Big Wendy's fan there Gaminggeek?

I used to eat there for lunch all the time at my old job....their crappy fast food is definitely better than McDonald's and Burger King's crappy fast food.

Takeshi Miike: he's making a Phoenix Wright film

While promoting his latest movie, blood-soaked samurai epic 13 Assassins, at the Cannes Film Festival this week, Miike briefly outlined his next project to The Huffington Post.



"It is a very light comedy that I am filming now, a court drama, based on a video game, the Nintendo game DS."

Unfamiliar with Miike's other work? Brutal 1999 horror Audition and wince-inducing assassin romp Ichi The Killer from 2001 are good places to start. Be warned though, you'll need a strong stomach.

Right, so Phoenix Wright enters the courtroom, takes out a katana and chops his own arm off. Maya sees this and her head explodes with blood shooting up through the neck. At this point Edgeworth starts swearing into a TV screen and the judge starts running about the courtroom, naked.

Lol at the System Wars talk.

Oh that sucks man. I'm a big asian food guy....me and my girl go out for asian almost every weekend. Sweet & Sour chicken & 2 Scorpion Bowls and I'm primed for the night.

Ocarina of Time 3D Cubed 3 preview

This project feels more like the complete remaster that fans have requested over the years. The open-ended overworld of Hyrule has certainly benefited from the visual overhaul, more so than the game's dungeons. In particular Kokiri Village, despite being the same size as the original, feels far larger, more vivid and fairy-like than the slightly washed out look of the original. Mystical particles, fairies and the adorable Kokiri children buzz about with excitement and joy in the air, whilst the village houses have been touched up with a lick of paint both inside and out.

A far brighter and less saturated colour palette complements the smoother character models and finer textures. Touches of grey and darker tones have been morphed into a far less grim picture - truer bluer skies, fresher grass and a river you'd love to swim in rather than shaft bodies into. The new hues present a double-edged sword - on one hand there's no denying that it looks great, but there are times where the murkier tones were beneficial to build up atmosphere, especially in the later levels.

Despite the friendlier vibe, the amount of additional detail really shines through, especially when we had the option to go back and relive the source material (before ending up half-asleep on the magnificent bean bag chairs) between sessions of the 3DS version. Comparing the two side by side, there's no question as to how much refinement has gone into every nook and cranny, in particular the existing pre-rendered areas like shop or house interiors, and the more scenic areas like Hyrule Field and Lake Hylia are spot on - new, fresh and inviting without treading too far from the source material. Non-playable characters have also received a slight overhaul; a touch more expressive and detailed, but again familiar and still very much loved.

Does the 3D work? The answer: yes it does, and very well indeed, particularly in the villages and the large open space of Hyrule Field itself, where Link can be seen as a true 3D character immersed within a grand feeling of space. Ocarina of Time 3D’s Hyrule conjures up a heart-warming brew of pure nostalgia, but with autostereoscopic 3D turned on, it once again feels new and immersive.

This is about the only game I'm interested in at the moment.

What in the world is a Scorpian Bowl? Just checked Wikipedia, it's an alchoholic drink. I thought it was a bowl full of scorpians like in Vietnam when they cut out a snakes heart and drink it while its still beating in some vodka.

You are right about Panda Express being the equivalent of McDonalds. In every way.  Their chinese is horrible.

London has bitchin' curry though right? Oh and, on the topic, what's the sushi scene like in London?

Of interest:

- The guy from the Mana series is localizing it.

- They fixed the Water Temple.

- 3D!

- Portable

- There are a billion kids who have no idea what OOT is and are abuot ot be amazed.

What the hell was wrong with the Water Temple? For years I heard people complain about it. I do not remember having any issues with it at all. That upside down stone temple in Mask of Majora was much much harder.
