The IGN review of the castlevainia title says you can play with up to 6 players. I'm betting on IGN :p

The 'Scott Pilgrim' game, interesting. Well, let's hope it will be good. As in that someone with knowledge of the series worked on it and it not just being a bad movie knockoff. |
Fear not, it's obviously coming to tie in to the movie, but the game is decidely skewed towards fans of the comic  |
Sounds good can't wait to see what they cook up since I read the comic. Oh and vol. 6 is on the way can't wait to read the finale.

Size, probably. Digest-sized comics tend to be shelved with manga, even when the publisher/creator doesn't call them manga. They'd get lost on the full-size comics shelves. For instance, Greg Rucka's Whiteout and Queen & Country digest editions (also published by Oni Press, like Scott Pilgrim).

What Todd? No mention of the new Super Street Fighter 3D(S) screenshots? What about the fact that Monster Rancher DS just came out!?

Wow that's got to be one of the lamest reasons I've ever heard.

Well at actual comic book stores, Scott Pilgrim is usually not with the manga. But as the SP fandom is more skewed towards manga fans than American comics fans, it's much more profitable to put the books with the manga at the big bookstores.
Though, I've never seen any other Oni Press books in the manga section at my local bookstores.

Ditto. I just read the last book and am eager to see how the movie adapts the story. As for the game, I love the art style and will be downloading it as soon as it is available.
Does anyone else think the Tekken x Street Fighter games are weird. The play style of the two games are very different so I don't see how either version will get the characters to mesh without changing one or both of the franchises gameplay radically.

I know it happens occasionally and never lasts, but with Ogre coming back and Sega just announcing the Shining series being revived for PSP together with a pretty stellar games line up over the next two-three months(All those lovely Ys games, Valkyria Chronicles 2, Kingdom Hearts, God of War, Parasite Eve, Patapon 3) it seems I may need to keep the old piano slab charged up on a regular basis for a while... and yet even then, all I can think about is how much I want a port of Persona 4 with a female protagonist already... I am such a goddamn SMT mark.

Fear not.. it is not just you noticing, I think.
With P3P and Valkyria 2 coming out, I have finally been talked into getting a PSP.
I'm told a 2000 slim or 3000 are the best choices, yay.

Well, after seeing Scott Pilgrim at Fantasia, I can say I really liked the movie. I gotta say the atmosphere was also awesome, but it's among the movie I enjoyed most this year.
I really have I hopes for the videogame too...

What's the relation between Tactics Ogre and Ogre Battle? I'm pretty sure I recognized Warren on your wheel of characters, but as I never got past the second level in March of the Black Queen, and I've never even heard of Let Us Cling Together, I might be mistaken.

The original Ogre Battle is the fifth episode of the Ogre Battle Saga, and Tactics Ogre: LUCT is the seventh (Ogre Battle 64 is the sixth episode, and every other Tactics/Ogre game is a side-story). Tactics Ogre features several characters from Ogre Battle, including Warren, Canopus, and Deneb.

So...wait, it starts with episode five? Interesting. Is there any reason for that?
