Haven't played the demo for Marvelous Entertainment's Half-Minute Hero yet? What are you, disturbed? Your first order of business is to go do that, then check out this epic new trailer, and finally get acquainted with the game's official new Web site.
Originally, I thought there was no way Half-Minute Hero could possibly justify having a full $29.99 asking price. This was a combination of the cool yet minimalistic aesthetic and the whole "it's thirty seconds long (but not really)" thing.
I think that this latest trailer does a good job of proving how it is in fact substantial, and in turn, well worth our time and money. It's one of those rare play-it-and-believe scenarios. Honestly, without PixelJunk Monsters Deluxe and this on the way (October 20), my PSP would be dead to me.
Jordan Devore is Destructoid's PC gaming manager and founding ginger editor. He is said to be easy to love but difficult to know. When Samit inquired about his curious bio photo Jordan simply replied: "bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

I first thought it like another stupid shovelware game. But I downloaded the demo and I'm so excited for this game now x.x I wish it was cheaper but I am totally willing to pay that much for this game now.
Ive been following this game for some times now, but for some reason Ive only realized this:
THE MUSIC IS FREAKING AWESOME!!!!
The concept is so fresh, and frankly, something I wouldn't ever think about in a thousand years :P
I really doubt that this game is going to sell "well", because lets face it, people don't want last decade graphics in their games anymore, unfortunately :(
