I noticed you reviewed Rescue: The Beagles sometime ago and thought you might enjoy this interview I did with him (it's pretty in depth): http://quote-un-quote.tumblr.c...

One thing I can almost 100% trust Nintendo not to mess up are its handhelds.

I hear some devs already have/had dev kits and they expect to demo it with games at E3.

With a release window of 'By March 2011' we shouldn't have long to wait at all.

They've certainly jumped on the fad but with style.

3D with no glasses? Count me in...

You're right about the training process and this works seamlessly with the fact that the game itself is very accessible. It encourages mucking about with the combo system and really eases you into getting better via Alfheims and certain angel encounters (Glorious and Gracious springs to mind). Hard mode really forces you to put into practice things your brain sort of figured you could do/try subconsciously but didn't have the heart to try and Non-stop 8 Climax mode is just a game changer again.

So much to do in this. I haven't even unlocked stuff like Angel Slayer mode or done platinums on all the stages in normal or hard. So much stuff to do before I finally put it down.

You also won't be disappointed in the futurepress guide. It truly does rock.

If you were to break Bayonetta down into 50 bullet points, I would hate everyone of them. Somehow, though, they are just combined in the most ridiculous way and the sum is exponentially better than the individual parts. I actually played through the game on Normal, Hard and Infinite Climax mode and I had not finished a Ninja Gaiden or Devil May Cry game previously.

I credit the success of Bayonetta to its excellent training process. It rolls out new moves in such a intuitive manner that you cannot help but get better at the game. I was never once tempted to button mash.

Now, after beating the game 3 times, I am going to go out and get the guide for it? This game is like crack cocaine.

I agree completely. Definite GOTY contender for sure. So happy that the game delivered on everything I hoped it would from when Hideki Kamiya first showed it off at E3.

"Happy" is definitely the right word for it. I don't get how anyone can actually play this game and not grin from ear-to-ear once you actually accomplish a well-orchestrated fight sequence. Or, even just by using the taunts. Lol.

Few games make me as happy as Bayonetta, and that video was a delight!

That probably sounds like a silly statement, but if you've played Bayonetta, you know how appropriate the term "happy" is.

Bayonetta was a fantastic way to start my gaming year. Easily a a game of the year contender in my books.
I loved that dance at the end!

Nothing serious. It just became too 'heavy' for my requirements for SKG. Too many plugins to update, regular wordpress security updates etc.

And, tumblr is very basic in terms of posting options so it doesn't encourage too many complicated things. Makes it easier to just focus on getting content out there :-).

Howcome you're leaving wordpress? Just out of curiosity....

Parthon — Fri, 15 Jan 2010 00:08:17 -0000

Wow, other people that remember this game, Awesome!

I played for about 3-4 months when the game was at it's peak, and a bit later just before the end. I can't even remember my in-game name, but it's likely to have been Parthon. Even though I was a City-born, I spent most of my time in the dream world, mainly mastering the commonly ignored shaping abilities of conjuration and evocation.

I still remember this game as having the most engaging storylines backed up by solid gameplay. The two worlds were great, even just for a change of pace from either one. The only downside was the lack of players.

It's definately a game that deserves to be recreated anew. Is there anything happening with that?

Thank you for the sound critique. Me and my neighbor were just setting up to do some research about this. I am very glad to see such great info being shared freely out there.

Re: PRO EVOLUTION SOCCER 2010!

Niyi — Wed, 07 Oct 2009 18:14:37 -0000

I was talking about fifa 2009 and after actually and that's what they always seem to say about the Fifa vs Pes...don't believe the hype.Played the fifa 2009 and 2010, they're the games I'm bashing in the post. And besides, a lot of those posts are probably made by angry Pes lovers who expected more, like my brother for instance who said the same thing. But he's beginning 2 sing a different tune now that he's played both versions for a while now. As a soccer fan, the new fifa games kinda suck. So...to answer ur question Wale: N...O...NO, i certainly don't agree!

Re: PRO EVOLUTION SOCCER 2010!

Wale — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 07:11:34 -0000

From what I hear, as at fifa2009, fifa has changed completely and now out-pes-es pes!

The critical consensus now is that fifa has overtaken pes. Do u agree?

Hey Yegwa, I was just wondering if you have any experience in web design in terms of layout. Personally, I try to stay on the programming end of things. My layout and design skills aren't horrible but I don't feel it is my forte.

We will be needing a web site, for community purposes as well as web administration of the game. I was wondering if you have this talent and might be willing to work on it?

Hey Doug! It has been long. Give me a shout sometime, if you want, I'm on AIM omgwtfclear. Anyone here who wants to chat feel free.

Yegwa, thanks for posting this, btw. XR deserves to be remembered.

Hi Zanfib!

Thanks for the kind words. I'm glad people still remember Crossroads, and it's funny seeing all that story bible stuff since, of course, I wrote it... nice to know someone still enjoys it. Just curious - you said "I'll repost this and see how long it takes to get a cease and desist order." Did you ever get such a letter in the past? I honestly don't know if Jaleco still exists in any meaningful form or if they care.

Take care!
Keith

Hi Clear, doubt you would remember me (seeing as I cannot for the life of me remember what name my character went under), but you were on of the people that showed me around the dream world and showed me the ropes.

So nice to see that I am not the only person that remembered the game and still did searches for it.

Of all the times to google Crossroads. Nice to see it hasn't been forgotten :D. I still miss that game. Nice to see some old faces here, too.

Keith, if you're still reading the comments section, you guys did a fantastic job with XR, thank you so much. It was a great experience.
