I never really understood Myspace myself. Doesn't help I've never figured out how the hell people make their pages all visual 
I guess to me it seems a nuts idea that random people would socialize this way / maintain personal blogs / micromanage webs of friends. Most people hardly have enough time to impact the world, much less write about themselves / keep track of everyone else at the same time right? 
On the other hand, I think it just might be a practical way to make and document a web of interests (rather than people!)
Which is why I was disappointed there was nothing close to a Megaten tribute page in all of Myspace!
So Anyone else feel like there should be a Megaten tribute profile on Myspace?? More importantly, anyone up to doing the deed?

Myspace is kind of on its way out as far as social networks go. Skype is the new thing I guess though I admit I haven't checked it out yet myself.
Myspace is also more about social networking than anything else. I could see someone maybe putting up a Myspace Music profile and uploading songs from the games (in fact I'd be surprised if there isn't one already). There might even be a Megaten group too but honestly I try to reserve Myspace sheerly for personal contacts and people I know directly. It's kind of like the hipster's Rolodex I guess.

Skype is a digital telephony protocol afaik??
I doubt Myspace is realistically on it's last leg. Besides I'm all for totally abusing Myspace... or inciting abuse at least. I'm a little shocked many topics/organizations don't have their own tribute page. Who says you can't be a friend of a thing after all?

That's not what I'm saying so much as Myspace isn't really designed for what you're talking about. I mean you could conceivably do it, but I guarantee there already is some form of Megaten fandom already on Myspace, be it in a Group listing, a music profile, or individual profiles for the characters - I'm sure it already exists, just in a different form than a generic Megaten profile listing.

I get the point... or I realized as much from post one. Still seems like a no-brainer to me. I'm sure Final Fantasy has a tribute page

The Mara and Louis Cypher profiles are actually pretty cool...?

Yeah, I had to take another look now...
I caught the Nocture pseudo Mara fight. Apparently you can fight Mara, but the summon fails so you end up fighting a Mara version of a slime. Megaten is totally losing it's edge as we creep into the 21st century. It's funny how in the states this sort of content is becoming slightly more acceptable. While in Japan, where the video game industry really started off the back of pornography is becoming increasing neutered in terms of mainstream titles. I want testicle physics damnit
He doesn't seem to have the SMT1 concept artwork. Off the chariot... I'm pretty sure that was SMT1?? Someone should send him a copy.
Something tells me the chariot is an elaborate way to hide his boss sized balls, but it's cool enough in and of itself

Chariot-riding Mara was in Shin Megami Tensei II for sure. You fight him in Kokuma Tower.
North America had plenty of porn games during the Atari days. General Custer's Last Stand, Beat em and Eat em, Knight on the Town, there's seriously tons of them. All of them are like the most tasteless things I've ever seen though.

There's like a handful of those, and they're just abstractly placed pixels. Japan probably had a pornographic game produced for every non-pornographic game for more than a decade. Very detailed hi-resolution titles. Of course pornography is not stigmatized in Japan as much as it is humor fodder. But it's amusing Japan's back catalogs are never mentioned when the media takes a moment to profile pornography in gaming

That remains me of the AVGN review video. Hilarious! 
Signature under construction 'cause the last one died.
