GOS: "AAA games like Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception, Rage and Gears of War 3 dominated PAX Prime 2011. However, there is one casual game on the horizon that deserves its time in the spotlight. It’s called Squid, and even though the title of this article is an exaggeration on my part the fun factor of Squids isn’t.
Squids is a casual game created by The Game Bakers, a new development studio comprised of former Ubisoft employees and based in Paris and Montpellier, France."
"The Game Bakers revealed to us what prompted the voyage of their critically-acclaimed Squids property to Nintendo platforms. Turns out, bunking with Nintendo helped spark some new ideas in the process."

"Viable internet connections have eluded Cameron and Zachary like the annoying rabbit from Super Mario 64, but that hasn’t stopped Stephen and Bryan from coming out of the woodwork to carry on without them. World of Warcraft is the center of attention this week as they remember dangerous adventures and deadly error messages from Azeroth, but Gothic 3 gets a turn in the RPG limelight as well. If you count The Legend of Zelda as an RPG, than so does it, but it’s not so it doesn’t. But Bryan doesn’t have to putter around with NES games now that his computer has been rebuilt into a colossal frame-rate-increasing monstrosity, and he’s proves this with a smattering of technically radical games including Sonic Generations. Meanwhile, Stephen attends Dizzy’s birthday party in a weed-infested Animal Crossing: Wild World town. He gave Dizzy a fruit beetle. Speaking of weeds, Steam sales have been popping up like them for days, and so of course obligatory joke about suffering wallets."
