Nope, Media Vision is third party.  Sony themselves own the rights to Wild Arms though, which is Sei should start saving up $400 right now if he hasn't already.

That makes more sense, but it's still kinda what-inducing.

Wizard of Oz RPG? Now I really need to get a DS that has two working screens. Hoping for many flying monkeys to ruthlessly slay.

Anyways, much hissing and spitting at Sony owning the rights to Wild ARMs, since I never plan on buying a PS3 unless I hit a lottery jackpot or something.

Funny all the Media Vision hate in that forum...

Seriously, what the hell? Is it British humor to name something like this Skynet, or bureaucratic idiocy? Might as well get to work on the self-awareness chip and the "really angry at humans" algorithm.

Anyone who thought any system like that upon very conception was not going to be called Skynet is fucking lying to themselves.  OH MY GOD IT IS LIEK AMAZING AND SHOCKING THAT THIS ANTI-MISSILE DEFENSE SYSTEM THAT WAS DESIGNED TO BE PUT INTO ORBIT WAS CALLED STAR WARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  ONLY IN AMERICA

Hell if I know, I've only played MGS and FF7. I can't really say whether the other games belong on the list or not, though FF7 sure doesn't.   
Don't think of it as a novel. Think of it as a chance to retroactively win every argument you have ever walked away from.

The only game I can say even comes close to deserving being put on that list is Half Life 2.  Mario 64 has been improved upon again and again, Goldeneye was good when it first came out but does not stand up to the test of time, and I don't think I need to explain why the rest of that tripe doesn't deserve to be on the list.

Well, it's a popularity contest, so you have nobody to blame but people in general for once. That said, I wasn't surprised by too much there, although Double Dash being the only console Mario Kart absent is high fail.

Wait, I thought Media Vision was Sony 2nd party? Meaning they could only make games for Sony?

...

:psyduck:
That obviously ended when they stopped being published by Sony and started getting published by XSeed.

Uh, XSeed is just the American company that localises the games.

XSeed published it in America didn't they?  That would mean they either payed Sony a chunk for it or there is more flexibility in Media Vision's contract .

AFI's top 100 movies in 10 different categories. The more I look at it the more it strikes me as peculiar. They have a category for "Gangster" and "Courtroom-drama" but no "Horror" or "Comedy"? Really? And where the FUCK is the Shawshank Redemption?

AFI has definitely done a more extensive list for comedies (100 years 100 laughs, I believe) and I think they had one that was 100 years 100 thrills that would cover horror.

I hate obesity reports regardless, for a number of reasons.  Main one being they don't factor in how many people are naturally built that way and are COMPLETELY HEALTHY despite being "obese" (this isn't to say there aren't plenty of people who are actually obese, naturally, but the number gets inflated.)

Either way...heh <_<
