So i was looking for some Mirror's Edge news and I came across this little diddy.  It's a 2D Flash version of Mirror's Edge, and while it's just a demo level it's really freaking fun.  Go play it.

So, how long until Death Knights get the dreaded nerf? I'm guessing about a month.

It will be after they nerf Elemental Shams, so that they actually give the tanks a chance to compete with their dps.

I think I'll finish Banjo-Kazooie before I get seriously involved in Nuts & Bolts, because allegedly

Getting the Stop N Swop items in BK unlocks special vehicle parts in Nuts & Bolts

Also, I think Mirror's Edge may be a sleeper hit this holiday season. Of course, I'm just basing this off the fact that I sold over 20 copies at work on Saturday, so who knows.
Hearing that it only takes 7-8 hours to beat the whole thing kinda turned me off from buying it, but I've bought short games before and enjoyed them through multiple playthroughs (see: Prince of Persia series), so I'll give ME a rent and see if it's worth the $60.

Mortal Combat vs. Dc Universe out today!!!! Rejoice! Throw a tea party! Milk a Cow!

I am excited! 

[Sonic the Werewolf.]

I'll rent it, but censoring the Joker's fatality was an unforgivable offense. I definitely won't buy that game.

Edit: Hey, I found all the finishing moves!
Don't worry, none of them are super gory or violent. It's rated T for Teen, after all.

That game looks awful and boring. I thought Midway used to do good things; maybe I'm thinking of a different company.

You are.

Hmm, have to see if I can rent it. Or school will have the game. Which doesn't seem likely, but they've gotten Force Unleashed, MGS4, Halo 3, and Orange Box all right when they came out.

There was one real reason that I signed up for the DS feed from IGN, and that was for any Ace Attorney news. Well, check this out.

A look at the second case of the Prosecutor spin-off which is starring Edgeworth. Sounds interesting and definitely intriguing.

I recently started my second playthrough of Tales of Symphonia. (Yes, I know, I started my second playthrough a while ago but my memory card got corrupted before even the second seal so I'm not counting that).

It's fun looking for foreshadowing in the first part of the game.

(slight hints at huge spoilers)

"Oh, that's why Kratos said he made a mistake."

"Oh, that's why Genis said he finally found a home."

"Oh, that's why Kratos was so nice to Noishe."

"Oh, that's why Sheena was praying to save the world at the House of Salvation"

[HUGE 2 tha DORK]

Oh, that's why Bonkava changed his name to Zelos Wilder. (because he plays Tales of Symphonia)

Remind me again how i missed this story back in September?
