As an animation, Bakemonogatari has a simple, clean art style. But the guest illustrations for the series are anything but simple! So, it's great to see that °Tens took on a more complex illustration and made it his own with vector gradients so fine at points it more resembles painting that vectoring. Do have a look at this beautiful wallpaper!

Metal Gear Solid Movie, Epic or Epic Fail?

"Fail. A movie based off a poorly written, under-par storyline cannot succeed at all, in fact it reminds me of another recent movie fitting those requirements, oh yeah! Twilight."

Technically, you didn't specify upon with UT, so that can be applied.


Yes I did I said Unreal Tournament. That means the original UT which was simply named Unreal Tournament.

They are, but both Oni and Deus Ex are backward compatible.


To my knowledge the new PS3s aren't backwards compatible at all and that is why the cost went down."

Sonic's Ulimate Genesis Collection was recently released, which has Sonic 1-3 + Sonic and Knuckles. Oni was also released side by side on the PS2 with PC, both weren't too bad but I prefer the PC one and the same was with Deus Ex. They came out with the PC version first, then released a PS2 version with a new cutscene, though I can't recommend enough how much I prefer the PC controls. Deus Ex Invisible War came out with an Xbox release as well. If you want to get really technical, UT 3 is out for all systems. Just thought I'd add that update to help sort things out.


Ok Sonic I'll give you, as for Oni that's the PS2, not PS3, same with Deus Ex.

UT3 isn't any good anyway, and I never said UT3, I only stated UT2k4 and the original (I know my UT, it's my favorite series of all time)."

I hate to point it out to you but you're ego has made you stupid. Several of these games you've mentioned exist on PS3. Hell go look at metacritic. I'm sure its a far better judge of what classes as steaming piles of putrid human waste.


Riiiiiiiiiight.

Sonic: Genesis + Gamecube were the good ones.
Oni: PC
Battlefield 1942: PC
Unreal Tournament: PC, 2004 was also very good and that's PC too.
Deus Ex: PC
Perfect Dark: N64

Small things that immensely piss you off?

9 months 3 weeks ago

"I walk with a cane now, and what pisses me off heavily is when people stare at it, like they've never seen a damn cane before. What also pisses me off is when people who don't talk to me on a daily or sometimes weekly basis suddenly try to hold conversation with me to ask about what happened, like they really need to know, or like they care, because they don't, because they need to bring meaning to their life now and not take things for grant-it. Then there's the people who say "you're pissing me off" while arguing. Like letting me know I'm upsetting you is going to make me care, because I don't live my life for your comfort, I live according to my needs and wants, and if that makes us clash then so be it. Then there's the people who speak to me with the word should/shouldn't. "Well you should..." No, not at all, because who are you to tell me you know more on how I am to live my life then myself? Then there's the corrupt, and the people who think they can use their positions to get what they want without going through the proper channels. Ohhhh do I love to wreck house with those when I find them out. Then there's the people who think their opinion matters, or that everyone should have an equal say. On discussion boards, fine, but in person, if I'm talking about politics to a biology major, because he asked a question, I don't want to hear his opinion, because it's uneducated. I'm not going to tell him what I think of the science committee or the birds and the trees, so he under no circumstances is allowed to tell me what he thinks of politicians. Let the people who are the experts do their jobs, this is called minding your place. Then there's consumers. They piss me off greatly, because we have things that are so horrible, quality wise, that are insanely popular. Final Fantasy, Twilight, and the iPod are just a few of these things to name. Mostly it's the underage kids begging their parents, the drunk college students who don't know anything and just took a leak in both of the dorms elevators tonight (oh yeah and I can't use steps with the cane, still don't work too well), and the incredibly stupid in general. Then there's the people who think it's all about them in life, and they love to both remind of this and talk about it. I totally have no time for people like this at all, no time to waste. So yeah, there's a lot of things I don't find comfort in in life, but that's just the way it is."

The PS3 has games.

But I find that playstation 3 will have its moment of glory


It's been three years buddy, the writing is on the wall.

Let's notice something about this conversation ok? It's been 3 years since the new gens, and all the PS3 supporters say "when it is released" or "waiting" or "hopefully". Maybe you guys can see in these statements what I see, and to this I answer with a simple word: Seriously? Seriously guys, you've been waiting and waiting and waiting and have gotten nothing, are getting nothing now, and will get nothing. Admission of reality is a big problem in this world, but it helps with the healing process, so I say to you all that unless you bought a PS3 because you love Blue-Ray to death, you wasted your money. Now I'm not one to say "I told you so" or any of that smarmy crap, but let's face it, you blew your money, and disagree with this all you want to, you all come off to me right now as trying to fabricate an illusion that you didn't waste it away to save yourself from the pain of admitting that you did."

You know I never expected this game to be released on XBox 360, truth be told im a bit disappointed about this.


Because even SquareEnix, as blind as they are, are finally starting to realize that the end is near for Sony, and that they screwed up royally with the PS 3, so much that there's little profits to be made.


