Mega Man Soccer...hmm, interesting. Doesn't sound like I'm missing much though. But Mario Strikers, hoo boy. That game is so much fun with four players! I love body slamming opponents into the electric fence haha
You are something of an oddball these days since you like strategy games so much and Japanese ones at that! *GASP!* Lol. Certainly can't fault you for liking that SNES/PS1 style of gaming so much and I've learned about lots of great games from reading your posts that I never would have known about otherwise. Glad you liked the song 
Excellent review, sir. You sound like a professional
Having not played the game, the most intriguing thing to me is the title. A machine for pigs? What the heck does that mean? Like the first game (which I have but have not played), I hope this one makes its way into a Humble Bundle because there's no way I'd pass that bundle up. And if there's one thing I love in games, it's well written lore (Metroid Prime and Mass Effect come to mind).
I love the sound of all this. This and Pikmin 3 are must get Wii U games right now. I just wish that, ya know, I had the money to get them right now. Super Mario 3D World comes out in a week and a half and that will be a must get too, I'm sure.
I haven't listened to the BA yet. Haven't had a big enough chunk of time but I'm very interested to hear what they have to say. Angelo and I are often on the same wavelength, it seems, when it comes to what we like and dislike but I definitely don't read into things the way he does.
Well there's this stuff called money, which is quite elusive right now, so I won't be getting a newfangled PS4 yet 
I think if El Shaddai had been any longer, it would have worn out its welcome. I thought it was about the right length, even though it seemed to end abruptly but that was because I wasn't sure what exactly was going on in the story lol.
I have that problem with my 360. I've got two dinky hard drives but they fill up so fast, but a big one is so expensive 
I missed out on the fat PS3s but I don't mind. I've never had to worry about space on that thing. I just download stuff, like, whenever lol. I haven't played Valkyria Chronicles yet but when I got a PS3 I knew it was one of the days I had to have. I'm glad I won't have to worry about finding it later.
Cool! Is it the original design or the slim? I wish I had the money to get one now because of that OLED screen but it's just a no go. I started playing my PSP again the other day, though, and was reminded how much I like it. I'm sure I'd love a Vita. *sigh* Some day...
