Totally forgot that the S&S app is not available everywhere. My bad!

I dont have Trials... never played either of them...

Here is hoping Spartacus Legends is cool, the show was great for the first two seasons but i couldnt watch the new guy play spartacus.

For those that didnt know the original Spartacus (for the tv series) died from a bout of something... cancer i think :(

Andy Whitfield. His name is Andy Whitfield.

And my wishlist for 12 days is Fez, NiGHTS, ME3: From the Ashes, Double Dragon: Neon, Dust, Hell Yeah!, Jet Set Radio, Mark of the Ninja and Walking Dead. Though still hoping for a deal FINALLY on Rocket Knight and Half-Minute Hero.

My two biggest wants for the end of the year sales are Mark of the Ninja and Half-Minute Hero. Anything else will just be a bonus.

Bill and Melinda Gates give hundreds of millions of dollars each year to charities. They have literally saved the lives of hundreds of thousands of people from Malaria. That makes him a good guy in my book. How many lives have you and Phil Fish saved so far?
Not a good comparison.

I forgot about these. Nice! The first two have the advantage of being published by the most sale-happy publisher out there, but I believe Rocket Knight is beyond hope, sadly.

I dunno. The Indie Game movie sounded like a lot of the money would go to his estranged partner too, which would just drive Phil Fish nuts even more.

Personally, I don't like to base my shopping on anything but the product at hand. If I started avoiding businesses, developers, etc. because of reasons not related to the product, that would severely limit my choices and also require a lot of research and work on my part. Maybe I am just too lazy to care. That being said, if there is something so egregious that I can't ignore, I might bend this rule. It's rare but it happens.

I've settled my mind to grab Half-Minute Hero on Steam since that version retains almost all modes of the PSP one, with a couple of minor exceptions.

IMHO, an ENHANCED port should, by definition, enrich and expand what's already in the game, instead they cut off all extra modes (a shoot'em up, a mini-RTS and a sort of puzzle/beat'em up) from the XBLA edition to make space for a new art style which is, to say the least, not very good.

Sure, the core game is still there with all its charming frenzy and I suspect they may have planned to release the missing content through DLC, but I loved the original and was searching for a "complete" port to double dip, so I don't think I'll jump on the XBLA one even at a discounted price...

A deal on rocket knight in the S&S tomorrow would blow my mind... i forgot it was even online... maybe i should cave on the 1200 price point, me and sparkster go way back

Oh... you're right, they still haven't released that Wallace Pack DLC announced last summer? And I was hoping to get a discount on it... still, Scott Pilgrim is a fun couch co-op romp

If these people actually avoided bad businesses they'd have to add Epic to that list, as well as any game with their Unreal engine. That would seriously limit how many games they could play.

Do you know how many games get released every week across all platforms? Unless you like elitist pricks, that is, which doesn't seem like a stretch for you.

sounds to me like a guy like phil fish stole your girlfriend while growing up and you haven't gotten over it

the grudge only affects you "pal", nobody else

it wasn't a serious comparison, just pointing out how silly some of you are

i once gave cpr to a heart attack victim and they survived, so that's one life i helped save

Beyond Good and Evil HD is one of my favorites.

Just a heads up, the Namco Museum disc is now $8.99 used at BestBuy.com. So you can save $1 now.

Wait, what? What did Epic do wrong?

Sure is a lot of dick swaggering going on in here.
