[Wii] Red Steel

What is it with so many gamers, that they don't actually want to have fun when they play games.
It's a mystery to me.

As for me, I don't really like Ubisoft at all, but I must admit that this game sounds, really, really interesting. Not just because it uses the Revolution controller, but the game itself (the respect factor, having to aim precisely and efficiently, swordfighting, interactivity, etc) and the possibilities that the controller opens up for a game like this.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

The people at Game Informer who did play the game basically called it fucking incredible. Not that I trust their opinions particularly, but they're more well-informed than any of us, so I'm inclined to believe them before the likes of Megalith or BK, who probably haven't been in the same state as the controller before.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I remember Infernal once calling the original Mario game for the NES a tech demo. Ne'er a truer word was spoken, it was very much a tech demo. But it still stands as a shining achievement in video gaming, and to this day is still an incredibly fun game to play. More than a lot of the games we see nowadays.

How ya doing, buddy?

"What about the poor folks in wheelchairs?"

They can sit down and play it. I'm sure walking is more enjoyable when you can stand, too, but it's something they have to deal with. Don't go blaming Nintendo for handicapped people they did nothing to.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I was actually reading EGM a few weeks ago (not to suggest I subscribe, I got it for free somehow) and somebody wrote in about the Revolution.
Apparently they had some disability (similar to lacking arms, but I don't think that's it exactly), and they might actually be able to play video games again with the Revolution.
Thought that was cool. I'll post the letter if I bother to find it later.

I was speaking idiomatically.

"You know, I was thinking about this for a good few minutes. What kind of physical disability would bar you from using a videogame controller except Revolution's?"

I'm not sure, I can't remember. But the kid who wrote in certainly seemed to think such was the case.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

I think you're underestimating the length of the cord. From pictures I've seen, it looks like a fine length.
In the Rev video, too, that Japanese fellow seems to have no trouble swordfighting with it, and with well-exaggerated motions. And from pictures I've seen, I think it may be longer now (comparing two now, looks that way). Though I'm really not sure, that's just how it seems. I have no measurements.

FELIPE NO
