@wmoyer83: I think it's cool but the dynamic will be different because the characters have history to go with their ethnicity.

Magneto having been a Jewish child in Auschwitz has weight to it and purpose.

Xavier (particularly from Giant Size X-Men #1 on with the multi ethnic team) being a white man helping people of all backgrounds/races had weight to it particularly for the time it was created. Like, this was before the "white savior complex" was a thing you could label on everything to fit a narrative.

It's fine to change it because I don't think current readers really give a shit about any of that anyway, realistically. Sure, it was supposed to have influences from MLK & Malcom X, but seriously, no one cares, it's only brought up to make a point anyway as the books are so far from having anything resembling teachable moments like back in the 60's-70's.

I think it's only obscure because the SNES game got more shine but the ENTIRE ost to Adventures of Batman & Robin on Genesis is highkey godlike. Early Jesper Kyd stuff and this is really an example of what the system could do in the hands of someone really talented. nothing like the screeches and grating sounds the system came to be synonymous with. Seriously, if you haven't heard it already give the rest of the game's music a listen, it's real gud.

Atm I'm slowly going through Sekiro, which for the most part has clicked for me and I'm having a great time. Also, DMC5's Bloody palace is so much fun because the core gameplay is just about the best its ever been, highest I've hit is lv 78, good stuff.

Lastly, and most importantly, I'm playing through Phantasy Star Universe: Ambition of the Illuminus on PS2. It sucks because the expansion made the game infinitely more fun to play by adding the timed criticals, weapon types, class types, an the music is generally pretty good, but it's not available on 360 or PC (legally). I know PSU wasn't the PSO second coming that everyone had hoped for but Illuminus and The Portable 1&2 games were definitely more fun to play from that series. The pacing is faster, more drops, more exp, and there's more than enough of a challenge in difficulty if you want it.

No voice acting is the only thing (maybe not really) I'd say is missing, but that said, the story isn't groundbreaking anyway. That and performance issues on the PS2 are a thing, slowdown and waiting for weapons to load hurt the experience but since I don't know how to get it on 360 or PC it's all I have.

@patchryan: @patchryan:Nier is nothing like Bayo, it's less of a character action game and more of an action rpg with Platinum flair.

I just hope it feels good in my hands. The New 3DS I have hurts my hands after about an hour or so. The PSP same thing, especially because I used to play Monster Hunter games on it and it just isn't comfortable. I liked the Wii U for MH and the way you held it made it not a chore to play for long stretches. That said, I never owned a Vita and don't know how it contours to my hands, maybe one day, but there's really no reason as it's all but dead to me software wise and like many have said, cross play is sorely underutilized.

@49th: http://comicvine.gamespot.com/spider-man/4005-1443/

Even if you ignore his ACTUAL power set and think he sucks still, people like him because of his personality. Loveable, relatable(somewhat if you don't count the powers) dork that becomes a wise cracking hero who clowns his villians when he puts on the costume. Which, truthfully, hasn't been captured as good on screen till Civil War (I though Toby was ugh and Garfield was fun to watch pretty much only in costume)
