Cover Art Comparison - Strategic Logo Placement Edition


So this is the Japanese cover of Super Robot Taisen OG Saga: Endless Frontier recently released here in the states. Although it's pretty tragic that they didn't put KOS MOS (who is in the game) on it, there is a lot of like about this cover. These women are proud of their bodies and they are not afraid to show it. I respect this decision.

And here is the North American cover. Something is missing.

Or covered up rather.

Lame.

I Should Have Known Better and The Future

I got an email from someone who shall remain anonymous. It was titled, Swine Flu Origins. It was someone who I have a lot of trust in, so I took the time to click on it and read what it had to say.

I should have known better than to take that email seriously. This is the same person who once sent me an email explaining why one of our friends was "whipped" by his girlfriend and then included a picture of a woman's vagina with fake dracula's teeth inserted into them. 

These are dark and desperate times. The "economy" is in the shitter. The country is in a state of panic because of the fear of a wide spread epidemic. But I can always count on family and friends to lighten the mood.

Thanks for the laugh,
David

If my plane goes down while headed to LA, tell them I was actually headed for Japan. 

Append - Oh, I forgot to add. Today I got an email at work explaining that you cannot get Swine Flu from eating Pork Products. Nice to know.

I Don't Get It.

So as far as I know, Klonoa is out on store shelves already. It's priced at 29.99 for the Wii. I was seriously debating picking up this game and playing it. I played it at TGS and was fairly unimpressed. I didn't have much time with it being that there was a line, but so I tried it again for the PSX last month, it's a remake of the original. Still, I don't get why it's so sought after. I play platfomers all the time. Sure it's kind of rare, but gameplay wise there's not much new now. I still don't get it. Did I just miss the boat? Or do I need to get further before it really kicks in?

Clue Me In,
David

Suggestions?

We're going to be in LA next month for E3. We'll have the day before E3 to hang out, and also the next three days for food. I'd like some suggestions on what to eat around town. Anyone care to help?

Thanks,
David

The Planets of "Star War: The Old Republic"

I'm scared. When this game comes out, I will buy a PC. When this game comes out, my life as I know it, may end. Check it out.

Batman Combat Trailer

Still looking good... hope the rumors of the games delay aren't true. However, the dev team should do whatever is necessary to ensure that the game is good.

New Prototype Trailer Suggests... Mission Variety?

I have been keeping my eyes on both Infamous and Prototype. They are very similar in concept and gameplay structure yet they both seem like they will offer a unique style of gameplay to the player. Infamous seems heavily focused on platforming with a very focused set of abilities (electricity) and Prototype seems set on over-the-top destruction and gore. I am incredibly excited to have two new open world titles hitting within a month of each other, hell I pre-ordered Protoype over a year ago when it was revealed in Gameinformer. However, I have been worrying a lot about mission variety in both games. We all know that open-world games seem to have trouble engaging the player with new mission types. I was at least comforted a little bit to see this new trailer for Prototype that describes the various mission structures. It doesn't look like there will be a whole lot of variety but the missions do look fun and I can't wait to get my hands on the game in June.
