New Ratchet and Clank!!!!!!!

seems like ps3 though. Reveal tomorrow.

Why do I have a strange feeling that it's going to be a cross-over game... Ratchet and Clank & Jak and Daxter...?

Insomniac is Ratchet and Clank, but that image is almost definitely a Rift Gate from Jak and Daxter...

Nice catch Leo.

---

So my internet cap resets on the 10th at midnight every month.  Yesterday I have 600 MB left to be able to download, but I found out through experimenting a few month ago, that if you go over your cap while in the process of downloading, they don't/ can't downgrade your internet speed so long as you are connected.

So I was able to get 5GB of DL's last night for free.  Just in time fo rthe Steam Sale.

Here's an interesting bit of news. Florida is getting a video game theme park. Details of the actual park are sketchy, but at the start of November there's a weekend long launch party event in downtown Ft. Meyers where they're going to announce the details. - http://gamenationparks.com/ Friend of mine who runs a geek news website met the head of their marketing department at a convention this weekend and got a few vague inside bits of info. Should be interesting to see how this unfolds.

Yeah, especially on the licensing part.  Even Sony had no luck in getting licensing for their All-Star game (from publishers they have good relationships with) -- if you catch my drift.

No loss though, even if it is just a giant arcade where you can drink beer it'd be a plus.

From what the website says they're just going to give you a "video game experience" whatever the fuck that means. Pretty sure it's a nice of way of saying, "no licensed games except for probably Angry Birds since they whore themselves out for everything." At this moment I think the most interesting thing is where they're going to announce it. According to the conversation my friend had he was told they're not having it where the launch party is (Ft. Meyers) and it won't be in Orlando. That pretty much narrows it down to Tampa since you've got Busch Gardens already out there. There's an outside chance though of the area near the Kennedy Space Center since they hit hard when NASA closed and a theme park could mean money for them. I don't really see this going down in any other area of the state though.

^ That's Michael Biehn, Aspro. Metal Gear is an obvious Terminator knockoff.

Don Johnson is 63.

People like the weapons. And there is little overhead, it's basically pure gaming.

=-=-

I am now exactly half way through Bioshock Infinite, I cannot wait to finish this game if not just to see if and how they redeem the game so far.  I can see there will be some pay-off, just want to see if it offsets the first half.

Fortunately I have all day tomorrow to do nothing but play.
