Have you heard of Guacamelee! by Drinkbox Studios? Have you played it? Do you want to play it, but don't currently own a PlayStation 3 or PlayStation Vita? Good news! Drinkbox Studios will be bringing the game, plus all of the DLC, plus even more shit to PlayStation 4, Xbox 360, Xbox One AND Wii U, with Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition. No release date is currently known, but I'd imagine a 2014 date is likely.

It's a good game, so you should play it when it does come out on your console of choice.

Odd, I was sure this was out on Steam, but I guess I was wrong. Anyway, it IS an awesome game and I'm glad it's coming to Wii U.

Former Criterion boss throws a bitchfit on Twitter when asked why he won't develop for Nintendo platforms. Apparently, he left EA to start his own company and blames both, EA and Nintendo for NFS not selling. I suppose I can sympathise, though bitching about a full priced, year old port that didn't come with all the DLC not selling just seems silly.

He's right about one thing: it's shameful that EA are making their own developers take the fall for their shitty planning and PR. But then again, anyone who's been in the industry around the time of Bullfrog already knew that. He's certaintly right to blame the publishers for fucking up more than the developers ever did, especially considering that DLC aside NFS WiiU was actually the definitive version.

For all the harping on I've done about Ninty fucking up their entire launch window, though, I'm not actually seeing where they're at fault here. Frontpage ads for new releases on WiiU's OS certaintly wouldn't go amiss, granted, but do publishers honestly expect the hardware manufacturer to do their marketing for them?

According to the article, this game came out at the same time as Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate and Lego City Undercover. If Nintendo had to promote the shit out of anything, it was those two, exclusive titles, so even then, they're kinda dumb for competing with them and expecting preferential treatment.

Namco Bandai will be shutting down their ShiftyLook site on March 20th. If you haven't finished reading anything there, you will have until September 30th, when the servers are shut down for good.

Anything that's not available directly through the website is unaffected; WayForward's Wonder Momo game is still coming.

Someone could just save all the content and archive it, then put it up for download.

In the wake of South Park: The Stick of Truth having to be censored in both Europe and Australia, series co-creator Matt Stone says that the video game medium faces a double standard. Particularly because everything in the game, he could have just aired on TV with absolutely no problem whatsoever.

It's not all bad, though. He did get a few joke opportunities out of the whole censorship deal, so he's not entirely disappointed.

Here's the full interview from The Guardian.

I'll never understand the censorship from country to country. I found out recently that the Dead Space series is banned from Germany and Japan. JAPAN!! Exceedingly violent dismemberment is no, but tentacle rape is ok.

Oh JAPAAAAAAAAAAAN

I like it when people use the word "gay" in any context other than a homosexual one - it only proves that they have the maturity of a five year old, as if their obsession with shooters didn't already do a good job of pointing that out. It's also pretty amusing that he pointed out Skyrim considering the fact that, y'know, it's set in the bloody medival era and doesn't even have muskets, let alone generic modern firearms.

But just for fun, let's play around with his logic a bit.

game - gun = gay
game + gun = -gay
game + gun + Arem = ???

We're talking about Japan here, even GTAV is ridiculously censored there. Half the things that make Trevor, well, Trevor, are blatantly edited out.

Wasn't the original Doom recently allowed for release in Germany?
