I understand it. Still, seeing Asuka where Jun used to be after waiting for years while Paul gets to live forever?
At least I'm getting Venom back in GG.

This only happened with Wind Waker. The fanbase is still very torn over Twilight Princess and I've heard more shit than praise for Skyward Sword. I really don't see any shift in opinion over Link Between Worlds. The praise is pretty unanimous. First Zelda I played and finished in years.
On GTA: first one played and only one I've ever put serious time into was China Town Wars on PSP. I tried GTA3 on phone with Moga... plays great, but honestly bored me so I stopped.
The good sis Robido just gave TESTIMONY over in PopGAF tonight:
Oh, Luther...RIP.
I hope some of you are in the position to turn out the lights.
Pour some Henny over ice.
Call over that special someone (of a lifetime or for the moment)
Put on some Luther.
And Get it INNNN...
My dearest young ones. Let me tell you about my sugar daddy. Before there was a Maxwell, a Lenny Kravitz, a Prince... There was my BIG DADDY Luther Vandross. I know you girls don't like slow music, or men for that matter.But babies, Luther(Who hurt you, btw?!)is the realest of the real deals. And contrary to popular belief, Lu had some jams in there. Also: Vocals for days. Songs for days. Big Luther or skinny Luther, it didn't matter. When boo started SANGIN, you shut up, sat down, and paid attention. Luther didn't garner much by the way of crossover success(or Lutha)and thank goodness. Singers seeking crossover appeal makes "good" singers sing shitty songs that don't fit their voices. See: Jennifer Hudson(except for that insipid "Here and Now" drivel)Luther didn't fall into that trap. Her made good albums and music that accentuated exactly what you seek out singers for, HIS VOICE.(I used quotes around good, Mumei)
My love affair with Luther started when I was fairly young. My mom, being the connoisseur of fabulous music that she is, copped Luther's debut album when it dropped in 1981, and a young six year old <+)O Robido O(+> fell in love. I cannot tell you how many times I listened to that record as a youngster. It was a lot. I had yet to discover Prince, so Luther was my everything.
I tried to narrow this post down to one favorite album, but as you can see, I failed. Luther's first 5 albums are everything. I invite you to give them a listen, and get your life.
I won't post any of the live stuff, unless I have no choice. BUT YOU ARE NOT READY FOR LIVE LUTHER ANYWAY!

There were 5-6 Bloody Roars? Shit.

I live a couple miles from there. I heard a loud ass boom outside, but I didn't see any rain, so I had no idea what the hell happened. Then I got some texts from some friends talking about it. Crazy.
I was at a different beach the day before. Just when I'm getting used to overcoming the "black person who doesn't go near water" stereotype, that shit happens, lol.

Haven't played it yet so I can't comment
That shit makes Dragon Ball Z Final Bout look like Mortal Kombat 9
Lol it was a freak accident man. Don't be afraid to go in the water!!
The one fanbase I'm a part of but am really getting sick of is the Zelda fanbase. It spends basically all its forum time tearing itself apart.
Have you ever seen such a fractured fanbase as Zelda's? Nobody agrees on which Zelda games are the "right" ones and which ones messed up the franchise. Then you've got data showing the series' actual sales run contradictory to how a lot of people perceive it. It's fucked up that I consider myself a Zelda fan but I seem to be one of a select few people who actually enjoys nearly all the Zelda games.

That Luther post is all facts.
The only elitists that really get on my nerves are horror elitists, whom have to tell the world why x,y,z isn't scary, and can't fathom people being afraid of different shit.

What's wrong with Skullgirls? I bought it cheap on Steam and played a bit. Seemed fine, but then again I'm a FG novice compared to most of you. I just learned this week that FG = fighting game... right?

I imported it as a kid
The intro was so dope
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Df-pYkKxQg
and then I pressed the start button....
it has best sean, best music and best interface.
i got caught in a meteor combo i couldnt escape from and got pissed. and the the fucking voice acting and bitchmade gohan.... nope to that
is it because its been years, and it stills feels like a beta?
Isn't that a good thing? Some of the games are pretty damn different from each other, so yeah, different opinions and stuff. I don't like all the Zelda games. Phantom was boring shit and had the annoying touchscreen controls. TW was a bore in the first few hours so I just quit. It's fine to leave a few of the games behind and move on to ones you like. Shouldn't be a single consensus.
they used to have Ultimate Battle 22 set up at the import shop downtown. it was wack as hell but everybody played it anyway just cause it had all the future characters.

They made a post recently that they FINALLY started making money on copies sold
It'd be pretty funny if it wasn't so sad

What kills me is the Souls series comparisions. Zelda and Souls are two different beasts. Christ ya think people played the first Zelda and none of the sequels.
The only franchise you can really compare Zelda to is Darksiders, and we know that's a losing battle.
it's that bad? i figured it'd be reasonably successful.
I haven't a clue what's wrong with SG, it seems fine to me.

But we're all in agreement that jump scares are some bullshit, right? As someone who dabbles in audio production, it's literally Youtube Poop levels of *quiet... HOLY LOUD NOISE INVERTED COLORS ROBOTNIK DICK* in most cases.
I like the cat scares in Alien and Friday the 13th, though. Cat scares need to make a comeback.
People wish it was just that.
Dude had it right. It came out years ago and still functions at all levels like a damned beta.

The company had a string of problems that ranged from dlc issues fragmenting the player base to company issues with Konami. More dev issues than the game being bad. I think it's a lot of fun.
lmfao. They have their places and are effective, but can be overused.
I agree on the cat scares. Felines would be jumping out of random ass cabinets and shit spooking the fuck out of people.

My problem with Skullgirls is that it's such a bland fighting game
It's full of ideas that are great on paper like IPS and Unblockable protection, but the end result is some of the most sterile game design I've seen in a fighting game.

Big Lutha tho, not lil Lutha
I open the thread and see Primal Rage slander.
This is why I don't fuck with neoniggas.
The only Zelda games I've played that I haven't enjoyed were the original two. That said, I can see why others might dislike, say, Wind Waker (my favorite) or The Minish Cap. It's how vehemently the fanbase fights against itself that gets grating.
The Final Fantasy fanbase amuses me because they're clearly suffering from some kind of gaming stockholm syndrome at this point. I've also noticed that many FF fans are willing to agree that 7 was the best, even if they themselves actually like another one more. Which is odd to me.
