      I bought Castlevania and Enslaved today. Going to start Enslaved tomorrow. In total though, I spent $37 on Enslaved and $52 on Castlevania AND have $45 in gaming coupons. I love KMART.

        Just turned on my PS3 to find out that I have access to the Dead Space 2 multiplayer beta. Anyone else with PS+ have this?

          Finished DeathSpank today. I really enjoyed it. I finished it with 98% completion and 100% of the trophies. I think the missing 2% were treasure chests. I just didn't feel like traversing the entire world again and looking for the ones that I couldn't unlock previously. I know i ended up with like 14 extra chest keys. LOL.

            Glad you liked it. Thongs of Virtue is like the first one on steroids. In my opinion it's funnier too. The only downside is, it is really just more of the same, just longer and a little more unique. I personally loved more of the same and the humor is some of the best out there, so I was fine with it.

              Yeah, that's what I figured. I checked out the trophy list and that's exactly what it appeared to be based on those. Just based on the larger amount of outhouses I figured it was a bit longer.

              My only gripe with the game, and it's a small one, is how they break down the stats. It tell syou how many missions, side missions, treasures, etc you have completed but it doesn't tell you the total. It should say 33/35 treasures or something like that.

              I kind of knew I should've taken notes of the treasure chests that I found but couldn't open because I knew my old ass wasn't going to remember. Or they could've showed up on the map once you located them. Oh well, I guess I'll stay at 98%.

              But you absolutely can't beat it for $15. I think it took me about 9-10 hours and it was pretty damn funny.

                  It wasn't too tough on All-American, for the few minutes I was playing it. Haha. I enjoyed it.

                    Good Read about Heavenly Sword 2 and how it would have been epic!!!

                    With Enslaved now wrapped up, Ninja Theory's Tameem Antoniades answered a few questions from VG247's readers. One asked about the possible direction a sequel to the team's previous game, Heavenly Sword, could take. (Spoiler alert!) The death of the first game's heroine, Nariko, obviously poses a challenge.

                    According to Antoniades, one idea had players discovering Nariko "trapped in Hell by the spirit of the sword." Coming to her rescue would be Kai, playable in the real world and somehow able to "communicate with Nariko and try and help rescue her soul." Fascinatingly, the potential sequel would have played with the movement of time -- one day in Hell represents a year on Earth -- and as such, Kai would transform from "teenage girl to old woman" throughout the course of the game.

                    The Voices of a Distant Star approach to the game's storytelling could have made for an interesting, thought-provoking journey. (Certainly more so than EA's Dante's Inferno.) However, it's unlikely this concept will ever come to fruition. Last we heard, Ninja Theory is no longer involved with the series.

                      What a shame. That idea sounds awesome.

                      Well maybe they could still patch trophies into the first one?

                            You have to at least let it be a full year before you can expect that, probably next year between Aug-Oct. I mean award season hasn't even passed yet.

                              They added Jordans to the avatar marketplace. I so want a pair of XIII's.

                                I got a few X-Box controllers that I'm gonna try and disassemble and repair instead of footing $15 for a new one. Sticky left triggers FTL. I'm tryna get my HALO/KotOR/Jade Empire/Fable/Splinter Cell on. Old X-Box FTW.

                                Edit: lol. I made one of them worse. I'll fix it another time, I'm just gonna eat the $15 and buy a new one from GameStop.
