Man...

When you make a discussion topic, you need to include  something other than "*insert videogame name* DISCUSS!" You should include atleast a link to screenshot/information and maybe some screenshots as well as your own opinion.

I for one, know absolutely nothing about this game.  How about enlightening me?  You don't give your opinion on the game (yet you're quick to make review topics) so why don't you tell US what you think FIRST?

That's how discussion topics work.  You bring up a topic, YOU discuss it first, then we get a turn talking about it, flame wars start up, lots of trolling, the topic gets locked, internet drama, we all laugh in the end.  Please keep this in mind.

EDIT; Here, Look at the FFIV topic for an example (http://www.gamingw.net/forums/index.php?topic=3771.0).  It's only a few paragraphs long, has a youtube video link, and some screenshots.  All you really need is a paragraph or two and a LINK to screens or something.  It should only take you 5 maybe 10 minutes to create a good topic.

Now then, someone tell me about DQSwords.  Is it that lame idea for a rail shooter on the Wii that I've heard so much about?

From what I've been reading it's a pretty simple game.  Apparently only one main town/city that acts as a hub to all the other places you venture to as well as that tower which is apparently where your goal lies.  I certainly would have picked it up (got it at my store today) but I'm hesitant on dropping $50 on it with both Baroque and Opoona coming up next month as other RPGs to consider.  Baroque at the moment is on my "hit" list.

This is no excuse.  If you can't post a well thought out post for whatever reason, than don't post it until you can.  This isn't a chat room, you don't need to post in real-time on a message board.  Put some thought into what you do.

It LOOKS exactly like Kenshin Dragon Quest...

That's likely because the game was created as a sequel of sorts in the same vein as Kenshin.  At the very least, it has a similar framework for gameplay inspired by Kenshin while bringing a few new things to the table.

There wasn't a topic like this that was stickied (at least, it's not one of the ones I took down). There's a section in the rules about it though, so maybe that's what you're thinking about?

oh, they merged? there used to be a whole topic dedicated to it (called, uh.. "does this forum have standards?" or something)

Oh, I see. Well, now that there's so much free sticky space, we could unmerge them.
