Pulseman! Hooray! Can't wait to download that one. I may also buy Bit Boy!! out of sheer, morbid curiosity to see just how bad it really appears to be.
Incoming, as everyone else has noted, looks like a rejected Flash game. Ant Nation... just looks too strange for me to ever care about. Couldn't care less about Secret Command either. But, at least I still have Pulseman.
Where on earth was Tales of Monkey Island though? And where exactly is my Icarian?! Screw the name change, that game has been out in Europe long enough that releasing it here by now seems without excuse.
No kubos i am really happy about 2 vc games anybody know how many weeks its been seens that? any im at my grandparnts house so if ssb and come out i would be able to geet till tommorrow
I hope the 2 game VC weeks continue for many months and years to come. I may have to give Pulseman and Secret Command a look. And Bit Boy has peaked my interest. I think it may be a better than most say.
