With almost half of their team gone, it seems like Idol Minds is doomed to go the way of the dinosaur at this point. A real shame.
Sharing the sentiments of many here, if they had made a reasonably-priced Coolboarders for PSN (I'd say about $20) with online multiplayer, I know I would have given them money again. PAIN was fun for a while - and still is for parties - but it just gets way too old when playing solo, and way too quick. #idolminds

I never made the connection between this Idol Minds was the same studio that made Coolboarders since it's been so long since they touched that series. #idolminds

Much like how I never made the connection that they were the ones that made Coolboarders. If whoever is running Idol Minds was wise, they would have reminded us of this. Maybe they could have used that PAIN DLC income to fund that reminder. #idolminds

Sad to see this company getting hit with lay-offs, though that is the domino effect for ya. #idolminds

It would probably helped if they released a bundle pack (character/map) and made the standard game cheaper. I only got it when it was on summer sale on PSN way back and I did buy one expansion for it but overall I thought HvB was more appealing in the long run.
I do wonder about the online server though since Calling all Cars server will be shut down beginning of next year. #idolminds

Or watch him break down crying in the mud when it's raining. While I'm Looming over him like a serial killer from Sin City... or Watchmen.
How odd.

It also expresses quite wonderfully precisely how I feel whenever someone comes within 50 feet of me wearing Axe Body Any-friggin-thing.
So perhaps not so odd.

It's a free character download. They aren't forcing you to download it.
A free, optional download is one thing, but ads in a game like Wipeout, or a paid service like XBL is what we should really be worried about.

It's not like the character is completely ridiculous and make of chocolate or something.

Dont try and sugar coat it. PSN is always adding new things ad lite edition.

Wipeout removed the ads. XBL did not, but continue to add them.

I haven't been this smitten since Brad Pitt stared longingly into the camera while doing opium in China in Legends of the Fall.

Of course, given the choice, I'd take Stetson or Old Spice over Axe any day. Or better yet, sandalwood oil. Diluted, it makes an incredible cologne. It's just hard to find around here, since it's usually sold in new age shops, and this is a heavily Christianized area. :(

I think you might want to get a nice antiperspirant for your BO problem. Or maybe shower in the morning.
