^Are ye both daft? Are ye retarded? HE'S THE GODDAMN BLUE BOMBER!
I'll pm you an update on the current Sonic comic in the next few days, it's small update on what new books are being released ;3
I thought the Blue Bomber was Sonic raining death below on any badnik in dire need of a spin attack...

I'm playing that right now and it's pretty good!
I agree.
The Story mode is overly repetitive and long IMO, but the 000 Scenario makes up for it.

I wont object to this.
Glad we're in agreement then!

Eeeeh, Phoenix is great but (IMO) the series kinda took a dip in quality once he stopped being the main character; thankfully he's back for the new one.
Yeah, Apollo Justice was really flawed. I thought the Edgeworth game was great until the end of the final case... I heard its sequel is MUCH better though. Too bad that's never getting localized... sigh

I hope the standalone Dikembe game is in the works still. Not bad if it isn't, but I'd really like to go back to that game sometime.
...wat...
naw, man...
Alright, you redeemed yourself. Ouendan 2 is fantastic. I did buy my DS just for Ouendan/EBA at the beginning. Though I dunno if I'd call it my favourite handheld game, it's most certainly up there.
Shucks, I'll go with Ouendan/EBA for my favourite handheld games. I can't remember what else I like at the top of my head right now.
Let's turn into a this into a thread about how awesome the Metal Gear Rising OST is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HvRu8gfaX0

I don't think Fever is that much more forgiving, I think it's that the input method is more reliable (DS version table tennis is the worst).
I wish I could take part but I don't have the game yet
Fever gives you more room for error while the DS one expects you to be near perfect to get "OK" if I'm not mistaken.

Monkey Watch had no mercy on me!
I also agree with the first part of your post, but i'm dead set on wait for £20 mode right now and I can't go back on my cheap arse word!
Monkey Watch is an exception, not to mention most likely designed by someone who hates humans. The only game in Fever I've ever skipped. Good god

Both those games require my mind to click into it, I can do both consistently now but damn was it a hard fought battle to reach that point.

I would partake but you picked the exact same song I would've! Stains of Time, then.
Shit, that game and soundtrack are so fucking good. Like I said in the OT, it's been a long time since I played a game for the first time with a smile on my face the whole time. No no, it's been a long time since I fought bosses with a smile on my face the whole time. The bosses are so fucking good and well-designed... I just... it makes me feel so good inside to play through them.
And dealing the ending blow is absolutely wonderful since they made the music synch so well with it. Such a fucking good dynamic soundtrack. I totally ordered the soundtrack to do a review for it, but I can't wait to get that stuff on a CD for the car.
Guys. I need to tell you a summary of what my friend thought of Rising before trading it in. It makes me sad:
"I fought that one boss battle with the wolf. He pauses and summons regular enemies, and then pauses a couple of times to summon Gekko. It still fell flat. I agree that Parrying feels like more of an acquired skill than just some random thing to do that has infinite I-frames, but I just disliked how it all played. It was kind of cool being able to chop down Gekko with some practice, but it got old really, really quickly. This game really pushes the combat angle. I'm not fond of games like that, unless I'm playing RPGs. It's likely the biggest problem here is genre dissonance, but as far as action games go, I enjoyed my dreaded God of War games more than this. That's saying something."
It felt bad to hear this. So bad. Even when I stressed it was an action game, pure and simple, he vehemently disagreed.
I'm as excited for God of War as I was for Rising, but that line still made me laugh.
Your friends sounds like he/she just doesn't enjoy Action games. "This game really pushes the combat angle.", really?
Wait, what did he think it was?
I struggled getting the perfect on Moai Doo-wop/2. Just plain beating it is a cinch.

Should've stayed straight-up stealth action like MGS is, and it didn't need the action hack/slash elements. I don't think he ever saw it as a proper hack/slash action game, but tried seeing it more as a stealth action game like all the other MGS games is (and if he stuck around for the sewers, maybe he would've realized it did have stealth elements).
This guy is the biggest MGS fan I know (and he absolutely adores Raiden's character), but it's just interesting how he didn't seem to like what he played of the game at all. He didn't even get to Mistral before trading it in, which I thought was his biggest mistake. That's the point where I fell deeply in love with the game's combat.
This is a guy who likes Kingdom Hearts's action combat elements more than regular action games' action combat elements. I probably should've expected these impressions in hindsight, tbh.

That tagline sucked, good thing they changed it.
My friend has been essentially shitting on the game all week after spending the last month bigging up DmC, i'm left confused as I tended to trust his thoughts on these sort of games considering his love for Bayonetta and Ninja Gaiden.

What hurt the most was hearing, "Kingdom Hearts has better combat than this."
That killed me inside.
That killed me inside.
I dread playing DmC now, just because I know that the bosses aren't this good.
I can see where he's coming from, but outside of the initial conception of the game, Rising was billed as an action game from the start. Hell, it even drops the Metal Gear Solid monicker to try and differentiate itself from the main stealth series. What boggles me the most is his denial of it being an action game despite it playing like one. Talk about covering your ears.
Get better friends.
No.
SE wishes they could make an action game as good as Platinum's worst.

I think he's one of those MGS fans who really don't like the idea of this game being canon, and ends up trying to nitpick many aspects of the game in general (and trying to make it stick to the stealth action genre trapping is probably not helping his outlook for the game). I find it strange to me, because it's really starting to become one of my favourite Metal Gear games in general on account of how it plays alone. I think a lot of its standout moments outweigh some of the questionable design flaws it has (ex: standing still to open the menu, the auto-correct camera, etc).
And you know how I feel about KH and its combat already. :/
His favourite FF is FF13.
Nah, other than some of his odd opinions, he's a nice person to talk to about games.
I could maybe understand the complaint if they'd stuck with Metal Gear Solid: Rising as the title, but in a remarkable burst of insight, Konami spun it off as its own distinct subseries of the overall Metal Gear brand. And diversifying the franchise is a move they desperately needed to make if they're going to stick with their policy of making Metal Gear and nothing else.
