I think my favorite part of all of this is that the tank noise is the same noise that plays when you enter a cave or dungeon in the original NES Legend of Zelda.

Has there been any news about the "get flash and/or enable javascript or stop wasting my time" message that was on PS3.com while this was going on?

Does anyone else think this looks like heartless swarming the castle? http://www.fredgambino.co.uk/web_pages/epicmickey/castle01.html [http://www.fredgambino.co.uk/web_pages/epicmickey/castle01.html]

I think my favorite was the game that game packaged with a box of Chex cereal: Chex Quest. Doom, but for kids! Also, it was free with the box, and it got me to buy the cereal. Win, win.

Icing on the cake--because I only get legitimate e-mails from corporations.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH FOOLISHNESS.

I'm not even finished yet, but I love the "...Ate My Neighbors" reference. Nothing like using a squirt gun to kill a giant baby in a shopping mall.

Good to know that the berserk status is sticking around. I guess. It's also funny that they have to specify that it's a 2D RPG. When I see 2D nowadays, I think side-scrolling. But alas, it just means old-school. Can it cost 500 points on WiiWare? I have 500 points that I just don't know what...

I can see it now: WoW becomes illegal, underground servers emerge, charges of WoW trafficking are created, and Sweden trains an elite group of Spartans to hunt down the WoW players. Two weeks later, the Evangelists find something else to hate.

While I agree that FFVII should be higher on the list, I'm thrilled that XII is on there and X isn't. I'll put my blindfold on now, while you all cock your guns.

I think I was most excited the first time a friend and I successfully finished an uber-Tristram run by ourselves in Diablo II. But looking back, I think my most significant was when I stopped using cheats to finish games. As a seven year old with a game-genie, you get pretty used to it. I...

You know...I remember having the same issues running old games with XP that everyone seems to be complaining about with Vista. But lo and behold! There is a compatibility wizard that is supplied with both XP and Vista! Just clicking the "Run in 98" or "Run in XP" box solved 90% of my problems...

"I wanna cast magic missile!" "There's no one to cast it on!" "I wanna cast it on...the darknet."

I feel like it has to be a new IP. Diablo already functions as an online RPG, even if it isn't the same format as a more typical MMORPG. Plus, why release Diablo III, which will most likely have the same ~10 year lifespan that Diablo II has, just to replace it with a not-too-different game...

I want to be optimistic about this and hope that developers will use this concept of "marrying" media to create a new gaming experience of some kind, but I can't help but feel that it's just going to be a shoddy game thrown onto a movie disc. Something like Transformers or Ironman, perhaps...
