Everyone saw the giant green vending machine dispensing fifths of liquor, right? That right there is probably the tip of the actual wacky iceberg.

[smartblue]

Yeah, I didn't see pg 4 here but I knew what everyone was talking about.

Cipher Prime is doing another indie game sale, six new games for 20 bucks. They also have the old bundle up for 20, or you can get both bundles for 30.

http://www.theindiebundle.com/

The new bundle includes AaaaaAAaaaAAAaaAAAAaAAAAA!!!: A Reckless Disregard for Gravity, BrainPipe, Captain Forever, Cogs, Saira, and Space Giraffe.

The old bundle, in case you missed it, was And Yet It Moves, Auditorium, Aztaka, Eufloria, Machinarium, and Osmos.

Deal is good for the next week.

[smartblue]

well, there is no drm, so you could give away the ones you don't want to friends?

[smartblue]

[smartblue]

I think it is great. if you loved the original, you should at least grab the demo.

[smartblue]

Featuring Plumbers Still Don't Wear Ties, the MMO.

My friend says Panasonic's clearly alone in the dark since they're really just killing time since its Jungle will for sure crash n burn.

[smartblue]

Relax, they said everyone who got the game before today gets one, otherwise its in the goty.

Anybody want a free copy of Fable 2?

It has been translated, sure, but as someone who doesn't have a modded ps1 or any experience getting ps1 emulation to work, this is the first time I'll get to play this.

I just got those same games with the same good k mart deals. Dunno if it is good online, as not everybody has a k mart around.

Ah ha. Yep, and if you are interested, act soon, this sale apparently changes to some other title next week.

So they're porting EDF 3 to the PSP, and there's EDF Legend for probably cell phones, and EDF 4, on something. That's a whole lot of awesome right there.

Threads of Fate was announced as well. This all on top of Front Mission 3's release is a nice change of pace for the US psn ps1 selection.

Saga Frontier 2 was... confusing, just like Kawazu, who I heard wants to make Saga 4 before he dies.

[smartblue]

Front Mission 3 is 6 bucks, I think. Also, Parasite Eve is not announced, that was just a list Firenze posted of games that came out the same year.

Front Mission 1 is on the DS, but I think Front Mission 3 holds up better.

Woah, didn't know Torchlight was getting a console release.

I figured they would do this as it would mean they could make a guaranteed hit, like it or not, using preexisting resources. Between this, the dismal FF XIV sales and reception (and, well, game itself), seeing a lot more Square PS1 games coming to PSN, and the fact that most all original IP development from SquareEnix is happening on the DS and PSP, I see the company more than ever struggling to survive. I hope I'm wrong, as it seems they are at least trying to shape up.

Also, apparently this Final Fantasy Type 0 is just a new name for Final Fantasy XIII Agito on the PSP.

... which is not to be confused with Final Fantasy XIII Versus, which is still in development.

http://www.4gamer.net/games/120/G012012/20110118006/

... 15 years ago this page would have given someone a heart attack. Now it's just giving me a headache.

So can we just call FF XIII Versus FF XIII 1.333 and FF XIII Type 0 FF XIII 1.667?

Woah, just checked out xbox live and there's an extra stage and character add on for Castlevania HD based on Getsu Fuma Den? They also added Simon and a Castlevania 1 stage. This is unexpected, but I wager they all still play the same old way.

I'll totally play with you James and Isfet and everyone else. I haven't bought a lot of the new dlc yet because the dude I usually play stuff with has moved on to other games, but I'll get them right away if people will be playing it.

I had been thinking that a good gesture would be for Microsoft to allow people to donate the unused balance of their MS Points. I've got 70, or about 87 cents, that isn't going to be used ever. We would all get to clear our coffers of cobwebs, they would get a chunk of change and fix an annoyance. Perhaps also direct donations would work for those not to be bothered by going to redcross.org? They've got an ad for it in one of their blades, though. I guess that's good enough for them.
