    1200 seems fair enough for Gyromancer, although I have no doubt people will still complain. Looking forward to it a lot!

    Gyromancer looks really fun!!

  • Monhegan

    Is there much of a difference between Gyromancer and Puzzle Quest? I played Puzzle Quest and loved it, but if Gyromancer is more of the same I’ll pass…

  • GS HaXoR

    Gotta check out Gyromancer :D

  • Shadow0810

    @Monhegan It’s made by Popcap and Squeenix ’nuff said. Also though it uses bejeweled twist

  • CaptainKicker

    Diner Dash.. Yes, please.

  • monosocratic

    I was hoping that Gyromancer would come in at 800MS, but I understand. This will have to push it back to an early 2010 bender purchase instead of the instant gaming crack that I hoped it would be.

  • Sly Jon

    Where’s Perfect Dark XBLA?

  • ibelievein93x

    I want Plants Vs Zombies and Perfect Dark!

  • TaygetaVendetta

    Really looking forward to Gyromancer. What happened to Serious Sam HD, though? I thought that was supposed to be out in October.

  • hotwheelsdavid

    Gyromancer looks cool . Very much like puzzle quest by the looks of it

  • SpaceNinjaDino

    Finally Diner Dash! And what is this? Co-op mode? I didn’t notice any co-op mode in the DS version. This will make things very fun and worth another platform purchase. I’ll have to purchase it Wednesday.

  • MACPH1ST0

    Gyromancer looks interesting, especially since Square Enix is involved, but it also looks too much like a Puzzle Quest ripoff. I’ll probably wait for a price drop first before I get it.

  • Chitwood7412

    What about Call of Duty Classic or Perfect Dark? Oh well, I will have to try Gyromancer.

  • Sneeches

    gyromancer looks awesome, will be checking this out for sure.

  • BillyMagnumFOD

    wheres Peggle Nights? Peggle AND Peggle nights are coming to PSN this week and we get these “games”?

  • Jonah Falcon

    Plants Vs. Zombies will be coming to XBLA sometime in early 2010.

  • Jonah Falcon

    Peggle Nights is coming out on Wed. It’s not listed here because it’s an expansion. It’s only 400 MSP.

  • mchiefvs360

    I dunnno, might get the demos. Still have to purchase Marathon: Durandal.

  • BillyMagnumFOD

    @Jonah Falcon- Thanks for that! I feel better lol

  • VEGEMITE 98

    @jonah, Thanks for that.

  • MACPH1ST0

  • Spybreaker

    Oh man this Wednesday is going to rock.

  • VEGEMITE 98

    I downloaded the Peggle nights DLC but I can’t play it, whats up with that?

  • VEGEMITE 98

    @Major, I just bought Hyromancer for 1200mp and noticed that the information text says the FULL VERSION allows you to play ALL stages, but there is a MAP PACK there already for 240mp, so did I purchase the FULL VERSION or did I get scammed
