@KM91: Thanks. It is really a let down that they expect people to just drop cash for a game without a demo/trial. That is the one big advantage of XBLA. I am interested in both the LostWinds and the Final Fantasy one, but no demo means no money. I have grabbed Wii titles on reviews/friends, and have hated them…

Are there playable demos of any wiiware titles?

I have not been banned yet for my Tag (Kosher Infidel), and I have to admit I should. It could be read as offensive to both Jews and Muslims, though I never meant it that way. I suppose that I too am guilty of 'flouting' my personal lifestyle choice with it...I am an atheist, which you could read from the tag. …

hmmm...Baldur and...Loki? bwahahahaha...so wrong, but so interesting.

Shit, if it had been Sony in the lead, Dille would have been all about bragging.

Just FYI, it is no longer CliffyB, he now answers to Cliff Bleszinski. Major nelson and Geoff Keighley were sort of goofing on this on one of MN's podcasts recently. CB has grown up.

Thanks to getting a PS3, I can finally play the SOCOM series...I had NO idea of what I was missing. I am a TacBang guy and these games are incredible. I bought all of them for the PS3 (2) and the PSP. Not sure why people are down on 3, I love the inclusion of vehicles.

Played Haze last night/this am early and it just felt rather generic. The Nectar dosing basically functioned like thermal goggles, unless you over-dose and go berserk. For those that enjoyed it, is it that you think it so over-the-top awesome, or is it just because it is a PS3 exclusive shooter (for now and…

@Kempatsu: You sound like a crazy person.

Congrats PC gamers, this edition sounds as if it will be amazing.

Holy shit son...you mean I get to play an Uruk-hai and genocide the halflings? OMG! Best news day evar, confirmed.

@UFO: Yeah, first I heard of it was from chopper guys, so it may come from that old school 'outlaw' set. I have never found any other references, but I always thought it was interesting.

Hmmm, green is traditionally a bad luck color for bikes/bikers.

well, with such quality tittles, how can they not be made of awesome and win?

yeah, it is awesome, but a non-HD system? No thanks.
