@chunky_Droid: I dont care. im too lazy to be a mod anyway. Maybe I can get away with honorary mod (as in I can just say Im a mod, but I actually dont do anything)
@O_B: I wasnt a huge gameplay Braid fan. The whole puzzle thing didnt get me. However, the story is the best, deepest, and most thought inducing I've ever seen in a game.
Anyway, Indie devs rock. Some of the best games this gen come from them!
I still would have to say this is inferior to MM9 (should have been a 10). Why did ya give MM9 a 9 Corbie! That game is way better than Onslaught, LWinds, FFCC, and Toki Tori. But anyway, back on topic.
Is the main reason this gets a 9 is pricing? Because I think 600 points is fair for what your getting, but if it was, lets say, 1000, I would be kinda upset.
First, controls work suprisingly well. Despite being motion, they are spot on, and work excellently. But, this is hard. Not hard like MM9 or Ninja Gaiden, where I can say "Oh, that was my fault, Ill get it next time." This is frustrating. It's quite possibly the most ruthless game Ive played. I hear its the difficulty curve though, not the game, so in a few more days, maybe Ill own at it. Despite being uber frustrating though, BTB, is fun. Fun, yes, remember that? If you dont BTB will make you. I dont know how it is, it just is fun. Thats why I recommend it to everybody.
8/10
@joeshadadoo: Theres leaderboards, its on the menu under High Scores.
Oh Jesus. Another 9/10. I was expecting a 7 (obviously ), maybe an 8. But a 9! Its Onsluaght all over! Guess I have to stick with my promise I made and buy it. You just love sucking the money out of me don't you
And let's be honest, you'll just put all that cash onto new arcade machines
On a somewhat unrelated note, I thought you guys didnt get paid to do this and you have actually jobs. Or was I wrong. It would make sense, especially after your Vc_Reviews away message (the one about having nothing better to do on a Friday night)

Re: Target Confirms 1000 Free DSi Points
@Stuffgamer: Aw. But still, not a bad deal.
Re: USA WiiWare Update - Pop 'Em Drop 'Em SameGame
The first thing I thought was "I dont like puzzlers, so whatever."
Then I went "Well, Drake and Wiiloveit love it (pun intended), so Ill give it a shot!"
Third I remembered I bought Bit Trip and only had 400 points.
Finally, I said "Aw **** "
Re: Target Confirms 1000 Free DSi Points
@Crazed: You have to remember, some of these cost $2.
Re: Target Confirms 1000 Free DSi Points
@Wiiloveit: Let us both wait. Agreed
Re: Target Confirms 1000 Free DSi Points
@Wiiloveit: My intuition says there will be. I cant name any, but there will be. Just wait
Re: DSiWare to Become Nintendo's App Store?
@Corbie: You just love torturing me, don't ya
@Wiiloveit: So that still leaves "7outof10.coom" and "ZEROpwns.com"
Re: Target Confirms 1000 Free DSi Points
@Wiiloveit: There will be, there always is.
As for the pirce, Gamestop is having a special; trade in your DSLite and get the DSi 70% off. Not a bad deal, upgrade your DS for only 40 bucks.
Re: DSiWare to Become Nintendo's App Store?
@Dazza: So there will be a seperate site. Might I suggest "ZEROpwns.net"
@Stuffgamer: Glad to see Im doing my job
Re: Target Confirms 1000 Free DSi Points

Re: DSiWare Wants You to Mind Your Manners
Im American. Over here, manners are only important at restaurants
Re: DSiWare to Become Nintendo's App Store?
Wait. Chicken is a MOD
I guess I have been living under a rock.......
Anyway, these better be useful like a calender or calculator or something. The last thing I want to do is spend $2 on a picture of a candle.
Re: Korogashi Puzzle Katamari Comes to DSiWare!
Katamari made me smile
Puzzle made me sad
Re: Indie Developers Enjoy Great Success in 2008
@O_B: I wasnt a huge gameplay Braid fan. The whole puzzle thing didnt get me. However, the story is the best, deepest, and most thought inducing I've ever seen in a game.
Anyway, Indie devs rock. Some of the best games this gen come from them!

