    aww back to the sucky overpriced titles. I’ll never understand paid updates for titles that just came out (Draft)

  • MACPH1ST0

    Why is Watchmen Part 2 1200 points when you can get both Parts 1 and 2 AND on disc for only $19.99 at Amazon? And why is this just becoming available for download now when the disc version with both parts has been available since July 21? http://bit.ly/udQDj

    Invincible Tiger is also available this week for 1200MSP.

    “aww back to the sucky overpriced titles.”

    This from someone who bought Onechanambra.

    Where the hell is bubble bobble ? i’m sick of these over priced arcade games. Games on demand is a total joke, and hopefully dreadful sales may ensure at least a 50% price drop.

  • Exu

    Hooray, Invincible Tiger as well! Three bad games!

    I actually picked up the Watchmen retail disc for $14 this weekend at Gamestop…edge and a coupon knocked it down from $17.99. I didn’t think the first one was worth whatever crazy price they charged, and definitely don’t think the second one is worth 1200! Both games for $15-$20 is much more reasonable, and it’s on disc, which I always prefer.
    Now, Epic needs to get on the ball and put Shadow Complex on a retail disc so some of my friends who live in rural areas (off the grid) can experience the greatness!

  • KMetalmind

    Bubble Bobble FTW!! It should be already here ó_o

  • El Cid

    I was really hoping for Serious Sam HD.

  • x8Sharrock3x

    bubble bobble…..yeahhhh not!!

    @Jonah Falcon
    How do you know he bought it?. Maybe rented or played at friends house?. Anyway you can probably pick up Onechanbara in bargain bins or secondhand for less than the cost of Watchmen Part 2.

    Way overpriced IMO. But I don’t need to buy it so what do I care.

  • rogXue

    jonah, didn’t buy it. Gamefly is a godsend. That horrible POS went back soon after the hr I gave it a try. I even deleted it from my gamercard so I’m surprised it showed. Avoid that game at all costs…

  • A n D e R Soft

    watchmen part 2 at 1200 points?
    it doesn’t worth that money at all.

    if you want that game, go and buy the retail disc bundled with part 1 for the price of part 2.

    PEGGLE NIGHTS!!!!!!!

    who ordered the PS3 slim? Nice specs. smaller, cheaper, blue ray sounds nice and it makes less noise when disc is in no need for copying your game to the system (Drive sound you know) ect..

    I must say i have my xbox 360 from 2005. and i am proud of it but the points are rising if microsoft thinks we are miljonairs… I don’t have the pay check that major nelson has..

    And hardware wise i think microsoft/xbox developers can bring a system as small as the PS3 slim is.. or are they just looking in ripping us off..

    Whata price(s)/Points its like microsoft is saying hey bitch buy or leave?

    Can you take it like a men?

  • LordBBH

    Hey Microsoft, just because Summer of Arcade is over doesn’t mean you HAVE to immediately start unloading crap.

    And now that Summer of Arcade is over how about letting the rest of the world play Bubble Bobble Neo now? That sure would be nice.

  • Ai Kago

    Lol, yeah, back to all the junk. Summer of Arcade was pretty awesome, I suppose it hard to follow it up now :P

  • kuroi albatross

    Where. the. hell. is. Bubble. Bobble. ?
    The game is ready, it was released in Japan with all the other languages included, so WHY are you denying it to us?

  • LapsonHK

    No mention about region, so are they available worldwide?
