I don't want to generalize or stereotype in anyway, but... aren't americans aware of how amazingly popular Football is everywhere in the world except there? The WHOLE WORLD is in love with it. It is obscenely popular pretty much everywhere. It's like so many people aren't aware of this. Heck, I have NEVER seen a single Madden game being sold here in my life, but Pro Evo and Fifa tournaments here, exploiting bugs and certain stats, exploring every inch of the game as if it was the japanese arcade scene in Street Fighter and other games... it is a WAY OF LIFE over here. And in many other places as well, I'd wager.

Thing about Hammond, is that he is RIDICULOUS. There's only so much you can do with a big-headed psychic man who is a giant pervert. He's being teased alot, so he'll probably have a big role later. Hell, the part where he absorbed Ephidian was a really big participation when it comes to him. Old villains don't have much of a place in the show, but Johns uses them from time to time. Other than just being a puppet and Nekron's connection, Dead Hand did little in Blackest Night. But he was still important in No Fear's story.
Give it time.

« on: March 27, 2011, 11:32:30 PM »That was why I liked most of Johns' earlier work. He took the time to build a supporting cast, and that is the biggest weakness of Green Lantern right now. Whatever happened to his brother Jim and the rest of the family? We got an appearance in Blackest Night eighteen years ago but that's it and I'm disappointed. The definitive moment in "Sinestro Corps" was when Hal told his family to leave Coast City in GL #25 and his response was "Hell no!" Don't get me wrong, the book is doing fine right now but I am somewhat unsatisfied that we get the New Guardians for a supporting cast but Larfreeze and Sinestro aside, I'm not warming up to them a whole lot. Plus there's the fact that Hal rejoined the USAF at the beginning of the title, he's been AWOL a lot and I don't think he has that much leeway with his commanding officer. There are so many things that Johns has forgotten to address since he introduced us to the various Corps.Yeah, I know alot of stuff wasn't addressed, but I gotta say that the present cast still has too much to evolve. Johns has a certain way to evolve certain cast members. The commanding officer was a guy Hal disrespected back then. He was brought in so Hal could make peace with his ghosts of the past. He was simply used as a plot device after. And if he has any opinion about how Hal's been skipping so much work, he neverthless understands that an invasion of Black lanterns through the whole universe can get you alot of work. As far as Hal's brother, the very thing about him was his constant fear of danger. And the progression, from No Fear up to Sinestro Corps War, was for Coast City to acknowledge Green Lantern as the hero they trust, and for Hal's bro to lose his fear completely, having faith in the heroes to save them.
Come to think about it, what happened to Hector Hammond? Did Krona just remove the entity and toss him in a ditch? What about Hal's other foes? I remember there being mention of Evil Star from Blue Lantern, Sister Mercy a while back, and then there's Sonar who we haven't seen since about #4 or #5. I thought we would have seen something with him a while back.
So much missed potential.
Remember the detective partners from Johns' Flash run? The old guy and the black guy? (can't remember their names). They were disregarded and thrown aside a bit as soon as his run ended, but they weren't serving alot of purpose after their story arcs had ended. That's kinda the way Johns builds each character. By building on each one at a time, and as soon as they are, they get pushed off to the side and serve their purpose later. As far as now, we're STILL finding things out about Atrocitus. Sinestro's pretty much scooped as a past, but he's being built upon. Larfleeze still has his oath to say and lotsa comedy to bring. And Indigo's purpose isn't even known yet, as well as their relationship with Abin Sur.
Let him build upon the foundation he's created. He'll get to it.

I'm kinda interested to see how he'll end this whole Krona thing. I just want a story that ends the constant EVENT-AFTER-ANOTHER thing and just gives Hal a break for a bit before he goes into more epic quests to save the universe.
...and I want Larfleeze's oath, dammit.

« on: March 27, 2011, 10:03:00 PM »A good top-loading NES, I believe you mean. Unless you've been doing the occasional pin-surgery.I think it is of simplicity as well. The whole Nintendo product range reeks of simplicity. The Wii, for example, astounds me as to the complete and total lack of customization options it has, the way they never really updated the channel system or used extra memory for anything useful other than VC game storage, the way so many features and channels they add are completely reduntant and infantile, and how there's really a TON of easy-added options they could make millions with, that they just choose not to add.
I don't think it's so much a matter of simplicity as it is control. If you depend on them directly for replacements, and the stability of your library, then you're less likely to do anything out of warranty and/or anything that their repair guys will deliberately penalize you for (a practice already well-established with the Wii). Read: It's one more method to make sure you use their products their way.
I know it doesn't appeal to us particularly, but imagine the Wii with Facebook and Twitter channels, like the 360 has. No matter how incredibly basic they'd be, they would have a LARGE success. And I know Nintendo wants to stay as far away as possible from the app market and keep people in the dark ages about how all games must cost 40 bucks or more all the time, but with how widespread their software is, they could make so much from that market. So much more they're making now.
I know Nintendo isn't one to shy away from money. Why are they doing so now?

Afro Samurai. Just because it was small, torrent-wise.
So far, it's a regular hack and slash without any kind of depth. But the style and soundtrack are cool.

Wanna know how the X series comes about? It comes about like this:
"IN THE FUTUUUUURE... LOOONG AFTER THE ORIGINAL SERIES....THIS HAPPENS!"
That's it. That's just it. Waiting for the final connecting game is like waiting for the comic where a superhero gets old and quits. It just doesn't happen, no matter how many future timelines we got.

Capcom could go bankrupt and Megaman to fall out of popularity for sixty years, but later, some dude would get the copyrights and continue the whole thing.
