I watched Girls und Panzer as it was released and I wasn't too fond of it. I did just realize they have released the final two epsiodes so I will watch those soon. I wasn't too fond of Vividred Operation either. Blast of Tempest and Fate Zero are two shows I loved that I watched recently.
"The campaign isn’t too long (took me about 57 hours)" Well, that certainly sounds pretty long :P. You must have done a lot of the optional content or training as I beat it in under 30 hours. Great review though. I don't think you mentioned the gorgeous anime cut-scenes, which I enjoyed even more than the ones in Ni no Kuni.
News of Ebert's death shocked me. He was a great movie critic. Pretty funny video too.
Yep, a lot of great games. It's always nice to keep track of the great stuff, so I can look at these games to prove gaming is a good use of time!
Tuesday is Toonie Tuesday at KFC (actually "Tuesday Special" now that they've jacked up the prices). So yeah, Tuesday is the worst day of the week!
Mind-blowing twist? Reminds me a lot of the infamous twist in the original Bioshock!
I don't understand either why Square expected such huge sales for the new Tomb Raider. It's not like it's riding the coatails of a big hollywood movie anymore. Tomb Raider has been a stagnant franchise in sales for over a decade, I'm amazed it managed to sell so well.
I'm actually kind of glad they are replacing David Hayter in MGS. IMO, I think Hayter hasn't really done a great job voicing the character after MGS3. It's almost feels like he's been phoning it in, his performance just seemed really boring to me in MGS4.
That's odd, I found Sly Cooper incredibly easy to pick up and play. The short intro section is my least favorite part of the game as it is mired in tutorials. I can't blame you for pushing Ni no Kuni and Sly for later though; you got a lot of games to play. I can't wait to finally try Bioshock Infinite!
I remember EGM did an April Fools prank about a nude code in DOA: Xtreme Beach Volleyball. In order to unlock it I think you had to beat it in an impossibly short time. Of course, I never caught on, as I never got the next issue that would reveal it was an April Fools joke. So I believed it was a real thing until I found out many years later! It was very believable too because it was well known that the game was tagged for nudity by ESRB!
Well hey, enjoy working yourself up the oppressive ranks of Capcom. I'm impressed you could juggle developing this many games!
