I’ll be keeping an eye out for a used copy of Ikaruga at TV-Spelsbörsen. It’s such a niched game that many will probably buy it, don’t like it and sell it again.
Also, it’s made by a bunch of crazy Japanese.
The new iPod looks darn sleek.
Via Penny Arcade I got wind of the next Phantasy Star Online game, and it’s going to be a collectible card game! To quote Tycho: “I don’t know if they could possibly have made a game that is more attractive to me.”
At the moment I’m playing Etherlords in Duel mode, which is major fun. It’s also a card game, where you use cards to summon creatures, cast enchantments and whoop your opponents using said creatures. There are several nice strategies available — my favorite deck is called “Clone Lord” and is based on cloning the creatures of the opponent and using them against him.
I like collectible card games. Nice, turn-based strategy. Etherlords 2 sounds promising.
