I'll wait untill I see the Starters eveloutions too mark them as the ugliest starters, but thats where the Grass and Water ones stand for me right now.
@C7 ... I thought it was a monkey.
@Swikit I completely agree, my hat is off to you, good sir.
@ThomasBW84 internet = large amount of opinions. large amount of opinions + large amount of opinions = inevitably conflicing opinions, which in turn equal arguments, there really isn't anything you could've done to prevent it, aside from attempting to rank stuff in the first place.
I completely agree wi- /me sees that PM:SS andNSMB2 are ranked higher than KI:U. /me rages quits and loses all respect for Nintendo Life staff for the rest of the day!
This is the third game in the same series in one year, ha, and people say Call of Duty has too many releases so close to each other.
And you tell'em @Reala!
I liked the first one well enough, it was extremly trying in some spots, I did end up finishing it after a while, but the redeeming qualities of the first one seem to be over shadowed by the bad parts more in this one, so I'll pass.
If playing CoD in their parent's basement caused people to commit mass murder, this kind of thing wouldn't even get reported by the news because of how common place it would be.
They've never heard of self-proclaimed 'Hardcore' gamers before, have they?
And from what I've seen of the Warriors series. (The Hack'n Slash games, and Fist of the North Star: Ken's Rage? Which Wikipedia hac listed it as a spinoff?.. I don't know if I should count that.)
It really isn't that violent, although, I haven't seen any other games in the series, I bet @WhiteKnight could say though.
@PvtOttobot Yeah, I haven't played Monster Hunter before, but I know that all the people in the clips were terrible at playing it, I mean, how many attacks did they not get hit by? The only ones I could count were when they didn't actually have to move because the monster itself missed.
I actually respected their first reason for not putting the game on the Wii U more, I don't imagine it would be easy to go over and change most, if not all, the functions from CPU run to GPU (Or GPGPU?) run, and the fact that they are having financial difficulties, which would make that time spent all that much worse if it didn't sell. But they actually didn't want to work on the Wii U because they didn't like the early dev kit. :/
@TheDreamingHawk & @Beta When did ESRB rate this? The original Lords of Shadow was rated 'M,' but last I checked (About a minute ago.) Mirror of Fate hasn't been rated, and I don't see it getting rated anything higher than 'T'.

I don't really notice the loading times that much, maybe it's because I don't own a smartphone.

Re: Nintendo Says The Play Limit On Demos Is Set By The Publishers
I don't think I've hit a limit on a demo since I probably only try each one a few times, but that doesn't make the concept any less weird.

Re: Japanese 3DS Lifetime Sales Overtake PlayStation 3
