I had trouble with the gameplay too. I played the demo when it came out and I couldn't see what was happening with all the explosive graphics around Bayonetta. I felt like I was just mashing buttons blindly. Still, I kinda want to go pick it up and give it another shot since I love over-the-top rediculous boss battles like I've seen from reviews of the game.
Best Xmas game ever! Make it a side scrolling brawler that smashes through wintry scenes with Christmas trees and in Sumo Santa's workshop as he clears it of Bad Mr. Frosty's invasion force. Maybe have him conquer the North Pole. I wonder if something like this can be done in Little Big Planet?
I just watched some more footage of Tomb Raider from the VGX Awards show site. That game gives me chills now every time I see it. It looks fantastic!
I really wanted to like CastleStorm. I loved the graphics and the gameplay but I guess I wasn't very good at it. I couldn't keep those badies off me.
Here's a nice little pressie (as they say in the UK)
Oh yea... and the first two Fleetwood Mac albums are only available on vinyl but you can get all the separate tracks from a Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac compilation I got on CD. Still, those vinyls are unique and the cover art is nowhere else.
Near the end of "Hero Worship" Cindy Williams lets out a primal scream that is just perfectly placed. What a performance! I love that song.
Yea, some stuff is still not on CD. I used to have several vinyl albums that were never released on CD. Two was the first two classical guitarist Christopher Parkening albums. The songs on those albums were placed in perfect order to give the whole albums a great feel and now all you can get is best of collections of him. Luckily I have whole album rips on my computer from when I used to convert vinyl to mp3 files.
I'm still trying to find metal band Savatage's 1983 album Dungeons are Calling which is not on iTunes and may only exist on vinyl.
I think I just heard Skylanders roll right over Disney Infinity with a CRUSH sound. Infinity's roadkill and Skylanders will go on and on and on.
Sounds like De Blob for Wii. Always wanted to play that.
Your mention of Criterion Games’ Need For Speed Most Wanted on Vita recalled to my mind their first Burnout game on PSP, Burnout Legends. I started it thinking it was impossible to translate Burnout to a handheld device, but boy was I wrong. They managed it beautifully! I'm glad to hear they're still doing great work for the Vita.
I wish I could get to the end of those games I played but I'm a bit impatient lately considering my enormous backlog and my limited time. A game's gotta be solid through and through or I'm going to move on to something else.
I hope Sumo Santa brings you lots of toys and challenges you to a wrestling match. Watch out for his Air Blubber. That one's brutal.
