"Pre-order and get pizza!" sounds so ridiculously 90's I can hardly take it seriously.

Remember when TMNT2 for the NES came with a Pizza Hut coupon?

Heads up to Canadians. Looks like the SE for the game will be online only and has popped up on Ebgames and Best Buy (only two places I checked).

They just put some other videos on the game you might want to check out. Apparently, Fiora's VA is one of the options for the MC's battle voice.

Hello Xenoblade thread :D

I'm replaying Xenoblade on the 3DS after getting to Mechonis and getting burnt out, and going through most of the game with a better understanding of everything has made it much smoother for me. I just wanted to ask the thread's opinion of Reyn, and what the best way to use him is. He has a ton of arts and they all seem very useful, so I have to ask which ones are the best? He's got Magnum charge, is that worth a slot?

Actually, I have the same question about most of the characters. It's fun enough to use what I think is good, but I'd like to read about the arts and what kind of character builds you can make in more detail.

Kind of a shame the guy doesn't really know what he's doing in the combat videos. He insists on using Skells despite only having three weapons, and then he uses his melee autoattack exclusively, even while hanging out outside of its range.

The game's so big that there's no space on the disk to include a second audio track. Maybe they'll include it as free DLC, but I wouldn't count on it.

Pretty sure my brother still has said coupon somewhere. I remember taking part in Blockbuster's Take on the World competition and I got a Domino's coupon. I don't think there was a Domino's within 30 minutes of where I lived.

Except it actually does? They don't just magically have completely different expectations. If it's well received over there then it will be here is how always works out.

It was weird, but every kid was probably ecstatic to eat pizza while playing TMNT. The only thing that could have made it better would have been a TMNT Hostess pie for dessert and an ecto cooler to wash it down.

I've been avoiding the thread in case of spoilers. Has it been confirmed if there will be a partial HD install for the disc game? And if so how much will it take?

Either step up to the Special Edition or Shut up.
