Dat schoolgirl outfit lol, gotta have it in ANYTHING Japanese game.
The fuck is Nui gulumur though?

Awesome trailer though the last part with the train cracked me up. Really liking the humor in this.

Nuigurumâ Z is an upcoming b-movie in Japan that takes extreme and absurd directions and fills it with various low levels of humour, various references for nerds, a talking stuffed animal, and zombies and nerds being killed. Also an excuse to dress people in those absurd and exaggerated costumes some create purely for attention.
Superhero, zombies, immature humour, of course it works with this spin-off of Ninja Gaiden. It's would be like having the Toxic Avenger as a costume for Splatterhouse if they ever did that.

One of the trailers for the movie itself, should be good if you like killer-b movies and highly referenced based on a specific niche culture.

DmC all over again.

I say there is a difference. While DmC did give less options, for the vast majority of people it did still feel like it was part of the same series and connected. This looks quite different in terms of game play and focus of game mechanics and might have been better had they done an Onimusha to Devil May Cry rather than simply making this a spin-off.

Of course what do I know, my favourite Ninja Gaiden title is Ninja Gaiden Shadow and that didn't play like the NES titles as it was originally a Shadow of the Ninja title in development.

Well I watched that trailer and I was like "meh, it looks like a very bad Borderlands come zombie, action game mash up" until Might 9 showed up. Was that a Street Fighter II inspired car smash up bonus round?

Might keep an eye on this.

Cheers Grief.

So I've been loving Crusader Kings II and I just started eyeing the DLC. I bought the complete pack which had a lot of DLC, but not all of it. Now that I'm looking at the prices, I can see them adding up to a ton of money. I usually don't buy DLC, so can someone tell me if it's going to be on sale at some point? I want to eventually own all of it, but I don't want to spend a ton of money. I'd like there to be a "complete my DLC" option or something, but I don't think that's possible. Do I just have to buy the DLC one at a time as it comes on sale or will there be a DLC pack that gives me the stuff I don't own?

IIRC Enhanced Steam has a function to add all the DLC you don't own to cart.
 
Thanks to my indie gala purchase of Deadly Premonition I now own Velvet Assassin. But guys, do I WANT to own VA? Like, is it even worth copy/pasting that key into steam?

Increasing your game count by 1 is never a bad thing.

I actually installed this game at one point and couldn't play it. Just didn't feel very polished.

Deadly Premonition was the only game I added. I don't like scrolling down my pretty list of games and seeing something like santas rampage.

Maybe, but there's a key difference here that the masses seem to be overlooking:

DmC was a reboot. This is merely set in the same universe somewhere. It's not like Yaiba is the new Ryu.

I know! Since it's a side-story, they can just call it a gaiden! Ninja Gaiden Gaid-- ...okay, no, that's not going to work.

I meant about reactions DMC fans have had after playing the reboot.
Don't think they (Spark Unlimited) really needed the Ninja Gaiden name to sell it to the public, but that's their business decision.
