Joe Brassey, one of the authors of this thing, is a guy I've been gaming with for a few years. He's an excellent writer, and has finally gotten himself published. Alongside such gentlemen as Neal Stephenson and Greg Bear. If you like historical fiction, then give it a shot. I've been reading snippits of Joe's stuff on this project for awhile and it looks solid. [/plug plug]

I read these stories and what I see in my head is Gate.

I'm not sure how to feel about that. <_<

It is more the description of things he is clearly physically capable of. Reads like a pretty tall guy with some reach and length to his stride.

Yes, that is definitely Gate. Awesome read. "Ma'am, I can do anything I want. I own a game store."

This. Acts of Gord is absolutely amazing. XD Personal favourite is where he gets the laws changed. >.>

The Acts of Gord is some serious Nostalgia. And unlike some video games I've played this nostalgia aged pretty well. Thanks, MC.

EDIT: I mean, you're a cunt. Or something. Fuck it.

Haha, watched this yesterday, and Shulk's line was possibly my favourite part of the whole video. XD

I have to say, Phoenix Wright is done completely brilliantly. He actually changes the battle music to appropriate phoenix wright music at key lawyerly junctures.

Although, there is a snarky part of me, after watching that video, who wants to say "So: you couldn't think up enough moves for Megaman, eh?"

Dark Holy Elf · « **Reply #570 on:** October 15, 2011, 01:00:09 AM »

Thinking up moves for Megaman would take up valuable time that could be used to give Inafune the finger.

Note this is actually a decent starting point for the series.
