Oh lord, I am preposterously afraid of heights and I played that at my friend's place. He has a projector, so the character was roughly the same size as I am in real life, so I was about to soil myself every time the character I controlled leapt over an edge. It was scary for two or so hours before I got used to it.

... I don't know... there's no blood flying on the screen... no entrails on the ground...

Ahem.

Perhaps if I tried to play the game I could find it fun too...

I just wish they hadn't gone the lazy way out and made it a first-person perspective game. A third-person view would provide so much better control.

I liked 1st-person view, it made the feeling of jumping over (or sliding beneath) stuff that much better

Copypasta'd from a gamefaqs thread...

"Reyvateil control. Stripping control. Song magic control. Diving control. Everything is monitored, and kept under control. Nakedness has changed. The age of the clothed has become the age of the nude. All in the name of fanservice for the masses. And he who controls the stripping, controls history. Nakedness has changed. When the stripping is under total control, nudity... becomes routine."

I need to ask: is there nudity on AT3?

Gfaqs's quote seems to point that way...

Partial nudity, and suggestiveness going up the wazoo. The most I've seen so far are the gals in their undies.

Basically everyone blasts off layers of clothing as they fight and move towards their finishing moves, towards the end they'd be wearing little more than a few ribbons.
The mind transcends the body.
It's also a little cold because of that.
Please get it a blanket.

I wish I could read your mind,
I can barely read mine.

"Skynet begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, August 29th. At 2:15, it begins rolling up characters."

[spoiler]
"Just what do you think the moon up in the sky is? Everyone sees that big, round shiny thing and thinks there must be something round up there, right? That's just silly. The truth is much more awesome than that. You can almost never see the real Moon, and its appearance is death to humans. You can only see the Moon when it's reflected in things. And the things it reflects in, like water or glass, can all be broken, right? Since the moon you see in the sky is just being reflected in the heavens, if you tear open the heavens it's easy to break it~"
-Ibuki Suika, on overkill

To sumbolaion diakoneto moi, basilisk ouranionon.

There is no higher price than 'free'.

Got it yesterday! Unfortunately I have very limited time as I'm writing my bachelor's thesis at the moment, so I've just played for half an hour so far...

Checked out L.A. Noire.

Not bad, really. Nice feel, they certainly have the atmosphere pretty close.

For some reason my personal accuracy always goes WAY up whenever I lose my hat. I call it my Hat Rage.

All the above statements are true in some sense, false in some sense, meaningless in some sense, true and false in some sense, true and meaningless in some sense, false and meaningless in somesense, and true and false and meaningless in some sense.

I got the Light of Hope ending in Samurai Dou 4.

[spoiler]After getting three different factions to realize that the real bad guy is the local lord, going with a foreign girl to have her petition the dismissal of cruel and unusual punishment, getting arrested for it, surviving torture at the hand of the local lord's hot but sadistic three daughters, fighting them in nothing but my underwear, being rescued while still fighting in my underwear, beating the crap out of them, preventing the public execution of said foreign girl, dunking the local lord in boiling water (that was the execution method... he tied someone up and lowered that someone into boiling water like fondue. He turned red afterwards), watching him survive and run away, running after him, fighting his personal ninja squad, realizing he'd made it aboard the foreigners' black ship, ziplining to it with my sheathed sword (in the process, accidentally firing a cannonball into a boiler) and dueling him for the third time, I got to watch him try to throw his sword at me, fail, pull a gun on me, get shaken up by the ship's rocking, be impaled by his own sword (which the protagonist unerringly throws into his heart), watching him stumble into the gunpowder hold, and watching the ship explode from afar. The foreign girl assumes the protagonist is dead, one of the guys mention that's probably not the case because he's awesome, roll credits, cue another regular day at the city's port with some jerk harassing a woman, protagonist pimp-slaps him straight, cue foreign girl shockedly and happily running towards him.[/spoiler]

BEST. ENDING. EVER.

After some serious Xbox Live problems, I've finally downloaded Platinum for BBCS.


I can kick Midge's ass when he's using Tager. He's completed 70% of Tager's challenges (and he's recompleted 50% of them after the 1.03 update). I just spam aerial combos, opening up with 6C. She just hits so fast that he can't get a Sledge Hammer off.

And she has the single funniest victory animation ever.
