its insane what some people do to there animals

Yeah. I feel sorry for those animals. I know they love their pets and it can be very hard turning down the "puppy dog" eyes when it comes to giving them treats but in the long run it's much better to keep them healthy.

Cats don't have puppy dog eyes.

So Team Meat sending a big Christmas Fuck You to Wii owners by cancelling the project altogether (they did say a retail version was, though not altogether out of the question, highly unlikely).

Such arrogance annoys me.  It's not the way to treat a large chunk of fanbase.  I bought the game during the Steam sale the other day. I wish I hadn't

One problem with these indy games lately has been the prices spiking up. Games like Super Meat Boy and Limbo are very good, without a doubt, but do you guys think they should be $15 (or 1200pts)?

I can understand why games like Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light or Shadow Complex are $15 since they look more like retail games. But $15 for the more indy games like Limbo, Braid, or Super Meat Boy are a bit expensive, IMO. They would be much better as $10 games...or maybe even $12 games.

I agree with you completely, I did a thread about this in the forum not too long ago.  I want to get Limbo but I can't bring myself to do so knowing I'd be paying £12 worth of points.  It is too much.  Sadly I think I'm also going to miss the chance to buy it half price on new year's eve as I will likely be away

^Yeah, plus also it was a technical limitation from what I understand. They couldn't get it under the MB cap Nintendo has set for DL games.

No big loss.

Just saw the news on Castlevania 3DS. Cool!

But...I wonder if Iga and his team is making another 2D Vania. If so, I hope they revamp the sprites or do a 2.5D thing because I don't know if I want recycled sprites in 3D...if it even works in 3D!

Owners of buggy or glitchy video games are entitled to a full refund, Trading Standards has said on record.


          Rules state that all goods should be of "satisfactory quality" it's said, which means (at launch at least) you should be entitled to your Black Ops PS3 and Fallout: New Vegas money back.



          Speaking in a recent interview, Joint Lead Officer Sylvia Rook from the Trading Standards Institute said: "When consumers buy goods their rights are always against the retailer, so if there is a problem with a game, the consumer should return it to the retailer.


          "The Sale of Goods Act 1979 (as amended) states that goods should be of satisfactory quality, fit for their purpose and as described. If the game is faulty, then the consumer should be entitled to a refund from the retailer (although it is not unreasonable for the retailer to return it to the manufacturer in order to ensure it is, indeed, faulty and it is not operator error, or a problem with the consumer's computer)."


          Rook added that gamers wanting a refund should stop using the game immediately, otherwise they may only be entitled to claim for damages.


          "If consumers wish to exert their statutory rights, they should stop using the game immediately as if they continue to use it they might lose the right to reject it and might then be entitled only to damages," Rook said.


          "If the consumer wishes, they can also request a repair or replacement, but they don't have to accept this if they do not want to."


          Treyarch put out another Black Ops PS3 patch earlier this week which hopefully sorted issues.

I already used my right to return the buggy Black Ops for the speedtastic Sonic Colours. I like this law, it defeats this patching BS too. If the game doesn't work properly from the get go you can get a refund and f*** the patches.

Anyone know how to roast a duck?

Finished Alan Wake.  LOVED IT.  I may write a review since I don't think anyone else here has yet.

Now what should I play next, Red Dead Redemption or Donkey Kong Country ... decisions decisions.

Sadly there wont be a Christmas level in De Blob 2.
