SLASHING THROUGH ME EVERY INCH OF THE POWER THE POWER IN YOU They are doing this on purpose. I'd like to think this is all an elaborate parody. And it's rarely that a camera is done exactly to the way that everyone likes it. I remember a huge debate on this forum about the perfect 3D camera, and I ...

I like the art, but I'm not really enthusiastic about having a bunch of motion sensor gimmicks, which I know there will be.

I watched it three times for the hilariously lame, nigh unintelligible theme song. WHOOOOOOAH OHH OHH WHOAHH OHH OHH WHOAHH OHH OHHHHHH IN A BID TO RULE BY THE SWORD SLASHING THROUGH ME EVERY INCH OF THE POWER THE POWER IN YOU UNDERSTAND (?) UNDERSTAND (?) I BECAME LIKE A MYTH MY KINGDOM I WILL NOOO...

Oh well. I like what I like and I have the discretion to pick out games that I will enjoy. Incidentally, I'll probably pick up this collection (is it already out? I thought I saw a game collection with Sonic on the cover at Best Buy) and enjoy it. It's a pretty good deal, and it is what it is.

But by God, Portal certainly comes close.

I think, from a gameplay standpoint, SA2 is the threshold for the speed at which a Sonic game should move. All other bitching about that game aside, it tested reflexes, almost to a prescient degree for A-rankings, so it becomes a matter of muscle memory versus some subconscious decision-making abili...

Planescape: Torment.

Your move, Isuka.

Waiting makes you bitter.

Good thing nobody here got bitter before I told them how to live their lives.

In terms of story? Well, at its core, it's a fighting game, so... no.

OT is much better, in my opinion. I think action games should be ridiculously fast paced, and OT manages to do that without sacrificing complexity.

And here's a Kotaku link: http://kotaku.com/5159889/virtual-on-fo ... 360-its-on

That is not terrible at all, and I am now quite excited. Granted, it'd be better if I could somehow use the twin sticks, but alas, it is not to be.

Majestic Joey wrote:speaking of giant robots, virtual on is coming to xbla.

Which one? Operation Moongate, Oratorio Tangram, Force, or Marz?

This, of course, will determine my level of enthusiasm.

And yes, I know Force is unlikely.

Cuckooguy, I really, really like it. Some of the characters are at odd angles given the perspective, but it's never enough to ruin the overall warm, fuzzy feelings it gives me.

I actually like Tails' design in SA. I think the death of his personality in subsequent games harmed the character, as did the removal of, you know, his ability to move freely.

Sonic and the Journey from the Center of the Earth to the Moon in Eighty Days... Machine

It'll be fantastic.

Hi. My name is Wombatwarlord777, though you can call me "Batwar" for short. That will not happen. I can draw cartoons decently well, but all my Sonic the Hedgehog doodles end up looking like insects with a pair of legs cruelly plucked away. As for defining personality flaws... Lessee... I tend to e...

Instead, I think Amy would be more interesting if she were more tom-boyish, atheletic and egdy, Yeah, that stereotype is WAY more interesting than that other stereotype. Archetypes aren't always bad if they're done well. I'm fond of Amy's stalker-with-a-crush schtick, but it can easily get grating....

Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if there's an 'original' character in there with a steampunk engine-sword that lets him boost around and keep pace with Sonic.

Hee.

On a more related note, it's almost cruel that they're flaunting the information in front of us. Almost a, "No, we didn't forget, we just hate you" sort of deal.

The gameplay looks clunky from these videos. I'm not really surprised or anything, but it might have helped if it, you know, looked like it controlled well.

There's nothing wrong with "liking what you like" -- hell, I loved the Incredibles -- but it's not like there isn't room for improvement. Pixar is a great studio, miles ahead of their contemporaries... but they're not exactly producing animated masterpieces. Sometimes I think people have a predispo...

Christ. Who the fuck would recommend you to a message board about a fallen video game mascot?

Look for anyone who's friendly to him and act hostile towards him.

I like what I like, and if that makes me a simpleton, well, I never claimed to be an artist.

That's what the good ones are supposed to do: entertain and frustrate.

Forums may come and go, but nostalgia filters and e-navel gazing are forever.

Ah, negativity is like the melted jolly rancher of the internet, holding people together in a sticky, unpleasant manner, often against their will.
