I have SCIV preordered and paid off- the Xbox 360 limited edition, thank you- but I'm still a smidge worried that Namco cared more about the breasts than the gameplay.

Strategy games were quite common in the 90's. Final Fantasy Tactics, Shining Force, Fire Emblem, Orge Battle were the most popular games of that era.
Recently I purchased Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimore of Rift and really enjoy this game. But despite the fact I enjoy Bleach, I collect the manga's, watch English episodes via televison and on occasion read fanfiction of Bleach. So even if the strategy version of Bleach comes out, I don't really think I'll buy it. Yes I think the Bankai arc was awesome and I really am enjoying the Bount arc as well, so being content with both the telvision and manga editon are good enough for now. Maybe I'll rent it, but only to see what the game play is like. Excellent article Tod, I look forward to next week's column. |

Princess Maker 2 was never actually released over here it was cancelled due to controversy over a certain feature in the game's debug menu that allowed the player to view their "daughter" without any clothes on regardless of her current age. The author is no doubt mistaking the leaked beta of the English version that's available at various warez sites for evidence of an actual release. |

Actually, I was mistaking reviews in old gaming magazines for evidence of a U.S. release. I remembered all of the gaming websites having it back in the '90s, so I always assumed it had been officially released. Anyway, there was more to Princess Maker 2's cancellation than unwholesome debug menus. You can read the entire sad story here. |

Why am I excited for Soul Calibur 4? Two words: Darth Vader!

If you start playing your own music on the iPod before opening Song Summoner it'll keep streaming. You can't go through the menus to select songs, but the back and forwards keys work as normal to skip tracks. I didn't even realise it had it's own music...

Ah man 'Princess Maker' isn't coming over? Well, that sucks. But then again some things are best left in Japan. I do remember this game. Some friends way back used to play it on the PC. Of course the guy that owned it was Japanese. Didn't know that the guy that was responsible for it was the one that got in trouble at 'Gainax'. Didn't know it was a 'Gainax' creation. But then again 'Gainax' is the king of the otakus to they were into everything.
Bleach going tactical, interesting. Lupin III game? Hey why not? There was 'Golgo'. I'm going to have to look this up online to see what this game was all about. I'm sure someone has it posted somewhere. As for Square-Enix making a game for the iPod. Now that shocked the hell out of me. Folks are taking gaming to an all new level. |

I'm gonna respond to the Windy x Windam game. You weren't kidding when you said there was a creepily under-dressed boy/girl. Wow! That's about as bad as I've ever seen.
Still, the game looks... dare I say it... decent. |

I don't think anything bad can be said about the hopes that Soul Calibur 4 will be bringing. I've been a fan of the series since SCI, and have seen how the game has evolved over the years. Heck, the additions of Vader and Yoda is enough to want to get the game, forget everything else!

Aaarrrrggghh!!! My eyes! I can't unsee what I've seen!! 
Lets talk about happier things, shall we? How does Yoda/Darth Vader play? Fast/slow, strong/weak? |

Now I feel obligated to look it up... Oh. Yeah, that's pretty bad.
Poor guy. That sounds like a legal nightmare... |

Wow, that is a pretty crazy story. Worst of all, he got absolutely nothing out of it. The last line is pretty funny though: "I've been a bad father, the daughter has turned out poorly. I am returning her to you now." |
