Thanks for the tip, man. And here it comes, gamers and... gamers! The Premise! (very long and contains spoilers involving Gearhead and Smarts that the player won't know at this point in the game) The year is 2300 A.D., and the world is ruled by the Terran Federation. Robots are expensive...

We had already decided on third-person. You heard wrong. (I would put a happy emoticon here to offset the harshness, but I'm far too awesome for that) Basically, everything you said is already in the design, except for some details in movement, and only you have magnetic powers.

PANZER DRAGOON IS MY GOD

Well, hopefully this will be kept alive until tomorrow. By then, I'll write y'all a full little pitch and have some more details for you. By the way, we call ourselves Action Squid Studios. ACTION SQUUUUUID!

We don't have a name yet, but theoretically it'll go out on the 360, PC, and PS3. It'll be toward whatever gaming crowd misses games like Jak and Daxter or Metal Arms: Glitch in the System. Here's a history of ol' Elektroschtein, for you to get a better idea of him. It also gives you an idea...

That's exactly like what we're doing. I'll give you the basic rundown of the core gameplay (keep in mind that it's a very light-hearted game) - You are Erik von Elektroschtein, a mad scientist who, in a lab accident, had his consciousness sucked into his latest invention, the Magnetosphere...

So, I'm at a camp for budding game designers this week. Me and my team are working on a pitch for industry professionals on our game idea, an action-platformer with a rather unique game mechanic. So, before I typed up my whole prototype pitch to you guys, I just want to know whether this falls...

I appreciate that joke. I really do. But it hurts... the truth hurts...

That's because you're downloading them into the temp folder. If you're a sarcastic windows-hater, like you seem to be, it's not just Vista. Same thing on XP. And it's not a problem, it's actually a useful feature to keep crap from piling up in your system. If you're really having this problem...

I treat mine like shit, it works like a charm.

Yeah, I played Diablo 2 for the first time a couple weeks ago. It would be like a half-ripoff.

In Dead Space, the gauge on your back is the health bar. Maybe you could try listening to the voice-over next time.

Well played, sir.

I agree with you totally. But of course there will be some obvious black and white choices, but they should be rare compared the gray areas. Blowing up one of the largest settlements in the game with a nuclear blast is obviously a rather once-in-a-lifetime choice.

I'm not.
