I like this idea. If you wouldn't mind for some recommendations: Pokemon games are relatively long games, it would be cool If you write a report about this size for every landmark hour (5th,10th,25th, maybe even 50th.) and see how your opinion changes over the course of the game. I just got the game yesterday and am enjoying it a lot. I kind realize that I should take a break from pokemon after this though.
If they're sticking to the most recent naming pattern of WM websites, it will be a past-tense verb that doubles as an innuendo for making sure you don't have STDs. My conclusion says the book site will be called...
RPG elements is different from RPG. COD is a shooter with RPG elements. Borderlands is an RPG with Shooter elements (in terms of gameplay.) I think an RPG is also defined by how the game progresses, where you go from place to place, learn new things, and go to new places with new abilities (to put it very, very simply.) In that sense, Borderlands has shooter gameplay elements, but progresses very much like an RPG, making it so. Also, I didn't include leveling up in here, because there are ways to fill the quota I filled out without that. The character progression in Zelda is a good example. There are no games with levelling up in the series, except for one game in the series, yet the progression and travelling are definitely part of the gameplay experience. Of course genres are going to evolve, we just have to adapt with them. I think you also sometimes have to trust intuition. If you think it's an RPG, it's an RPG. Sometimes there are grey areas, as there are for most things. As to wether their dead, however: do JRPGs for the most part fall in to the nicheiest of niche? Yes. But are there exceptions? Yes. Pokemon is going to sell fucktons, and will for a long time. Wester stylized RPGs are progressing at a quicker rate. Taking inspirations from other genres is a good way to see what works and what doesn't
Do the numbers 3-9 exist to you? From what I can tell, you're only complaints with Inception and The Dark Knight were confusing chase scenes, which took up 10 minutes of 2 1/2 hour movies.
" 4) Haunted Graffiti by Ariel Pink - Loved the old school funk rock sound of this album "
He goes under Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti, the album is called Before Today. You should check out his, older, weirder, recorded on 4-track shit.
And @rudeboy217: had no idea Defiance, Ohio came out with a new album. i've really only heard The Fear, The Fear, The Fear, but I really dug it. Have you checked out Roar's EP I Can't Handle Change? It was released on Quote Unquote later last year. It would probably rank up in my best releases of the year. Also that BTMI! EP was damn good, and according to Jeff Rosenstock's twitter, the new album's gonna be their longest. Here's some of my favorite releases of last year: Plastic Beach - Gorillaz Cosmogramma - Flying Lotus Baths - Cerulean Deerhunter - Halcyon Digest Roar - I Can't Handle Change LCD Soundsystem - This Is Happening Sufjan Stevens - The Age of Adz Chemical Brothers - Further Whatever OFWGKTA shit came out has been good for the most part among a lot of others that were mentioned.
