Oct. 8-10 is Friday to Sunday.  Quick search of events revealed an MvC3 specific panel on Friday, and World of Capcom 2010 And Beyond on Sunday (I assume that's where one wants to go for L3 info).

I've tentatively drafted my brother into making the trip on Sunday (I HATE big-city driving, and he likes New York).  First time for both of us.  No plans to cosplay, but for me a gaming t-shirt is a must.

You are correct sir. The exact time of the World of Capcom panel is 12:15PM, so you might want to get there early, cause sometimes lines do tend to form. Odds are, since they've essentially announced a trailer there, that it will definitely be packed, so try are get there early to line up.

That and GL Corps are quickly becoming favorites in DC and it makes me sad I've missed out on so much. But, from GL: Rebirth on has seemed like a damn good time to get into Green Lantern. Once I get all caught up, I'm thinking about jumping back into the older stuff and reading the best of it as well as Rayner's stories when he was the so called "Last" Green Lantern. He seems to be my favorite right now.

Yeah, the GL universe is, IMO, the best thing out in DC right now, and it has been since Rebirth. As for the older stuff, Kyle Rayner is my favorite GL. I loved his time as the last GL.

Also just finished Batman RIP. Truth be told, that little reveal on Doctor Hurt felt more like "how far can we take this before people go 'what the [tornado fang]'?". With what I know of Batman's fate in Final Crisis and what I've heard about Batman 701 and 702, I'm really not too high on Morrison's writing at the moment. I'm trying to give it a chance though, waiting for that big pay off moment where everything leaves you in a state of "Oh [parasitic bomb]". Hope I find it.

The thing with Morrison is, you have to like his writing and you have to be kinda use to it. I've followed him ever since his run on JLA, and I loved it. But it's understandable, so don't be surprised if it doesn't do it for you. With Morrison, it's usually a like or dislike relationship. XD

Note: Stop hazing Mirby as well, this isn't the first time I've seen you go after her specifically. I won't stand for that bullshit.

That wasn't a hazing. It was a direct and serious warning.

I am going to try to, but I'm not sure if they'll let me shoot video of the panel itself. I was gonna bring my video camera though.

Actually, I think it's used as both a sword and a light blaster. Perhaps it's a Zapperblade?  8D

So I finally got around to reading the Darkwing Duck comics, and I've gotta say, so far they are quite enjoyable.

And yet you did because you clearly don't think about what you say or what you type when you say or type it. This isn't the first argument I've seen you get into without any knowledge of. In fact, it's not the first argument I've seen you get into without any knowledge in the past 2 days.

However, it better be the last. Do I make myself [tornado fang]ing clear?

half the members weren't even around for that. More than half. You included, so maybe you should stop acting like you know how the site works when you are still a relative noob compared to the rest of us here.

You weren't around for it either.  Follow your own advice. Also, do what Acid says.

For me, the 3DS is perfect. I need a new DS anyway, cause I'm still using the original, and I was going to upgrade anyway to the DSi XL, before hearing the "NEW DS TO BE SHOWN AT E3" rumor which turned out to be the very same 3DS we're talking about right now. So now I get a brand new system, and in glorious 3D, with Wi-Fi galore and power over millions.

LoL, by the time it comes out, I will hopefully have a much more steady job so that I can upgrade my Verizon phone plan to a data plan, get that free Verizon Mi-Fi spot thingy with the upgrade, and thus have INTERNET EVERYWHERE!

...But yeah, Kid Icarus looks fan-[tornado fang]ing-tastic. IN FACT LETS WATCH THE TRAILER AGAIN!

Unlikely to satisfy you, as Xtreme2 lacks a single-button dash command.  Therefore, you can never dash-wall-kick even with button mapping.  I thought we were already over this in discussing emulation on other systems?

My dear Shell. We've had so many discussions about the subject, things tend to get lost in the madness!  8)

Ah well, no loss then.

One would hope that there are multiple options for the controls. I'm also hoping they do something with the online features of the 3DS, maybe so all us RPMers can compare notes, trade parts, something to that effect.

10693
Honestly my guess is that the touch screen might be used for the lock-on.

The SOLE reason to buy a new console is because it is more powerful and replaces the preceding one for all newer game releases. Gimmicks like touch screen and 3D are just additional selling points. So why can't people just want the 3DS because it's a more powerful DS that will be having all new games on it?

