Catherine confirmed for release in the states.

Also, in news that makes my penis hard: Obsidian is making an XBLA game. As I think XBLA is the perfect medium for small-yet-ambitious games, I am excited.

I had just come to post that, Bal.

I can't describe how excited I am for this.

When Magicka first came out, it sounded to me 1) very interesting, 2) designed to be played in co-op exclusively, and 3) incredibly buggy. In what ways am I mistaken?

The game has enough comedy to be enjoyed in single-player, and the bugs, from my understanding, are largely fixed (though there are still occasional patches).

So are you guys as tentatively excited as I am over Super Mario 3DS?




I say "tentatively excited" because I hope against hopes that this isn't another fucking NSMB and is more of a Mario Galaxy/64/Sunshine thing.

It's obviously 3D, so I don't understand your concern.

On the other hand, New Super Mario Bros. Wii was great, so I don't understand your concern from that direction either.

understandable since the only two good announced games are super mario 3D and a port of a psp puzzle game (crush).  and i guess there was kid icarus but that could really go either way.

...I hope you guys are having this conversation ironically, with full awareness that it's the exact same fucking conversation we had when the DS was announced.

I actually really really want a 3DS but I really really want games I want to play to show up on it first.  DS had a few titles I was excited to play on day one, 3DS does not have a single game I want for at least a month or two out from the day it hits.  Which considering how I have barely cracked into DQIX since getting it might actually be a good thing.

Speaking as someone who gets headaches (for whatever reason) from playing normal handhelds, I think a handheld that actually caused headaches in normal people would probably cause my face to peel back and my eyes to liquefy.

I mean, outside of the bedroom right before I eat you.
