Alright! I held off on posting this in case the TGS Press Conference held anything. It didn’t. But that’s fine, I think Sony has one later “today”, and Riddles will be all over that. As for now, let’s get to my all-over-the-place brain.
SWEET! Lost Winds 2! -
What?! I didn’t know this game was coming out! Amazing! In my opinion, there are very, very few games that justify the Wii’s existence as a Wiimote-based console, but Lost Winds is one of them. It’s clever, has great art design, music that’s not entirely dissimilar to Shadow of the Colossus, and addicting controls. The first one was short and sweet, and come out pretty much around WiiWare’s launch. I remember hearing that the developers intended on making a sequel, but there was silence for a very long time. Although it was my homepage three years ago, I rarely check the Wii channel of IGN anymore, but I’m glad I decided to wander by the other day. This is absolutely reason to switch on that little white box again.
BUH? Magnacarta 2 -
What is this game? I’ve never heard of this game. What is this game? What? Is it supposed to be any good? Why didn’t anybody tell me about it? The screens look good. What? This looks like a major, epic JRPG release exclusive to the 360 and nobody told me about it! WHAT THE CRAP?!?! Maybe it’s supposed to suck, I heard the first one did. But still!
PRETTY! The Last Guardian footage -
There was some new footage shown at TGS. Meet the new footage, same as the old footage. Still, I obviously want this game. Off Screen video here.
PRESS RELEASED! Wii Price Cut Official-
Who cares? I just feel the need to post Nintendo news because I get press releases from them and so I feel special. Far more interesting was the inclusion of a November 15th release date of New Super Mario Bros. The only Wii retail game I intend on buying this entire year. Oops, except Excite Bots. That was this year. That game is STILL awesome.
THAT’S IT FOLKS! That’s all that’s swirling around in my mind at the moment. I’ve been back to work and off my sleeping schedule, but let’s hope that changes tomorrow and you see me back in my regular posting-complete-nonsense form! SUCK IT!

Excite Bots is still surprising me with how awesome it is. The other day, I caught a fish while water skiing. Everyone else I know still hate the game though…hahaha
You know me and Pogo! We both love it!
I don’t understand how anybody can hate that game. It’s amazing. It’s pretty much the only argument for motion controls.
Speaking of motion controls… http://www.jp.playstation.com/scej/title/hustlerking/ is one of the titles announced for the ps3’s fleshlight flashlight-looking thing.
One day in the distant future, you will play Little King’s Story and realize what a man wearing a female wig you are for not trying it sooner.
Well maybe not too distant…my brother in Montreal has it and loves it, so maybe I’ll give it a go when I go there this year…
MAYBE!
Or maybe I won’t to spite you.
Is that a 7thCircle I see?
@Ethos: Spite is the ultimate motivator. It’s kept me going so far :D.
@Riddles: Nope, it’s just some swamp gas. Or a weather baloon.
Never heard of Magna Carta? Its predecessor was a mediocre PS2 KRPG.
Yeah, I never heard of it until this sequel, and I looked into the original and saw the mediocre reviews, but still…you never know…
I played the original, full of promise but ruined with design decissions.
Well hopefully this one keeps the promise and improves on that crap! I at least have an eye on it now.
