Pretty sure that's been the case with nintendo since... forever. People would buy a tin can with some lint inside it if it had Nintendo written on the side.

I already passed on this game, glad to see it's not worth my time. I actually really enjoyed The Force Unleashed, and even bought the DLC. But then Lucasarts released that "Sith Edition" with exclusive content, which was just a massive middle-finger to the fans who had supported the game in...

The ABC in Australia actually did an interesting story on Christianity in Japan, how they have to hide their faith and pretend to be Buddhist, even today. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xkw7UeX_p74

Japanese people already live with modular furniture. Apartment rooms are often multi-purpose, with tables that fold up and go into a closet, to be replaced with a folding futon. They have a lot of empty space in them because Japanese rooms come built-in with closets for the furniture. And given...

So I passed. Glad to see that I didn't miss anything, aside from an experience akin to punching myself in...

It's always a pleasure to read something from someone who "gets it". I remember when I lived at home, my dad would be annoyed that I got annoyed or angry when playing a game; he'd say, well, "it's just a game". Then go and get annoyed or angry when his favourite sports team made a mistake...
