Rep has always been pointless. Get rid of it, or just stop caring.

Berserk is one anime I had to watch subs because the English voices were terrible. Also, on the topic of Berserk, it was indeed many, but it had the worst ending of any anime I have ever seen, like good god why?

S32, you're kind of being a dick. He's entitled to his own opinion, and you don't need to come here to whine and bitch about it.
Anyone who calls God of War sh** is deserving of ridicule.

Risking offtopicness, has anyone here heard of Fakemon or Pokemon Spriting?

Back on topic, here's a list of my Pokemon blue Elite Four team that almost made it but I was too broke and didn't have enough Hyper potions:

Blastoise, Lvl 80 or so
Rapidash, Lvl 60 or something
Nidoqueen, Lvl 57
Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, all lvl 50-70

Moltres and Zapdos were total cannon fodder, Nidoqueen was a bawss, Blastoise was a bawss, Rapidash owned the place, and Articuno was like the Glass cannon.
My favorite fakemon is tentaquil.

We almost got a good Halo movie. It was supposed to be directed by Peter Jackson, but 20th Century Fox cancelled the project for some reason.

Also he draws explicit pics of Sesame Street characters.  I'm of the opinion that that should be punishable by electric chair with extreme prejudice.
Someone has to uphold rule 34.

The same reason Hollywood keeps releasing sequels and comic book movies, it's safer. Look at Bulletstorm; it was a great game and got great reviews, but it didn't do so well sales-wise. People don't want to waste money on a game they might not like, especially in a tough economy, so they're less likely to try something new. Call of Duty meanwhile keeps breaking sales records by giving gamers more of what they want, which is more Call of Duty. They add some new features like new weapons, new killstreaks, new game modes, etc,  update the graphics and maybe continue the campaign mode storyline, and people will buy it because they liked the last one. The next Call of Duty is actually going to be changing things up a bit by being set in the near future and having a single-player mode with some actual player choice. But, Sys32 is right, military fps games are just a niche market, albeit a large one, there's still tons of other games, and the dominance of military fps games does not mean the death of innovation in gaming.

why not try and blend MMORPG elements with shooters? have players group up to take down specific groups etc. and give the bosses more stuff to do instead of just shooting, I mean come on people are more creative then that these days.
I believe it's already been done


A military FPSMMORPG complete different classes, city raids and stuff? please link O.o I was thinking about how the classes would work etc.



-Medic (Med kits/Needles/Injectors, healer/dps)
-Sniper (Sniper rifles, long range burst dps)
-Gunslinger (pistols/revolvers, close range burst dps)
-Heavy gunner (Chainguns/Rocket lauchers, AoE dps/tank)
-Soldier (Machine guns/SMG's, close range sustained dps)
-Demolisher (mines/c-4/grenades, AoE dps/tank)
-Commando (Shotguns/rifles/knives, close range dps)

Fallout is a great scfi RPG, and so is Mass Effect, though I can't speak from experience so much on that one.


My point is they are selling basically the same game to people who continue to fork out money for the same stuff. There is not much changing in the genre so why do people continue to buy the games?


Pokemon has changed over the years

>10-year-old kid sets out to become a Pokemon master by collecting all the gym badges and eventually defeating the Champion. Also, at some point he has to stop an evil team that wants to use Pokemon for nefarious purposes.

This is just one genre. Genres will always look similar to each other and have similar plotlines. They're called cliches and they suck, but the public like them for some reason

Take, for example, the RPG market

Most of the JRPGs out there, especially the famous ones, follow this kind of route:

Normal kid, usually aged 10-13, is tasked with saving the world through some means or another, and does so

This easily fits:
- Golden Sun series
- Pokemon series
- Final Fantasy series
- Digimon series

and debatably fits:
- Luminous Arc series
- Radiant Historia
- Tactics Ogre series
- Dragon Quest series

and many others

The thing that separates these is graphics - some have 2D, some have 3D. Besides that, the core plotline is the same, battles are turn-based, yadda yadda

The point is, nothing's original any more. It's how you wrap up the core with other things, like graphics, sound, other features, gamepaly. That's what makes it unique


And FPS lost that a long time ago, in my opinion
FTFY


All the good RPGs are western these days, like the Witcher and Elder Scrolls games.


Also, this thread is totally ripped from a Cracked article.

Ergo Proxy, Ghost in the Sheck: S.A.C., Cowboy Bebop, Gurren Lagann, Full Metal Alchemist, Samurai Champloo, Black Lagoon, and Darker than Black are probably my favorite anime.
really? you like Gurren Lagann too? i'm bedazzled. for me the anime's confusing.
One word: Kamina
Honestly, Simon is the real badass of the series.
But Kamina had the best lines
Not all the best lines.

Lovely blocked video you've got there

Not in my country! Lrn2 proxy.

I   guess it depends on your taste.  I usually prefer dubs, but there have   been animes that were so badly voiced that I had to switch over to the   subbed version.
Likewise, it's mostly older animes though. Admittedly, the Japanese dub of TTGL makes GIGAAAA DURIIIIILLLL BREAKAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! sound a lot cooler than in the English version.

You can't hate teenagers just because a group of them are being dicks.

And Madman, being a conservative doesn't make you dumb, either.
But being liberal sure does!
