Exactly. One shouldn't allow one's imagination run too wild off of PR talk. Microsoft is simply working the whole online angle in order to set the next Xbox system apart. They believe that online is...

I can do one better. I still have my Coleco and the Smurf game. Not Zaxxon though as I did rent that game and played it so hard I got a water blister on my thumb. But I do have Miner 2049'er and the...

Well, I'd at least partially agree but I'm not sure what any of that has to do with the number of years between generations. At any rate, obviously the winner is the winner regardless of how they get...

Come on, the whole 'Touching is Good' campaign might be funny, but it's also incredibly tacky. Honestly though I don't see why any real gamer would even care about this stuff. It's all PR crap dreamt...

Everybody does publicity stunts of one kind or another. Hell, the whole E3 seems a bit like a publicity stunt. As for too early and it being just an upgrade: just take a look at where the Xbox is...

Yeah, this is pretty much a promotional stunt. I don't get MTV so if I want to see it I'll have to download a video file of it. But only if it's actually worth seeing. Seems to me this generation has...

Ever play Wonder Boy III:The Dragon's Trap? I think it's one of the best games that no one played. The TG16 version is called Dragon's Curse and it's probably the definitive version if just because...

Well, Final Fantasy VII didn't come until after the PS1 had been out for a bit. I remember that it was the game that put the PS1 on the map as far as RPGs go. Up until then the pickings were pretty...

Since the adventure games tell stories that are most like a book or movie it seems reasonable that an adventure game would be able to most easily translate into a good film. By adventure I mean real...

Yeah, I saw this a little while back. I have to say it looks pretty neat and I'm very interested to see how it turns out.

Romancing Saga 3, eh? Well, at least that gave me an idea of what to play next. I checked it out a little and it looks pretty interesting. Ironically it seems to have pretty sane stats and thus shows...

What? I have no idea why telling me how much OoT is not a clone has to do with me saying that OoT was not a clone. I was pondering why - if sticking with the tried and true is such a virtue - OoT...

Sure, how about Wizardry 8 or Geneforge. Though while the 3rd edition of AD&D might be a little hack & slash, I don't see how it's comparable to Final Fantasy Tactics or Silent Storm. Nor do I see...

Why? Why didn't Miyamoto make Ocarina ot Time as a clone of Link to the Past? I'm sure the fans would have been happy and bought it. It would have been consistent with the series and all. So why make...

Yet only the hearts could really be construed as character building in any real way. Items are not attributes of Link. And obviously such a definition would cause almost every modern game to be a...

Well, the Biohazard series and the Devil May Cry series do well in Japan and they are mature. But I agree that the Xbox has been Western-centric and that has affected Japanese sales. Not that there...

I think this movie was the right step for Pixar to take. It's still funny but it's not as much a comedy as the previous films. And it feels as though the movie is just a little more adult than the...

Perhaps it's supposed to be a bit of a catgirl kind of thing. Full on anthropomorphic characters don't seem as common in anime, Night on the Galactic Railroad aside, and perhaps he didn't know how to...
