The only thing my parents were really strict on where were any toy that they thought was too much like a weapon. That included even stuff like Nerf Guns and Water Guns or fake Swords. I always felt they they went a bit overboard when I was a kid but as an adult its SUPER OBVIOUS why they were anal retentive about that sort of stuff :/

They also weren't big fans of hyper-violent material but I disliked stuff like Mortal Komabt anyway so I wasn't really attracted to that sort of stuff either then or now. I remember playing Hybrid Heaven for the N64 once and my Dad gave me some shit about that but I just kept playing it when my parents weren't home.

I think when I was 9 or 10, I played GTA 3. Although I only really cared about driving around and causing some mayhem. San Andreas was when I was 15 I think?

 

[Zonic]

Never played GTA since that fell under the radar of "Oh, M-rated game where you just shoot people and crap. Pass."

 

[Jarate]

I played GoldenEye as a kid heavily. I played some GTA but I've never been a big fan of the series.

I'm gonna allow my kids to prolly play whatever and watch whatever unless he has specific problems related to violence. I don't see why they shouldnt

ESRB ratings were law in my house.

 

[Zonic]

I'd be the biggest hypocritical parent by not caring about sexual content but getting on their case on violence because that seems how other countries roll.

...............but that'd require actually having a kid. Let alone WANTING one, which I don't after all the years of being around them.

ESRB ratings were law in my house.

Least your parents actually KNEW of the ESRB ratings, therefore having those warnings do its job.

So we're never getting another chapter of HxH. http://www.dragonquest.jp/dq8/ Coincidentally, we're also never getting that game in America.

I really wanted a console HD version... the game is gorgeous and needs to be played in HD.

EDIT: Not port begging. Just an observation.

You can play it on your HD phone right now.

The game was gorgeous before in 480i, it'll be fine on the 3DS.

FACK THE PHONE VERSION!

 

[LOLDSFAN]

My parents with fine with games because I only played Nintendo ones.

My mom thinks every anime is Naruto.

 

[Jarate]

Fuck the phone version indeed, missing a lot of voice acting and the screen is stuck in landscape mode

Ps2 or bust in general, since I doubt the 3ds version will be a good port

3DS is significantly more powerful than the PS2, it amounts to what effort they put in. Plus this version will have, if nothing else, significantly improved loading times.

At least she acknowledges what an anime is. NO MOM SWORD ART ONLINE ISNT A CARTOON.

I wouldn't call SAO an anime either.
The proper term is PSYCHOLOGICAL TORTURE!

Things that are bad going for it

Limited cartridge space
Square Enix already ported the game, it'll prolly be a port of a port
We won't get it in america

 

[Man God]

It's a cartoon.

DQ VIII on PS2 is slightly smaller than the largest 3DS games.
It won't be a port of the unity port, that would be dumb.
We might get it in America considering most of it is localized to modern DQ standards (this was the first title to be so in fact)

 

[bigkrev]

DQ VIII on 3DS!

One more for the pile of skulls of SE's western localization!

LOLOLOL guys you realize it's going to be a port of the iOS version to 3DS, right?

 

[Man God]

LOLOLOL guys you realize it's going to be a port of the iOS version to 3DS, right?

Considering Unity doesn't work natively on 3DS and it would probably be more work undoing the vertical scaling, plus the new content...Yeah, it's not likely.

 

[BatDan]

LOLOLOL guys you realize it's going to be a port of the iOS version to 3DS, right?

There's new content. Not an iOS port.

If that alternate costume was the standard outfit of [Kill la Kill Protagonist], then I probably would have had enough interest to keep watching. Character design is a huge factor in whether I'll watch anime, and while [Protagonist] had good design for her hair and facial expressions, both her standard garb and at least initial battle outfit were super lame/ uncool. Part of the reason that I got into/ enjoy A Certain Magical/Scientific Index/Railgun is that I enjoy Accelerator's character design/facial expressions enough that I would watch anything that he's in (assuming that they don't pull a Soul Eater Not! and trash designs in another adaptation or something). I actively want his shirt to wear. Probably also part of the reason I'll probably never watch One Piece.

Spoiler

The suspenders still look stupid though.

