Oddly there seem to be two trailers running around. This one (sourced from a Sony website) ends with logos for PS3, PSN, Playstation and Sega. The trailers elsewhere also include logos for Steam, Xbox 360, Xbox Live, and...uh...PEGI. Not sure why Sony's pretending they have an exclusive when they don't...

I swear this happened once.

Also this.

Pretty sure no one's done this yet. Somehow.

Capitalism, ho!

Recettear was partly based around selling crap to adventurers for ridiculous prices so you could pay off Tom Nook's fairy godmother. Or I think that's how the plot went, more or less.

They're usually living in a little room in the middle of a dungeon surrounded by monsters. They somehow manage to find plenty of food and water to survive. They've amassed an enormous quantity of superlative armor and weapons and an infinite supply of ammo, with which they could no doubt buy themselves a nice house or…

Morrowind fixed it better: under the right circumstances you can buy an item back for less than you sold it!

They may be testing the waters of public opinion—in which case speaking out against the idea NOW might actually convince them not to try it. Or they may just be…

I'd get into the detailed mechanics of how beds work in GTA IV, but to make things easier I just grabbed an explanatory image from Primer's Wikipedia page and 'shopped it:

Yes. I can imagine.

Well that's awkward. Apparently Kinja will auto-shrink images that are too wide. Here's the cropped version with (hopefully) more readable text.

I can't help it: someone says over-the-top-evil, I think Star Wars.
