IGN stuff

Someone needs to go buy this game and report. It looks pretty cool. <p><hr />
<div style="text-align:center"><span style="font-size:xx-small;">Curtis: Dannyboy, look at you. You've changed considerably, into a badass, if I may.
Dan: Yeah, you've changed a lot too, into an old man! I went to see the devil, now it's your turn!
Curtis: Oh, my pupil, so tenacious of life, guess I have to kill you again.
Dan: Shut up, before you run out of breath!
Curtis: I got rid of those smiles, there's no one left to disturb our game. Just you, and me.
Dan: Sounds fair, 'cuz I hate holding back, even for an old fart like yourself.
Curtis: Talk all you want, I won't need six bullets for you.
Dan: Or four for you.</span>

Sorry Nick, but that's just a "trotmobile" which belongs to "Vanilla". Although that's still disturbing in itself.

Jean: No. It's 'Steambot', referring to the steam-driven Mechs that you can ride around in.

Ganon: ... dating sim? I wouldn't know, I haven't heard that yet. Go read up on it, ya crazy fool. <p><hr />

I was making sexual innuendo, Jean. Cause I'm white, and that's all we white people are good for. <p><div style="text-align:center">

God Damn white men! Damn them and there pearly white skin, overdose of siliva, blonde hair and inability to jump!

As an after thought without thinking:

Know why white men chase Asian girls? Cause all the white women are being hit on by the black men. <p><div style="text-align:center"> </div>

I'm not sure how offensive that joke can be when it is made more often by black comedians than those of any other race. <p><div style="text-align:center">Image</div></p>

So what do Asian guys chase after? <p><hr />

So, anyhow, I picked up the latest issue of OPSM simply to check out the demo of the game...

... and I'm impressed.

A small distance into the game and you're bombarded with any number of choices, ranging from how to treat the girl who saves you to whether to steal honestly or just take the cowboy hat and run.

The Trotmobile controls are akin to those of Katamari Damacy; you use both analog sticks to control its movement and bringing the hurt to your enemy is deliciously simple.

You can meet and greet people in various ways, impacting how they look at you and affecting your overall reputation.

There's much to be done with arena fighting, playing billiards, or finding an instrument (the demo lets you snag the harmonica) and playing it for money or simply to your heart's content.

I'm definitely impressed so far. I'll be getting this next.

... oh, and yes, the characters tend to be named after food.
Some examples:
Vanilla Bean, Coriander, Marjoram, and so on. <p><hr />
