I might be unhappy, except.
1. I have Fire Emblem: Awakening.
2. I didn't really like Rayman Origins.
3. I didn't like the demo for Legends, and I don't think I would like the full game of it either.
4. I have plenty of other games besides Fire Emblem: Awakening that I have to play anyways.
5. I think it'll be funny to see Ubisoft complain about it bombing. (If GTA V is going to be as popular as everyone expects.)
@Chrono_Cross Weird, I didn't notice that, since I don't use the news tab.
Thomas, or somebody else who puts tags on posts (If thats even a job, here at Nintendolife, I couldn't imagine it being one.), made a mistake, I imagine.
@TheRealThanos (#77) I think he means in a few years, I mean, they aren't going to keep it at whatever price it is in the Netherlands forever.
@DaemonSword I never knew that Sony or Microsoft made ovens and microwaves... If they did, wouldn't they have combined them with their game consoles? I mean come on.
@TurianAgent Actually, they didn't have to hack, the stat growths were partialy determined by the DS clock, some times of day would give you better growths than others, that's how people maxed out ALL THE STATS.
I was expecting them to publish it, it was more a matter of when.
And it's not really a hard choice for me, as I like Rune Factory better than Animal Crossing.
So it might release by 2014? (At least it will get here before Kidd Tripp.)
Sontendosoft sounds like it's prepped to fight Jamesega, the renamed company that used to be Apple, but that was before @James became ruler of it via his segabot army.
@Jamouse (#18) When I got up this morning I took the time to read through it better, and say the part where he said they were all first party games, I can only assume it means he's including some unannounced titles.
@Lan It's a joke from Team Fortress 2. (I didn't think you would get it, but alas, I laughed enough for both of us since I'm tired.)
@SMEXIZELDAMAN You also get a kid, except for a few of the female characters. (Which the kids are tied to, except your character's kid, who is tied to your character.) And each pairing does get a special conversation, just like any other support conversation, and the character to make gets a special conversation a 'confession' picture of the person you got an 'S' rank with, and you get even better support stats.
@Adam & @Koto Yes, and infact, you can have as many 'A' rank supports as you want with each character, but each character can only get 1 'S' rank with a character of the opposite gender.
I'm quite enjoying this, I really like the new career modes, as a person who doesn't buy the madden games every year, (Infact, the only other one I bought was 08 on the Wii, although my dad has some older ones from the 90s on PC.) I do plan on buying 14' if it has the improved physics engine like the X-Box 360 and PS3 versions.
But I must say the difficulty is rather weird, it feels like the Pro level AI cheats way more than the All-Pro AI.
11/100 on Metacritic? That makes it the second worst game rated by more than 4 reviewers on Metacritic, only Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing is worse rated at 8/100. Also, Phillip, can we see a picture of that bear?
Never mind, I think I found it.
@Hardy83 Yeah, that kind of explanation would be understandable,(imo, anyways.) games sure arn't cheap or easy to 'make', but their excuse just sounds rather lame. :/
They could send them back in time, like, back to when humans started being awesome, infect those humans, and turn them into zombies, thus turning everyone alive today into a zombie, or go back further and make zombie dinosaurs for the sequel, Dinozaur U, or Zombizaur U.
Probably Civilization V, Minecraft and on Sunday, Super Smash Bros Brawl when my friends come over too play with me on my birthday. (Which is actually Monday, but we all have homework so.. )
@cyrus_zuo Please don't tell me you played it on "normal" difficulty the first time around, instead of our Easy, Normal, and Hard, in Japan they were Normal, Hard, and Insane, respectively, I wouldn't reccomend anybody start playing Fire Emblem with Radiant Dawn.
