Sexy pixels like that can be found on not DS Neo-Geo emulators, Rev.

"Should hype be taken into account in reviews?"

I haven't listened in to the podcast, but I'll give me two cents.

It absolutely should not. Taking hype into account in a review is ridiculous. Hype has nothing to do with a game, and it's really a personal thing.

I'm really sorry for sounding like I'm recording from a truck across the street.

I know you didn't ask me, but I'd like to see Lionhead/Molynuex take on turnbased X-Com.

I think it would challenge them, and it would end up being a very refreshing emotional take on systematic alien defense.

@Rev: Just heard that one of the things you didn't like about Fallout 3 was that you couldn't beat the game without killing someone (unlike the previous ones).

I haven't played it yet (its sitting on my shelf already) but in this week's Major Nelson podcast, he talks with one of the developers and, unless I misinterpreted it, he says that one of the things they kept from the previous ones is that you could beat Fallout 3 with only killing in the intro chapter, or whatever.

Don't you think its possible to do this if you have the appropriate skills?

Concerning the Gradius stage for LBP: The reason the ship follows the sackboy would probably be that it's bound to a brain who's instructions is to follow the Sackboy when he's near.

If you try playing this with two or more players within the ship the controls are so odd! :)

"I'm really sorry for sounding like I'm recording from a truck across the street." Hhahhahahhaaaaaa...

I'm with Conrad in that I even sometimes even called an ambulance if I hit someone in my car particularly bad in GTAIV. I like to be immersed and not tainted in the process.

P.s. Cheer up Topher!!

I can think of a sentence with the words "podtoid", "people", "right arm" and "give" in it.

Love this pod.
