All the art on that box is from the early-mid 2000's, so yeah, that's mad fake.

@auzurafi: As someone else who does dumb animations with these, a big thanks!

Can I just say while "The Drifter" isn't very interesting, I find Cory Graves frustratingly trying to figure out his deal to be hilarious? Like, it kind of makes it worth it. Confused about if he's a real drifter. Citing sources about a mysterious man constantly playing. "Why is he shushing? We're in a wrestling arena!"

My biggest grievance is the real lack of personality. Both in writing and design, both the world and the characters in it feel really bland. Compared to MM and WW before it, which were full of interesting, memorable characters and situations, TP just feels like "fantasy world, also there are bad guys".

Beyond Midna and like, the Yettis, there isn't much going on. They don't even quite use what they do have. Remember how there was a band of adventurers you meet in that game, and they barely do anything of note? Compared to WW, where you get to spend so much time with other characters like Medli and Makar, who you get to team up for entire dungeons with. I just have a hard time REMEMBERING anything in TP. Nothing pops.

Also, there are mandatory fishing missions, which I consider unforgivable.

I was playing Fire Emblem while watching NXT last night, so when Nia hits 3 legs drops and then Eva comes in just to get the pin I thought "Oh yeah, let her get the kill to try and get her levelled up."

Am I the only one that thinks the Shane story could be an awesome retirement match scenario for Taker?

- Taker confronts Shane and is like "Hey, I agree with you. Your dad needs to go. And the streak is already broken, so maybe you do have a chance of winning. WINK WINK."

- At which point Vince basically tells Taker that if he looses, he's fired. Now it's the biggest stakes possible. The future of WWE vs Taker's career.

- Then you've got a conflicted Shane, who doesn't WANT to retire Taker, but HAS to for the sake of the company. To save WWE he has to rip out it's heart. And what a better way for Taker, the ultimate company man, to go out than sacrificing himself for the good of the company. UNDERTAKER MUST DIE SO WRESTLING MAY LIVE.

So, I'm still conflicted about this. I'm super in the mood to play a new Fire Emblem, but the format of this whole thing really irritates me. Knowing that the games are 90% different at least alleviates me fear it was a huge ripoff, but the idea of having to choose a story path AT PURCHASE still annoys the hell out of me. I'm not a guy that replays games, even if they are 90% different, so I'm locked in once I buy one. It's stressful!

If EA released Mass Effect: Andromeda as two separate "Paragon" and "Renegade" discs, people would loose their damn minds.

I've been really liking this game. It has way more actual gameplay than a lot of the time waster type stuff in the space. This one actually feels like a capital G "Game", with some real progression and fun little RPG combat.

The value you'd get out of putting real money in seems pretty broken, but that's normal. I've gathered a nice little collection of characters from just playing normally.

Which Dan? Aykroyd? Hard to say really.

The Play-Asia part specifically was that they tweeted out some stuff condemning the "SJWs" against this game, and mentioned that they CONVENIENTLY sell imports of the title. Which is one of the more obvious cases of using controversy to make money.
