Bit of a lame gaming day for me.

I started A Boy and His Blob and couldn't figure out what was going on at all.  So then I figured I'd try Crackdown -- same thing -- though the game looked really good for it's age.  I want to figure it out.

Then crazily, given my temporary loss of comprehension skills I thought it would be a good idea to play Killer 7.  Yeah.  Wow.  So then I grabbed Cubivore, but realised finally that I was digging a deeper hole and put down the controller for the day.

I think I've got some kind of health issue starting -- like flu symptoms -- so hopefully that is the cause and not the early onset of some age-related abnormality.

How did I ever doubt this game, what is wrong with me. Almost a week away!!!!!

Looks hot. I still worry about the auto aim though.

Updating now, new Epic Mickey screens in the thread

Updates done.

Oh I fucking like the Castlevania art. They all look like characters that BELONG in a CV game. Also, nice Goldeneye trailer. Obviously the 8-player online is more important to me than the split-screen action that I'll probably only use at the holidays. I hope the online play is smooth, and Activision sets up their own servers like EA does. No friend code bullshit please.

Damn you and everyone like you!

Really hate that CV art, it's like an Activision version of the awesome designs found in most recent(ish) 2D games. They've got none of the charm, just all realism and grit or whatever, nothing really unique about them.

Hopefully they have some charm in their animations at least...

 I get what you mean after seeing that art. CV has this gentlemanly costumes and ruffles like Edgeworth in phoenix wright and ornate designs of things like candle holders and doors etc. 

I still like the designs in LOS, but yeah I see what you mean, you could put them in other games like Dante's Inferno and maybe not know the difference so much.
