Final Fantasy VII was the same way.
Unless I miss my guess, I think they were going more for the design of the "pulse line" Famicom carts, analog to the "pixel art, slightly upward-slanting text on a starfield" design that typified the earliest NES carts.
Just think about how much the costumes in King of Fighters '06 would cost in this day and age. That was, what, 16 per character? In a roster of 36?
That's presuming there's anything below that face value.
Would've been better had you pulled "Jay Bell" out of mothballs. At least dig back to when the team was relevant.
It seems like every time they had to ford a river, Pitt would lose another head coach. Just down the stream, never to be heard from again.
I repeat, "You've obviously never played a Disgaea game, then."
You've obviously never played a Disgaea game, then.
The silliness got relocated to Saint's Row.
Well, watch it for yourself!
"Slightly deceptive." I'm not going to lie when I say I haven't really been big on any of the item-heavy Atelier games (except for Annie, which was more about action optimization than any semblance of RPG gameplay), primarily because my introduction to Gust was through Mana Khemia, which is one of my favorite RPGs of the last generation. The action-manipulation, the mid-attack party-swapping, the time-manipulation in battle... man, that was great. The second one was nowhere as awesome as the first, though.
I'd say it's the FFV-style simply because FFXI-style implies a bipedal mode. (Which would be freakin' awesome.)
Hi, I'm one of those unicorns! And your position is horribly flawed.
No one in China held an American CEO at gunpoint and demanded manufacturing jobs. They went to China because MONEY. Likewise, to say that social programs "don't solve any problems" in the face of decades of falling crime rates is just damned sloppy.
But that's irrelevant to your primary flaw: The inability to perceive the reduction of a culture to a racial stereotype, and then that stereotype being used as a shill in a political campaign, as horrifyingly insulting. Much like my own situation, after you called for my death for the unconscionable crime of frequenting both Kotaku and Jezebel! Do you, honestly, wish for me to perish, or were you just throwing around sensationalized political invective because you're on the internet? My, it's safe on here, isn't it. You can bask in your little hot-box of smallminded hatred, and simply presume as "discredited" any statistic or viewpoint you don't agree with. The world would be perfect, in your little room, if only it weren't for this disgusting liberal culture of "empathy" and "respect."
Also... 148? Cool. I bow to your ability to produce numbers on the internet that we can't confirm or deny! But if you think it contributes to your argument, by all means, man. Oxygen is free. (For now.)
There's a grand stretch of land between Pittsburgh and Philly known to many as "Pennsyltucky." I'm glad I got the hell out when I did.
Holy Moses, he's even got the PCBs for Power Battles and The Power Fighters. (Those green obelisks at the far left.)
Hyadain should sing songs about this guy.
When I saw "Rock of the Dead" on the shelf, my immediate thought was, "What, so it's like Typing of the Dead with a guitar controller?"
Lo and behold... it was Typing of the Dead with a guitar controller. And Neil Patrick Harris. And Rob Zombie.
Best ten bucks (new!) I've spent in a while.
Note to self: "Simply finish 'Tetsuya-Nomura-stylization Ray' to conquer the planet."
Recreate FFXI's "Divine Might" battle in FFXIII-2, and you can have all of my monies. All of them.
That looks more like a laser from The Incredible Machine.
Which is also awesome.
A good editor can make anyone say anything.
"I suppose there's something to be said for... countless other instances of TV news reporters... lying," as one Newt-affiliated hack might interpret your post. Put an intense-sounding bed track under it all, and show a picture of Brokaw in greyscale behind a pile of scary-looking redactions and corrections from newspapers, and you've created a spot to destroy any media you don't agree with.
Stop the benign infractions before they become less than benign.
