It was on Amazon Lightning Deal last week for 25 percent off or something like that. Shame you missed it. It's one of the best RPGs of the generation.

And XSEED is talking about how much of a huge investment number 2 is. I can't wait. DAT CLIFFHANGER.

---------------

Also, summer release schedule sucks ass as per usual but fall starts pretty early this year and doesn't let up until November.

For July I have Otomedius Excellent because I'm a douchebag, and Chantelise if Carpe Fulgur/Space Drake's Twitter stays on track. And they rock hard so I'm totally looking forward to that.

August is...Dues Ex. Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet. Third Strike Online if the rumours are to be believed. Ditto on Silvergun.

September is when shit hits the fan and we have an import of Xenoblade, Star Fox 3DS, Harvest Moon: Tale of Two Towns, Kirby: Mass Attack, Gears 3, hopefully that Team Ico Collection, and Trackmania 2: Canyon, if that sticks.

October is Dark Souls, Assault Horizon, Forza 4, Arkham City and BF3.

November is Uncharted 3, Skyrim, and fucking Saints Row 3.

So there's a fair bit yeah.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

So Shin, have you gotten any play time with the Space Marine demo that hit the other day? If so, thoughts on it?

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Yeah, I too was surprised by it.

Dunno if I'll rent it or what, but it's certainly a pleasant surprise. Shame about it's release window.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Welp, Namco just saved the entire planet 60 dollars.

Assault Horizon demo came out today. Haha, oh wow.

It's more of an insult to Ace Combat than Other M was to Metroid. It's atrocious on a level rarely seen.

Rubber plane? Go for it. Bounce off all the buildings you want. Even Xardion's an ace player now.

Regenerating health? Yup, fuck up all you want, no big deal.

Dog Fight Mode plays the game for you? It's even worse than the trailers indicate. It can and will turn the plane for you, and it will make some enemy classes either impossible or incredibly unlikely to be downed if you don't use it. Because their health regenerates too, and the only way to realistically land 5ish missiles on them is with DFM.

Out of curiosity, I tried the demo a second time. To see if I could play it and beat it without touching the control stick after entering DFM. Flew up to 8 or so enemies, only lost DFM mode once. I WASN'T EVEN CONTROLLING THE PLANE.

I thought that one trailer with all the missile follow kills was a dude controlling the camera to do that (like you could in the old games), nope this is automatic and there are parts that basically go SWAP TO ALT WEAPON AND FIRE NOW and then it will automatically show some ridiculous kill cam where everyone dies automatically.

Also, several of the kills are scripted. Oh, and there's QTEs. And one button counter maneuvers.

And the helicopter mode is silly. It controls like an FPS, kind of. Unnatural and confusing, there is no weight to the machine and no sense of inertia in your movements. Even the arcadey chopper controls in Bad Company 2 are deeper than this.

Game is for people with single digit IQs.

Most amazing jew boots

Anyone picked up Solatorobo yet? Shit's kinda easy but gorgeous and pretty fun. There seems to have been some distribution problems but otherwise it seems to be in stores now.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Tritoch's pretty spot on.

The combination of humanity being a ridiculous mechanic, along with have very, VERY few disadvantages to being hollow, leaves the game's interactions with other players severely lacking.

Which is a shame since it makes the game's best ideas completely worthless (covenants), while highlighting it's shittiest changes (lack of hub world, entire humanity system).

Too bad.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

That's completely out of left field but actually quite interesting. I'm hoping this card stuff isn't handled poorly, like the shadow battles or any of that, and isn't withheld or overpriced or anything.

But this is Capcom, so.

Some of the ideas in it are pretty damn dynamic though. I like it.

FELIPE NO

...right. But I'm wondering how many new sets are planned, for what price point, and what kind of release schedule, and what kind of powers the DLC cards might give.

I'm hoping it's not poorly handled in many important aspects, that's all. Idea itself is cool as fuck, though.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT HOW MANY TIMES THEY'LL BE BUYING DAYTONA ON WEDNESDAY

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I honestly am at a loss for words. That is...what?

There's nowhere I can't reach.
