Hotel Dusk looks interesting, but I'm going to read some reviews before I make a purchase.

Is it just me or does the Inuyasha game look like a rip off of Suikoden?

I'm looking foward to Hotel Dusk, it's got some big potential (and hopefully delivers). I miss that kind of style, and now with a touchscreen puzzles and things are a lot more fun.

I too will wait for reviews to make any kind of monetary commitment.

Lot of hype and anticipation for Contact, but many who purchased it said they regretted it. Gonna wait on Hotel Dusk too.

I could have sworn InuYasha's popularity fizzled out a while ago, if not midway through the anime, then at the anime's horrible ending. I missed all the episodes from the end of the Band of Seven arc until the last episode, and watching that episode, I realized that nothing happened. Nothing was resolved, and nothing was going to resolve. What a waste of time. Just like this game, from the looks of it.

It's Alien Shooter:Vengeance for me this round, no thinking, just gunning and evading hordes of monsters.

I cant be bothered by portable games. They cant match up and are too exibisionistically nerdy (PSP/DS for gamers is like black cloths and 20 piecings for Goths).

Your mom is morning!

Haha, just kidding...it all depends on what type of person/gamer you are. Some people find RPGs boring and others find them incredibly exciting!

This game looks like it could be really good or really bad. So as a DS fan-boy, I'm conflicted.

Tiger would you be conflicted to petition a ban against me if I embeded a fleet of humping stormtroopers on your blog??

The VC releases should be announced shortly -- we know for sure Comic Zone, Bonanza Bros., and Gain Ground (all Genesis titles) should be available.

Alien shooter is a strong contender for worst title of the year, but looks pretty fucking fun. Godawful website for it too. I'd like to know why that game needs a 4 page backstory.
