You didn't have to add "crappy" and Square Enix.  Kind of redundant.

Hey man, Third Birthday is an amazing game with a deep engaging narrative!

I have a copy of The Third Birthday. Square Enix gave me the PSN code for free. I haven't played it yet, but I've heard the story is something mighty awful. Supposedly the actual game portions are fun though.

Third Birthday is a great TPS x ARPG.

The story on the other hand...

Game looks extremely mediocre (especially after the amazing Nier, one of the best games this gen) but this:

Quote
Carlos came to the museum on a date with who he says is the hottest girl in Brooklyn. He works in a bodega

Would this be the first non-fighting game to feature a Hispanic character? Also cool there's a Viet character... the diversity is interesting.

What a tragedy. Carlos was set to do for Hispanics what Barret did for black people.  :'(

SE's idea of appealing to the US/Latino market. Include Matt and Carlos.

Als Nguyen for the asians and a chick.

TBH I was actually hoping this Siliconera tease would've been for the rebirth of Gun Loco.

I would not have minded that. I wouldn't have moved closer to buying, but I would have remained morbidly curious.
