  1. It's a niche basement dweller otaku Japanese game that appeals to dudes like me, so it's par for the course. I'll probably get it soon after I get Lost Dimension and find out tomorrow how my interview will go.
  2. My whole problem with this whole episode on Hulk Hogan is if it wasn't for Hogan, the WWE really wouldn't be where it is today. Sure, Vince could have gotten someone else (Magnum T.A. if he didn't end his career prematurely, Dr. D David Schultz, Dusty Rhodes), but I don't think the WWE would have gotten as far (nor sold out WrestleMania III). There's honestly no excuse for Hogan's current behavior, but giving him the Benoit treatment for everything he's done is knee-jerk reactionary and typical Vince McMahon. Will this mean every match with Hogan on the WWE Network is gone too (if that's the case, there goes a lot of people's reasons for subscribing)? If the WWE now all of sudden is against racism or discrimination, why hasn't Vince been fired for saying the 'n-word' on TV (albeit in a storyline)? Why hasn't Akeem the African Dream been purged? Or Saba Simba? Or Kamala? After awhile, the WWE will run out of people whose behavior they are ashamed of being associated with.
  3. Also, Ubisoft (twice) with Beyond Good & Evil and a PS2 Prince of Persia game and an Assassin's Creed game and Rayman Origins.
  4. Yes, but this is Microsoft we're talking about. They don't care. They had Halo 4 come out a week before COD Black Ops II so they won't delay Tomb Raider just because Fallout 4 will be out too...
  5. I'm not saying keep the same jokes...obviously, update the jokes for today but there's something really charming about the Muppet Show that worked. Maybe the new Muppets show is doing that -- I don't know. But based on what they showed as 'proof of concept,' I don't have a good feeling about it. It'll be on for a season or two and that's it. Or it'll find legs and be on for longer than that.
  6. There's a reason why The Muppet Show was on for 5 years. What ain't broke, don't try to fix it.
  7. Not sure how I really feel about this. The Muppets are more of a 'wink wink nudge nudge' type of humor that adults like and kids laugh at the silliness of it without realizing the jokes. But it isn't overly adult -- it's just right. Having Kermit be a stand-in for Michael Scott and having Fozzy Bear exploring dating I think is a little too much and turns into a safe for TV Avenue Q. I would prefer for the Muppets to have it be like the original Muppet Show and be sort of an internet age variety show (get acts like Drake or Lana Del Rey or the like on there). Maybe that's what they are doing but the faux docu-comedy style is a bit old.
  8. Have none of the people requesting this even played a Strike Force mission? Those were some of the most broken mechanics I've ever seen. Tower defense + COD does not mix.
  9. I got N++ pre-ordered with GALAK-Z & Everybody's Gone to the Rapture to follow next weekend.
  10. There's going to be another flash sale this week for sci-fi games/movies. Jamestown+, Borderlands Handsome Jack Collection, Geometry Wars 3, and Alien Isolation + season pass are the bigger deals for it.
  11. More than likely, nothing much will change at Nintendo as a result of Iwata's passing. Whatever plans they have for "Nintendo NX" will likely stay in place. After that, it's up in the air. EDIT: Honestly Iwata wasn't that bad and he was at the early days of NES and despite the recent years, that's pretty great.
  12. It's a "game by committee" that Blizzard is starting to make due to their corporate overlords Activision. The Blizzard that made Warcraft II & Diablo II would have laughed if you told them to make this game. You shouldn't play it because you are rewarding Activision.
  13. First time I start on Rocket League and online against other players, I get a goal and DING! trophy.
  14. I really want a stand-alone LEGO Dr. Who game now. Get David Tennant and Matt Smith to do voice acting along with Karen Gilson and Traveler's Tales will have my money.
  15. I downloaded Rocket League (PS+ baybee!) and I'm ready. See you next week. Work? What's that?
  16. I finally beat Arkham Asylum on Hard Mode and I got the challenge trophies and two freeflow trophies left before a Platinum. Argh, my will is fading with this game....
  17. I realize I'm in the minority but to me, Hard Mode should have better health upgrades or more. Four health upgrades is not sufficient. Sadly, Arkham City is a GTA clone and Arkham Knight appears to be more Crackdown like.
  18. Batman: Arkham Asylum on Hard Mode is ridiculous. I'm nearing the end and I hate this game. I may or may not do the other trophies for a Platinum. The enemies take away too much health and the health upgrades suck. To me, Arkham Asylum has not aged well and is in danger of being overrated.
  19. I decided to try to Platinum Batman: Arkham Asylum (oh god the challenges) prior to doing Arkham Knight. So my question is
  20. Like an idiot, I decided to try to Platinum Batman: Arkham Asylum even though I have a copy of Arkham Knight RIGHT THERE. Did I mention I'm an idiot?
  21. I've bought so much bullshit at Gamestop over the years thanks to 18-22 year old female employees. I rarely see any female employees at the Gamestops I go to. Mostly fat bearded dudes.
  22. Yup, Telltale's Game of Thrones season pass at $12.50 is a steal. Oh and Dragon's Dogma Dark Arisen is a pretty worthy $13 to spend. Plus, you can get all the bedwetter otaku weirdo JRPG's you want! -- I play them and own them all already
  23. Don't forget that Patrick MacNee did have an appearance in A View To A Kill.
  24. I finally Platinum'ed Enslaved: Odyssey to the West last night. I'm hoping to do Devil May Cry 1 HD this weekend.
  25. I picked up my PS4 copy from Best Buy yesterday. It's already the best looking game I've ever seen. Although I sorta think the M rating is a bit of a misnomer. It's no more violent thus far than Arkham City. I still want to Platinum Arkham Asylum, City, Origins and Blackgate Vita & PS3 before this though. Yes I'm nuts.
