This really needs a thread, even though it's been mentioned a lot elsewhere.

Here's a brand new trailer.

Seconded. The forced depth of field thing kinda bothers me... a lot.

Well, it looks quite promising to me. I do believe that this title is one exception to my gaming axiom.

Your gaming axiom is the biggest load of Bantha poodoo I've ever heard and shows extreme lack of gaming experience.

Weegee · « **Reply #5 on:** March 25, 2010, 09:37:39 PM »

Yeah, I know. I'm just aware of my relucatnce to expand my gaming repertoire.

My gaming axiom: If it's not first-party, it probably sucks.

No offense, but you are a retard.

That's weak writing.

No way, man; I hilariously instantly followed up a pleasantry with a jarring semi-offensive insult. It was a great sentence.

There are third parties that can stand up to the first parties, but there's a metric buttload of third parties that completely suck. The axiom is at least statistically justified. Certainly on any given Nintendo console, a random Nintendo-developed game is more likely to be good than a random game selected from the entire pool of non-Nintendo games.

Okay, looking how the axiom was actually phrased (and ignoring my brain's loud howls from my math degree background about an "axiom" containing the word probably) I would agree its true. But man. Playing nothing but first-party Nintendo games is like never eating anything but pizza. Pizza is totally awesome, but you will be severely lacking both nutritionally and spiritually.

It'd be even unhealthier with Sony and Microsoft. Especially when you have stuff like Atlus publishing Demon's Souls in the US because of Sony not wanting to do so for whatever reason.

Unless we're not counting first-party-published games developed by other companies as first-party games, which would render Sony and Microsoft basically useless for someone following Weegee's "axiom."

I'm tentatively excited for this game.

Jerking it over your own choice of words is very weak writing.

I would rather hear a mediocre album from a music artist I like than an artsy, critically-praised album by some indie group I've never heard of. I'm aware that my gaming ax motto is a gross, oft-incorrect generalization, but I still stand by it for the reasons stated by CrossEyed.

CrossEyed7 · « **Reply #14 on:** March 26, 2010, 02:23:27 PM »

I presume you'd also rather hear an album that you'd want to listen to more than once.
