Okay, so Allan has his fun with the strange and mentally challenged letters yesterday. So where does that leave me? With a bunch of strange, and to be honest, rather goofy letters. Not that I have a problem with that or anything. But be warned, if you're expecting to see some life-altering, soul-shattering Q and A today, you've come to the wrong place. And if you still want some good laughs, you can always cruise on over to American Guardian. That site is so politically incorrect, it makes Allan and I look like saints.
The world of Seiken Densetsu takes place in an alternate reality in which Richard Simmons went into fashion design rather than aerobics. Men the world over could finally live out their hidden pirate fantasies, and chicks dig guys in doilies. Simmons' stylings were a huge success. As for names, I can't help you there. My Japanese is about as fluent as... as... as something that's not fluent.
Well, Suikoden II has a feature that allows you to use saved data from the first game to obtain secret characters, but that it isn't essential to the game. And as for SaGa, that's a negatory. SaGa Frontier and SaGa Frontier II have pretty much nothing in common. Thank your lucky stars you don't have to suffer through SaGa Frontier to enjoy part 2.
Yeah, according to EB World, the game's due out on the 9th.
The "Chrono Trigger sequel" question is a lot like a Hanson song. It's annoying, it doesn't go away no matter how much you want it to, and everybody's tired of hearing it. Generally I just ignore a question like this, but this had a few qualities that made it too good to pass up. Like the assumption that most people have never heard of Chrono Trigger. And you've got to love the ever-enjoyable "best company ever" line. But what makes this letter a real winner is the assumption that my answer will somehow effect the game's release. Please. Everybody knows that Allan's the one keeping it from being released, not me.
Square takes pride in their lame character names. Actually, I think it's just what happens when a bunch of Japanese guys let their fascination of english get the best of them. Kind of like how anything with Kanji is hip now. People could be walking around with a shirt that says "I shag my own mother" for all they know. To Japanese guys, names like "Squall" and "Cloud" just kick ass, and naming a character "Princess Filet" is humor at its finest. To be honest, packing in a cool demo with a game people might otherwise pass over works wonders. Hell, I know I'd never have touched Brave Fencer Musashi if it weren't for the pack in FFVIII demo, and it ended up being one of my all-time favorite games. Just be happy Musashi sounds like an adolescant in the english version. In the Japanese version, he sounds like a dog squeaky toy being repeatedly stomped on by Oprah after one of her viscious binge cycles. Nothing like stickin' it to a beloved television celebrity who provides hope and inspiration to millions, heh heh.
It's an anime thing, you wouldn't understand.
That's exactly why I avoid reading. And avoid pretty much anything that could be considered cultural. I may not be able to quote Sparticus, but damn it, I bet I could recite every line in UHF off the top of my head, baby. Nobody can spit out "lesbian Nazi hookers abducted by space aliens and forced into diet programs" with quite the same skill, speed, and overall style as me. And I'm not proud of that.
Actually, no. Andrew Vestal can't stand the utterly interminable text speed that seems straight out of Faxanadu, I decided to use it as a coaster after falling to the very bottom of Babel Tower for approximately the 10,000th time, and Fritz wants to see it burn in Hell for the multitude of flames he recieved when rating it with a less than perfect score.
Good idea. Let's all write to Eidos and get a fat ass Lara Croft for Tomb Raider 4. That would rock. I'd love to see the sudden and inevitable drop in the series' popularity once people no longer had a huge breasted chick to stare at and they realized it was nothing more than mindless running tasks. I can hear the collective weeping of every horny adolescant male in the country now. Delicious.
Yup.
There's a reason for that. See, first Sony saw Nintendo's successful attempt at surrounding Pokemon products with an invisible cloud of cocaine. Since one of Sony's favorite pasttimes is ripping off Nintendo's ideas, they decided to try their own version of the coke cloud with the Poketstation. Unfortunately, they haven't been able to pull it off as seamlessy as Nintendo, and generating the same aura of addiction requires some major battery power. I am seriously messed up to even think of crap like that.
That's not the whole of it, man. It's actually a stand up starring Pikachu. The entire movie is 4 hours of him in front of a brick wall repeating his own name, with the occasional rimshot. It cost 72 million dollars to make. Closing Comments I'm off to see the Wizard, the wonderful Wizard of Oz. - Drew Cosner |