Grave
Xbox gots it's hands on tons of good RPG games already give PS3 a break...


What? I'm pretty sure this goes against basically every rule on how markets and competition is supposed to work, so unless Microsoft took suicide pills and suddenly openly welcome massive debts and short-sales, no company is going to give them a break.


Grave
So far Im liking the main character the info said that the main character from Xi and versus Xi will make a cameo appearance.


Because cameo appearances to make the fanboys go wild is one of the many ploys a flat, aired-out company like SquareEnix tries to draw as much money as possible from its fanboys."

For me, Harry potter is better than Twilight series...


While I agree with your statement, better in no way means good. I have an overcooked burger and an undercooked burger for example. The overcooked one is better, because it's actually not dangerous to my health like a very pink undercooked one, but that doesn't mean biting into rock solid crispy crust from the overcook is very pleasing.


Zafir
Not a fan of either Twilight or Harry Potter, truth be told. Twilight completely killed the original type of vampire that everyone loved. Vampires under no circumstances do NOT sparkly in the sun, they burn...


You sir show great promise intelligence wise.


Izzy
As for twilight, it takes a new twist on things


Right, because instead of a well thought-out intellectual matching of pen and paper, we going to give the appearance that these books' genesis were back when the author was struggling to complete her undergraduate at a community college no one has ever heard of. So if by twist, you means the poor writing as opposed to the commonality of actual well thought out pieces of literature, then yes, what a twist it is.


Sekai
Twilight is just a horribly over rated book. Its a good book for a casual read, though I would not go praising it in such a way fans do. I will give Stephanie Myer one point for making a main character who is male and is really good looking who in actuality is really a bastard. Though she ruined that in the end of the whole ride. I honestly don't care for twilight it's really boring in my opinion. There wasn't anything about it that really jumped out at me. It got me interested the first half but then the rest I had trouble reading it was boring. Bella is too stupid I hate having to be in her mind while reading the book cause I could just punch her. Way too cheesy to be a good romance book. The action in it? Please there hardly is any. It's just a fad and I can't wait for it to end. It might have been a decent book but the fandom has ruined it. I don't believe those people who say twilight is so original for the teen genre series! I say bull. It's just like any other tween book. The characters and all. You could pick up any teen book and find characters similar. Harry Potter is still better. At least it created a world that I can't predict what will happen next.

Why did you like Code Geass

9 months 3 weeks ago

"You are assuming I liked Code Geass. First off, there's too many recap episodes, and I'd like to point it out that when the number of recap episodes exceeds one, the series losses some respect from me. Second, it's Clamp, which makes me very cautious at first because the only thing I would ever consider re-watching out of their works is Chobits, and even that was just good, not excellent. Third, the story stinks of of the egotistical nature of the writers, with a huge "look at us, we're Japan, we're the best in the world" attitude. I can do without the unintelligent (in the writers not the entire Japanese population) trying to flaunt a fallacy in stating they think they are the best. Illusions only last for so long. Fourth, the anti-America, anti-United Kingdom overtones are enough to make me sick in my stomach. Envy is a deadly sin for a reason. Now I'm not saying we're better then the Japanese, but I'm saying this putrid nationalism that is flaunted to the point of propaganda is something that takes over the entire series and never really lets go. Sure it dies down a little more in the later part of the series, but it's only because it's drilled into the mind of the viewer in the opening thirteen to seventeen episodes. Clamp must know that you can only beat a dead horse for so long, surprising how they show a sign of wisdom outside of belittling their audience all the time. You see Clamp's failures, now culminating with their latest atrocity, Code Geass, only helps solidify a few things, such as Clamp's consistent assumption that it's audience is perpetually stupid, as well as easy to deceive, which is not the qualities of authors I want to support. Clamp should have send in their letter of resignation and retirement a long long time ago, for it is heavily overdue."

but I think human waste is a wee bit extreme. ...well maybe not for X-2


It's not extreme when describing a company that hasn't put out anything good in almost ten years. Square Enix is just like Lucas Arts and the Sonic Team, companies milking their past glory in an attempt to keep a steady inflow of money by capitalizing on the consumers who don't know better (whether that's age or just obliviousness it doesn't matter) or who are sentimentally trying to keep the series alive hoping it can improve to its former days of glory. We're all guilty of this sentimentalism somewhere along the line, even me (see my purchase of Soul Calibur 4 as sentimental in hoping the series can go back to when it was good, i.e. SC 1+2)."

Soul Calibur 4

"You know I'm very disappointed in Soul Calibur 4. The character creation is great, really top notch, and the skill system is awesome; however online play is very disappointing as the real flaws of the characters some out, with the unbalanced fighting system having Zazamel and Ashteroth being so over-powered it ruins online play because of all the cheap players online. Then there's the fact that the single player storyline and arcade are grind-tasticly boring. The Tower presents a challenge but it gets very dull very quickly. I'm giving up hope on fighting games, might as well go back to SF 2 HD Remix."
