Leo, STEAM question: Do you think that the American references could get grating for us Europeans?  I mean, how well known are the characters, and how in your face stereotypically American is the game overall?

It's really not as 'MERICAN as people believe. It's as gung-ho as the average comic book. If you can take them, the game shouldn't be grating at all. It even starts off in London defending the Queen.

The characters are mostly American literary figures: Tom Sawyer, John Henry, Henry Fleming, among others, and a character(s) from The Wizard of Oz... The characters barely even mention their stories of origin. To be honest, though I know all the names, I've forgotten their stories for the most part too. They boil down to characters in a strategy game; sometimes the race or backgrounds of the characters influence their sub-weapons or strengths, but you can still switch up their arsenals anyway. The Lion pounces, John Henry has a "Bear" grenade gun... The characters just provide excuses for diversification of their weaponry, but that's about it... No fore-knowledge of their stories is necessary at all. You'll probably know more about them than you think, but considering this game as made by a Japanese developer, it's pretty multi-national friendly...

Is it download only?  When is it out in Europe?  I want Majora's Mask and this game for the 3DS though goodness knows when I will get to play them (or anything else).

Coming out in May in Europe. Don't know if you have been paying attention to it or not. It got some good reviews and some pretty bad ones as well. I --LOVE-- it, but not everyone does. Try to play the demo first!

No, I haven't been paying attention to it, nor to any other games news for that matter.  I have you to thank for even knowing what it is and not thinking it's some kind of PC only indie game.  Having loved Intelligent Systems' (hated realising I am no longer able to abbreviate this) games before and your comments are enough indications to make me want to play it.  I need to start using demos when they are available though, that's a good idea.

This is probably the most optimistic review out there; I chose it more so you can see the gameplay style than anything else, though.

Anybody interested in Ukelele onXBO?  Arch?

I don't even know what that is.

I'm going to take a wild guess, and say Travo's post is another victim of auto-correct?

007 Quantum of Solace is utter shit. I seriously had to check this was not a PS2 game.

But I will keep going.
