I'm in! .....

At least something good comes from owning a Wii! :p Though I think it's quite telling that you said they didn't look "too bad". I didn't mean to imply that they look terrible, but you have to remember that that was as good as graphics got at one point! (Plus it's also things you'd only see in motion, like characters' faces when they talk or stiff animations - things that generally tend to age better when they're cartoony and intentionally exaggerated.) Anyway, we're all going to play the next Zelda no matter what it looks like.

I'm not sure why anyone was excited about seeing Roxas, Axel and Xion eating ice cream. I still wake up in a cold sweat sometimes after a nightmare about 358/2 Days and its 358 scenes of the main characters eating ice cream. [/slight exaggeration] I don't skip games. It doesn't seem fair to speak about the series as a whole if you're going to skip all of the bad games. :p

I wish we were in the spoiler thread, because this post is short and stupid and using a spoiler box just makes it seem like I have something important to say, but...

But what if he prefers the later episodes over the classic ones? WHAT THEN? :p I think that would be worse than your child not being interested in video games at all. They love video games, but they refuse to play any of the classics. "Dad, why would I play Super Mario Bros. 3 when I could be playing New Super Mario Bros. Wii U? That has much better graphics and co-op!" "Ocarina of Time? More like Ocarina of Terrible Graphics!" (Kids aren't very good at insults.) I'd feel so old.

They could just build new booths out of booth babes. Best E3 ever?

THERE IS NO TURNING BACK NOW. *Waits for Goafer to tell Danny that unfortunately he can't pick him up at the airport*

"I don't believe in visual styles aging well or badly." "The Wind Waker looked fantastic on release and always will." Makes sense. I remember back when the Quake III Arena engine was state of the art and I thought every game that used it looked fantastic. Going back to play games that used that engine ten years later always reminds me of how badly the graphics in realistic-looking games tend to age.

It is, but I think ReZ has been waiting for the handheld version rather than playing it on the PS3. Disgaea always felt more like a handheld game to me, too. Edit: Or maybe he's already played it on the PS3 and is just a huge fan.

I really need to play Disgaea, but I have another four SRPGs on the PSP to play too, and I'm just not ready to commit the time to playing them right now.

Just stalk her on Facebook like a normal person, Moogle.

I still think the card system was a rubbish way to play the game. :p Well, to be fair, the whole game was rubbish. I want to be excited about Dream Drop Distance, but I need to buy and play Re:coded first. That's really killing my excitement.

And suddenly Ashley's attempts at flirting don't look so clumsy anymore. :p

Rokhed? It's a bit weird that you don't know how old you are, but welcome, anyway. :p

Are the words "play games" supposed to create a hidden link to another website? (Examples here, here and here.) I only noticed yesterday when I saw it in Bard's post.

The only difference is that when it's your birthday, you don't have to pay for it.

Are you applying for a job in the '80s?

Happy birthday, Arab Freak Saad. Ignore Ashley's poor attempt at flirting with you. Sex doesn't count as a birthday gift.

I'm not expecting much, to be honest. I'll probably play it out of curiosity, but there's not much they can do to salvage the ending for me at this point.

They all seem pretty gay to me. And now, thanks to this game, they all will be.

Yeah, Marth, if no one else.

"How appropriate, you fight like a little girl." Because, you know... diary...

I love how people went from "this game looks awesome" to "this game looks terrible" to "this game is awesome". I'll add it to my list of games to check out when I have the money.

Yeah, Cube. Get off your lazy butt and get yourself a girlfriend. Or a boyfriend.

I think Retro knows that running a Pokémon website gets you all the ladies, so he's angling to buy it. I almost think Serebii's love troubles deserve their own thread at this point, or we should just rename this one. :p
