Today's news was filled with RPG reveals and lawsuit announcements, but plenty of other stories caught our attention and our browser's bandwith for a few minutes today. Click on through to check out today's daily stale bread.
8/3--Take it Ysy
Who's That Flying?! (WTF?!) coming to PSN this September
Will: As a PSP mini, this game is not quite newsworthy, but a really awesome title, nonetheless.
Dave: WTF, indeed. As a fan of stylistic shmups, I'll be watching this game. But just a little, given its mini-ness.
Wave Goodbye To Google Wave
Dave: RIP, Google Wave, our former newsroom service. You will be missed. Actually, strike that. You crashed quite often and were generally pretty awkward. Good riddance.
Batman, Phantasy Star Universe hit XBL Games on Demand
Will: Batman: Arkham Asylum and Phantasy Star Universe are on Games on Demand now. Newsworthy?
Dave: I'd say no. The latter has lost most of its online community, while Arkham is hideously overpriced at $40. Microsoft, must I direct your attention to my marketplace manifesto? No? Well tough, I'm linking to it anyway.
Dropping Game Center support for older iPods is a bad idea
Dave: Of course this news hits the day after my soon-to-be Game Center-incompatible iPod Touch comes in the mail. I'm thoroughly convinced that Apple doesn't want me to enjoy any of its hardware.
Is Chris Nolan's Mind The Scene Of The Crime? Inception/Scrooge McDuck Comparison!
Will: And now, how Inception may or may not have ripped off Scrooge McDuck.
Dave: I'm pretty sure every current critically-acclaimed movie was based on Scrooge McDuck comics. Wasn't there an episode where Scrooge made Donald Duck mute because of his dedication to creating an oil empire, like Daniel Day Lewis' character did to his son in There Will Be Blood?
