Joystiq

Though we've gone to great lengths to deny and cloak the truth, it is frequently in our best interests to be direct with our readers. You see, we've been having trouble making ends meet. In fact, all of our efforts to do so have resulted in one of the ends physically and quite brutally assaulting the other. One even tried to hire a hitman. Our lack of financial power has become so abysmal, that one of our boggers has had to make due without "L" key on his hideously malfunctioning keyboard. His description of the Xbox 360's Eragon demo as "ame" lacked a significant amount of punch, not to mention sense.

And that's why we've decided to make more cents. In a bold move to build up our shared bank account under the pitiful pretense of providing the reader with choice, this week's Japanese sales chart will find itself next to equine protection devices and sleek sports cars -- huddled beneath the gigantic umbrella of microtransactions. By clicking once and going through to the second half of the post, you agree to pay Joystiq 12 Joy Points to unlock the information. You can purchase 11 Joy Points at a time for just 1200 Microsoft Points. Don't worry, as a matter of convenience, we've already obtained your credit card information.

Note on choice: You could simply highlight the text, but why bother clicking and dragging your mouse across the desk like a slave pulling a granite block for his pyramid-obsessed pharaoh?
