Recently good ol' sideways Santa has made a bid for power in the new Ghost Rider by following him out of hell and taking posession of 666 people who died at the same momment. As GR kills 'em, Satan gets his powers focused into fewer hosts until 1 is left and it's hell on earth.

Yep, talk and enact revenge as the spirit of vengence. But mostly talk.

I don't know... as psyched as I am for the game I realize that this is probably one of the last games I'll be seriously psyched about. That said, knowing too many spoilers could ruin the surprise, and since I'm weak I know I'll watch the trailer...

I INVOKE THE POWER OF APATHY!!!

Edit:...

...It's totally not working.
Dr. Wiley has surrendered. Mega Man has saved the planet from destruction. But will it last!!!

The only problem with that is I cherish this feeling of exitement for a game, especially nowadays since it's so rare since games theses days, y'know, suck.

Well, I just went down and got my reserved copy of FF12+Ashe poster (honestly, I was hoping for Balthier or Fran, but hey, it's a free poster and my side of the room needs spicing up).

...now to resist playing it until after midterms.

Nnngh. Nnnnnnngh. Grah! *poof, gone*

I'm gonna credit the current generation from games, at least from the Nintendo perspective(someone else can summarize Sony or Microsoft). Innovation has always been there, but something else has gone missing: balance. If you want truely good games that both are original and balanced, you should check some random games from the snes era. There's some great games back then that could totally kick butt at both of those things. Modern day games that I like manage to include some awesome things, but neglect the step where those things get balanced in.

Examples?

MKDS(powersliding, 2 or 3 viable freaking karts!), SSBM(yes damn you, I insist SSB was more balanced), MMZX(not nintendo, but hell I'd throw in Street fighter series games in too if they were on a Nintendo system; iow, Capcom is pretty much doin' the same thing), Kirby(look at the freakin' gba games, don't fucking cross the wires you newbs). I don't even think it has anything to do with the amount of content put in so much as a complete lack of a balancing phase. Its almost as if to compete with Sony, Nintendo has cut out any balance testing they do on games, and I think that was important. Sure you could say that maybe it restricted developers or something, but still...

Blah, I'm gonna be pissed if the same thing happens to Brawl, if thats not how it is then I pretty much will love it indefinately, so I'm ok with knowing in advance. Now I have an urge to play SSB>.>.

horrendously short summarizing Sony:
Sony is about finding afew popular titles, and pumping out endless sequels. Examples would be Final Fantasy (and various universe spin-offs) and GTA (Even Sony cant screw this series up).


Somewhat longer Microsoft summary:
Most noticeably, the XBox focuses on the BOOM HEADSHOT! kill/frag freak. Specifically ones that enjoy the thought of superiority over another human...in Halo.



EDIT:I lied, the Microsoft one is shorter than the Sony one.

Wii's first year Virtual Console lineup here.

I must say, I'm impressed with the evil in Nintendo's methodical "slow-drip" distrubution of its recycled drugs. Why give everyone Super Metroid all at once when you can just as easily(And overall, more profitably) wean them for a few months? Not to say that there aren't some awesome titles there. Ahh, Gunstar Heroes...

LOAD DAM YOU! Dammit 1up is in refusal!


EDIT:Never mind, and I must say I am disappointed...and a N64 game still isnt worth $10, maybe the original smash and the Rare games, but not 99%
