"Quick, what movie is this from?" = not a question about space. Hello, we've had missions to Mars and Saturn in this century alone?! Jupiter probes! Tempel 1 flyby! Things that actually happened!

Agreed, because while roaming through something like inFamous, I was given the option to either help a guy get some precious Blast Shards out from a locker, or kill him and take them for myself. I would've just waited till he left and stolen the shards without killing him. Or, you could help...

I'm going to have to stop you right there, because the world's heard that one before.

Also not so much of a boss fight, but once in GTAIV I had evaded the cops long enough to get back down to a 1-star level, and at that point I was in the red and ridiculously close to death. A pair of cops were still chasing after me on foot. You know those films where someone who is being...

Maybe, but what's to say our ability to think isn't something that's tied to our chromosomal lineage?

How can you be part-"part-machine"? You're either a cyborg or you aren't! :)

Purely genetics. I don't think there's anything besides genetics that separates us from any other creature. Sure, we make extensive use of tools; sure, we're the only species to have demonstrably ended another species; sure, our balance systems are incredible considering we walk bipedally and...

They're cartoons if you define "cartoons" as "2D animation." "Anime" in the West implies it's of Japanese origin; it's very hard to pin down any other defining trait that applies to all Japanese animation. The "childish" connotation of "cartoon" is probably what upsets some people.

It's not just deviating from books. Games like , Dissidia: Final Fantasy, and Super Mario (Insert Noun Here) are deviants from the originals in such significant ways, why not have a few writers and artists play around with a new IP? EDIT: For some reason my first comment wasn't visible; sorry...

To me the important part of this article was pointing out that deviating so far from the source material makes it a wonder why there aren't more IPs being created. Most recently, in the ZP Castlevania: LoS video, Yahtzee points out that most of the game doesn't involve being in a castle, or...

I'm in the same boat. I don't mind anime, but I don't think we need another anime-inspired hybrid style.

"August the Fourth. 403rd Day. Tried to get Amber to go out on a date. She said she was busy. Tried making a pass at Jean but she just laughed. Resisting urge to append my Google searches of celebrities with 'nude' tonight."

Yeah I kinda clicked on this thread expecting someone to break down that they finally got some action after posting 10,000 entries over the course of 2 years and was chronicling every minute of "The Great Adventure To Get Some"... Sorry about that. It'd be an interesting thread though.

I do. Mostly for the GAMETRADERS ROBINA. (SSBB review)
