We're happy you guys are commenting. Really, we are. But sometimes you comment on old entries that nobody's going to look at. To reward your diligence, I was thinking I could pull out a bunch of comments, once in a while, and respond in public. Huh? How does that sound?
On Koji Igarashi and the future of Castlevania, "Daedelus" says:
I do love the idea of 2D games on next-gen consoles, although I don't necessarily think the games will be larger. Assuming a constant budget and staff, the more detail you add in, the smaller the game gets. That's why portables lend themselves well to 2D, these days: because you can get away with a lot less detail.
As far as controller-swinging, I think developers will learn a lot about what people will -- and won't -- be able to do with a Wiimote in their hands once they actually get them into ordinary folks' homes.

20XX, who may or may not be from the future, asks me why I want Necro-Nesia:
Simple -- I'm not speaking as Joe Regular Gamer, I'm a games writer. I'll do the investigation so you don't have to get your hands dirty. Then write the whole thing off my taxes.
