According to the creator's comments, that was intentional. See my complaints earlier in this thread about the sound design.

Just dropping this here. Might be Heavy Rain spoilers in the last section of the video, so be warned. WDqg1-21IiQ#t=26s

Ludonarrative Harmony? Tales from an Emergent Earth? The Games Industrial Complex?

I've used the XBDC+ drivers on a 32-bit Vista to get my 360 DDR pad to play nicely with Stepmania. (The default 360 drivers mapped the arrows to hats, which made it impossible to do steps involving more than one arrow at a time. ) The install process for 64-bit systems seems to involve an additional step of disabling Microsoft's enforcement of valid driver signatures, so use at your own risk.

I think you only need to sign up if you want to save your scores/cheevos, or chat with puerile adolescents while playing the game.

I liked the voice acting. It glitters like fire!

I respectfully disagree. The choice points were mostly all well indicated, it didn't take much time to replay the game and find them, and they all enhanced the theme in quite different ways. If what you wanted was to find out what happened to Stanley and his workplace, yeah, the endings are disappointing. But telling that story isn't the point of the game. Instead, it examines the notion of Kind of armchair psych, and it's been done before (hell, it's been done by me, although nowhere near as well done), but it's all well written and acted that I enjoyed the time I spent on it. I take some issue with its seeming assertion that is inherently uninteresting, but I found the game's argument to be well told.

Now that's not entirely fair, as it's a password you wouldn't normally enter anyway, and caused the *original NES Metroid* to crash.

Finished playing Little King's Story last week. Oh man. Love the overall aesthetics of this game. It's so completely utterly charming in everything it does, especially the FMV sequences: bxhVH_5vZzM It's a mashup between a light action-strategy game like Pikmin and a city-building game. You go out on expeditions to fill your kingdom's treasury, expand your territory by defeating bosses and rival kings, and build your kingdom up to recruit new citizens and gain the ability to train new soldier types. While it might look "kiddy," the boss battles are no joke. If you're not careful, you can lose civilians in battle. Sometimes they wash up safe and sound on the beach. And sometimes they die for good, prompting their friends in town to dress in black for a day and hold a funeral that night. The pathfinding is irritating until you get the "evade" formation (which lets your troops follow you single-file), and it can get a bit tedious if you're a completionist or feel so bad for your men that you want to avoid all casualties, but there's really no reason not to play it.

Spoken lines. The Ben & Dan games don't have voice acting!

Can't sleep. Clown will eat me.

+ = ???

Or just read the first draft script from Jordan Mechner.

Haven't played it, but from spoilers I've read, did you make sure to

It's now called Iron Brigade, which oddly enough makes it sound more like a generic European war-themed board game.

Just got the ending for Rez HD ( ). Now I'm around 1,116th place on the worldwide leaderboards for Direct Assault (beating the game in a single sitting).

Is the game world in Insanely Twisted Shadow Planet at least any better than Shadow Complex's awful layout? I seem to recall the latter game had minimal shortcuts between areas, most of which could only be accessed in the endgame, making it an absolute chore to backtrack and explore the map for the remaining items.
