Never even played the game, but I spent over a year driving to the soundtrack near-exclusively. :allears:

I'm liking the goofiness.

Especially the robot bartender doing the passive-aggressive action-flipoff.

I'm very surprised to see that a helicopter saw has already been put into a game. Slightly less surprised that it's Platinum that did it.

What was Ai Rin saying (in what I can only assume was Mandarin?)

GamesAreSupernice posted:

"Jie jie" basically means "older sister", I think.

"Shi a" just means yes. The a doesn't mean anything I think.

Let's just say "zui hao" means "hell yes".
To add to this and break apart all of the Mandarin peppered in Fei Rin and Ai Rin's dialogue,
"Ayaa" - an exclamation that can be modified by context. I want to say usually some form of surprise but I'm not entirely sure what to make of it here.
"Jie jie" - "older sister" is correct
"Shi a" - mirrors "Really?" at the end of the same line. "Shi" is "yes" or "is", and the "a" then modifies it into a question
"Zou ba" - "go" or "do it" in this context, seems like a weird use to me. Can also be used as "fine, leave" but not the case here. "Zou" is "walk".
"Zui hao" - "hell yes" is perfect here. "Zui" is "most" and "hao" is "good" or "yes". Gough's "veeeeery goooood" fits too.
"Ayaaaaaa" - Hey, it's that exclamation again. Frustration this time.
"Women zou ba" - "We're leaving" or "let's go (away)". "Wo men" is "us" or "we", "zou" is "walk" again.

I already knew there was a cyborg ninja in this, and elemental powers are common enough. Fighting cars that charge and spin at you, however, that I was not expecting. Is this in fact the Platinum Everygame?

If you mean whether or not this is a typical Platinum game experience..yes, it absolutely is. Everything is polished to a sheen. Even the dumb/goofy stuff is highly polished dumb/goofy stuff.
I mean in the half-joking sense of every Platinum game being represented within it, even future ones - it just occured to me that there's literally a furry on a fighter plane, along with fighting mutant reptiles.

Agreed on that Platinum shine, though.