 

[Man God]

Why suspenders though.

Spoiler

To keep her pants up. Suspenders are awesome.

 

[Jintor]

her suspenders look gr8

 

[Man God]

whenever I lose a bunch of weight I end up belting my track pants to go walk the dogs with because it's cheaper than buying new ones. I only size down when the pants become too worn. Maybe I should switch to suspenders...

 

[Imperial Bishop]

I finally finished Daredevil on Netflix. Disappointing.

I didn't realize it was Opposite Day.

 

[Soulflarz]

To those who know me

*doesn't inherently hate Kirito because harems are too real*

(I guess the thing I hate is their reasons for liking him, since he doesn't really put any effort into it, which is where the stupidity comes in)

 

[Man God]

Eh, at least they're sort of trying with Sinnon. The nurse makes no sense.

 

[Imperial Bishop]

That's the Steven way, baby.

 

[Pop-O-Matic]

Reminds me that this is a thing that exists.

 

[BassForever]

One day we will get DQ games in English again

 

[UltraGunner]

One day we will get DQ games in English again

Maybe if DQ 11 is developed by Omega Force.

 

[MetatronM]

Eh, at least they're sort of trying with Sinnon. The nurse makes no sense.

The nurse literally has dialogue that amounts to "I'm a hot sexy nubile young nurse! Now take off your pants!"

 

[TheChits]

Interesting. What did you find so disappointing, if you don't mind my asking?

 

[Man God]

The nurse literally has dialogue that amounts to "I'm a hot sexy nubile young nurse! Now take off your pants!"

I mean sure, Sinnon has seemingly fallen in love with the guy after he "betrayed" her by not conforming to gender identity norms and hating him for one round of a tournament, but at least she isn't pervy nurse.

 

[Raxus]

Interesting. What did you find so disappointing, if you don't mind my asking?

First of all it lives up to the definition of disappointing for me. As in it showed promise and peaked when we hit *Episode title spoilers for Daredevil*

Spoiler

Nelson v. Murdock and The Path of the Righteous.

The final two episodes squander that. I will go into further detail but this is so spoiler heavy I am not even going to bother black barring the page and just PM you the nitty gritty.

In short, I can really see why they are changing showrunners.

The issue is that her dialogue serves zero purpose in SAO2 other than to reiterate the fact that everyone with a vagina wants Kirito just because it's Kirito. Sinon at least has characterization beyond that distinction, even if it's not that deep or even great.

Ah, I see. That is fair enough, as I also found

Spoiler

the final two episodes a disappointing culmination of all that had happened prior

. Still loved the show overall though.

Freakin' hell, Nintendo's Digital Event for E3 starts RIGHT at the same time I have class. Guess I'll have to get the video ready & watch it as soon as I get home 2 hours later. Gonna have to stay off Twitter & Neogaf so the element of surprise is still there.

Apparently Square's conference is at the exact same time as well.

This E3 is already shaping up to be kind of a mess. If I recall 2010 was kind of a clusterfuck too.

Conferences this year:
Nintendo
Sony
Microsoft
EA
Ubisoft
PC (?)
Bethesda
Square Enix (?)

 

[Zonic]

Nintendo & Square to secretly team up & announce the same game at the same time: SUPER MARIO RPG 2: LEGEND OF 7 MOAR STARZ

I'll just watch whatever S-E trailers (i.e FF15 & HOPEFULLY KH3) afterwards, but Nintendo takes my top priority.

Think I might be able to see Sony's press conference live, though I question why I still bother watching Microsoft's aside from the fact it's tradition to watch the big 3.

Can't get that tuesday off work due to it being inventory, thankfully my lunch is always 12-1 which perfectly lines up with Nintendo's event.

Send me that PM.

Spoiler

It was a little underwhelming, but I thought it was good season finale. It left some hanging plot threads for Season 2 and other Marvel Netflix series.

 

[daveo42]

I'm taking both those days off for conference coverage, only because I can and it'll be a nice mini-vacation.

 

[Jarate]

Ughhh, I woke up at 5 somehow

How does someone sleep for 14 hours!

 

[Schadenfreude]

Very comfortably.
