So it's PES10 with tricks and movement from set pieces and 360 movement. Damn if I get htis I'll be winning 20 gaosl a game!

And what do they mean long awaited playmaker v traditional style? You could do traditional on 10. :/

The Copa Libertadores is a great addition, though! And it looks faster than PES10 as well.

By the way, Batman Brave and the Bold came out today. Saw it at Best Buy.

Anyone getting it?

I'm not for now, but just wondering if anyone else was interested.

I wouldn't touch it until it was hobo price. Just because there are other games I would get first and I don't value 2D that highly. It looks like a fun, simple brawler.

First of all, GG is NEVER right.

Second, Hamster is ALWAYS right.

Third, Vista must be different in Europe, because I've been using it for two years now, and I haven't had any problems with it.

Can I sell you some magic beans young squire?

OMG Yoda, I got that FAT 32 error before constantly.

The laptop that causes me all the issues on the podcast... Vista.

What's going on with your PS3 anyway? You have to get it fixed eventually anyway right?

WOOT!!!!!!!!

Capcom announced in this week's issue of Famitsu magazine that a sequel to Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth, the Nintendo DS adventure released here last February, is in the works. The new game, called Gyakuten Kenji 2 in Japanese, lacks a release date for the time being, but a playable demo will be available at Capcom's booth in the Tokyo Game Show next week. (In Japanese, of course. Sorry.)

As before, the adventure will star brilliant, grumpy prosecutor Miles Edgeworth (the main villain in the very first Ace Attorney game -- man, does time fly) as he collects evidence, questions witnesses, and attempts to find the culprit in a series of cases. There'll be some new gameplay gimmicks -- there always are with Ace Attorney sequels -- and Capcom's revealed that one of the cases will make a return visit to Gourd Lake, the location in the first Ace Attorney where Edgeworth was involved in a weird murder plot that very nearly landed him in the slammer.

More info as it comes.

Der, so I updated but River City Ransom is NOT on the European VC. Fuck.

Updates done, seem to be a fair amount of good Batman Brave and the Bold reviews.

WayForward is already known for its jaw-dropping hand-illustrated and frame-by-frame animation process; one need only look at the visual treat that is the developer’s last Wii title, A Boy and His Blob. With Brave and the Bold, the developer brings its A-game, with eye-popping character animation and vivid environments that come to life on the Wii. Even in close-quarters battles, when the camera pulls in tighter on the action, the game still looks stunning in motion.

Batman: The Brave and the Bold doesn’t do anything "bold" in terms of game design, but it doesn’t try to; instead, it delivers a solid and enjoyable experience from beginning to end. It isn’t going to win anyone over for its finger-blistering difficulty, either, so fans looking for an old-school challenge should check their expectations accordingly. But super sharp visuals and clever writing make this a collection of Batman adventures you won’t want to miss.

maybe this friday

This is weird, I'm looking at Nintendo Life and their data and user comments are as if it was already released in EU, and before the US in fact, yet I did a search for "river" and after that for "city" in the VC and it didn't come up, so I went through all 8 pages of NES games and it's not there either... Wtf...

Where is the Ace Attorney Investigation 2 love?!

I was a surprised by the reception it is getting -- conventional wisdom assured suckage -- now I'll have to check it out.

I am an expert when it comes to suckage --AND-- I have the game...

I bought it purely because of Wayforward, not because I was a fan of the Brave and the Bold cartoon.

I was expecting silky smooth animation (a-la A Boy and His Blob) and some relatively hard-core side-scrolling brawling (people on GameFaqs compared it to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for the SNES)...

Unfortunately I got neither.

The graphics are VERY true to the cartoon, but don't have nearly the detail of ABAHB.

The gameplay is EXTREMELY simplistic. One button attacks. Waggle for Strong Attack. The items are hardly relevant at all.

It's fun to hear the dialogue (Robin is particularly sarcastic) and the prduction values are great (It REALLY is presented just like a cartoon)...

...but it is REALLY, REALLY skewed to the younger gamers out there (which I really don't understand 'cause my Nephew is getting to be better at difficult games than me and he's 10!)...

It's a bit of a let down, but I am only in the first few stages of the First Episode. It's a pleasant game, but unless it starts to do something differently, I don't know if I would recommend it.

Edit: I got VERY excited when I saw they included Grappling Hooks in the game, expecting Bionic Commando or Contra 4 elements. The game-mechanic to control the Hook, though...

...Press the " - " key when you see the icon on the screen...

...yeah. That's it.

Metroid Glitch: Players Can't Get Pass Level 3 Reports of "red door" sticking.

If this is what I think it is, it's not a glitch at all. I came upon this door, it was locked yet the game indicator wanted me to go through it. You just backtrack to that room with the consoles where that enemy crab like thing is that shoots out explosive mini crabs. Use the console and that door unlocks.
