Quantcast



When Square Enix isn't busy whoring out its major videogame franchise to anyone who'll listen, it can be found in a street corner bar, a glass of merlot in hand, looking down on all and sundry behind gilded spectacles, for it is a wine drinker. Wine drinkers are better than everyone else, you see, and Squeenix is set to prove it with a new -- I suppose "game" -- How to begin with Wine DS

With a title that looks like it's trying to encourage children to put a first foot on their glorious path toward alcoholism, Square Enix is helping all players begin with wine by including a bottle of the stuff with the game -- provided by partner Mercian. The software itself will teach budding wine fans all about the noble drink, with a range of tests and lists. Sounds thrilling, doesn't it?

Don't worry, I'm sure they found a way to smuggle Sephiroth into it somehow. Maybe he has a vineyard or something.

I actually want this "game". It sounds so cool!

They need to make a coffee one too though.

"What do you want for dinner?"
"Tiramisu fried in sugar!"

Everyone needs to see Dylan Moran.

Care for a glass of Chardonnay, Sir Sterling? I want this, too. Can't help being a wine fag.

Who the fuck is Dylan Moran? He's damn funny.

Also keep an eye out for How To Begin with American Beer DS, which comes with a six-pack of MGD, a funnel, and a length of plastic tubing.

I've seriously always wished I were a wine connoisseur, but I'm too poor to be one. Will this game help me? Is it even coming out in the US?