Re: Top 20 WiiWare Games in USA (18th Mar)
@Corbie: Which, if you take out the one, is a 7
Re: Legendo Announces The Three Musketeers: One For All!
Dosnt look all that good honesty.
Re: Master of Illusion and Brain Training Coming to DSiWare
@Chicken Brutus: What really makes your proud is getting mentioned in a WWW article. Who was that guy who was mentioned again, I forgot his name?
Re: Top 20 WiiWare Games in USA (18th Mar)
@Corbie: My prediction is Bit Trip will be number 7 next week. Not because of your love for 7s or anything of course
Re: Master of Illusion and Brain Training Coming to DSiWare
First (again)
I want more info on master of Illusion. Looks different (could care less about another Brain game).
Any news on a Brain game for Language Arts? I have serious problems with that.
Re: Top 20 WiiWare Games in USA (18th Mar)
The Big 3 made a comeback..... what a suprise.
Let us all take a moment of silence for MM9, one of the best WW games of all time.
takes hat off
@KS8: Im still stuck on the first one. Go my mad skillz
Also, great to see Bit Trip doing so well
Re: Phantasy Star Zero Mini Coming to DSiWare
For 200 point demos, if I'll pay. Fir 200 points, even the smallest things are a great deal
Re: Review: Bit.Trip: Beat (WiiWare)
@wirocks: I have glasses too. I feel your pain

Re: Review: Bit.Trip: Beat (WiiWare)
I DLed this, and here is my mini-review:
First, controls work suprisingly well. Despite being motion, they are spot on, and work excellently. But, this is hard. Not hard like MM9 or Ninja Gaiden, where I can say "Oh, that was my fault, Ill get it next time." This is frustrating. It's quite possibly the most ruthless game Ive played.

8/10
@joeshadadoo: Theres leaderboards, its on the menu under High Scores.
Re: Phantasy Star Zero Mini Coming to DSiWare
@Venomtheevil: Oops. I knew PS was RPGs, I thought this was a PS MMORPG, because the regular PSZ is a MMO for DS.
Re: GameLoft Enters the DSiWare Market
UNO!!!!
Love to 360, portablee would be sick
Re: ColorZ - New WiiWare Puzzler
I got to keep an eye on this. Looks quite neat.
Re: Phantasy Star Zero Mini Coming to DSiWare
First
How are they going to pull off an MMO on DSiWare? Makes no sense, especially for only 200!
Re: Review: Bit.Trip: Beat (WiiWare)
Oh Jesus. Another 9/10. I was expecting a 7 (obviously ), maybe an 8. But a 9! Its Onsluaght all over! Guess I have to stick with my promise I made and buy it.
You just love sucking the money out of me don't you
Re: USA WiiWare Update: Bit.Trip Beat
@Corbie: So can we be expecting a review by Wednesday?
Re: Luc Bernard Is Back With New Studio, Oyaji Games
@Dazza: I vote to the United States. You can witness the fat, stupid, Halo-playing wonders that are us Americans for yourself from a safe distance
Re: USA WiiWare Update: Bit.Trip Beat
@Corbie: Not a suprise. We all here know how you got the money to pay for those arcade machines
Re: USA WiiWare Update: Bit.Trip Beat
I dont have an awsome TV, so it dosnt affect me
Re: Luc Bernard Is Back With New Studio, Oyaji Games
@Corbie: Guess you really are as evil as your avatar
Re: Nnooo Interview - Pop Plus: Solo
@O_B: 500? Looks like a buy for me then.
@Ricardo: Its fan-made, dosnt count.
Re: USA WiiWare Update: Bit.Trip Beat
@Corbie: Maybe you'll accidently type in 8/10 instead of 7 for your score then
Re: Nnooo Interview - Pop Plus: Solo
Pokemon MMO? Never going to happen, but a nice though.
Anyway, any news on the DSi version pricing?
And can anone recomend the WW Pop to me?
Re: Defend Your Castle receives 2009 ELAN Awards nomination
Good for them, I like the WW version.
Re: USA WiiWare Update: Bit.Trip Beat
@KS8: You bought a WW game. Why am I not suprised
@Corbie: WOnt take long. You already know the score
Re: Luc Bernard Is Back With New Studio, Oyaji Games
@Corbie: What, no Ferrari
And let's be honest, you'll just put all that cash onto new arcade machines
On a somewhat unrelated note, I thought you guys didnt get paid to do this and you have actually jobs. Or was I wrong. It would make sense, especially after your Vc_Reviews away message (the one about having nothing better to do on a Friday night)
Re: Luc Bernard Is Back With New Studio, Oyaji Games
HOLY ****!!!!!
HENRY HATSWORTH
Re: Luc Bernard Is Back With New Studio, Oyaji Games
Great, now all is need is Luc to actually release a game so I can get excited about this guy.
Re: Pop Plus: Solo Coming to DSiWare
DSiWare I hope becomes more than stripped down games. Thats good and all, but I want original titles.
Re: Pop Plus: Solo Coming to DSiWare
Cool, but I still am debating whether or not to get regular Pop.
