Ehh, those are some really common voice actors, Niu.  You could just as easily say that it's a Gundamfest with Heero, Jesus Yamato, Duo, Athrun, Gato, and Loran.

(Yes, I realize this isn't changing the yaoi point at all, but then the cast lineup pretty much made that a given)

You miss the point. Using common actors is one thing, I can cite a Gundamfest out of so many things. But copy and pasting actors from a single show to another right after the earlier one finished however is a rare practice and likely to attract suspicion. (For example, did you see a show or a game right after Gundam W finished reusing the identical cast of the 5 boys, despite all the fan girl craze and it would be practical to pick on their wallet?) Only products like Angelique would go that far, and those are the ones that milks the fan girls out front.

Eh, that feels mostly coincidental; Soichirou and Midorikawa had pretty small roles in Geass in the big picture, I certainly don't associate them with their CG chars, whereas they've played hordesof popular fangirl bait characters in the past.  Sakurai's been playing Cloud in KH and the Complication for a while now, so any Geass association there is pure coincidence, since let's face it, there was no way in hell they could leave Cloud out of this.  That really just leaves Fukuyama and Wakamoto, and Wakamoto's been playing this sort of over the top hammy villain for ages.  Maybe they got Fukuyama for the Geass tie in with Emperor Wakamoto and Cloudzaku, but then Onion Knight sounds pretty different from Lelouch so it's pretty easy to miss.

Tie ins..... ahhhh.... If you are talking about tie ins in general, just look at this chart

Morikawa-Sakurai-Fukuyama-Midorikawa-Seki
      |                        |        __|_     ___|__
      |                     Paku     |      |   |        |
      |                       Ishikawa   Houshi--Ishida
      |________________________|

The only thing that out do this in the season would be Starry Sky, which is very impressive.

April? Damn, quick turnaround.

Also, Zoids? Zoids?

Also also, if I never see a non-Astray CE Gundam again it will be too soon.

Yes Shale, Zoids. Fuck yes. About time.

Except that they used Genesis, not one of the older and largely better series. I want Genobreaker in my SRW kthxbai.

There needs to be SOME trainwreck to keep the peoples excited while Code Geass doesn't drop into a SRW.

PSP it is.
This is the adeptation of the crappy manga .hack//LINK
Where we see getting OHKOed on ch.1 despite the Bracelete....... Than Tsukasa poping out of nowhere and being unresonabelly emo and every other crap on the book.
Most of all, Ovan is on our side this time, this should explain how fucked the new enemies is going to be as they now have to out boss Ovan in the degree of bossness.

It's like the manga-ka retconned everyone's personality. And I mean everyone. I see Haseo is back to being Mr. Emo PKK as well. The "Hey, why don't we have what happened to Kite in the first game happen to the main character in this game, where KITE takes ORCA'S place! BRILLIANT!"

-facepalm-

Should've stopped at Project .Hack// and never go the G.U. way in the first place.

Speaking of which I need to see if I can still find the novels for the games. Graet reminder!

Hey, hey. I liked G.U. It was a step forward for .hack (Sakaki excluded). I guess they just couldn't decide where to go from there.

SaGa 2 (aka FF Legend 2) getting a 3D remake.

Important to note that the lead human seems to be wielding a CHAINSAW in one of the screencaps. I never played FFL2, were chainsaws available in the original game?

Also, as a recent SaGa fanboy: *sweeeeeeet!* Looks FF3DS-ish, I'd really like to play it. *hopes for an English release*

Yeah, Chainsaws were available, but they sucked.

But yeah, I'd buy that in English also.  FFL2 was the best of the original 3, and still holds up well today.

So far, nope.

Though, for the SaGa remake... It felt underwhelming if that is Kawazu's 20th anniversary surprise.... and it better let God have a cameo appearance. We have to see his sexy hat in 3D action.

Eh, I think FFL3 is the best of the original 3, but... it's kind of generic, so I'm really glad they picked FFL2 instead.  It's a game that with a bunch of extra polish and stuff could turn out being a notable improvement.

Did I mention polish when talking about a SaGa game?  Oops~

Chainsaw was awesome because of its hilarious glitchyness. As I recall, Instead of being ID that worked on targets of N defense and below, it was instead N defense and above (oops!). I remember Chainsawing Venus in half. Good times.
