Re: What makes a gaming character iconic?

Both Mario and Gordon Freeman are your average joe. (Well, not every joe can have a degree in Nuclear Physics and Interdimensional Fatigue research, but you get my drift)

Makes it easier to identify with than the Super Duper Shinigami Bishie Amnesiac RPG Protagonist archetype.

Re: Sega Saturn seen in film 'The Black Mask'

^^ In that vein, who remembers seeing two kids simultaneously "playing" Final Fantasy 8 on a PS1, in Charlie's Angels? (Only saw it because my stepdad was an electronics salesman and got free tickets courtesy of Sony) I didn't know to laugh or cry at that moment.

Re: What would you like to know about the Segagaga Translation?

Given that Japanese jokes sometimes work with untranslatable (sp?) puns, are they changing anything to better fit western humor?

Re: Flawed games that could have been great?

Are we still talking about FFXIII? That doesn't describe its combat system at all. Hold x to win won't get you far.

Re: Flojocabron's Guide to making money at media/trade-in stores

In 2004, I managed to snipe three different copies of Radiant Silvergun, and resold them by either bundling them with a cheap Saturn that I had modded myself, or a Saturn Gameshark. Blew half a paycheck there, but after recouping costs, my profit was 300 dollars. I like Flojo-C's method, but require...
