Hey, did you know that Blast Works released this week? Yeah, it's all up on retail shelves right now, waiting for you to pick it up and buy it. Our copy is out there right now, cold and alone, awaiting our loving embrace. But, what about you?

Nabbing Blast Works yourself? Picking up something else? What will you be playing this weekend?

Renting first. I should get it in the mail tomorrow. If I like, I'll buy. I'm looking forward to trying it out, and sharing some content. Let's hope a lot of people pick it up (unless it sucks, but the free version was fun enough).

Okami. It's the perfect summer vacation game, it just keeps going and going and going, though it rarely gets repetitive, and i wish i could figure out where the other mermaid springs are so i can start teleporting, and stop those trans-Nippon runs

Some Radiant Dawn, too. Part IV second playthrough, this time with a third-tier Jill, Mia, and Nephenee to help out.

Umm nothing, I should try my hand at Okami and finish it but meh... there is nothing of great interest expect MGS4 but I didn't buy a ps3 =( ...

as for blast works, it's funny when i watch the game in motion i have no clue which fire is enemy fire... at least the damage system isn't like some classic shooters where 1 shot and ur dead thing

I turned on TUMIKI Fighters right before I came to check the news here, so *yes*, in every way. Also hoping to be able to pick up a copy of Wii Fit. I'm also thinking about trying out the Wii Shop (only downloaded free things so far) channel, because it's always nice to not have to fumble with disks.

I bought Blast Works yesterday. It is a lot of fun, so is the co-op. Downloading stuff from the blast works website is really cool. So I will playing that and brawl this weekend.
