  1. I bought it on sale because I figured I'd had five bucks worth of fun reading the patch notes. How do you convince yourself a game in that state is shippable unless you're guaranteed sales no matter how awful it is? Which... okay, I can't blamne preorders SOLELY for that, because I knew people that bought FF13 knowing how bad it was. They admitted it was bad and they wouldn't like it, "but it's Final Fantasy so I have to play it."
  2. Nope. It's good for developers that get a great game on store shelves, since they're no longer competing with high-budget crap. Preorders exist only to protect bad games from informed customers. Paying for a game you know nothing about is the height of folly.
  3. Absolutely! I'm still waiting for the 1:1 scale kit.
  4. I don't know if it's been said or not, but Signs was a godawful terrible flick. Because neither godawful nor terrible covers the shee atrocity by itself. I caught it end-of-run at a dollar movie, and thought I overpaid. Shyamalama owes me two hours of my life back.
  5. Ah, thanks for reminding me! It's been a while since I've watched Nanoha. I should sit down with both series and marathon 'em.
  6. Well, we know humanity and zentradi share a LOT of genes, so maybe the blue hair gene is just SUPER recessive! ... Or he grew up in a nuclear waste storage facility.
  7. God, not this again... Aviation rage in 5 seconds.
  8. Franchise is still appropriate as there was a toy line and books and comics and all that other related merch. Certainly, it's not an ANIMATION franchise, but it is still a franchise.
  9. My understanding is little robot combines with the jet to form the big robot Saber, and then Saber combines with the TREAD V-Star to form the bigger robot Big Volfogg Star Saber. As opposed to all three units forming a single robot from the get-go. Which would make more sense. And yeah, then Star Saber puts Victory Leo on to form God Saber EX-Destiny Victory Saber.
  10. You know, looking at the pics of OG Space Brick... If the powerup version gets a Masterpiece, I may bite the bullet. Even in the original clown colors. Because that shiznit is awesome. (Yes, I know it's a second Transformer that turns into a jetpack and high-heels for Space Brick. It still looks awesome.)
  11. Let me rephrase: I'd like to probe her I-field with my beam saber, if you know what I mean. Or maybe I'd like to overload her barrier and destroy Ontario, if you get my drift.
  12. God, I WISH I owned it. I played it in a museum. No, really. Incidentally, a lot of people DIDN'T play for free. There were change machines that gave tokens out, as well as quiz machines that were free to use and gave tokens out if you answered the questions right. MOST people were putting money into change machines, and I was running around slamming the trivia machines like a boss. It's not even that I was a game nerd. I WAS, but that's irrelevant. The quiz machine questions were all pulled from the exhibit writeups and games. You could EASILY make a run through the place, read the displays, and then spend forever hitting quiz machines, answering questions, and getting tokens.
  13. Space Brick needs to be recast as an Autobot Seeker mold. A whole RAINBOW of Space Bricks would be amazing. And we could ALL find a color scheme that Prime's cerebro-circuit-damaged cousin looked good in.
  14. So you're saying wait for the inevitable repaint? Gotcha.
  15. I played it for free, and it was well worth every penny. No, really, I did.
  16. The key words are "acting stupid" Yes, I'm aware I include myself in this classification.
  17. It didn't just spin in circles, it rocked back and forth and tilted side-to-side too. It actually makes for a fairly decent, if not totally realistic, effect and adds a good bit to the fun of the game. But so does the 3D display, so... tradeoffs.
  18. And claiming they "own the rights" and suing anyone that looks at them funny. Even before they filed the trademark.
  19. Well, go play Galaxy Force and Super Hang-On while you wait. Maybe even Space Harrier.
