Heart. I've played a bit of Viewtiful Joe. I don't own it though. I was also kind of entertained by the TV series. Where'd it go?

I haven't played Yakuza yet, but I own a video demo. It does seem interesting.
Personally, my deal is that I like the characters. Even if they are slightly underdeveloped. It really sucks that you have to play through the whole game with a character and pay attention to all the loading screens every time you play through just to read about a small part of their life before the game's events.

Then again, I'm the same guy who's been pushing for a sequel to Ehrgeiz. I've actually been writing a movie plot that involves characters from Ehrgeiz, Soulcalibur, Big Trouble Little China, and Jackie Chan Adventures. Might I be just... nuts?
