I would figure so, since the kid's model is pretty bland and basic looking.

I had no idea what it was from the images. But from the video, it clearly looks like a reinterpretation of a Griffin.

I didn't notice the video before. Looks like a griffin. Also, it has wings, which I suspect will eventually grow strong enough for it to fly.

It does look like a griffin. But I think it's wings are clipped, not just small. I mean, yeah, it looks like a baby. But it was chained up and guarded! Who guards a baby!

I'm betting they were clipped.

I love Ico and SotC, but "trico" doesn't do much for me, it's like Ico but with a giant chihuhua-bird-rat instead of a girl I usually left alone while I did my thing. I doesn't seem like the game is breaking new ground like their predecessors did.

"Ju-on: The Grudge makes quick scares accessible to anyone with a Wii," said Xseed president Jun Iwasaki in a statement. "Players can even hand the Wii Remote to their mother and enjoy watching her play and get scared."

Oh yeah, I'm gonna do that, sure.

: "...!"

So it seems XSEED is bringing Half-Minute Hero to the states. And here I was thinking I wouldn't have to buy a PSP this year...

Tekken 6 gets 2-player co-op Tekken Force Mode.

Doesn't matter that Tekken 5's Tekken Force mode was terrible.

Not so much news as a general

Just like reading non-textbooks, martial arts, movies, sleeping and eating!

Although I did take a gander at one of the links in the comments that caught my eye: http://www.ftwunited.com/dfly4/index.php?name=News&file=article&sid=4

It's naive, but it's also a fairly off the cuff comment.

If I was gonna be mean I'd go with a joke about a proclaimed genius having a liberal arts degree.

Meanwhile, Mathmetician Alexey Pajitnov is still famous (if not exactly rich) for creating Tetris, which turns 25 today.

As depressing as it is that I'm older than both that kid and Tetris, I'll still, I dunno, drink a quart of vodka in honor of it or something.

Well, it IS important to note that he said PLAYING videogames, not making them. It's an interesting catch-22.

Unless he's hardcore enough to say that making things that don't directly benefit glorious society constructively is pointless, in which case, kill him, he's a borg child

Brentai · « **Reply #1358 on:** June 05, 2009, 10:14:21 PM »

He did imply it pretty heavily, yeah.

I really do not want to have much of a debate about a kid with a liberal arts degree from a community college, though. Fuck, I could have done that. I just chose to play video games instead.

Not like he's going to accomplish anything, anyway; most "child geniuses" never do.

Change the world. Kid'll be lucky if he gets to change the prices on a McDonald's drive-through menu.
