I know I'm not the only JoJo fan, so get hyped!

Fucking Za Warudo all up in this bitch.

Loving the graphics of this game.

Glad to see the Steamroller in there.

I would be more excited if I was any good in those games. I love the story and all but... eh.

I remember reading that CC2 registered the All Star Battle name in America and Europe a while ago, so hopefully that means they intend to release to the rest of the world.

EDIT: It was Namco-Bandai themselves, not CC2, that registered the All Star Battle name.

Very interesting Ashens video about gaming joysticks

Fire Emblem: Awakening drops today, hopefully the roads aren't too terrible so I can drive half an hour to my nearest Wal Mart and pick it up.
If you haven't already, you guys should check out the demo on the eShop, it's looking really good.

Ashens must spend a lot of time on his knees in front of his couch.

Dear God. I just played Blazblue for the first time, and Hakumen is ridiculously OP, it's not even the matter of trying to time out by having the higher HP, he is just too powerful. His moves take about 25% of my health, and he can do his supermoves any time.

In other news, I finally beat Event 51 in Melee. I usually main Link, but he couldn't do it, so instead I wanted to think like a tournyfag, and I used Ness, and my God, he was so OP as well, he could dodge so many of their attacks, and the fact he was small, agile, and quick at punching made it so much easier.

It took me years to do it with Link, and then on my 3rd or 4th go with Ness (a character I thought was terrible) I beat them easily.

Now only 49, and 51 to go.

What balances his power is the fact that he is rather slow compared to the other characters (well, maybe not Tager). He also has a very different type of special cauge which burns out pretty quickly. Just watch out when he goes to his Infinity mode because then he can do the infinite supers. He isn't as hard as he might seem.

I just realized, in most zombie games, the zombies are never called zombies. It's always, the living dead, or the risen dead, or things like that. It pisses me off, especially if the game is supposed to take place in a modern setting. It's nearly impossible for me to believe that somehow, in this modern setting game, there is no such thing as zombie literature, movies, games, etc.

Is event 51 the one where you fight gigabowser, ganondorf and mewtwo (I think) ?

Usually because they aren't zombies in the first place.
Resident Evil. Surprising how many people think "wahwah RE6 has no Zombies" despite the fact that they weren't ever dead to begin with. The T-Virus was developed to infect humans to be essentially, a drone army. The way viruses work is by infecting the host to operate differently but they never kill off the host. This is the same with a computer virus or human virus. They can't kill the host because they need it the host in order to survive. How this comes back to Zombies, is that with games like Resident Evil or The Walking Dead TV show, they can't have people coming back from the grave. Viruses wouldn't be able to go through the soil and burial case resurrect a dead host. So they infect the living to operate differently (a large hunger for brains) which is why we never really had Zombies. Compared to George A Romeros 'Night of The Living Dead' which used alien type zombies which operate different to viruses. If it's not alien or infected humans then it's usually magic.....and if not magic, then through the power of Michael Jacksons dancing.
Even for some modern setting games like Left 4 Dead they do talk about zombies. The back story of Zoey is that she stayed up watching zombie horror movies. So there are those medias that do acknowledge zombies within their own universe. For others like Resident Evil or Dead Rising, they never use the word zombies, but zombie-like in traits.

Yep. When it came to Master and Crazy hand, I used DK and spammed up B (his recovery spin). Prety decent and large hit box area. Compared to this though....

When was the last time a game actually featured zombies? Most of the time, you're dealing with infected.

Zombies Ate My Neighbors?

EDIT: More recent, Zombie Revenge. Funny thing, both games were on Sega platforms.
