anime,Comic,Manga already mentioned has crappy games already made about them. Specially Ghost in the Shell. -
Not really, getting good ideas it's easy. The problem comes when "idiaots" think their ideas translate solely on the basis of their conception and don't work on translating them into an actual finished piece.

Yeah, low standards towards a genre it's not helping the cause buddy. Specially when most of the people involved try to use art as an excuse but apparently not a goal.

You really think that people will pay to see Jacob? I think you got that backwards

Hurlie, don't you get it? Video Game relationships= Virtual Harem. No point in them having a life without being at your disposal 24/7

When you say Megaten game, do you mean that it's mechanics are similar to the Persona games or is it actually part of the series?

Yeah; maybe there was some expectation as to what DA2 should had been that caused some people to be biased, but that doesn't excuse the cluster of design flaws that plagues DA2.

Nobody should play The Last Remnant though. Spare yourselves the pain.

Interesting point, I would counter with the fact that for most of the game I felt like a figurehead rather than an active player. The silent protagonist routine doesn't really bode well with your notion that you are an important person, specially since most of the time Lucretia was the one coming up with the strategies everyone else agrees and your character just nods his head and the linear course follows its motions. Funny that you compare it to ME3 since most of the choices offered by both game mirror each other; they are basically variations of "Choice A: do what the game wants you to do" and "Choice B: Be an ass and do what the game wants you to do". The only major choice that alters the course of the story in Suikoden its whether you want to go into a campaing for yourself and it's destined for a cinematic detailing how badly you lost. Plus I seem to recall jumping through some hoops to get people to join me, like having to train a geriatric party member because a turtle wanted me to show him that I respected old people by putting them in harm's way. Or Oboro to whom I had to prove that I had a knack for detective work and without whom the whole foundation of gathering all allies was unsteady. So I really don't understand your reservations since both genres seem prone to the same tropes just with different approaches.
