I didn't think I was very scornful of the glitch. I mentioned that it's easy to avoid, too. I'm not even clear on what "new" solutions Nintendo offered besides the SD card via email. I seem to recall hearing something about a Patch Channel that was never nailed down.
Off Topic: Why the Hell do you want to play FF13 next?!

I skipped the pumpkin shooting too. Since I wasn't going to get that last full heart anyway...

I don't understand how a game as simple as Dungeon Defenders can have so many bugs. It's not like it's an Elder Scrolls game that requires careful management of an insane number of event flags!
And Skyward Sword lost another half a point by the time I finished it (just now!). I tried Fun Fun Island... It was not Fun. It was Angry Angry Island... and I decided I didn't need that last heart anyway.

Hmmm. I don't know why Chris thinks our reviews will clash. I'm currently waffling between giving Skyward Sword a 3.5 or 4, strongly leaning toward the lower score. We'll see what happens once I finish it.
And you definitely got the better deal with Dungeon Defenders on PC. While I believe the PC doesn't have local multiplayer, so that wouldn't work for us, everything else about that version is better. You have patches. We don't. You have ass-tons of free DLC and upgrades. We don't (we don't …

Nick claims you made a grave mistake not choosing the mage... but I think it's only because that's his character. What level have you gotten to - and what level are your characters? Also, did you jump right into hard or insanity or were you like us and just stuck with medium (though weapon selection is much better on hard). Inquiring minds want to know!

Dungeon Defenders is so good, we even got the DLC to it - I still decided to write my review early anyway because technically we defeated it. Coincidence - we usually wind up playing Wednesdays as well - or Saturdays depending on the schedule. I was a bit dubious to start off, but it's really a lot of fun. I don't understand why I'm always the tank, but I'm used to it now.

I need to update my lost list - I actually acquired some used Nintendo games including both Zelda and Zelda II and Rambo. Nelson is currently playing Skyward Sword - I can't wait to see what your dueling reviews look like.

The one difference with the forum is it uses a yahoo box, which is like a rich text editor. Our other comment boxes do not use it. That's probably the cause, Chris has an android phone, I will have him test. Thanks for the info.

I think you mean Action RPGs have never been the genre for gameplay connoisseurs. Traditional Turn-Based games had great potential for strategy and party building, while Action RPGs usually just go for button-mashing.

On the ratings, we have dealt with people rating films ahead of the release date, but our hope is that as more reviews come in, it will even out the artificial high or low ratings. If it looks like there is someone purposefully rating games that are yet to be released, we always have the option of deleting them. But for now, we have no way to disable ratings.
