"nks for your generosity. For some reason I can't help but to think of a cross between Psychonauts and an FPS when reading the description for Dreamkiller. Hmm"

"ing on Pokemon quickly, I feel that if Nintendo utilized the license to make a Pokemon MMO (or hell, even a "regular" Pokemon in 3D on Wii as Ashley says above) people would be all over it. Unfortunately Nintendo would not be the company I'd trust to properly construct and maintain a breathing digital MMO world, and I believe I've read somewhere that the series creator wishes for the game to remain a portable franchise, surely because no real changes have been made to the franchise in nearly a decade.
I bought Pearl when was released, played it for a bit and realized nothing had changed in the damn thing since I'd played Red when it first came out. For shame"

"hink what worked for the Bioshock demo is a) the demo was kept short (a little under twenty minutes) and b) it easily conveyed all of the game mechanics held in the final product in an interesting and non-contrived way. If a product is good and the developer has faith in it, the demo will usually convey their support for the product. The RE5 demo felt like a spastic mess to me, to the point where I'm not sure if I'd even rent the game at this point.
As for those who are unable to buy games on a whim: don't worry about it. As soon as you get over the need for having to be involved in the latest and greatest thing, your psyche (and wallet) are set free. I'm finishing up my last year of college this year and I still only buy games on some sort of sale. Services like Steam are great for saving some cash on slightly older games or even newer releases. Even if you don't play on the PC too much, waiting serves you, the customer, because games will inevitably drop in price. I loved the Mirrors Edge demo, but I knew from everything I'd read and heard on podcasts that there was no way I'd pay $60 for such a short game. Five and a half months later, it's down to the much more affordable $20"

"ellent review, I must say that I found the game to be even more addictive than Peggle and for $9.99 on Steam I feel like I got my monies worth out of the title. It's not quite as user friendly as Peggle's one shot interface but it does a great job of remixing the tower defense genre while keeping it interesting for experienced players.
Zombotomy mode is a bitch that I will unfortunately not get back to. Zombies that fir back are to much too much for my meager brain"
