    what I wanna know is: can Korra parry?

    I think Parrying is a mechanic I want in every character action game I play after Revengeance

    Parrying made Revengeance way too easy

    I cleared the first few levels on hard (something I shouldn't be able to do in a CAG because I suck at them) and gave up on the game due to boredom

    The part in the video where it kinda goes slow-mo and she hits the mech with a million air blasts? She parried the attack, and when enemies are in a parried state you can do ridiculous moves on them.

    that game would play so very, very differently if you had to block always instead of parry

    I don't know, it doesn't sound like it would be

    I don't know how I would fix Revengeance's problems without basically just turning it into Bayonetta

    I just know that "parry --> slow motion slice their component" got old in like ten minutes

    I have basically only dodged grapple attacks so far, though it probably would have helped fighting monsoon...

    I kinda wish Revengeance had a boss rush mode where I could just re-play the bosses one after another after beating them

    I really wanna do Monsoon again, but my other save is all the way in the sewers still...

    pc version has all boss fights available from the menu after you beat the game, though it isn't a true boss rush

    Also there was recently some news about Bayonetta 2 that I think is pretty cool siliconera.com/2014/09/22/devil-may-cry-3-writer-bingo-morihashi-worked-bayonetta-2/

    Kamiya enlisted the help of one of the Devil May Cry 3 writers for Bayonetta 2.

    I legitimately loved the corny ridiculous dialog in DMC3

    Man I love the scale in W101. Especially in that it will tell you how big some enemies are.

    Giant robot octopus mech? 420m long. 880,000 tons.

    How do you beat it up? With a giant fist, and later some giant claws.

    DMC4 Dante is actually still my favorite version of him and it's a shame the game wasn't focused on him

    He's more mature and knows when to take things seriously, but he's not the mopey bore he was in 2 nor is he the asshole kid from 3 and DmC
    But he's still, like, having a ton of fun with this stuff

    http://youtu.be/gLNu1mWu4y8

    I just think Reuben Langdon really gets Dante and I wish we could have explored the character at this stage of his life

    I probably care way more about Dante than a lot of people do

    My favorite thing is setting fire mines with Durga and then pulling in angels with Kulshedra and then watching them explode and kicking them into the air and flurrying them with Odette to freeze them and then throwing the block of ice at whatever else is bothering me and then maybe finishing things off with some Shuraba fun times.

    I should probably stop holding into Shuraba as a crutch, though.

    I really, really wish the DMC 3 port for the PC wasn't butt. At least give me controller support!

    I, for one, enjoyed the Mako.

    I assume "all the time" means "until you get the Master and Final forms"

    Fuuuck I really want to replay KH2 again, now. HD remix can't come out soon enough. Form combat is fairly mindless but it always looks so awesome

    Man alive

    MAN ALIVE I got better at this game!!!

    That's one particularly nice thing about CAGs, is a lot of them have systems to let you know how much better you've gotten at them

    If I were just a bit better at timing my Ukemi I could probably get Pure Platinum on this bad boy. Maybe... maybe it's time to dive into the deep end!

    My favorite genre, hands down

    Ninja Gaiden was amazing and what turned me onto the whole scene.

    Can't wait for the Legend of Korra one. It's by Platinum, which is great! But it's a hastily fashioned video game based on a childrens TV show, so that's bad. Not exactly a check in the win column that they haven't deigned to show any actual gameplay footage, either, espeically since the game comes out in like less than a month?

    The only thing I'm a bit bummed about with the Korra game is the time period of the show's story that it's meant to be set, which means
    no metal bending I guess.

    it's been pointed out before, but it's really weird that we're getting the final season of korra before we get the game set between books 1 and 2
