  1. "Her arc culminates in stopping Finn’s suicide run, saying to save what they love instead of fighting what they hate."

     

    Except, since no one knew Luke was going to save the day, from the characters' perspective all she did was ruin their one remaining hope (i.e. Finn's kamikaze attack on the ram allowing the Resistance in hiding to survive by giving them more time).

     

    I like Kelly Marie Tran and Rose's character, but that final scene with her was dreadful.

     

    Obviously this has nothing to do with people being horrid to Tran on the Internet. But that scene in TLJ really bugged me, and I think it should have just been cut entirely.

  2. 1. The Prime Trilogy edition.

    2. Definitely Metroid Prime. I loved the areas, atmosphere, and overall feel of the game, and the Trilogy Wii controls were perfect.

    3. Probably Quadraxis. The spectacle of fighting this gigantic machine in the huge arena, combined with the multiple boss phases and cool music, really made it a memorable fight.

    4. Phendrana Drifts, definitely. It has those beautiful desolate landscapes, and the best music of any area.

    5. Yeah, because I've heard that various enemies from the Prime Trilogy return, and I want to see those.

  3. While there has often been schedule slippage in the past, it's not the case here. The preliminary polls, which were never edited since being posted in June, all make no mention of semifinals, only the finals. In this contest, as in a number of others in that past, semifinals were cancelled since there were few enough entries that those advancing from preliminaries will already be enough for a final poll.

  4. The power bomb is a later-game powerup, but since you still need one more beam and to collect the artifacts there ends up being more left to the game than you think (especially since you can't progress further into the mines once you get the power bomb without new gear).
  5. A great series that I'm currently reading through is The Dresden Files. It basically combines urban fantasy with the detective genre, and especially as the series goes on the writing and action become pretty great. Highly recommended.

     

    There's also about 15 books out right now, so plenty of reading material.

  6. It's a bit disappointing, because I never got a chance to play the Prime series, which looked amazing.

    The Prime series was amazing! And if you have a Wii U, you can purchase it from the e-shop, without even tracking down a physical copy. I'd highly recommend it.

     

    Given that there aren't so many games, a top ten bosses/items/weapons list sounds like it would be the most interesting.
