DS Fanboy presents: Game Night (it was a hit!)
Going into last night's Game Night, we really did not know what to expect. We were hoping that a few of you would be available to totally kick our ass play a game or two, but the support we received and the number of you in the chat told us a different tale. It was a tale of turmoil and self-discovery, one that led a few staffers of a minor blog to a promised land filled with dual-screen delight. Considering the whole thing went extremely well, we're going to make this a regular thing. So we ask that you all vote for next week's game and we hope to see you there again, same place and same time. What game should we play on 11/28/06? Mario Kart again! Messing you all up was SO MUCH FUN! Star Fox Command; let's fly some Arwings! Clubhouse Games; I want a nice, relaxing game. Tetris DS; falling blocks FTW! Metroid Prime Hunters; blast everything!
Heroes of Mana gets flying ship
Famitsu updated their website with some information pertaining to Heroes of Mana. Revealing the protagonist's airship, it turns out that utilizing it will become a critical aspect of the game. The aircraft will be present in battles and it is up to the player to defend it and ensure its safe escape once battle is complete. Translation isn't the best, so we do not have the name of the ship or any more information regarding its use in the game.See also: TGS 2006: Heroes of Mana trailer excites
Man goes ballistic, destroys DS Lite and game
In a move that would cause many to question his sanity, flickr user DannoHung is now without DS Lite. What could drive a man to such rage and destruction? Apparently, Elite Beat Agents will do the trick. Honestly, this man needs a straight jacket and 4 padded walls right about now. Citing his frustrations with the game as the camel that broke the straw's back (wait, that doesn't sound right, does it?), he destroyed both game and handheld console in a fit of rage and declares that he now hates Nintendo. Let us tell you something buster, Nintendo didn't make you suck at the game and hate beautiful, stylish electronics. No, clearly some horrible upbringing where the lesson of loving perfect gaming platforms and quirky, rhythm-based games is the cause for all of this. We blame the parents (and those Grand Theft Auto games) ... [Note: we've disguised the gentleman's identity for fear of retaliation against his actions.]
