I believe they call it "turning up to 11." (I could not resist. god, I almost regret that.)

I'm still interested in getting the first installment. Played a little bit of it while I was at Best Buy the other day (finally).


...I actually just borrowed DJ Hero from a friend of mine, and I really am enjoying it. I was worried that it wouldn't be getting a sequel, what with the fact that it didn't appear to sell very well. D: Still no IIDX, though.

True, but they're the only two turntable-based rhythm games on the market, which invites comparison, however unwarranted. >>; More like comparing GF/DM to Rock Band: Superficially similar peripherals, totally different execution. That said, I prefer my turntable games to have 7 keys and about a hundred songs I like, as opposed to 3 buttons and tens of songs I like mixed with tens of songs I despise. (Although, I can't get enough of that Ice Ice Baby/Straight Up mashup.)

Also with that said: I'm rather hyped up for the release of DJHero2. :x Game is fun.

Nier ends epically a couple of times, with the ultimate ending doing something I've never heard of a game doing before, for reasons that make perfect sense. (That game needs so much more love.)

I was gonna make a snippy "boohoo why can't I just have Keyboardmania come out here?" comment, and then I saw "Here I Go Again -- Whitesnake" on the songlist.

Then I jumped up and down like a little girl. Oh my god oh my god I get to rock out to Here I Go Again.

This was for a class. I was playing a lot of Nier at the time. If you can't catch the reference... whoops.

--


The darkness is the scariest part.
I can deal with the blood,
that's how a warrior is supposed to go.

My legs ain't workin' like they should...
I try to force 'em underneath me, but no.
Slippery earth and pain reward my efforts.

My eyes won't open -- do I have eyes?
I don't remember. I do, I think.
But they're useless, just like my spaghetti legs.

I sing a little as the muddy earth shakes,
my song accented with gurgling blood and coughing.
Maybe I shouldn't sing. The gods don't like it.

I can feel 'em cryin' at me to stop;
big salty tears fallin' on my wounds.
They sting, and bring me around some.

"C'mon, you giant piece of shit!"
My spindly legs find their way beneath me,
my hand tightening around somethin' heavy.

"What, you can't finish the job?!"
I take a step towards the rumbling,
ready to face whatever it is that hides in the permanent night.

I feel a hot wind at my face. A breath.
"The fuck are you waitin' for?!
You're only killing a wo--"

Crunch.

A few little points to make, as someone who enjoys cartoons both American and Japanese: Anime is not all catgirls/'mons/brawling, all the time. Similarly, the people who watch anime aren't all uncultured boors that just want to see boobs, monsters, and blood.

That said: While I can't vouch for the various 'mon series as not-Pokemon-ripoffs, the suggestion that anime with fight scenes are ripping off of Dragon Ball offends me to no end. D: Dragon Ball is not the first anime to have fight scenes. Further still, it isn't even the first anime to have epic, drawn-out fight scenes. Dig up Hokuto no Ken, that's the Ur-example of testosterone-laden man-on-man action. And by action, I mean combat.

Even with changed dubbing, they look diseducative. Diseducative not because they are repetitive, fights, violence or monsters, but... the content! The content, in my opinion, is missing in many anime.

Grave of the Fireflies: one of the greatest anti-war statements ever made.
Berserk: Yeah, it's violent and horrific, but this show is a masterpiece of character development. Is it a children's show? Fuck no, but animated does not mean "for kids".
Key: The Metal Idol: Science-fiction drama about a young robot(?) girl's quest for 30,000 friends.
Evangelion: I can't stand it myself, but it's what happens when you take a giant robot anime and turn it inside-out.
This is the start of a short list of shows that will generate emotional response and actual -thought- from their viewers. Each one will hit you in the gut with a different kind of sensation -- sorrow, pain, rage, and good ol' fashioned fear.

Ok, some other anime have an unique story, yes? Well, i actually see none of them in my channels, here, in Italy. [...] In this period they are not even broadcasting any kind of cartoons anymore if not afternoon (Two times Spongebob? For an hour? What) or early morning (they make classic cartoons, but i'm not getting up at 7:00 :mad The only alternative is Boomerang, but... no, with my situation i'm not going t waste money. Well, it's not the case of most animes, but also for stuff like CN or likes, in my opinion: With AdobeFlash you can do better than that crap.

Re: No good anime on tv: There's tons of places all over the internet to stream video.
Re: An hour of spongebob: And you thought ANIME was bad.
Re: Adobe Flash... if I'm not mistaken, most shows on CN *ARE* animated in Adobe Flash, with a few shining exceptions in a sea of mediocrity and live-action.

Miyazaki's a beautiful place to start. My personal recommendations are Princess Mononoke, Porco Rosso, and The Cat Returns. If you can get your hands on Nausciaa and the Valley of Wind as a manga, read it. You'll be set for hours of entertainment that way, as opposed to just two from the movie.

Originally posted by Viola

In California especially, a major ruling in favor of same sex marriage would entitle thousands, if not hundreds, to sue the church. Try to think of a hundred lawsuits happening at once, because I guarantee you the church wouldn't be able to pay it by themselves.


This isn't a small, corner-of-your-street church that's bein' sued. The lawsuits would be directed at the central entity (For example, The Church of Latter-Day Saints), as opposed to specific temples/churches/etc. This is a religious organization that takes in an estimated $5 billion a year. Hundreds of lawsuits won't mean anything, aside from them losing some money for dicking with a governmental proceeding that they have no right to be involved in.

Iron wall of seperation: I won't tell you how to run your religion, so keep the fuck out of my government.

Thermonuclear warfare. The only winning move is not to play. (Stolen BLATANTLY from Xk.)

Seriously though: Hardest game I've played is Mushihimesama, and Mushihimesama Futari (the sequel!) looks even -harder-. Outside of bullet hell, and with realistic expectations... I dunno. Contra Hard Corps (US)? That game used to own me all the time.

Work in progress. Mind, this is sort of an "artists' rendition", but the little block next to the big grey formerly-blue-x'd block is actually fairly symmetrical, so I'd say that what I recreated is pretty damn close to the original. :o

Solution! Make them play Rockman 2. It doesn't have a Difficult, because "difficult" for Megaman 2 is... well, Rockman 2. No choice to begin with!
