Looks like an awesome game. Too bad I have neither a PS3 nor an XBOX 360.

I so badly want to see how this would fare on 4chan or something.

So, anybody making it to PAX this year? On Saturday? For most of the day, or maybe just from the early afternoon on? Because I'll be there as Tim from Braid, if I can figure out what kind of pants he wears.

Am I the only one that keeps hearing that line in the song on City Escape in Sonic Adventure 2 as "I know with sunblock that I'll make it through"?

I mean, I know what the line actually is, but I intentionally hear it as that because it's funnier.

I always heard the first lines as "Rolling around in this rio town, got no more to go, gotta fight for my waiting room..." but I was at least six, so of course I heard it differently.

Also, "Got no other options..." was:
"Got no more hiratchkeys..."

I actually don't think I had any problems interpreting that song.

I think Sonic Adventure 2: Battle was the last sonic game I enjoyed playing.

If that's true, I am disappoint.

Those claims are vague, baseless, and sensationalistic. In other words,

they di'int.

Well, in their hypothetical defense, there's a difference between coming up with the general mechanics for a game and actually making a plot, characters, setting, and overall programming for a game. There's having an idea, and then there's putting it into action--at least, that's the defense I hope will work if I ever get pestered for writing books based on other people's ideas...

I was referring mostly to that part about the supposed inspiration for Pikmin being a marketing ploy. Like, that just seems... disappointing.

The only part that makes me doubt that is that I don't think Miyamoto coming up with the idea in said fashion was a major selling point. Outside of gamers who habitually read dev interviews, I'm not sure "marketing ploy" is the right way to consider it.
