Yup. I can't remember when was the first time I tamed the one eyed monster. So many things has said monster seen through his one peeping eye ever since...

Whoa I want this game.

The graphics look like hand-drawn charcoal, and the sounds are minimal. There are no voices, and no clear explanation of what's going on. What's clear is that dying is easy, and it will happen often. There is no real penalty for losing your life—checkpoints are frequent—and many of the puzzles seem designed to kill you at least once before you understand the mechanic needed to move forward. You play the part of a small boy trying to rescue his sister, and you can expect him to be impaled, dropped, drowned, poisoned, and crushed.

Only on Xbox Live Arcade for now...

I am REALLY impressed by the quality of some of the down-loadable games I've played lately!

Ever play Trine?

I just had to Google that to be sure. Why do I always have to do the opposite of what I'm told?

I thought about getting Trine on this last Steam sale (it was $4.00), but a couple games got my attention and by the time I decided to get it, the special deal was over. I'll probably get a PSN card in a month or two (have to import them because we STILL don't have them over here, lol). Trine is definitely one of the games I'll pick up.

Amazing. . . I thought the above post would automatically bring the entire forum out at once. I figured that was just ripe for too many easy jokes. That's usually all it takes to bring out the lurkers.
