Holy Invasion of Privacy, Badman!: What Did I Do to Deserve This? is one of those games that, ten years ago, never would have made it outside of Japan. In other words, it's pure gaming hilarity wrapped up in a fast-paced strategy bundle suited perfectly for the PSP.
The sequel, which is coming here under the utterly awesome name Holy Invasion of Privacy, Badman! 2: Time to Tighten Up Security!, is headed for a spring 2010 release. Along with the date announcement, NIS America has put forth a delightfully sinister trailer right here.
My strategy for the original game consisted of randomly digging tunnels like a madman until I ran out of dig power and then leaving fate in the hands of my minions. Since my lizardmen were lazy and my dragons were straight up unaffectionate dicks, I always scored poorly.
However, there's hope yet. The Badman 2 trailer shows something called "The Overlord's Chamber" -- unless I'm mistaken, it looks like a mode in which you can basically screw around and watch your ecosystem grow. My prayers have been answered!

"bitches love sandcastles" ... yet, there is no sandcastle in that photo. We may never truly understand his ways.

Avoiding the banhammer only requires common sense: spamming, trolling, racism, NSFW stuff, and other forms of sucking will not be tolerated. If anyone is griefing please report abuse. Be good. Don't suck!
Anyway, I like the sense of humor going on there. Hopefully the gameplay is just as good.
However it was fun while it lasted.
You forgot Super and Turbo at the beginning and end, respectively.
Don't hate me, you said it.
I kind of wish You could level Badman as a unit as well, maybe you can, but I'm just hopeful.
