He's doing it wrong, here's how it should be done:

Konami just shot themselves in the foot.

I don’t know how much the rest of you know about Japanese culture (I’m an expert), but honor and shame are huge parts of it. It’s not like it is in America where you can become successful by being an [dark hold]. If you screw someone over in Japan, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.

What this means is the japanese public, after hearing about this, is not going to want to purchase Metal Gear Solid Rising for either system, nor will they purchase any of Konami’s games. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but Konami has alienated an entire market with this move.

Konami, publicly apologize and cancel Metal Gear Solid Rising for 360 or you can kiss your business goodbye.

This sounds familiar

"It's not about the games anymore. These people..... there is no honor, loyalty, decency or shame. It's all about money.

I'm quitting."

Sony Fanboy from Gamefaqs on Metal Gear Solid Rising.

Cleaning the genepool I see.

Oh God, I remember when this was brand new. I even know the poster!

Also guys, especially with mod powahs. Help me out with link fetching please? The work is getting to me and my IRL situation is nothing short of manic right now.

Finally, EA conference coming up soon. Get ready!

What kind of link fetching do you want? Videos?

Acid · **Reply #255 on:** June 01, 2009, 11:02:37 PM

Well, from what I've heard about the 360 conference, it was pretty meh. Aside from Metal Gear Solid Rising, now we can watching Microsoft cater to the casuals like Nintendo is doing.

Otherwise, meh. EA won't be anything to look forward to either. Truth be told, I'm just waiting for Capcom to blow everything out of the water.

Acid · **Reply #258 on:** June 01, 2009, 11:04:03 PM

Much obliged.

Kit · **Reply #259 on:** June 01, 2009, 11:06:46 PM

As long as Sony doesn't I'll be happy lol

VixyNyan · **Reply #260 on:** June 01, 2009, 11:09:16 PM

Sims 3 was up right now. Looks like pretty much any Sims before that.

They also say how impressed they are of the Wii. ^^

Aww, Littlest Pet Shop~ Pets with bling-bling.

Just for the big things that came from the Microsoft conference and the future conferences. Also Littlest Pet Shop spotlight at E3. WAT.

My thoughts exactly.

I'm still laughing at the first part of the EA conference. God I'm so immature.

Gaia · **Reply #264 on:** June 01, 2009, 11:23:05 PM

Littlest Pet Shop did appear on the DS, so it's logical.

Freude, schöner Götterfunken
Tochter aus Elysium,
Wir betreten feuertrunken,
Himmlische, dein Heiligthum!
Deine Zauber binden wieder
Was die Mode streng getheilt;
Alle Menschen werden Brüder,
Wo dein sanfter Flügel weilt.

VixyNyan · **Reply #266 on:** June 01, 2009, 11:59:53 PM

Brütal Legend was on now.

And Ozzy is gonna be a voice in it. Jack Black has good voice too. ^^

Acid · **Reply #267 on:** June 02, 2009, 12:03:58 AM

And Lemmy Kilmeister

Bioware + Lucas Art = Star Wars Old Republic, multiplayer game. o.o

Acid · **Reply #269 on:** June 02, 2009, 12:18:46 AM

Well that trailer fight was pretty awesome.

There's no way the game could be as cool.

VixyNyan · **Reply #270 on:** June 02, 2009, 12:21:52 AM

Kojima's E3 site is open, and it shows MGS Rising right now... that's it. =w=

Well guys, I'm getting hustled offa the computer right now.

If anyone wants to make a list of announcements like the one I ~~stole~~ made for Microsoft on the first page and put it up there for EA, that'd be greatly appreciated. Thanks again!

Oh brother... Can you say weeaboo?

Ya know, this totally reminds of that video of that one nerd being pissed off about FF13 going to the XBox 360. Anyone got a link to it?

Kieran · **Reply #273 on:** June 02, 2009, 01:21:58 AM

It reminds you of that guy because it's paraphrasing that guy, replacing FFXIII with MGR. =P

Ah right. That makes sense.
