The idea that these are ideal family games because they're the kind kids can understand or the only ones they have a shot of winning are untrue and doing kids a major disservice. Kids are way quicker than people give them credit for, especially when it's about something that interests them...

I'm sure they would get a small cut of every card sold - Steam gets bigger exposure and more options for people to spend money, the store gets a small cut of the amount. Seems fair to me.

...I'm now imagining a Trigun-esque situation with insurance girls following around the Avengers.

I just want you guys to know that by sheer supreme irony, that episode went up the day after I ordered a Zune on clearance from Microsoft. Your comedic timing is king.

Never say never. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interactive_movie] Also, I think people are really generalizing/oversimplifying things here - obviously this is not a mode that can or should be in every game, or even in every genre. However, there are games that it would definitely be a good...

Wasn't this pretty much in LA Noire, where it was praised/generally ignored depending on who you talked to?

Heh, I agree with this. Also, a wedding reception is a GREAT excuse to get all of our friends and family to come visit us and party. Also, there is HUGE societal pressure to get married. Whether or not that is good is a different debate, but it does get super annoying when people keep...

Poor font choices always bother me. Why settle for pretty but unreadable, when you can have both? I'm waiting for the day when an 'edgy' rpg uses Papyrus as a subtitle font and I have an excuse to go rampaging through the city. (Protip: Almost nobody uses Egyptian fonts properly. Papryus...

Thank you for letting me turn off the rotating stuff! Minor bug: I keep trying to set background animation to 'No' but every time I go back to that page, it's set back to 'Yes.' Also, a request: I used to catch up on videos on lunch at work from my phone, but after the site design, it's...

Very much this for me as well. Amplitude is the one that throws people off for me as well, heh.

I had a friend request waiting for me when I finished Journey, and a note saying that I'd been the best companion they'd had! It was REALLY touching to see that after our adventures together, even if we never play anything together again. Playing that game, I found myself just referring to...

A valid point of view, and agreed! Thanks for the civil discourse. :)

It wouldn't have gotten as much flak simply because it wouldn't have sold as many copies. My point is that Square already HAS a vehicle for 'new genre' Final Fantasy games, so them complaining that the core series has no way to innovate (which is untrue) is just silly in my opinion.

Actually, I'd like to point out that Square does this all the time with its non-core Final Fantasy games (ie Tactics, Dissidia, etc), with mixed reception. I'd also like to point out that they have done this exact thing before with 11, which was an MMO, and still got less flak than 13 did...

I liked FF13 once it actually got to the point of being a GAME. It felt like a long boring dragged out tutorial for a good many chapters. Add in Chapter 7 almost making me stop playing because I couldn't stand to hear Hope whine ONE MORE TIME and nothing happening at all in the story, and you...
