Come to think of it, did anyone ask Sony what *their* attitude toward used games is going to be. Because if they confirmed used games will be business as usual on the PS4, then I have a feeling the relationship between Microsoft and Sony is currently along the lines of:

"B-b-but you said we were gonna do this TOGETHERRRRRR! You cheated! Cheater!"

So, I guess Microsoft is giving some of the proceeds of used game fees to publishers and/or retailers? Which explains why retailers are still hyping this thing up?

In other words, there is a Bond Villain somewhere high up over at Microsoft.

Ugh. WORST TIMING! I've been wanting to get myself a GBA SP, but I currently have no money to spend.

If I remember correctly, there was but it never made it to the US. I could very well be wrong, though. Still wouldn't mind more whichever form it comes in.

What I'd like:
Announce Versus for holidays (a stretch, but a nice surprise) and I'd also like them to bring something back from the grave.

Dewprism 3? :P

The addition of voices took a little getting used to (as is always the case when classic characters get voices. See: Zidane in Dissidia). But it was particularly exciting to explore the world of FFIV from a completely different perspective. I do hope if an FFVI remake is in the works, it will be given a similar approach.

So with the console not being clearly aimed for the Japanese market that means that JRPGs are gonna keep being stuck on handhelds and once in a while there's gonna be a big title on PS4? At least that's how everything seems to point out, and I don't see having a problem with that right now.

Completely agree. If Ni no Kuni was on the Vita, I probably would have beaten it by now.

Well that's a given, I'm just saying I hope things work out before this is released.

If this thing does get released and Gamestop does carry it, I hope I'm not working there anymore because there is no way I would be able to sleep at night knowing I had even a small hand in unleashing this monster on the public.

What's this "when we have more information" BS? YOU MADE THE CONSOLE YOU SHOULD HAVE ALL THE INFORMATION YOU NEED.

One of my favorite tracks in my playlist:

FF Mystic Quest - Battle Medley

The music in MQ is pretty good, but what really does it for me is the fact that the game holds the most nostalgia for me of all the SNES games I've played. First RPG I ever played. Not counting the ten minutes of the NES Bard's Tale it took for me to be totally lost and confused.

BONUS! DOOM CASTLE + LAVA DOME REMIX

If the used game thing is exactly as it sounds, then nobody will care about the XBox One, because Gamestop and Best Buy won't bother stocking it. Even if Microsoft were to offer some of the used game fee to the retailers, it wouldn't matter because nobody would want to buy used games.

Basically, if Microsoft's goal with the XBox One was to take another step back from the games industry, they will certainly succeed.

This was more directed to a wider audience than gamers. Gotta sell that thing to the masses son!

But it wasn't, really. If anything, they decided to reduce their audience to one single demographic.

"Hey bros! We got Kinect and sports, we got TV and sports, we got cars, we got this cool time bendy game. Did we mention we got sports? HALO BITCHEZ!! Oh, we're done. PSYCH! CALL OF DOOOTY, SON!"

Whenever doctors offer me 5-day antibiotics, I always insist on the 10-day dosage instead, or else it completely fucks up my stomach for the entire time I'm on them.
