Yeah, look up ACTA.

So in this mode you have to fight Lavos?

I hope Wesker's Samurai Edge low gun shot still OTG's.

Well, I'm afraid to tell you but Radiohead probably will never do a crusty underground hardcore type show, neither will other big artists like Nas or whoever. If they did, you probably wouldn't know about it until it was way too late.

I went to Coachelle four years in a row, after the last time I vowed to never go again. First, it's too much indie alternative bullshit. Also, it's too hot in the so cal desert to be crawling around with 100,000 other people in the dirt for three days. Screw Coachella.

What else would you want there? Coachella usually has the best line-up of almost any festival in the world.

At the end of the day, we all know pie is better than cake.

@Branthog: There's a game about Asperger's?

It's that something Moon something game. It's actually based around a sort of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind science-fiction plot, but the big deal that every "game journalist" makes about it is "and the girl in it clearly has some sort of aspergers" (because aspergers has been the new self-diagnosed geek-chic of the last five years, of course) and that it's ostensibly really about relational disorder (a phrase I'd never heard of before, but after googling, appears to basically mean "you have problems in relationships" because there's a diagnosis in the DSM for everyone!).

The problem with criticizing such a game, topic, or anyone reviewing it is that it's so easy to counter absolutely any dissent with "you're a narrow minded hateful durp durp" than consider whether certain elements of a game (just like in movies, books, etc) are just trivial attempts at "depth" (like I mentioned, if the game was made fifteen years ago, it would have an identification with some other condition that was popular at the time).

Maybe I'm too critical and jaded, but the majority of things in gaming that try to be deep, topic, emotional, etc just come across to me as a sophomoric attempt to force those things (and then those on the receiving end heap them with praise, because they want to be seen as having the same qualities that the game aspires to).

Other than those aspects of it, the most basic premise is actually kind of cool. I'm not sure how familiar you are with the game, so I don't want to risk ruining it for anyone.

I mean some indie games are not artsy in any way, whether it be through graphics or mechanics, and some commerical ones can be artsy graphically or mechanically in some way. Either way, usually you can enjoy the game itself without looking at what it is trying to do on a deeper level, but if you do do it on a deeper level there can be a lot more to appreciate and possibly even relate to, i.e. Braid. Also, I have never seen ESotSM, but boy do I love the music!

If they did make Shenmue 3, it would have to much more than just Shenmue 2 with modern graphics, it would have to have a lot more open and detailed world, much better combat, etc. As well as all the other things that would go along with modern games.

Mother 3, Xenoblade, Dark Souls, Chrono Trigger, Secret of Mana 2/Seiken Densetsu 3, Paper Mario 2, and Persona 4. I liked Tales of Vesperia a bit as well, but it could have been better. Versus 13 may be amazing.
