Disney protagonists as Pokemon Trainers. That's something I'm kinda working on.

Is Game Theory still a SA partner? I just noticed he put out a new video last week on YouTube.

This morning I did the most pitiful run of Mega Man 2 yet. I mean, I finished the game in about an hour and a half, but it was clumsy.

caboose_-1: Really? Wow, I hope none of the shows with them are cancelled (i.e. they find someone else to show their stuff).

Good-bye availability for short-notice SA events, hello San Antonio and marriage!

At the risk of sounding like a complete madman, Jared's review of The Last Story solidifies my stance that reviews shouldn't be above criticism and reviews CAN be wrong. There, I just shattered whatever credibility I had left.
Two-Bit Specialist: I'm not trying to convince anyone of anything, but there are statements that can cause people to write you off as a troll or as an idiot. To the point, the review was unbelievably harsh (and citing Destructoid as an example does nothing, as those guys are a bunch of trolls). Finally, there's no need to be rude.
LousyTactician: It is very possible for a review to have vapid logic and poorly explained reasoning for the verdict it gives a game (read the Wall Street Journal's review of Borderlands 2), however I don't see how Jared's review of The Last Story is an example of this.
I haven't played the game, but Jared's review isn't the only negative review for it I've seen (Destructoid rated it fairly low as well), nothing in his review struck me as ridiculous (like saying it's bad because it's not CoD), and given Jared's history of loving RPGs, Final Fantasy esque ones specifically, he clearly is a part of The Last Story’s target audience. And while there are plenty of commenters enraged that he rated the game as low as he did, others agree with him. Also flaunting how, "This statement is going to ruin my credibility because it’s just SO edgy" won't help convince anyone that you're right.

Pokemon Pearl update: Seen 292 Pokemon (forgot how many I've actually caught). I'm kinda going by order, so now I'm going for the Hoenn wild Pokemon.

Pokemon Pearl update: Seen 277 Pokemon, Caught 178 (these games are more concerned with the former than the latter, unlike previous gens). Still a ways to go. Pokemon left to catch are the ones that show up in swarms and fishing.
