I hope so for your sake too because all of this region locking/certain regions not getting certain games business sucks ass. If I was finished with Catherine right now and could throw it across the pond to let you play it, I totally would.

I really feel for how Brits get the shaft in the movie and video game release department. At least you have it better than Aussies with their censorship laws.

[Reznor]

Tim needs to eat more brain food.

[King wiL]

So guess what? Catherine got a PAL release confirmed. And Australia got an M rating for games established. Sir Shadowdancer, your previous comment got heard apparently.

Also, on the topic of what the thread is for, I just listened to WILcast! It was strange. But fond memories of talking in a mic to Zombies Ate My neighbors sitting in a snes. (I figured if I pretended to talk to that, i'd stay facing the mic. Anyway, I have an interesting topic for you guys on the podcast. Where do I send my suggestion to?

[shadowdancer21b]

That's great!

[Zeiram]

A theory that I read regarding the Spider-Man trailer is that they are using horror genre framings to create a tie between Parker's transformation and the villain's. Still, it's just a trailer, which could mean jack compared to the actual movie.

[Reznor]

Evil.

[shadowdancer21b]

And it's hot, too!

Dave, did you get round to playing VVVVVV yet? I bought it on steam the day it came out after seeing the Giant Bomb quick look on it way back, it's awesome. Proper old school platforming with named screens ala the spectrum Monty games or Jet Set Willy. Yes I know most of you probably never even heard of the spectrum never mind these classics. Anyhow, VVVVVV is awesome. It's also hard as hell. And the soundtrack's great. And the visuals are badass, it looks like a commodore 64 game. Also I just found out a couple of the songs from the soundtrack (which is titled PPPPPP. Lol) have been added to Rock Band Network i'm gonna replay VVVVVV when I get home

Also, in case you didn't know, if you got the Humble Indie Bundle before yesterday, or donate more than $5 to buy it after today, you get an extra 5 games including the fantastic Machinarium. Just go to the site and you'll be able to get your extra games there apparently.

[Reznor]

Hah hah, Rory totally choked on his usual ending.

[King wiL]

Nice english accents guys. They were so terrible I couldn't stop laughing though the impressions of me were pretty funny.

[Wood]

Just listened to the last podcast. Now the point of you guys laughing when you saw the words "Spider-Men" makes perfect sense now. Can't wait to hear your thoughts on MAGStock in podcast form!

They are individually Spiderman, they are collectively Spiderman. Take THAT Steve!
