Misquotation is, in fact, the pride and privilege of the learned. A widely- read man never quotes accurately, for the rather obvious reason that he has read too widely. -- Hesketh Pearson

The RipTen/MMN Revue for Wednesday, August 25th

Thursday, August 26th, 2010

From RipTen:

Fan Reimagines Sonic & Knuckles in Amazing Video – This rendition of the Mushroom Hill Zone’s second act is simply incredible. Interestingly, Sonic reminds me of the renders we had seen for the ill-fated Sonic X-treme. Too bad this isn’t “real,” per se. But I could see paying SEGA money for something like this. Like, a whole disc full of this, remaking all four Genesis Sonic games. Maybe some other stuff, too.

Kinect-ed Xbox Avatars Revealed – At first, I was a little worried about what a “more realistic” Avatar might be. Turns out, they aren’t so bad.

From The Mega Man Network:

More Mega Man Universe to Come at PAX? – Capcom says they’ll lift the curtain a little more on Mega Man Universe come the Penny Arcade Expo next week. Personally, I’m a touch skeptical… it doesn’t sound like they plan to release much, leaving the question of whether it will be anything to really go on.

The RipTen/MMN Revue for Wednesday, August 18th

Thursday, August 19th, 2010

No Examiner today; found myself too busy with other stuff.

From RipTen:

Japanese Sonic 4 Website Reveals New Lost Labyrinth Zone Screens – As TSR put it, it appears that SEGA is trying to make a point with this particular release of screen shots, as they are of the area which once contained the much-maligned motion-control mine cart.

Fans Seek to Aid Creator in Releasing Toonstruck 2 – The creator of a point-and-click adventure game starring Christopher Lloyd trapped in a cartoon world with the voices of Frank Welker, Dan Castellaneta, Tim Curry, Ben Stein, and numerous others wants to re-release the game in its full-blown entirety. Who wouldn’t want him to?

Rare Upgrading Avatars for Better Kinect-ivity – I like Avatars, but I wonder how they’ll look with more realistic proportions. Hopefully that only regards things like the lengths of arms and legs– I’d rather they still remain cartoon-y.

WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2011 Info Blowout – A ton of info about THQ’s latest WWE release. This one sounds like a lot of fun, but will the Nexus and Daniel Bryan be featured? Let us hope!

What if Activision Made Limbo 2? – Not one of mine, but good for a laugh just the same.

From The Mega Man Network:

Kotobukiya Roll Figure Now in Color, Ready for Pre-order – The Kotobukiya Rockman figure appears to be nothing short of awesome; like Bandai’s Ironbuster model kit, only its excellence magnified many, many times over. And now Roll looks to make the whole thing even better! The wait to see Blues/Proto Man has just become that much harder.
