Without question ME2 is an improvement over the first game. I could never go back and play the first game. Just because the first game gives you the illusion of freedom, doesn't mean it actually counted for anything. The Mako roving was so utterly pointless as you go from place to place in buildings and structures with same environments over and over again.

The gameplay of ME2 was far better than the first game. In the first ME, where's the challenge in just being able to hang back and fire away with a sniper rifle with no need to reload ammo? Every ME game has some legit gripe.

I'm not sure I really get where the OP is coming from, but to each their own.

The perception that Android users are cheap and don't spend money on games, and therefore don't make a game for Android your priority because it's not going to make as much money as iOS on launch.

Who's been saying that? And how is it not getting any good games? Rockstar has ported two GTA games and even Max Payne onto Android. Square Enix has put out three original games for the platform as well. Seems a bit odd to put that kind of effort in for something that isn't going to make a lot of money.

Sounds like the old MOGA controller, I'm using it now and it works great. The battery life is unexpectedly good. To get the functionality that I wanted from it (to be used with any emulator), there's a third party driver that has to be downloaded from Google Play. I don't recall if it requires root or not, but with it installed, I'm able to use MOGA with nearly any emulator.

Though for some reason I'm unable to get it working on Retroarch. Not that it's much of an issue since I don't have much use for the Retroarch app.

The WiiU demographic wouldn't play games like that anyway. The WiiU may be an unmitigated disaster, but I'm not sure that this is devastating news tbqh.

No, MGS4 being a PS3 exclusive already killed Metal Gear for me. The series ended with MGS3.

Sorry, I just don't have the skills of a pop culture critic to measure up to the intellectual juggernaut that is Anita Sarkeesian. This is the stuff that Kickstarter funds? Really? I thought the point was to fund "creative projects," not some dime-a-dozen internet pundit with an intellectually bankrupt premise.

An essy way to deal with the P3P/FES question is this

Do you as a player care more about story or gameplay

Story: Play FES

Gameplay: Play P3P

lol wut?

The cut scenes couldn't possibly have been that big of a deal. And "The Answer" was so improbably idiotic, that I felt embarrassed that I watched that ending, it really was that awful. After trying out some of FES, I could never play that version over P3P, no way. There's no "question" here, P3P has both storytelling and the gameplay and pulls off both with flying colors.

There's no comparison, not anymore. The mere mention of Final Fantasy these days should be enough to elicit snickering. The origins were great, but the legacy of Final Fantasy is that of games with bloated budgets, pretty graphics, a serviceable plot, and boring gameplay. I'm not sure why Vagrant Story is on that list, but it sure isn't helping. That was one of the worst and most pointless games I've ever played.
