  1. @IdleThumbs Think you're being unfair to Last Crusade! It stands up, and is an important bridge between Zak McKracken and Monkey Island.
  2. Contacted EA and had them close my "EA account" out of irritation that in #BFHeroes you can't delete characters. Bit drastic, in retrospect.
  3. Played some Battlefield Heroes. It is so *nearly* good it's infuriating. So many weird design decisions! Looks lovely, admittedly.
  4. My Develop panel, "After the iPhone Honeymoon: Where Next for Apple's Mobile?" (http://tr.im/rj68) is one week away. Hope to see you there!
  5. Pleased that @AtlusUSA are localizing http://tr.im/KenkaBancho3; sensible if Tokyo Beat Down was a success. Help name it: http://tr.im/rgP8
  6. I'm sorry, but this poster for the upcoming G.I. Joe movie makes it look like its own straight-to-DVD rip-off- http://www.twitpic.com/9jxzk
  7. I interviewed Ubisoft's Yannis Mallat about the new Toronto studio for @gamasutra. Read it here- http://tr.im/umnts
  8. Turns out this week's Xbox Live "Deal of the Week", N+, is actually 400 points. Even better! Get it here- http://tr.im/nplus
  9. This week's Xbox Live "Deal of the Week" for Gold Members is N+ for 560 points. A great 2D platformer, you should buy it- http://tr.im/nplus
  10. Got Art Style: Boxlife on @kotakumike's recommendation. Amusingly, I did once work in a factory making boxes. It's harder than I remember!
  11. I like that in the current TV advert for the DVD release of 12 Rounds, John Cena apparently punches a man so hard he makes a car explode.
  12. @TheOriginalSven Fallout 3 is an addictive but soulless exercise in slow-motion gore porn, inventory management and skill point allocation.
  13. Via @IanWAdams, people tantalized by http://tr.im/qxFm (@MrJonty?) will be glad to know you can buy the entire book here: http://tr.im/qxFK
  14. For Canada Day, I wrote a piece on why you should watch the films of the sorely overlooked, brilliant, Bruce McDonald- http://tr.im/tcdf
  15. Though @onelifeleft forgot my feature this week, thanks for making me understand Soulja Boy's appeal via chiptune remix: http://tr.im/sbctps
  16. There's an (unlicensed?) version of Rick Dangerous on the iPhone/iPod Touch- http://tr.im/rdgir -the system really is the new Spectrum, huh?
  17. TODAY'S BIGGEST NEWS: Mobile Light Force is this week's "PSOne Classic" for PS3/PSP. REALLY? You couldn't just release the original Gunbird?
  18. Reminded of the bit in Persepolis where Marji risks her life buying "Jichael Mackson" bootlegs. Iran won't be in the news much now, sadly.
  19. Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise-cute, but I feel like I would like it more (at all) if it didn't have the worst user interface in history.
  20. Previously Ninja Blade developer From Software made http://tr.im/MetalWolfChaos, in which you play the President of the USA/a giant robot.
