Still haven't got this game, on account of too many good games lately. Should I? The demo made it seem too God of War-ish, and God knows how tired I am of that game.

Watch "Mayhem of the Music Meister". Well, that if you like musicals.
If you have an obscure DC favorite character, tell me and I'll tell you the ep that features it.

Of course, I don't think it was necessarily for either better or worse, but my parents haven't buged too much from the mindset. They still turn the channel when people are kissing on TV, when either I or Dex are around.
Go download Cinema Paradiso and watch it. The in-joke will be aparent.

« on: March 17, 2011, 01:07:46 AM »Ah, sorry. I (wrongly) inferred that you stopped reading it. So what do you think of the current storyline then?So far? The nerd using Foursquare to destroy the world reeks of Marvel, but I'll have to read more to make an opinion.
Which one was that again? I haven't had the time to watch B&B.
And it's the Christmas ep with Red Tornado. Basically, making Red Tornado go through the motions as "WUT DUZZ IT MEAN TO FEEL CHRISTMAS SPIRIT". Robot clichés are tiring, and they could have used it for so much better. Also, Batman is Scrooge.

I have never read anything by Beechen which was decent.
Here are some of his amazing exploits:
- Turning Cassandra Cain from one of the best DC characters and one of the best female comic characters of all time into an evil whore
- Making Jimmy Olsen fight Darkseid some time before Final Crisis (Granted, Darkseid IS A JIMMY OLSEN VILLAIN, but still)
- Ruining Terry McGinnis and all other characters he ever wrote by writing them out of character
- Writing COUNTDOWN (oh god)
- Failing to turn the easiest-to-make-good Brave and the Bold episode into something heartwarming, instead coming out just mediocre
So far. Beechen is very new and it's obvious that some higher ups love him and keep giving him work, even though he is a horrible writer.
...god dammit.
JMS. ALL IS FORGIVEN. YOU MIGHT BE WRITING ONE OF THE WORST SUPERMAN STORIES OF ALL TIME. BUT I FORGIVE YOU. YOU KNOW WHY?
BECAUSE YOU MADE IT CANON. ;_______; AND THAT'S AS MANY AS FOUR TENS.
...AND THAT'S TERRIBLE.

« on: March 16, 2011, 09:12:01 PM »Somehow I feel that shooters, like the hip-hop subculture, will never die. Not that I'm hating on shooters in general or anything, just saying that they'll probably be here to stay for very long.Shooters (I'm assuming you mean FPS games, and maybe some of those TPS cover-based ones that are so popular right now) are good. They're a decent, solid genre, which is very good and flexible, meaning pretty much any action game can turn into one. But don't bet on tham lasting forever. I mean... that's what we thought about the 2D platforming genre, right? Back when every single game was a platformer.
But why are little kids playing them? They are for MATURE PLAYERS ONLY. [tornado fang]ing irresponsible parents. They have no regard for entertainment software ratings. Either that, or they have their backs turned way too often.
Sorry for the rant on parenting. I'll STFU now. Good day.
And little kids play them because their friends play them. Because it's all MATURE AND EDGY. And because if their parents won't let them, they'll feel pressured out of their friend groups.
We all liked MATURE AND EDGY [parasitic bomb] as kids.

One good thing about the latest JMS Superman issue is that it brought back the Superman Squad from DC One Million.
And I'm not fond of how JMS is handling the Superman Squad. When a bad writer is writing something, I'd rather he won't touch my favorite characters at all.
...like Beechen is doing now. Ruining Batman Beyond.

« on: March 16, 2011, 10:50:25 AM »If only Superman was written as well as Batman right now...That's honestly because JMS sucks right now. But he's quit monthly comics, so he'll be out right after the Superman and Wonder Woman arcs.
Granted, Action Comics with Paul Cornell is crazy awesome, but it features Lex Luthor right now. Superboy as well but has a horrible artist holding it back. Supergirl... I'm in "wait and see" mode right now.
As for Cornell, love his Action Comics (will never forgive his artist for the way he drew Larfleeze, but aside from that, he's pretty good), but I actually find his Knight and Squire series really.... well, dull. The first one was good, but the rest have been incredibly boring. Just references everywhere and no meat whatsoever.
For Supergirl, I LOVED the Bizarro planet arc. But currently prefer to just read her specials with Damian.

Yeah, but All-Star Superman was an issue comic. =P Supposed to be read that way. This is simply put, a book.
Heck, I don't think Batman Inc will be as good in the actual hardcover compilation, because the "TUNE IN NEXT MONTH" pages won't have as much effect.

« on: March 16, 2011, 03:56:07 AM »Hm, interesting recommendation. I'm not really familiar with DOA, but it looks pretty and has Ridley raking the walls with my enemy's face, so I had intended to pick it up.DOA (at least the first 3) are games in which it's quite easy to get ahold of a character's combos, because they work like a regular single player game's gameplay, ala Devil May Cry or Ninja Gaiden. It's kind of a faster-paced Tekken, in which you can combine big combos and keep jabbing. They're based on logic rather than learning combinations. It's the best fighter for any beginner, because you have fun no matter what. Not only that, it's really fun to throw players into the interactive sceneries.
That was, however, when I thought it'd be a launch title.These days I'm leaning towards Pilotwings and SSF4 to kick things off, and not being much of a fan of traditional fighters, it's a tough question as to whether or not I really want both SSF4 and DOA.
