Well, I guess if copy and pasting counts as jokes, more power to the lot of ya. Yikes.

Next time I'll just use an English name, since Japanese frightens ya'll so much, and nobody will be able to find the game on the Indie store. :)

For discussion sake, wouldn't something pronounceable make more sense? I guess that would make you look less hardcore and tarnish that internet indie cred.

Yeah, calling it [まもって騎士] on a predominantly English-speaking forum makes a lot more sense than calling it Mamotte Knight... :sarcasm:

The game is listed in Japanese on the store, I copy and pasted it so anyone interested could know what to actually look for.. you'd find nothing searching for Mamotte Knight. I'm sorry if that's offended you all so deeply. I will refrain from further recommendations since they're hardly appropriate for this particular forum and anytime I push something left of center, the same half dozen people practically turn into monkeys flinging their own shit at each other trying to get their licks in on me.

Maybe it'd be even slightly amusing if you guys ever had fresh material. The "indie cred" joke again? You guys don't really reach very far.

I got it too, but never actually tried the demo. Is this something I want to actually redeem? The fact it has Old Spice integrated in the game is not too encouraging.

I have to admit I never try the indie games with the Kanji names. I always assume for some reason they are all in Japanese and won't be playable. Guess it wouldn't kill me to try a demo on them once in awhile and find out.

Or you could make your recommendations (which many of us appreciate) and just not get personally offended if people make a joke or two. :shrug:

I don't get the argument. He provided a link to the Japanese marketplace. He used the name and described it. There's a trial game. Just because he didn't go even further to provide a link to a video or blog post with a rough English name and he's burned at the stake.

I guess it's just a history of Pixy being on the defensive about stuff like this because of events in the past. It's all good, guys. At least Pixy's bringing us things to question instead of just questions.

Could you point to the posts where we "burn him at the stake"? I only see a few jokes about the title. Many of us indicated interest in the game and are thankful for the information. Are jokes about Japanese typography verboten around here or something?

I'm not offended, it's just really obnoxious. Save that shit for 4chan/other if you gotta get it out that badly.

Note the edit. I had to go back and re-read the situation to refresh my terrible memory of the chain of events of the last few hours.

I'd rather amend my post than totally remove the contents.

:lol: This is DVDTalk, it kinda comes with the territory. If you think it's bad here, and you're feeling extremely brave, try checking out the forums at a place like Gamespot, GameFAQs, or so on. Those places will make us seem like a bunch of Nobel laureates by comparison. ;)

Re: XBLA Thread Part 400 - Pinata's got a brown nose
 
Ah, that's my mistake for assuming this forum was a little more mature than those places, then. :)

Carry on, your CTRL-V keys are probably lonely at this point.

Can we all just fuck each other and get this sexual tension out of the forum? Then we can get back to discussing the things that matter, like Zeno Clash.

PixyJunket 05-17-10 03:50 PM

Re: XBLA Thread Part 400 - Pinata's got a brown nose
 
Okay, that actually made me laugh. :lol:

Isn't Zeno Clash that first person beat 'em up? I didn't check it out cause it didn't seem like an idea that would work well.

I think the fucking is what caused all the animosity in the first place.

Well, it's at least responsible for the awkwardness.

It did get a little awkward there for a while...

Zeno Clash is actually really well done in my opinion. It's super weird, but everyone should at least give the demo a spin. Love it or hate it, it's at least a unique game.

I tried the demo for the Old Spice game, and well.... if anyone wants my code for the full game, say the word and I will PM it to you.
