I'm so tempted to continue my April 1st parody/trolling of this one guy since he never ceases to find new ways to let people know of his neverending love for Orihime from Bleach.

Especially since his reaction to my use of Baby Daisy images was so full of butthurt it was hilarious.

My friend said he watched every episode of the anime and he still doesn't know why it's called Bleach.

It's because the only people who watch it are white.

Maybe it's because the apparel they wear is clearly influenced by american fashion and it always includes english phrases (white washed).

Or maybe its because the show is so terrible you want to wash it out of your mind using Bleach.

Either way, your friend must have some serious endurance to see it all. I watched the first 40 episodes and gave up when I realized I was putting myself through torture trying to enjoy this crap show. When it takes 20 episodes to get to the real conflict, and then spend 20 introducing a bunch of worthless chracters who only serve as punching bags, there is absolutely no reason to keep watching. I'd rather watch my nails grow.

Good points.

I'll give you all one guess why this movie should be called Gib.

This is the fury-inducing article I've read in a while, made even more so by the fact that the sensible opinions are actually quite sensible. Other than that, the author is a whiny loser who deserves to be kicked out of a helicopter with a noose around him like that guy in Scarface.

Yeah, the guy(s) on that website can get... harsh. Reasonable points, though, from what I skimmed.

I'm thinking something more like "Dead Rising 2 cannot suck." I am (or at least was... until I pried myself off of it about a week ago) completely obsessed with the first game. When the setting for the sequel was announced, I worried a little... what can you do with a hotel/casino? But now I'm not worried at all. The shopping mall was stretched quite a bit (two hardware stores (whose unique items sort of bled all over the North Plaza, being that it was under construction), antique shop, gun store, blade store... for some reason there were traffic cones, paintings and other stuff in the movie theaters and a katana on the awning outside of a cafe).

Now, about that guy's complaints.
-Frank sure isn't weak for me anymore. At level 50 most of his moves can kill zombies with one hit during the day. Hammer Throwing one zombie can take out several.
-"Closed-in" environment... well yeah... you're trapped in a mall...
-Repetitive missions: Valid point
-Stupid AI: very valid point
-The convicts: Easier to kill than it seems. Even without the Real Mega Buster (which is easier to unlock than it sounds--just mundane). They do spawn every midnight except for the last one though, somehow. Blah.
-Otis: I don't have a problem with the repetitive calls so much as how helpless you become when answering them--and getting attacked ends the call and Otis calls back to scold you for hanging up and restart his speech. Ironically, Otis is renowned as being the most talkative character in the game, yet has no actual lines in cutscenes, ever. The closest thing he has to voice acting is in Infinity Mode, and even then I don't think he says any real words.
-Frank can's unarm himself: Yes he can. Up on the D-Pad. Why would you be carrying so many books that you can't carry anything else? Most of them augment other items.

Overall I'd call Dead Rising the easiest Capcom game I've ever played... excluding Phoenix Wright (though some situations there don't even make sense).

The Convicts are the best boss in the whole game, and have, by far, the best music ("Gone Guru" by Lifeseeker), although the whole soundtrack was pretty cool. If they can get music from some of the bands (especially Lifeseeker) in the original to appear in the sequel, I will be a very happy man.

I'm not going even going to pen a complex rant right now and just get right to the point: What the hell is this world coming to?

NintendoExpert89 · « **Reply #5397 on:** April 12, 2009, 11:57:24 AM »

A world where people go on message boards and endlessly link to websites about random stuff that tick them off.

ShadowBrain's posts are beginning to paint a disturbing picture of a Videogame Unibomber formulating plans to bring down the non-game-software-on-game-systems industry.

But for realz, [wtd]'s wrong with a personal walking trainer?

Bawww casual games.

Let me pull a ShadowBrain here and point out this commercial here:

I find it intensely hilarious, yet it's causing a controversy for not being appropriate for kids. The song may have originally had other implications, but its become a joke song over the years. It's simply been modified to be SpongeBob related, because Burger King's advertising firm loves being weird and for that I salute them.
