Hoping you get a review copy of Injustice,Cary. It looks pretty amazing so far. Nether-realm does good work!

I feel you on buying games at full retail price though. It's difficult to convince me to buy anything "brand new" as well.

Yeah I think Injustice would be a really fun game to review, but I wouldn't get it on my own unless there was a big price drop.  I don't mind paying full price for games if it's one I really want, though.  Like Animal Crossing: New Leaf!  Or the special editions of Tales of Xillia or Project X-Zone!

I'm planning on buying Injustice someday. I don't pay full price for anything anymore. I got bills to pay lol. Here's a question for you. Who's your favorite DC character?

I'm cliche as fuck. It's Batman! Original answer,right? If we want to talk females Power girl, Raven, Cat Woman, Ivy, Star-Fire, and Harley Quinn rank the highest.

PS: That question was obviously for Cary. Deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerp!

One of those nights!

You'll find out who my favorite DC character is in my next blog!  But you're welcome to guess in the meantime!

I've already got Injustice paid off. Looking forward to playing it Tuesday. :D if you get a PS3 review copy we can play sometime.

Aanyways a question. Hmmm weirdest game you ever played?

Weirdest game?  I could go the easy route and say Katamari Damacy, but I'll go a little bit more obscure and say Pu-Ri-Ru-La.  Look it up.

I never really though Katamari Damacy was THAT weird, but that other game I looked up on wikipedia, and yeah it is. That's actually kind of funny i want to play it now.

I wonder where that door goes?

I'm on the fence about Injustice. I'm not really nuts about comic book heroes myself, and the only reason I'm interested in it is because it was made by Ed Boon, the Mortal Kombat guy.

My question: Is it true that you are, in fact, the legendary Bigfoot?

Well I do have big feet, and my toes are long and skinny and look like fingers and are kind of gross.  But I'm not hairy at all.  Nor do I live in a forest. 

And I'm not a Monster Truck either.

Name a game that frustrated you so much that you couldn't finish it and explain why.

Oh there's a lot of games like that!  So I'll just pick one that comes off the top of my head first...Hudson's Adventure Island!

What comic books should i think about getting this week?  I just got my Comixology free marvel #1's, so im working through them but want to get into some others too

I know next to nothing about comic books so you're asking the wrong person.  BUT there is only one comic book series I really got into, and that's Sam & Max.  You probably won't find it at a comic book store since it's old, but you might be able to find the collection book online or maybe at TellTale's Web site.  I highly recommend you look up Sam & Max if you don't know what they are, though.  They're awesome and hilarious.

oh i love sam and max.  the games were always great for a laugh

I love the Sam & Max games.  I'm happy that The Walking Dead is so successful for TellTale, but I'm also kind of sad because I know they'll focus more on that instead of silly stuff like Sam & Max.

Who would make the better Ghostbuster: Luigi or Pac Man?

Probably Pac-Man since he's not so scared of the ghosts.  But Luigi sure is funny in Dark Moon.

Is it true that Lex Luthor is the greatest criminal mind of our time?

I don't know about Lex Luthor, but his lady sidekick in Superman Returns was hilarious.

Kefka is the greatest criminal mind of all time.

How much woood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

Lol, but really, if there is you game you despise so much that you wish it never existed, what would it be? I don't really think I hate any game that much, I just sort of like everything I play.

I don't know if I hate any game THAT much, but there are a lot of games I wouldn't miss if they never existed.  Like a game I reviewed on the PC a long time ago called Postal.

I'm not really a Mortal Kombat fan. I like DC, but I'm not hardcore about it. Fighting games I feel real dedication to start and end with teh Arc System Works lineup, unless you count Melty Blood (which I don't 'cause I haven't played it). Can you convince me to try out Injustice?

Well if I get to review it and enjoy it, then I can convince you to try it.

I eagerly await!

Yeah like I said, it'll all depend on whether or not I get a review copy.  And if I don't, I won't be too upset.  Not a big priority or anything.  I just thought it might be fun to review.

I know I'm late to this, and I apologize, but I do have a two parter question. First, you play a lot fighting games like me. What's your favorite and what do you think can be done to help make them much more acessible to people?

Some of my favorite fighter series include the Soul Calibur games, Smash Bros. series, and Marvel vs. Capcom 1-3.

For the second part of the question, I think you're more qualified to answer that than I am, because you know way more about fighters than me!  But I'll give it a try anyway.

There are two ways that I think game developers can make fighters more accessible to people.  One is simpler controls.  When I first saw Street Fighter 2, I felt very intimidated by the controls.  Six buttons?!?  I only have five fingers.  And once I found out that in order to do special moves you had to move the joystick in certain directions and hit buttons at the same time, I knew that I would never be able to master it.  That's why my favorite fighters, like the ones listed above, have simpler controls.

The other thing I think can make fighters more accessible is a bit less tangible.  Don't make the games so darn hard!  Give the player multiple difficulty levels or reward them simply by playing and having fun, and encouraging them to try out all the characters.  Again, my favorite fighters listed above are adept at doing this without dumbing down the game too much for experts, I think.

And that's all I can think of to say on that subject.  --Cary

Thank you for the response. Actually, for the second question, I think your more qualified to ask than me which why I posed it too you. I think seasoned fighitng game players like myself can learn a thing from other players with differing perspectives. The improvments to make fighting games acessible, while very nice and noble in gesture, largely come from hardcore fighting enustaists which may not always be what's best.

Thanks, I like your current gamerpic, by the way. :)

This is one of my favorite questions to ask, so I'll propose it to you as well as the others.

IF you could play any three games again as if you were playing them for the first time and knew nothing about them, what games would they be and why?

Oh, probably some of my favorites like FF6, GC Animal Crossing, or Link's Awakening.  Hopefully I would still iike them as much as I do now.
