Nice for the poor souls who didn't get to play it on silicon last time around.


With a large budget splurged on this "cursed" rpg title, an international release looks pretty certain:


Metal Slug 7 on DS is sheer genius! Anybody else braving it on Hard?

This looks interesting, won't fit the mario kart wheel though..

Shame about the localised voice "acting", but meh, at least the game will hopefully get the audience it deserves!

I hope it has more longevity than the (overhyped imho) first one. Personally, I'd much rather get my game on with Llamatron on the Amiga than Geometry wars any day, on the other hand its good to see more back to basics gaming being developed and pushed, then again its not really a concept that could / should launch yet another gaming "franchise" imho and would have liked to see the team have done something different instead.
Does anyone know of a foolproof playstation emulator I can download, the ones I've looked at so far have been hard work to download and install requiring several different download sources. Also, and this may well have been covered at length already...is GTA4 simply too dark in places to see what the hell your doing, or is it just me?

anyone played this yet

lovely game. Taking elements of other games, visuals of yoshis island, that one with the reversing time trick and flashback/oddworld etc, and created a beautiful thing that may not be quite ICO territory, but definitely close to that gaming as art area.

Yep - it's just beautiful. From the moment you realise the game has started (with you in silhouette) to the ideas presented in what appears to be a straightforward platform 2D effort.


This and geometry wars 2 from a week or so back have kept me busy on the console front - classic stuff

N+ for DS

Oh and also, Bakuretsu muteki Bangaioh, a cult hit on the N64 (sold mine for a fortune, heh) and the pirated to death Dreamcast, had a kind of remix sort of thing out on the DS earlier this year, funnily enough it seems its out in English now.




Old skool enough?


Was having a discussion with someone from a company that designs and manufactures chips for Nintendo, and we both came to the same conclusion - the DS is just toooo good! Just what can Nin do to top it????

    • I was in Forest Hill Road today, just past the Rye, and noticed there is a dentist next to the Herne (pub) that has NHS signs outside. I've never had any problems getting NHS dental treatment in East Dulwich, and I get regular check ups. I've been to three  different dental practices here over the years, all with NHS treatment. I think the difficulties are in other parts of the country. Malumbu has a good explanation above. I didn't hear the Radio 4 programme, but I'm guessing that a  radio programme is not going to have time to say where you CAN easily get NHS treatment, and is bound to focus on the negatives and the horror stories, otherwise it would be very boring! ETA: Re children's teeth, I think the major issue is not lack of dentists, it is children being given sugary food, drinks and confectionery which rots their teeth. The education of parents needs to be about this, not just about tooth brushing. And in some cases the poor diet may also be due to lack of money for healthy food. Though of course the lack of dentists doesn't help, if  the tooth rotting can't be rectified by fillings or extraction.
    • Well, I hope you like what you see, the hot air, lack of answers and continual blaming things on the last Government and the made up blackhole, I find are nauseating. The man needs to see reality, because I'd guess that if we had a snap election tomorrow and based on the first six months of this parliament, Labour would get trounced. When the election does finally happen and if that isn't before the people rise up and throw this lot out, Labour will not be voted back in for a millennium.  
    • Yes thanks that's exactly the choices I get.  I will block and if somehow they find a way back I'll report.
