I really hope that every single one of these people's holidays is completely ruined by an unimaginably intense overbearing sense of guilt over murdering another human being to get a material item.

Christ, isn't Cho Aniki the game with the naked guys everywhere?

This is going to annoy the shit out of every real musician in the world. And you thought it was bad with guitar hero.

Jesus what a douche.

I've been a Nintendo die hard ever since I got an original Game Boy for Christmas as a child. I've owned every Nintendo console/handheld since (except the GB Micro and SP) and I've owned most of the first party games they've made at one point or another. Hardware like the MotionPlus, however, is the kind of the thing that makes me want to put my Wii up on Craigs List.

Lets examine the BEST case scenario for this thing - the scenario in which 3rd parties jump on the MotionPlus in order to produce realistic games.

Remember when the Wii came out, and the first few weeks were amazing, but then we all started growing increasingly irritated at the number of minigame collections that existed because a developer lunged at the chance to use such an innovative controller?

Yeah, well get ready for tons of completely awful games that are essentially clones of one another. Mega Ninja Sword Fight. Supreme Fencing Deluxe, parts I, II, and III. A new Dragon Ball Z game with swords. Harry Potter: Wand Adventures. Kill me.

YEAH PEDOPHILES USE GOOFY GADGETS AMIRITE GUISE LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

I never took out a subscription, but I would buy EGM every month from the ages of 13-16 or so. Printed magazines still offer a lot that online blogs don't/can't - demo discs (OXM let me try out nearly every mainstream Xbox game before I bought it), posters (I still have a gigantic stack of centerfold posters from EGM), a dedicated, and well informed review team that wrote in depth reviews (no offense, guys - you write great reviews, but I still prefer the word of Shoe Hsu and pals).

Does Shoe even work for EGM anymore? It's been years.

Oh crap.

Good riddance.

Good riddance.
