Not being a musician, every time I hear it I think "Castlevania: Rondo of Blood"

I'm picking up okami.
Never owned a ps2, and I think it will be even better on Wii anyway.

Good timing too, as I just finished all events and SSE on brawl and GH3 is getting a little stale.

@Lstormy10:
It's not even a proper expansion pack. There's been a few "stuff" packs. They are basically add-ons with objects and furniture based on a theme, in this case kitchen and bathrooms.
They release them in between proper expansions just to makes sure the cash cow is fully milked.

Rumour is there is an Ikea themed one on the way. (I kid you not)

Oh and off that list I'm interested in Okami but I need to gets me a Wii first. :P

Karlott — Mon, 14 Apr 2008 03:24:08 MDT

Pfft. I'll stick to my Hannah Montana Music Jam, TYVM. I'd get the delayed and now released PC version of R6 Vegas 2 but having gotten sick of wondering where it was, I got Call of Duty 4 (finally) to satisfy my FPS fix. If I got anything this week I'd probably get Assassin's Creed Director's Cut after playing the 360 version a couple days ago and thinking it was a fucking sweet game.

EmTeeZ — Mon, 14 Apr 2008 02:55:47 MDT

Could you possibly model your Week in Games to look like they used to? I mean, there was a reason for why they were a little organized, given small descriptions, and it wasn't just a list of every game made available for the week. And that WTF drop of the week could be cool, but I don't think it should completely take over the section.

I've just missed the simplicity of a post with the four games anyone may be interested, with embedded links so I can even check them out if I want.

I'm still waiting on Arcana Heart. I'd say I'll be picking up Rondo of Swords this week, but with the way release dates are in Canada, chances are I won't be. (Though to be honest, the last type of game I need right now is an SRPG on DS.) Also kinda tempted to pick up Lair, now that there's a $30 price drop. Has it been patched yet?

I want Okami the most out of that list.
However, I just got a psp last week so Im in the mood to buy more games for it.
So I might push Okami to the side for a few more weeks.
Until after Mario Kart hits and I get my fill from that.
Then Ill dive in

"Stuff" Pack 7 (SP7), as is the DEV name of Sims 2 Kitchen & Bath Design; its basically just an update of the showers, tubs, refrigerators, sinks, and even some new hair styles and apparel. New names of the same old stuff like the Garbage Ninja which is just a black trash compacter. Not really worth buying it unless you cannot go without these new designs and updates of the same old crap.

bangbangblah — Sun, 13 Apr 2008 23:48:41 MDT

@bornonce: Yeah, I'm hooked to that game as well. Spending about as much as time on it as I do a typical RPG (if not more). It's scary. I love the RTTS mode. The only problem with baseball games is that you can often only play a season before getting sick of it, but RTTS, you can play several years in only a month's time.

But with that said, there are definitely some additions that could be made. Maybe the PS3 version is better, but on the PS2 version (which I'm playing) the AI can be a total idiot sometime (not placing a tag after getting a throw, etc.). Also, I wish it was less pass-fail. If I foul off a hit and run, it shouldn't be same points off as grounding out. But with that said, it's still a major improvement from last year. If they keep rolling with this idea, I see a ton of potential over the enxt few years.

bornonce — Sun, 13 Apr 2008 23:38:51 MDT

I never owned a PS2, so I am looking forward to GT5:P.
Currently, the only game that I am playing is MLB 08:The Show. Although the season mode is so-so, the RTTS feature is fantastic, and can keep you playing what feels like real baseball for months. Al least in this mode, it is the most realistic sports game ever released. However, I will probably get out "the Bigs" for the Wii just to make sure that the thing still works (after a couple of months of inactivity).

JimTheFly — Sun, 13 Apr 2008 23:19:12 MDT

Okami's looking nice, but I think I'd just call it a rental for now.

As for the rest, there's not really anything looking that great to me. Rondo of Swords sounds REALLY intriguing, but there's this whole lack-of-DS problem I have with that.

And even if I had a PS3, GT5:Prologue just seems like a demo with more bells and whistles. I've got the patience that I'd wait the year or so for the full version and then obsess over that for months.

Plus, I picked up Lair today with that 25% off PS3 used games coupon that GameSpot has out ... thought I'd try it after the analog control patch comes out. Plus, my gf loves dragons, so she should dig the way it looks.

I did pick up rainbow 6 vegas 2 not long ago on xbox, and I'll never play the multiplayer agin... I don't know if it's terrible, or I am, but in the course of about 7 matches I racked up 3 kills... I'll be sticking with CoD4, I think

Just a thought - while it's a bit of extra work, Owen, I know I'd love to see the game titles linked the way they were in Days Of Old (okay, two weeks ago). It's pretty handy for looking up a game you've not heard of, even without the little blurbs from the older posts.

This is just fair notice to all Wii owners who have not played or owned Okami for the PS2: If you do not buy this game, you are forever forbidden from complaining about the lack of quality and/or creativity of video games.

Yup, that's right. No more bitching about too many sequels or too many shooters or the evilness of EA.

It's time to put up or shut up. Okami is the type of game that should be cherished by gamers and be a model for future game development. People asked for it on the Wii and now Capcom is delivering it. Support this game!

Looks like I'm getting nothing this week. Lots of selection but I won't be purchasing GT5:P. As much as I try to trick myself into thinking I like racing games, I just don't.

What is a Cory, and how did it get into the house?

Okami and Rondo o' Swords sound great, but I'm getting a bit strapped for cash ($40 a week for gas is a real bitch). I think I'll just enjoy what I already have for a few more weeks.

You know that EA is producing too many The Sims 2 expansions when their lastest expansion has a title that describes the expansion with the word "Stuff."

No titles this week for me to pick up - too busy with school anyways to play another game. :(

I own and have beaten okami for ps2..... but dammit I'm thinking of picking it up for wii just as an excuse to beat it again. With 16:9 and waggle controls i dont see how you could go wrong.

Okami, I hope prologue doesn't sell well, so ridiculous to charge almost full price for a demo.

Just when I was looking for a decent RPG for my DS!

Hopefully HSM2 will be as good as the first game.

I missed out on Okami for PS2, so that is definitely on my shopping list. I'm really interested in Rondo of Swords as well, the intuitive movement/combat system has got me excited.

That about sums it up. I'll probably pick up FFXI:WotG after the collection is released and the solo expansion drops to $20.

I'd like to think Okami (Wii) will sell better than High School Musical 2. But fake-tan covered teenie bopper musical -v- stunning Japanese adventure / cultual lesson / art piece? Unfortunately, there will be a clear sales victor. Bummer.

Turok could be quite good for PC. Its controls didn't lend themselves well to consoles I found, but PC version could be quite good, especially if they've tidied the game up since console launch.

I'll check if there is a demo of Sherlock Holmes, and if it's good enough i might pick the full game.

I'd pick Okami if I had a Wii, I already got it on PS2 though and it's brilliant. I definitely recommend it to all those Zelda fans out here.

Jack Jeane looks like the Runaway type, I'm not too keen on those broken sword copies - I'm actually a bit harsh here, I'll see if there's a demo out there.

Gran Turismo Prologue? Even though it looks great, I'll pay for a game demo when my ps3 gets an upgrade that enables the toasting of bread (yea, i'm eating breakfast at my desk).
