why is it that every crossover game not made by nintendo shows a profound disinterest in maintaining the integrity of the characters they're using

i mean, okay, sonic has a car, fine, but why do the monkey ball characters have cars when they already have mini-games where they fly by opening the ball and flapping them like wings?  why does wreck-it ralph have some tow truck instead of a sugar rush car?  can't you give the jet set characters like, rocket skates or something (they could totally stabilize with spray paint cans)?  why in the living fuck is wikipedia telling me that danica patrick is a character in this?

no sir, i am not buying what you are selling

It's true, we don't let anyone into our secret fortress unless they ask or something.

...Bal, scroll up the page.

But yeah, looks like fun; I can definitely get behind the Witcher guys doing a Blade Runner/Neuromancer/Matrix pastiche.

I... what? No, I mean exactly what I said. I like meeting new people and getting to know those I have met better. I'm not beholden to the specific voice chat server I use and can join another or vice versa. There's no edict from on high banishing the masses. Not sure why you're being a jerk at random.

as if millions of parent's wallets suddenly cried out in terror

tl;dr Disney is combining basically every single movie property they have into a blended mash of Skylanders and Minecraft.  this is some weapons-grade marketing evil.

Yeah, it might've actually been tasteful with a head, I'd really love to hear their reasoning there.

Do you understand how terrifying the words “vibrating strap on” are for an asexual? That’s like saying “the holocaust” to a Jew.

Goichi Suda has a dial in his brain. On the far left there's Flower, Sun and Rain, then going towards the right there's Killer 7, No More Heroes, Shadows of the Damned, and then Lollipop Chainsaw on the far end.

For this one, it looks like someone set the knob somewhere in the space between K7 and NMH. Which as far as I'm concerned may just be a sweet spot.

I see it more like two switches. 'gameplay' has "I want this to be fun" and "I want this to be artistic"; 'story' has "Life is horrible for everyone always" and "lol boobs and butts".

Finally they're both in position one.

It also requires Silicon Knights to cease producing or distributing those games, and to recall and destroy any unsold copies.

So how long until a judge orders a company to destroy all SOLD copies of a digitally-distributed product?

Currently unknown if the court order extended to Digital copies, or if this is just a happy excuse for Silicon Knights to try and erase the colossus-sized turd from existence.
