You should probably watch this Bit.Trip Runner trailer

I wasn't sure how good this would be, especially after Void which was good but not as good as Beat and Core. I have to say though, I'm extremely excited for this game. The music at the end of the trailer was awesome, also.

Well spotted, indeed. That's probably the most creatively hidden swastika I'll ever see in a video game.

Mega Man 10 launch event this Sunday at Nintendo World NYC

Sliwinski seems to be implying that obtaining the Capcom merchandise is a rip-off since it isn't free but $20 for 2,000 points, a shirt, and a poster sounds like an awesome deal to me.

Dunaway hints at new Zelda in 2010, unsure about Xenoblade and The Last Story

Yeah!! That way, the Wii2 can have a Zelda launch title! I definitely wouldn't mind waiting a year or two.

But seriously, if they pull that shit again I'm blowing my brains out.

I'll be surprised if it doesn't fall back all the way to 2012.

Castlevania: The Adventure Rebirth out in Europe next week

I just watched your review and I just want let people know that your opinion shouldn't hold a lot of weight in their decision of whether to buy this or not. First of all, you said that there's no saving, including the "Wii menu" save, but I noticed that you already commented on youtube a month ago that you can hold right on the d-pad for a few seconds to jump to any level you've already beaten. Anyone with internet access can figure this out easily, just like I did while I was playing the game, so not having a save feature doesn't really hurt the game.

And you kept saying how straight-forward the game is, because all you do is go left and right. It's a sidescroller so what do you expect. And the main appeal of the game for me was the keys you can find that open alternate pathways and treasure rooms. Some alternate paths even let you skip sub-bosses so straightforward is an incorrect way to describe this game.

You also weren't sure how many whip upgrades there were and you said you thought the game was 3 hours long, which makes me think that not only did you not even beat it prior to your review, but you didn't even spend that much time with it.

I do agree the Castlevania IV is a better game and $2 cheaper but this was a solid old-school Castlevania game. So for anyone that's a Castlevania fan or old-school gamer, it's worth the $10.

"Actually, I prefer [de Blob] on a normal controller"

"which is why they included the Blue Sphere game"

The chaos emerald mini-game from Sonic 3? What does that have to do with Knuckles' color scheme and Sonic 1? Also, is there any kind of lock on feature for 1? I'm confused and I need answers.
