Blood covered

Don't have much from America this week, which is just fine by me, for reasons which will be revealed a bit later. Japan gets Zill O'll Zero on PS3, and Corpse Party on PSP. It's nice to see HD games being made at all over there, but when you're upstaged by a PSP port of a doujin game, you got problems. The thing I'll be getting this week is Castlevania Harmony Of Despair. By all accounts it looks like a terrible idea, but I'm hoping it'll at least have some nice music. Next week is even worse, with Suchie Pai IV Portable the only thing I have noted down. Some more interesting stuff is on the way, though, we'll just have to make out own fun in the mean time.

I also would like to apologize for the general shittyness of this blog over the past few weeks. Can't get blood from a stone, and when Japan decides to stop making games, we're sucked. I suppose I could waste hours coming up with original content, or, you know, play some video games or some shit.

Tales Of Edit: Dropped the ball some more. Welcome to Monday morning. Tales Of Phantasia Narikiri Dungeon X, a remake of a GBC (that's GameBoy "Color" for you kids, as opposed to non-color of the original GB) is also hitting this week. Not only is it a remake of an old game, it's also like the 10th port of Tales Of Phantasia in Japan. With every iteration Bamco adds a new feature, this time it's widescreen display. By the time the games 20th anniversary hits, they'll have enough new features to call it a remake. Clever.
