Generally speaking, there doesn't seem to be much rhyme or rhythm to the Xbox LIVE Arcade release schedule. But if I had to make a guess, I'd say the theme for this Wednesday's games, Gyromancer and Diner Dash, is that of soul-eating addictiveness.
Though the release dates aren't exactly new, the prices -- 1200 Microsoft Points for Gyromancer and 800 for Diner Dash -- totally are. In a rare move, I'm giving a thumbs up to both titles this week; assuming you can make the time. We are currently in this year's craziest period for gaming, after all.
What'll it be? One, both, or neither? I was going to blindly buy Gyromancer without trying the demo, but now that we know it's $15 for sure, perhaps not. Something about that extra five bucks is a huge downer. Completely silly, I know, but tell me you don't feel the same way sometimes.
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.
