GameTunnel writes: "I was always a fan of the Wallace and Gromit show when I was a wee lad (and I still am), so I had high hopes for WaGGA, from Telltale Games. What I got was different than I was expecting and/or hoping for, but not to shabby, regardless.
The plot sounds like it's an episode from the show: Wallace is struggling to make ends meet, but is hopeful thanks to his new honey-making business' commission to make 50 gallons of honey in one day for a party. His bees aren't producing, though, and (through a series of very British events) he ends up having to find the necessary ingredients for a super growth formula that will bulk up his newly planted flowers to "feed" to his bees. It's slightly absurd."
GamerZines: Telltale Games' Dan Connors has revealed that his company makes nearly 40% of its revenue from the various console platforms, proving that it's worth porting the likes of Sam & Max and Monkey Island to the PS3, 360 and Wii.
"We generally launch with one console partner during the run of the season, and usually does about 40 per cent of the revenue," Explained the CEO in a recent interview.
I love Sam and Max. I got the PC version but I caved in and also bought the PS3 version.
Following Sony's announcements of the April Foolishness Sale and PSP Favourites promotion earlier this week, Microsoft has today revealed a cost-cutting activity of their own. From today, eight top titles held on the Xbox 360's Xbox LIVE Arcade are available for half-price, and two further titles are set to be greatly reduced. These sale prices are limited however, available for only seven days.
... and nothing on that list really interests me. Bit of a disappointment.
When the hell are they finally gonna discount TrialsHD!?
Well, I'm partly glad they actually didn't lessen the prices of XBLA games I've been wanting for a while because I didn't take my 360 away with me over this week.
...it's not "inventory", if it's only available as a digital download. Just sayin'....
