Giantbomb, both the staff and the community, should stay away from social issues. None of us have the capacity to write about it with any skill.

Christ, this should be in the official forum FAQ and the number one rule.

Damn good deal.

She gets better. I only find it a problem when she's screaming/shouting everything. 50% of her lines are better than the old chie, but the other 50% aren't.

Yup, that about sums it up for me. I'll get used to the voice eventually, and she does a pretty good job, but some lines were done better before.

RIP "Aha, is this our chance?"

I've really enjoyed the differences to the port thus far. Granted, I'm only just barely beating Yukiko's dungeon, but even simple things like being able to go out at night and knowing how many chapters are left in the book you want to finish have improved my enjoyment of play greatly. I don't have a ton of experience with the changes to fusing / battle system / things of that nature yet, so I can't comment on them for now, but simply in terms of usability they've done a great job. Also being able to his start and skip cutscenes and being able to restart from the start of a floor is a damn godsend when you get really unlucky and wiped from some poor battle choices.

Side note, I'm really trying to like Chie's voice 'cause I love her character, but damn is it an uphill battle for me. Teddie does great, but Chie has some lines where she sticks out like a sore thumb compared to other characters in the same scene.

While I could definitely see it ending with Clementine shooting Lee, I almost hope they do something else that I'm not expecting to happen. They set it up well enough in Ep 4 that I didn't expect Lee to get bit, at least not in this episode, so I'm hoping they can do something to at least make it unexpected or not as predictable as "Lee turns and Clementine shoots him roll credits." Don't get me wrong, it would still be a great ending, but still.

At the very least, provided Lee keeps himself healthy, he could probably last a few days if not a bit longer with that bite. In the comics Jim lasted a few days and he was missing a huge chunk of his arm - it's not the bite that kills you, but rather the massive infection you get from the bite. Lee doesn't look like he got more than a minor bite, so he definitely has some time.

I would almost be kind of into the idea of it ending on a cliffhanger, where you find Clem and Lee is sick but not quite dying and Season 2 picks up from there, provided they plan on keeping the same cast of characters.

It's funny how often people think there's some kind of feud between websites when everyone actually in the industry seems to know and get along with each other pretty well.

@TobbRobb: Why did the knight save the player character?

Oscar was rather close to going hollow, and being as you're the only Undead who isn't hollow at the Asylum, he figured he'd find someone who wasn't hollow to inherit his mission.

Best wallpaper. Ever.

Yeah okay. As if he was the first person, or the last person, to use a silhouette like that. If he's upset that it's similar to his Star Wars posters, I'm sure the hundreds of people on Deviantart who probably do the same style are upset that his Star Wars posters copied them.

There's one reason to buy or not to buy a WiiU, or any console for that matter: it has games you want to play on it. And that's the only justification I'll ever need. I'll buy a WiiU so I can play Nintendo's games, just like I bought a PS3 to play Sony's exclusive IPs and an Xbox to play Microsofts. If you buy a console just because it's new, chances are you're going to be disappointed. Buy it if games you want to play are going to be on it.
