CABAL Online's secrets are out
CABAL Online is one of those free-to-play titles that's like a shy whale, swimming under the surface of our attention while growing bigger every day. And before you know it, Pinocchio and Jonah are in deep, deep trouble. Tortured metaphors aside, it's good to hear that CABAL continues to expand. Games-Masters.com just released a massive update for the game entitled "Secrets of Radiant Hall." The centerpiece of the update is the titular Radiant Hall, a new 7-man, level 130+ raid to uncover the secrets and best the challenges of the Phantasmal clan. Their secret? Fanta! (OK, not really -- but we hear there's a dragon involved.) The update brings a host of new and improved features to CABAL as well, including a daily quest system, new character customization options, a better UI, a party search system and the Catacomb Frost solo dungeon. Catacomb Frost is interesting in that level 110+ players have a scant 25 minutes to save a girl; fortunately, there are three difficulty levels depending on how daring you feel that day. You can check out the full update over at CABAL Online's site.
PQ2 coming to US
Game Stooge has up a press release from D3Publisher of America stating that PQ2: Practical Intelligence Quotient is coming to the US. For those not familiar with the series, it has you use an avatar to get out of block stacking mazes as quickly as possible and your intelligence is graded on how well you did. Given that, I'm sorta pissed at my college and pre-college education, because not once did I get a course on block stacking and that's why I'm such a dummy now. To help educate myself, I may have to pick up PQ2: Practical Intelligence Quotient when it arrives in non-Japanese form in the US. PQ2 will have more than 250 puzzles and will support Infrastructure mode so you can beat you friends in a video game and use that hollow victory to point out how stupid they are and by proxy how much of an idiot you are for hanging out with them. The game is a PSP exclusive, which obviously means PSP owners will be the smartest of all console owners after the game comes out. [ Thanks Jonah! ]