Because that would make.....sense?

The problem is that if he's not going to use it 3DS for the 3D aspect, he sees no point in buying it, and so he's going to miss out on Legends 3.

Wrong again. The game is being released on the system, which I agree I do not like the risks nor how I feel after 3d is shot to my eyes. It's not even the -system- it's the science behind it. Basic biology information can tell you the dangers of it, along with playing Legends--a game with CONSTANT lights heading at you....all I can say is bye bye eyes. I was tempted with OoT when I first heard about it. No doubt. With this? No. Way. Which is why I say that I would prefer it to be on a gaming station that is common and around. Financial risk minimized, no chance of a law suit happening, and less blind people in the world or seizures from playing legends 3.

No no, I'm still right. In fact, you just proved my point. The science behind the system is still the system. It is its main selling point, just like motion control gaming was with the Wii, and it is that revolutionary ideal which is going to sell the system and all the science-y mysticism behind it. Also, have you considered the fact that maybe, just maybe, Sharp and Nintendo have factored in people with your eyesight? You know, that they have some test groups and such that they bring in to their testing areas before they venture forth into their new technological dream idea that's coming out? Or that maybe some of the many many people who have already praised the visuals after seeing first hand are also not comfortable with 3D and perhaps have eyesight as "3Dangerous" as yours? I mean, I'm pretty sure they all don't have many flawlessly awesome vision! XD

@pb: "Watching a 3D TV can reportedly cause “an epileptic seizure or stroke,” and the following symptoms should be watched out for, “(1) altered vision; (2) lightheadedness; (3) dizziness; (4) involuntary movements such as eye or muscle twitching; (5) confusion; (6) nausea; (7) loss of awareness; (8) convulsions; (9) cramps; and/or (10) disorientation.”

Then there is the “motion sickness, perceptual after effects, disorientation, eye strain, and decreased postural stability,” and possible “damage [to] your eyesight.”
"
Yep. 3d tv. Worth it. So very very worth it despite all of this.  O:<

And again, which is why they give you the option to slide it off. See, options are good things. It means that even if people like you do get symptoms from this, there's still the option to turn it off. There's also the option of not buying it for fear of said side effect.

Why would the gamer side not be interested too? If Sharp's technology works, they will most likely be implementing this into their TV's shortly, with a promotion of glasses-less 3D entertainment which you can shut on or off. If this works as well as it should, then you can be sure the majority of new TV's that will be coming out in the next 3-5 years are going to all have this option, and so will games from all 3 main competitors.

Am I the only one who couldn't care less about the 3D in the 3DS and will probably have it turned off most of the time and am more interested in the fan-[tornado fang]ing-tastic line up of games already announced?

Just wondering.

Actually I'm very interested in the technology they're promoting regarding glasses-less 3D. The fan-[tornado fang]ing-tastic line up of games help as well.

The N-gage, Pspggo!, virtual boys' were all gaming systems. They all have their own reasons for failing, truthfully, but they all had not competition at the time is the point. And yes, exclusives are exclusives. However the jump from platform to 3ds is a huge one. Halo did jump to PC from 360, however it was still for the 360 mainly for the main series. Smart movie by Bungie. Rather than trying to make a portable Xbox and then releasing a Halo game for it.

No, they pretty much have the same reason for failing: nothing to offer the majority. And how is it huge? It's jumping to a system which is guaranteed to sell millions.

The jump to 3ds is what is important as Inafune has shown and announced. If it weren't then I wouldn't be having this discussion. I don't fear a 3ds. I am pretty sure I can reduce it to it's basic elements after three to five hours in a lab. :D I do however think my eyesight and health > Legends 3. I am not willing to go and bring harm to myself just to play a video game. By the way, how's that putting your eyes to a light for a minute straight while flicking the light on and off going? It's about the same effect.

Clearly you do fear the 3DS, or rather the damage it's going to do to your eyes. The problem isn't the game, it's you. I have no problem with 3D, or especially with a system with which we don't know fully how it's going to look, even though last I heard the vast, vast majority of people who covered it at E3 and so on said it looked phenomenal.
