Okay, so my feed links were very muffed up.

All good now.  

Not a bad party last night…except this morning my voice was practically gone.

• Futurelooks has listed the Top 10 Best Fighting Games of All Time. Just as well that they included Samurai Shodown - you’d never hear the end of it from me if it wasn’t included. It’s actually inspiring me to dig out the old MAME emulator…
• Some figures on Mass Effect. I do believe I’ll be pre-ordering this today.
• Another piece of EvAv news: looks like Sony may be wanting to join the crowd of failing consoles, according to a Belgian games retailer. 091107: The site that posted the info took it back. Yay for rumour mill.
• God of War III is going to be PS3 exclusive. After losing Ace Combat, you’d hope that they’d keep this big-ticket item. Personally, I never did get into it because it just felt like DMC without the guns…I think I may need to spend a weekend at Chop’s to prove myself wrong.
• Eurogamer has some first impressions on the Assassin’s Creed final release. One thing that confuses me even to this day is the concept of "gentlemen brawling" - the developers for The Chronicles of Riddick stated that they used a system of enemies engaging one after another whenever the player had to engage in hand-to-hand combat. Will they have the same thing for Assassin’s Creed, or will it be like the later Prince of Persia titles where they strike simultaneously (albeit in slow motion)?
• There’s a game coming out called Pain where you fling bodies into objects. Reminds me of Dismount but with great force added.
• Some sobering news: Atari reported a $12m Q1 loss. According to 1UP, this follows "a $69.7 million dollar deficit" after it submitted its annual reports when threated with a NASDAQ de-listing notice. With games like The Witcher, Tomb Raider, Pro Evo Soccer, Ace Combat, Silent Hill, Clive Barker’s Jericho, Kane & Lynch etc. it’s kind of hard to believe.
• YouGamers has posted an article about how much video RAM you really need. Depends how big a penis you’d want, I suppose.
