Apart from the penmanship, this is a great read; not every comics needs to be a joke-filled strip. It's contemplative and beautiful; keep it that way! (And do something about these letters ;) )

I don't care about what's popular and what's not, I was only wondering why I just can't play it. Kind of a strange feeling not being able to play past the first level of a Mario game. I love this series (well, Sunshine doesn't count, does it?). It's like writing a thesis on Shakespeare's...

Ok, this stupid question has been bugging me for a few... years, now. Here goes: am I the only person in the universe who just can't play Mario Galaxy? It's one of the most critically acclaimed game in the series, each and every gamer I have talked to loved it, and I just can't get into it...

Basically said the same thing on these very boards a while back ( http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/9.162341-Is-Bioware-losing-its-magic?page=1 ) So yeah, needless to say, I wholeheartedly agree. Voice acting isn't worth it.

Disappointed... The Adèle Blanc-Sec comics usually focus on the mysteries of Paris. It's got a lot of goofy elements (demons, occult conspiracies - did you know that the Titanic sunk because Adèle was supposed to be on it?), but it's dark, weird, and urban. Not pterodactyls-and-pyramids. Besson...

You make a perfectly good point; your rebuttal of the whole "lulz been there saw that" attitude is astute - and there you go and spoil it all by saying something like "Avatar really is original!". No. It's not. You're really playing devil's advocate, here. I've rarely felt more embarrassed...

Hear, hear. Well put, good sir. Well put.

Well, I guess you don't really like (Bioware) RPGs then. When you really, really like/admire a developper, and when said developper releases 1 game a year (and that's on good years), you can't say "I don't have the time". You make the time ;)

I suppose you could give Baten Keitos a try... If you can find it.

The Chronicles of Riddick. Other than that, you have to go back to the "Disney games that didn't suck" era: Aladdin, The Lion King... That's about it.

It's not that it's bad, really... The part with the big dog got a laugh :) I think it's just that the format demands one (good) gag every two seconds, and Game Dogs doesn't deliver in that particular department. It's just too slow. (And the high-pitch-voiced sword-wielding dog is annoying...

Oh sh*t. Bartlet is in this game? Damn. I knew I recognized that voice. Arg. I have to play the US version... The French one will suck whoever is in it now. :p Well, best trailer ever status confirmed ;) Thanks for the answer.

Watched the trailer. Does anybody know who did the voiceover? I'm sure I know this actor, but I can't put a name on his voice :p (Just in case it's some ME1's character voice, don't flame me: I didn't play the US version :) ) Best trailer ever, btw. BEST. EVER.

Actually, that's an excellent point. Some games have aged well. I can't replay Ocarina of Time now, but I sure can give BG and Fallout another go - anytime. I guess the bottom line is: if you can't do a proper "reimagining" of Baldur's Gate (one where you can explore most houses, where maps are...

Yeah, these dialogues really are great, and you can find them in most of their games (BG, KotOR, DA...). That's why I was a little sad to see that they had not included them in Mass Effect. Hope ME2 has party banter! *crosses fingers*
