Pffft. This just made me even more interested in Killer Is Dead. I really enjoyed the campy aesthetic of Lollipop Chainsaw. These folks need to get lives. I've seen far worse stuff in movies and on TV.
I still kind of wonder if this is some publicity stunt for Fez 2 that's building off of Fish's reputation for being an arrogant asshole.
Good to see you again. I see you're still as MGS-obsessed as ever!
Surprisingly, I actually am familiar with most of these characters, or at least the games they're in. The Sega cast is probably the most obscure of the three companies due to Sega's spotty track records in localization and marketing, but the Sega characters are my favorites. I sure wish Valkyria Chronicles 3 would come over here, since you know how much I love that series, but maybe an English patch will be finished for it. Ditto with Sakura Wars and Virtua Fighter, which also both made my top 20 list of favorite games. I also have Resonance of Fate, which is one of the best RPGs of the generation.
I'd still rather read printed stuff than read it on tablets, and especially on dinky little smartphone screens. I like my iPhone, but I'm not reading 100 pages of shit on that screen.
I think I'll stick with the Tex Murphy series for my fix of dystopian point-and-clickers.
Like others have said, I'll tackle this one after much better RPGs like Tales of Xillia. That said, I've seen plenty of worse games.
Valkyria Chronicles and Ni no Kuni come to mind. I'd also recommend Tales of Graces f and the upcoming Tales of Xillia.
Pac-Man has gotten quite a bit of love over the years, actually. Pac-Man was never going to be an all-encompassing media franchise the way Mario is. The original game endures because of its simple concept and instantly recognizable characters. Even non-gamers generally know what Pac-Man is.
Nevertheless, the Pac-Man franchise did spawn a lot of games in the arcades and on home consoles. Examples include Pac-Land (a side-scrolling platformer from 1984), Pac-Mania (an isometric-pseudo-3D Pac-Man from 1987), Pac-Man 2 on the SNES, and the Pac-Man World games from the 5th and 6th-gen consoles, and more recently, the Pac-Man Championship Edition games available on downloadable services.
I have Pac-Man DX II on PS3, and it is quite good.
