I was going to buy it new, now I may wait and buy it used.
Of course I want to meet those dads, and you do too. How can I can kick their ass if I don't meet them? Now if you show me how to do that, then I can do without meeting them.
Lara Croft
Chloe from Uncharted.
I would say Eleana Fisher, but so much of Eleana's appeal as a character is from from her behavior instead of just raw, sexpot looks or oversexualized behavior.
I agree with your premise that Western video games just don't give as much fanservice as Japanese video games do.
@3rd Dimension
It sold poorly because Platnium set it up to fail. The hack-n-slash fans are on PS3. Bayonetta was broken on PS3. Fanboyism will also sell a game. But Bayonetta was multi-plat, and leagues better on the platform with fewer fans.
Xbox fans don't care about hack-n-slash, and why would Sony pay someone to make Bayonetta 2 when that same money could pay someone to make Heavenly Sword 2. The only place left to go was to Nintendo. Man talk ...
@StanSmith
Nobody cried when they were forced to buy a PS3 in order to play MGS4??????
Where have you been, there was much weeping and gnashing of teeth over MGS4 being exclusive. There was a "MGS4 to 360" rumor every month for 3 straight years. They cried to high heavens. Kojima-sama just did not hear their pleas.

I have to join in and say that I too download trailers. The great ones don't ever get deleted.
I still remember the feeling from watching the FFXIII trailer.
I wish that they would make a KOTOR 3. As Zha1tan said, LucasArts is not in the business of listening to fans.
The honest truth is the LucasArts has lots of things that would produce billions of dollars worth of revenue, if only they would produce it. In 1 minute I can think of...
1. Another KOTOR
2. The sequel to Republican Commando
3. Battlefield 3
4. The next Jedi Knight/Jedi Academy Game
5. A movie series based on o...
I don't know. There is a moment in GOW2 that I think tops it. I can't remember the bosses name, but you fight him on of the Steeds of Olympus. Just before you get the ball lightning from Chronos.
After the fight, Kratos knocks the guy off the building such that his body is outside a set of doors and his head is in-between them. The games has you keep mashing "circle" and Kratos repeatedly kicks the doors closed on dude's head and neck.

I want to say that Mike Cosgrove's post should not be covered up as spam. It was not spam. His point was spot-on, and should be made visible at once.
I would add my own point that it is the site itself that is trolling for hits.
Mike said it perfectly,
I co-sign.
Mike Cosgrove said it perfectly. I just feel compelled to add my voice and co-sign.
In fact, why waste time typing when I can just cut and paste what was already said perfectly...

Onlive didn't sound like something that could work.
I think actors and actresses define "demeaning things" as things that they don't get paid enough to do.
Ninja Gaiden 3 would be the biggest disappointment of 2012.
However, I did not like the way SCV abandoned all of the characters.
Why did Star Wars: The Old Republic fail?....Because there is no "Knights of" in it.
These companies refuse to give us the game we want and then wonder why they perform below expectations. When in truth your expectations were too high. People want what they tell you they want, not what you tell them they want.

I don't see how HHG was one bit worse than Kotaku. Making up lies is making up lies. It doesn't matter who you are.
The lastest the example of Kotaku lying about FFvs13 being cancelled when it wasn't is as void of integrity as anything HHG ever did. But this is just the latest example. Kotaku has been doing this crap for years.
Elena Fisher, Last year's model
Bastila Shan - Knights of the Old Republic
Eva - Metal Gear Solid
Alma - Ninja Gaiden Black/Sigma - Her first appearance is still the absolute best boss fight of all time in all of gaming. To be that difficult without being cheap is a feat I have never seen achieved in any other game.
That's only four but that's all I got
Dear Kotaku,
I want my website hit back.
In no way is TDKR, and good as TDK. It's not close.
They probably want to sell the existing stock first. They will probably drop the price in a month or two.
