The thing that you also have to remember about Japanese games is that for the most part, we only get the ultra-big-budget, incredibly mainstream Japanese games. It's sort of like judging all American cinema based only on Hollywood blockbusters and shitty parody movies.
Of course, there's also lots of smaller Japanese games that wouldn't do well here just because American and Japanese taste are so incredibly different, even before taking actual quality into account.

Can I just say that I've been doing the whole =/= representing "does not equal" for a while around work and with friends and always get "WTF is that?". Thank you good sir for perpuating this as mainstream.
One friend even made me make her a macro in Word for this. It is now just that awesome.
I don't know boolean strings or whatever. I just appropriated it from math.
So != represents "does not equal"?
!= is a boolean operator in C and its derived languages, that returns "true" if the value on the left is not equal to the value on the right, and false if the values are the same.
I seem to remember Pony telling a story where he punched a guy in the face at a bar because he liked Lolita by Nabokov. Did this happen or am I just imagining things?

Did Pony tell the story, or did the events of the story actually happen?
No see because the person liked Lolita he has a thing for little girls and he probably just came back from raping like five thousand underage girls in an underground fighting tournament

The whole point of lolita was that it was about his bizzare, sensual, tender infatuation with a little girl. That's what made it so fuckin' creepy, that he wasn't a horrible rapist, but rather a love-stricken creepy ass humbert humbert.
And there is no such thing as a physically attractive pornstar because they are emotionally stunted, walking venereal diseases with their vag lips a-flappin' in the wind
There are some pornstars who are attractive when not doing porn. I'm pretty sure you wouldn't recognize them when not completely naked or wearing one of those silly fishnet body stockings
kids today don't know how good they have it. i mean, have you seen porn from the 70s or 80s? Its all big hair (top and bottom) and ladies that look like they're 40 and boring missionary laa-dee-daa

They can't design controls for horror games to save their lives either.

In other words, yes.

Those are two different answers.
Yeah I imagine he told it.

No see I was just being a little bit dumb and now I regret it
Please don't think lower of me
Please?

that would help too
it was alright.
My roommate thought he had downloaded a sneak preview of Nailin' Palin, and for about 30 seconds we thought we were in fact going to watch it.
Then BAM RICKROLL
It was the only time I've ever laughed at a rickroll
Nothing like having a boner while looking at Rick Asltey's face, right?
Eh. Seen better.
Also seen worse.
