Future arc first. It's just the next chapter in the game, starting over now would be like playing the game 2/3s through and restarting.

Having the Accel skills/titles in subsequent playthroughs is also pretty awesome.

Heh, people still think The Last Guardian is ever coming out?

That's almost as bad as thinking Versus XIII is still in development!

Good for them.

McPixel creator says "pirating single developer/indie games is A-OK".

More at 11.

And in Europe?

Interesting story, bad game.

Eh.

I don't know why I thought the Vita wouldn't get fucked in the ass by piracy like the PSP did.

Kind of doesn't matter though, since it's not like there are/will be any games to pirate. The already few developers that want to make games for the Vita will probably jump ship after a full-scale piracy exploit gets released.

Banning people who swear in chat makes you wonder why they even have an optional swear filter in place, they could've just filtered them by default and then punished the people who bypass it.

Then again, it's kinda cool seeing them enforce something like this. Granted, less swearing doesn't make the majority of an MMO community any less shitty, but at least they're trying.

We’re excited to announce a line-up of nine playable games, including one unannounced game, for this year’s Penny Arcade Expo in Seattle. [...] Phantasy Star Online 2, the popular multi-player online role playing game, which launched to more than 730,000 players in less than one month in Japan, will be making its Western debut at the show.

Wonder how much progress they've made towards the localization.

Honestly, I'd play the shit out of that game even with just text translations of stuff.
