I just figured the few PC titles weren't worth mentioning since they're already dirt cheap, and were pretty much ignored by retailers across the board.

Plus, I was trying to weigh the overall value all of the discounts:

@KillDrone That's why the contest is only asking you to reflect on the good times you had with the series.

Hell, send a screenshot of your favorite level, if you like.

@John-117 That's fair. Sorry if I gave the impression that I don't find Gran Turismo to be a grand technical feat, cause I really, really do. It's just one that's been repeated 5 times, and I'm starting get a little bored with it.

Admittedly, I was intentionally prodding Turismo fans, but competition like Forza will only produce better games from both sides in in the future, right? So there's really no reason to hate on either other than shits and gigs.

Besides, didn't the fanboys read the part where I said Turismo looked better?

I suppose I should clarify that I don't give a shit about licensed cars. Cosmetically, anyway. I like to race, and I'm starting to feel that Gran Turismo has been skating by on it's legacy and licenses for a while now (see scores for PSP version.) Thus I addressed the "gameplay" - weird, huh - of which I've always felt was carried out better by Forza.

How many cars do you use anyway? 99.9% of gamers haven't driven 99.99999% of the vehicles in the game. We could argue forever about which Lotus/Ferrari/Dodge Neon handles more authentically, but sooner or later, aren't we really just taking their word for it?

Turismo is notoriously unforgiving, and while its fans wear that as a badge of honor, I find it annoying. Forza 3 let's me tackle stuff at any difficulty I want, whenever I want. And you don't need a fanboy to tell you that the online community is better because any naysayer is probably a PS3 owner and well... you've taken that thing online, right?

2 months 9 days ago on Why Final Fantasy doesn’t matter to Kingdom Hearts
The template is certainly a Final Fantasy game, or rather a Square-Enix game, with no devotion to any particular FF storyline.

Kingdom Hearts is Disney's story, but with the cooperation of both companies it cannot exist

I wasn't trying to say I don't love the inclusion of the FF characters, because I do! Of course, I'd love to see some pre VI characters on the roster... but if the addition of any FF character is creating even the smallest blockade to development, I say cut 'em all loose.

Irregardless of how much more sense it would make to the universe, I'd rather hear Mr. Toad, Baloo, Robin Hood, or The Goddamn Aristocats babble on at me about the forces of light and dark than wait another half a decade for a third game.

3 months 23 hours ago on Disney buys Marvel: who benefits?
mostly @pikachu

Look, I love reactionary speculation as much as the next guy, but:

1. It's not like Mickey and Zac Efron make frequent appearances on ESPN (Although that first year of ABC ownership did see every prime time sitcom going to Disney World - even the dirt poor family in Roseanne stayed at resort I'll never afford.)

2. It isn't like the WCW acquisition at all really. What little presence Disney has left in the Comic business doesn;t take precedent here, and can only benefit from Marvel's expertise, NOT the other way around. (Remember every Ducktales character started out on the illustrated page!)

3. Another thing people aren't thinking about: The new direction of LucasArts. They decided it wasn't worth their time to focus the time and millions on Star Wars/Indy, and that those properties could be better handled by third party devs so Lucas could focus on original IP.

THQ, Konami and Square have put out brand new Disney games this year, so it's foolish to think Disney could even pull together the resources to start developing every Marvel game overnight.

@ringslinger

Rant away! I share the same fears you do... although, most of them are just as applicable to Marvel had they never been bought by Disney. Disney itself rendered their characters into soulless commodities, and given enough time, I assure you Marvel would've done the same thing.

But thanks to people like Lassetter (and Pixer), Disney is a smarter company with more respect for its properties. Take the Muppets for example. From what I've heard, they've been pretty hands-off and the next movie is looking to capture a tone that's more reminiscent of what made them popular in the first place, instead of trotting out something meaningless in the first year of acquisition. To me, it sounds like they've acknowledged that they didn't fully understand the Muppets the first time, and that they're better off left in the hands of those who do. If that's the case, I think there's plenty reason to be optimistic about Marvel.

This is like a support group!
3 months 1 day ago on Disney buys Marvel: who benefits?
I know we're all feeling pessimistic and silly, but the internet's fear of Disney properties invading Marvel's is a little unwarranted.

Outside of the occasional promotional opportunity how often did/does Mickey Mouse or Jack Sparrow cross paths with Hannah Montana or HSM anyay? Seriously, I'm asking!
