VIDEO GAME PURCHASES

You know, the quality of character designs (in fact, any art in general) more or less differs from person to person. Trying to contradict my liking them with your disliking them is just silly!

Character designs are really neato.
Regardless, I might have to give it a try. As long as it's fun, I don't really care if I'm playing as an angsty tweenage fashion victim or not.
author=Orig link=topic=2773.msg61937#msg61937 date=1234726450I think like a lot of people, you two are both confusing art style with character design. The characters are distinct and recognizable from a distance even as small sprites--that's good video game character design. Much better than certain other character designers like Amano who do beautiful pictures but whose characters have to be redesigned by other people before they could ever hope to be recognizable to players as sprites or models. I've got a bit of a pet peeve with how down on Nomura people tend to be despite the fact that he does exactly what a character designer for video games should do.

The character designs may be ridiculous a lot of the time, but that makes them recognizable and gives them, wait for it....character. Also, before anyone pulls out the "belts and zippers" meme, I ask that they remember that Shibuya is where Japanese people go when they want to dress like lunatics.
R4 Revolution for $20.95
Yup, it pays itself back pretty quick. Now I don't have to carry thousands of cases with me.

Street Fighter IV, just got to go pick it up on Friday!
I hear Ryu is going to be an unlockable character is RE5... Could be just a rumor though.
I finally found a copy of Fatal Frame 2... <3
All I need now is 'Way of The Rose' and my collection of PS2 horror is complete.

I bought Retro Game Challenge and Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon at roughly the same time. I like Fire Emblem more than Retro Game Challenge, but both are great. RGC is probably a better game, but Fire Emblem gels well with my tastes.
I will probably buy Dragon Quest V very soon.
How can someone who loves video games pirate them? Really.

You mean Rule of Rose? Because that's probably my favorite horror game. I kind of hate the localization for toning down the more risque themes, though. (9 year-old lesbians.) Makes a lot of the story make even less sense.
Bought a 360 elite on thursday along with Gears of War and Ninja Gaiden II. Both games for $30. Still getting used to seeing such pretty graphics and taking advantage of being able to buy M games now that I'm 17. The only way I could play M games before was pirating, but now it's like a whole new world has just opened up for me!
Congratz on the 360. Resident Evil 5 Limited Edition on Friday. Last game for a while for me.. Although Dark Athena really looks good, plus it comes with a remake of Butcher Bay!
I'm playing through RE5 right now, actually. Just got it today. It's very entertaining, although kinda short. All RE games are kinda short though, so it's nothing new.

Did you buy it? Or did you download the leaked version?
author=VerifyedRasta link=topic=2773.msg65915#msg65915 date=1236665757Tons of places have this game on the shelves already. None of the popular retail places though, obviously. And downloading a leaked version doesn't magically work on your 360, lots of work needs to be done to get that to happen.

I just bought the new Suikoden and am looking at getting me some Dynasty Warriors. Not sure whether to get 2, 3 or 5 though. (Already played/finished 6)
I'll have to distract myself with Heroes Realm until I get them though. ^.^
