I wouldn't call it being "corrupted." To be honest, while he isn't any more likeable, he's at least a more respectable human being--even if he is obsessed with a dark, dangerous business--being an incredibly efficient meth lord than he was as an underachiever. At least he's being great at...
Yeah; Breaking Bad is already one of the greatest shows of all time.
I'd go as far to say that it's doing for television what Citizen Kane did for film.
^Not being able to play the first two only affects one's experience pertaining to the game's narrative, which really isn't that big of a deal, especially considering the fact that the ME trilogy's narrative(s) are some of the most cliche-ridden pieces of soap opera horseshit ever to befoul the...
You clearly don't know who you're talking to, so let me clue you in: I am not in danger. I AM the danger. A guy opens his door and gets shot, and you think that of ME? No! I am the one who knocks!
You have a fair point; while it didn't start with FFX, FFX is probably the shining example of the large amount of sap shoved into most of the "modern" Final Fantasy titles. While melodrama and romantic sap are suitable to children, Final Fantasy's core fanbase has grown up, and it's time for...
The series never really had much of an identity as its own, anyway. The mechanics varied wildly from game to game, unfortunately at the cost of the series never "growing up:" Final Fantasy has always been a fairly experimental series, but it has never been a progressive series. New mechanics...
They also need to get Vangelis involved with the remake (Well, if they had the budget, of course). Nobuo's great and all, but based on the sound of all of his recent work, I fear if they got him involved again and no one else the whole thing would have a fully orchestral and/or rock sound and...
You're not taking into account the Wii U, which will--apparently--come out next year, and exceed the technical capabilities of the PS3 and 360. Considering that Nintendo is really pushing third-party development and is trying to get more 18+ consumer-targetted titles on the console, in addition...
Seeing as Fallout 3 was complete shit (As Bethesda RPGs generally are), I doubt Square-Enix would want to ruin their reputation among expert circles more than they already have by emulating the work of the company that is single-handedly killing the role-playing genre, aesthetically or...
Mechanics: 7/10
The turn-based and ATB games were some of the best of their kind, and most of the older games tended to offer a variety of sidequests, a sense of challenge, and a fair amount of exploration (By JRPG standards). FFXIII is pretty shit in this regard, though.
Plot: 5/10
Some...
It isn't as simple as "clones and created life;" it's the manner in which the existentialism/philosophy of created life (What makes us "human") is explored within these stories. FFVII is quite similar to Blade Runner in this regard, and FFIX moreso (The plight of the Nexus 6 replicants is...
Oh yeah, spoilers. Read at your own risk.
Some of the later Final Fantasy games owe so much to Blade Runner they could be considered partial adaptations of the film. First and foremost, compare:
Why does this sound so familiar? Oh, right:
And what do Aerith and Tifa's themes sound...
Ugh. Zack Snyder is going to ruin it. He already turned Watchmen into the very thing the comic book set out to satire, and he'll probably shed any and all of Superman's depth (What it means to be alone and different from everyone else in the world, the responsibility and burden of being...
Yeah, I miss the melee weapons too; nothing beats running around with a crowbar and breaking office furniture. But that's a miniscule flaw in an overall excellent game.
