VX Ace came out last month and there is a former programmer on this site. Just convince the lazy ass to do some work and you've got yourself a Triple A SNES style game~! ...well, assuming you can find an artist, composer, writer, and idea person to go along with the dumb ass programmer.

<----the lazy and dumbass programmer I was talking about.

Also Sony's attempt at a Smash Bros clone is stupid, will be totally ripped off, and I just can't see myself playing it. Till everyone else tells me its awesome; then I'll concede and buy it.

;D Phantasy Star Online 2 is coming! Its also FREE TO PLAY!

Fuck yes! Please, please, please... Let this game come state side. I adored the Phantasy Star series on Sega and the original PSO. Please let this one be awesome.

If you pre-order the next Spider-man game at Amazon you get to play some missions as Stan Lee. That's...unique.

 

[Haws Bah Gawd]

If by unique you mean retarded then yes.

Raptr has started a rewards program and I just got Minecraft for 360 free. Not bad.

I got a Ghost Recon: Future Soldier beta key for Xbox 360 from Raptr. I assume it's of no use to me, without XBL Gold. If the beta's still going on, and anyone wants it, they're free to have it.

Raptr says I did almost 30 hours of gaming this week with half of that in MW3.

That....seems kinda high.

I love my Prime. It's beautiful. I dropped my on a concrete sidewalk a few weeks ago. It still works, but parts of the screen shattered. Other than that blameless incident, I can't recommend it enough.

If you need a game on your account, you could get the Commandos pack—$3 for 4 titles. Or if you really just want the bare minimum, you can pick one title for a buck.

Depends on how much you want a free 9-year-old racing game, I suppose.

BBC UNSC HALO FAIL

During a news segment on the United Nations' involvement in the Syrian conflict, the BBC aired an image of the UNSC – the fictitious United Nations Space Command from Halo.

Rock Band Blitz is going to have Cult of Personality.

FUCKING FINALLY they get that song in a RB game!

 

[DrVenkman PhD]

Wasn't that in... nevermind that was Guitar Hero.

And it was a rerecord because they cannot find the masters.

The latest Humble Indie Bundle (http://www.humblebundle.com) is out and literally every game on there is AMAZING. Pay whatever you want for Psychonauts, Sword and Sworcery, Limbo and Amnesia. Pay more than the average (currently $7.39) and get Bastion as well.

Literally the ONLY excuse for not buying this is that you already own all the games.

 

[AnonymousBroccoli]

I already had Psychonauts, Limbo, and Bastion and its soundtrack, and went for it anyways. I think the FLAC soundtracks tipped the scale, even though I'll probably never listen to them. It's not like everyone involved doesn't deserve a few bucks.

Rifftrax crew riffs on Mega Man 8, Sonic The Hedgehog (2006), Final Fantasy X, and Metal Gear Solid 4

 

[AnonymousBroccoli]

The Humble Indie Bundle #5 now includes Braid, Super Meat Boy, and Lone Survivor. You automatically get them free (including a Steam key) if you've already bought the bundle; if you haven't, then beat the average (currently $8.06) to get those three, and Bastion.

Enders in HD?

What rock have I been living under and where can I hand over my monies?

 

[Sabre]

At an event in May 2012, the HD Collection was given a release date in Japan for October 25.

 

[Kageho]

No! I won't see it till 2013!

Who must I bribe to get it faster?!

 

[DrVenkman PhD]

I didn't think anyone even liked ZOE in 2001 (in the sense that somehow in that era, people started thinking 7 was a bad rating).

I went to school with the kid who voiced Leo Stenbuck. Got a few stories from him about what went down.
