Oi, you 360 users.

How was Section 8?

well, we had a single player campaign, but it was pretty terrible and mostly an 8 hour tutorial. The multiplayer was ok, but if it isn't already your type of game you won't like it. It's basically Tribes in HD, only the jetpacks don't go quite as high. There's some cool ideas like earning points mid battle allow you to call in robot suits and tanks, and stuff. IDK much about psn stuff, but id at least try a demo first if you can. If there isnt one on ps3, i think PC has a demo for it at least.

I know who did it! Me, in the foyer, with the revolver!

Any chance of a demo?

those are strong words towards a man you've never met. What's the problem, an entire company takes longer than you want to make a game, so the head is a worthless piece of shit? [Ed: be respectful!]

@ Dark Wayne


Ouch must have Touched a nerve. I hate him cause he thinks the PS3 is a waist of time and refuses to do anything with it .. this is why i call him Lazy and the name calling and whatever is cause he's an uptight Ass. i figured people were pissed cause of a new reason .. i always like when people are pissed at this guy people love his game but yet he's no good at business. the guy's not smart at all.


sorry if i sound harsh but if i can't play specific games on my platform of choice ( sure i own a 360 but i can't even go back too play it at all cause it was too hard for me * controller feel and controls for a few games would take me awhile too get back too * and i don't do PC gaming as my PC can't handle todays games. ) but if the guy wants too make stupid and bad decesions then sure i'm gonna hate on the guy cause it effects me. thus i don't care for valve anymore till they get their shit straight.

Hahaha wait wait let me get this straight before I turn in for the night.

You, a gamer, are accusing Gabe Newell, developer, of being lazy because he will not develop for a system that other developers have called a bit of a pain to develop for, while you, a gamer, will not play the 360 because, and I quote "controller feel and controls for a few games would take [you] awhile[sic] too[sic] get back too[sic]".

And you, the gamer, are calling him, head of the company that not only spearheaded the digital distribution campaign but also created some of the most beloved franchises in gaming, the lazy fatass?

I was excited for the HR avatars too (Madison as well) .... until I saw them.


They are awful. The poses are just horrible, especially the other girl's ...

At 50c, they're still a rip off.

Any recommendations on Blue Toad Murder Files? It looks like a Professor Layton meets J.B. Harold Murder Club game....BTW, J.B. Harold is long due for a remake

And now for another thrilling episode of "Wasting time with sonicspike41".

SonicSpike says:
*oh hey, a half-decent PSN update
(Shadow) says:
*is blazblue for download?
SonicSpike says:
*no...
(Shadow) says:
*then it isnt decent
SonicSpike says:
*first, I said half-decent
SonicSpike says:
*secondly, just because a game you care about isn't on the list
SonicSpike says:
*doesn't mean it sucks
SonicSpike says:
*that'd be like me saying "Wii doesn't have Halo so it's utter shit"
SonicSpike says:
*which would obviously be a very stupid thing to say
SonicSpike says:
*so saying it sucks or isn't decent just because one game isn't on the list
SonicSpike says:
*is a very stupid thing to say

(I consider this relevant because it also contains my thoughts on the PSN update, and uh... hurray for Sonic costumes? I don't know...)

Sega DLC on sale? Damn. I got two of the Valkyria Chronicles DLCs when they were on sale near the start of the year already, but it's always hard to resist a good sale.

It was an msn conversation I had with a friend shortly after this article went live. I just posted it because... I don't know. It's just an example of someone being stupid with a stick up their rear.

I was actually expecting a "cool story bro" reply or two.

You can get BlazBlue for $20 starting tomorrow during Gamestop's GameDays sale. However, it does run through til the end of April. I have enough to satisfy myself just with this PSN update alone right now. But I will probably go there before the sale ends to pick up some games I've missed.

Trust me, they don't keep stock up. I tried to find Valkyria Chronicles when it was 20 last year, but all the stores I checked didn't have it.

Tried to push me into a 55 dollar used copy, though...

Those Easter costumes look awful, with the exception of the Easter egg one. Not worth my money. Neither, I feel, are the Sonic costumes. But that's just 'cause I've never been much of a Sonic fan. I bet if it was a Donkey Kong Country (Donkey, Diddy, Dixie, Funky, etc.) costume/sticker kit, I'd go bananas (pun totally intended).

Garbage week. Need more downloadable psp games. How is MAG everybody? I'm a big halo and COD fan, but I'm not biased. I'll probably get MAG or bad company 2 soon.

I tried MAG in beta and it was pretty weak. the guns don't feel very realistic. there isn't much to the game other than the 256 players.

battlefield on the other hand, you can blow stuff up, graphics are improved from the first one. the spawning doesn't suck like mw2, there are dedicated servers, the vehicles are awesome and so are the weapons. im really liking it.

I have both of them and let me say that personally MAG is so fun and addictive I haven't been able to break away from it to put any time in BF BC 2 (maybe an hour but I put at least 10 in the beta). It's (MAG) the most fun I've ever had playing online multiplayer. Both games are great but I give the edge personally to MAG. The leveling, customization and gameplay is just second to none, in my opinion.

When are we getting the next PSOne Square Enix game? And what will it be?

Final Fantasy IX? Vagrant Story? Chrono Cross? Dragon Quest VII?

I'm dying for Xenogears over here, and I can't justify paying $200 for a physical copy! (My own fault for lending it out years ago and never getting it back!)

I read the description on Blue toad.... It seems like a professor layton clone.

I really like Prof. Layton, but I guess I'm kinda disappointed cuz I thought it would be an actual murder mystery game. Anyways, PSN and XBL haven't had anything interesting (for me) over the past few months. Cave story came out for Wii though so at least something really good came out lately :)
