    Xenoblade Chronicles Coming to America

    If you like Final Fantasy XII at all, you should get this game. Not only because of the similar gameplay mechanics, but also because of the sheer vastness and beauty of the world.

    A question for non-Americans!

    Did watch it, despite the fact that my KC Chiefs did their usual choke and lost in the first week of the playoffs (at home, no less) and I had no real stake in the result. Congrats to the Green Bay Packers, see there's life beyond Favre and his sexting antics. I'm Aussie, btw.

    Zero Punctuation: A Shadow's Tale

    We Aussies have been banging on about slow release dates for games (especially YOU, Nintendo) for ages now. It's nice that someone with some presence in the global gaming community is doing it on our behalf now.
