I have tried to stay optimistic about Final Fantasy, but it looks like Squeenix is going to let Nomura run it into the ground and straight to hell. The trailer looked impressive, but take out the classic FF enemys and it could have been a trailer for Devil May Cry. They should drop the Final Fantasy name instead of shamelessly tacking it on to stuff so the most loyal, hardcore fans will buy it.

Not a fan of Microsoft and there money sponge tactics anyway. But I truly believe their arrogance is going to be their downfall on this. They should go ahead and rename it the Titanic Box or the Hindenburg Box.

I'll have to keep an eye out for that one. I have been pretty much drinking Sierra Nevada's Torpedo IPA exclusively. So far its one of the best IPA's I have found. There regular IPA is very good too if you want something with less bite and a little less alcohol.

I got that one too, found it super cheap at Toys R Us. The main reason I got it was because it came with a memory card. I couldn't get into it either, it just seemed like the whole point of the game was to collect stuff to decorate your house. Maybe there is more too it than that but I didn't play it long enough to find out.

I agree with your catherine example. I personly thought this was what made the Mass Effect games so revolutionary was it made the games accessable to prteey much anyone.

As for the IOS thats kind of my point,  most "casual" gamers are playing on tablets and phones, a lot of which are female who are not lilkely to own consoles. The people making these games know this and give them what they want. There are radio stations and tv networks already capitalizing on mysoginistic programming that their core audience is oblivious too because they are are just cooky cutter personalities who think this is what it mean to be female. Just like what Spike does to  men.

My only issue with this is it leads to extremist "outlets" that go all the way in one direction to cater to a certain demographic. Examples: magazines like Jet, Ebony, anything written and produced by Tyler Perry,TV networks like Lifetime (This channel is one big made for TV movie portraying men as abusive, rapist ,child molesters) Spike, BET,ect.

I agree to a point that game developers need to evolve and stop playing it safe with the same old formulas and useing violence and sex like a 10 ton crutch. The fact is there is a lot of variety out there and women who like to play video games like the same games that men like. The group of women who would be the target with gearing games at them are not likely to play them in the first place. Unless you want to make games about applying makeup, painting nails and playing dress up which to me would be the most mysoginistic thing you could do.

Yeah, it never fails the first batch always end up having some loose ends. When it comes to these things patience truly is a virtue, lol. Guesse that comes with age cause if I was 19 or 20 I think might would be placing a preorder .

I'm not really happy about the PS+ thing for online play. Inititialy I really didn't care about online, but them I started playing Borderlands 2 and some fighters online . Plus My bro will eventually get one so we can play online. This is why I'm not in a rush to get a PS4. I got plenty to keep me buissy and it sounds like there will still be a lot of PS3 games coming out for at least another year or two. There were still PS2 games dropping a good three years after PS3 had been out. As ususal I will wait and see what happens.

So I guesse turn based combat is totally passe now. I won't lie it looks impressive, but it also looks like DMC/Ninja Gaiden in Final Fantasy clothing. I guesse I'm just oldschool or overly nostalgic but this is not my idea of a true Final Fantasy. I'm sure it will still be an incredible game, I just think it should be called something else.
