You can't imagine I've played anything from Square Enix before Final Fantasy XIII? In all that gray matter, you can't possibly conceive of me playing any of it? Nor can you conceive of a human being having a little compassion toward the failings of another, accepting it as THE PAST and moving on? Though for some reason you can conceive of someone starting at series at the thirteenth entry.

Or is that the best justification you can come up with? If someone doesn...

I'm sure everything you've done in your life is a flawless masterpiece.

Well it wasn't uploaded to torrent sites on Xbox.

InFamous is an open world. It's all 'SP' as you put it. And all the missions in the game show up in that world as icons that you navigate to to start the mission.

User-generated missions will show up in that same world as green icons, with filters set up by the player.

So yes.

Nah.

It's a big world out there, despite tech blog tunnel vision. There's room for many options and second place isn't a loser. You don't have to be the best to be successful.

Bioware never said "ME2 on PS3 has the bestest graphics evar!"

The 'press' simply interpreted that way.

They just said "We used the ME3 engine for PS3" because it had been tooled with PS3 in mind. DUH

And they said the PS3 version was the 'definitive' version, not because it performed or looked the best, but because they had gone back and rebalanced a lot of the game and fixed design flaws based on feedbac...

"I think guys are growing up lately with little or no disregard to the sexual needs of their women."

If they have no disregard, that's a good thing.

I think bloggers, lately, are growing up with little or no regard for proper grammar or spelling.

Is this a fair or even relevant comparison? The Epic demo is ostensibly running on hardware that nobody owns.

Does it seem ironic to anyone else that Nintendo feels the need to post the entire UI on screen at all times? Wasn't the goal of the Wii to provide an 'intuitive' control scheme? If it's so intuitive, why can't it be learned throughout the entire course of the game?

They don't have that many pixels to work with to begin with and they're using a quarter of them to display what every button and sensor does.

I think it makes me even m...

I won't argue that point either. And it's not even the fee that bothers me about LIVE (though I also refuse to pay it.) If Nintendo wanted to charge for a full service online feature set, I wouldn't fault them. It's their service.

It's the closed infrastructure that I don't want them or anyone else to copy. It's not good for consumers or the industry at large. I don't necessarily want to see platform convergence, but there's so many opportu...

No, not COD. They can copy COD all they like. It's LIVE that I hope they don't copy.

I hope that doesn't mean Nintendo plans on copying it.

PJ Shooter 2 yesterday, DA2 next week.. and that's about it until I move at the end of the month.

Believable dialog(ue) (I hate american spell correction) is going to contain some cursing, regardless what the narrative is.

Anytime you try to replace the occasional "ass" or "dammit" or "son of a bitch" with euphemisms, you've done a disservice to your characters, your narrative and your audience.

If you try to water it down to Nintendo's level, you end up with some decent stories, as in some of the Zelda games, but non...

It's not hard to spark video game controversy in Australia or Germany.

Having the finest cocaine in the city isn't going to affect the local crack dealer's business one bit.

Apparently at least 2 people are psyched about the Drake Family plundering the world's antiquities.

Do remember that Sucker Punch is independent. They can choose who they like.
