Um, incidentally you should all buy Odin Sphere. Like, right now. Maybe yesterday. It's literally beautiful. I'm going to post thoughts on it in a thread sometime but it's definitely worth picking up.
Odin Sphere is sitting on my bed unopened right now. I'll be playing it later tonight. Can't wait.

It's "Trot Vehicle" in the Japanese version. So.
I am so sorry. Really, I am.
I actually found it weird that Atlus thrusts the fact that the game's real name is Bumpy Trot down your throat a couple of times. I get the feeling that people in marketing forced the Bumpy Trot title on translators and that the translators felt a little rebellious about it. Or something.

It's out here, but judging by the back cover of the game one would think you were its target audience:
Odin Sphere's back cover wrote:More than a mere localization, Odin Sphere offers players their choice of fully voiced dialogue: English or the original Japanese version. Lose yourself in this intricately spun tale worthy of a place in the canon of classic literature
I love the way that last sentence sounds sort of like the ads you see for classical music compilations on late night non-Adult Swim Cartoon Network or something that have no real business being there. Oh, and for the record I just planted and grew (using the souls of my slain enemies) a Sheep Tree. Yes, it's exactly what it sounds like.
I love this game. ^_^
Also, props to Senbei on the Zato-ino avatar. Nice to see another Usagi fan.
The best games ever made are Sonic 3 and Knuckles, Yoshi's Island, Panzer Dragoon Saga, Shenmue, Half-Life 2 and Ico. And you all agree with me, too, because if you didn't you'd be banned.
Edit: I'm still stunned. I didn't think anyone here would actually like that thing, but I guess that was naive of me; the virus was bound to reach us sooner or later. So, like, are you a night-dwarf or a wood-witch or what? You got your fuckin' epic robes and shit, yeah? Why don't you order some fuckin' elf pizza. 'Cause that's, like, what WoW players eat, because they can't cook and they never leave their basements. They just order take-outs. From elves.
