Alright, gotta get my act together and get a post done on my blog; I've missed a whole week. Just for my own reference...
* Trailers from CAPCOM's "Captivate 2012" event. Still don't like Dante re-design. I mean, really* Two free DLC to ME3 owners in coming months - MP DLC dropped this week, ending DLC in summer ( Read more... )

Oh... That's a good question. Of those four, probably the underdogs - Atlus.

Squaresoft has a sold track record, but things when to shit when they merged with Enix. The last few Squaresoft games stand out as being some of my favorites, while Squeenix Square-Enix is yet to produce anything compelling.

Capcom has some beautiful indie titles (Okami, the Viewtiful Joe series) and some solid big name titles (DMC, Street Fighter, Resident Evil/Biohazard, Mega Man, Gyakuten Saiban), a slew of arcade titles, and even produced one of my favorite Zelda titles (Minish Cap) which probably puts them in second place.

Konami produced a rhythm game giant (DDR), some of the best survival horror games on the market (Sillent Hill), some of the most well-written games out there (Metal Gear series), one of my favorite indie games (Zone of the Enders), and also has some arcade classics (Frogger!) under their belt... but they also pick up a bunch of official license games that just... aren't any funWhat sets Atlus apart is that each of their games is an ( ... )

Which are your favorite Squaresoft games then?

Okami's great, I've played it once. And everyone's played Street Fighter.

Minish Cap? Seriously? I totally prefer a Link to the Past but that's Nintendo.

Played every damn Silent Hill there is, until they sold out to the American companies. ... Haven't actually played Metal Gear Solid.

Only game from Atlus that I've played is Catherine and I never managed to finish it. Made me too uncomfortable.

And, you're welcome.

Oh... that's tough. From the Final Fantasy series, VI and IX. Chrono Trigger, and I actually enjoyed Chrono Cross. Vagrant Story. The Bouncer was strangely entertaining. Kingdom Hearts, before it became a cash cow under Square-Enix. Final Fantasy Tactics Advance. Oh, and Xenogears.

Oh, my favorites of the Zelda series are Link to the Past and Majora's Mask. But I was surprised by how much I liked Minish Cap.

Catherine is definitely a strange game, but it's worth sticking with it, if you can.

Yes and no. I'm a master of cryptography. Kiyosumi's just a dumbass.

Oh. This is immensely interesting.
Tell me, what is a "P3:FES" and in what country is "PSN"?

I'm just screwing with you, Sanada.

P3:FES is "Persona 3: FES" - it's a video game. I think the "FES" is short for "festival." And PSN isn't a country, it's an online store - "Playstation Network." =]

Minami-kun, you're spending your time out here on the cruise doing work related things? Sound like such a hard worker.

Ah... well, I am being paid to be here on the understanding that I would keep doing blog posts while I was here. I haven't been working too hard, though, since I'm just now getting around to doing it a week later...

Aah. So you're here on a working holiday like I am. :)
Well it's good that you're not working too hard and you're at least enjoying yourself on the cruise. It's goot to spend some of Atobe's money once in a while.

Yep. Slaving away in luxury. =]

If we put aside for a moment that he's your employer... do you get along with him? Atobe's never really noticed bothered me, but we had no contact mutual captain respect, or something.

Minami, do my ears deceive me, or have you been playing some sort of rhythm game late into the night?

...More importantly, I heard the rumours that "k1llscr33n" is rather proficient with computer hacking, is this the case? If it is, I may need your assistance shortly.

[ooc: I just realised Inui and Minami are neighbours!]
