It looks so bad, it looks AWESOME.  I am tempted to add it to my games collection on here because of this.  Let me see if it is even on here.

how about Ninja Blade..... Whos fault is it that 360 hasn't had anotable exclusive since Gears 2?

Ignored because it isn't due out this month.  You see, being released this month is one of the few things Velvet Assassin and inFAMOUS have in common.  And this must be a strong connection also, because someone insisted they were comparable.

 

 

well they are comparable in the sence that both are exclusives and both are new games for thier respective console owners to play.

Would love to prove you wrong, but I'll just laugh at the fact you're banned lol.

But not for that comment, mind you.

Calling Velvet Assassin a "notable exclusive" on the 360, would be calling Haze a "notable exclusive" on the PS3. VA is a Southpeak release that has done nearly nothing to show itself worth the attention of anyone, except for those who are dying for stealth titles, no matter how badly executed. It is HARD to compare this to inFAMOUS, or say it belongs even in the same league, which is a first party Sony exclusive. This is Sony's answer for Crackdown (an exclusive PS3 sandlot game) that has elements of Fable in it also.

And, in this, you also have Punchout coming out for the Wii. Should we also bring this into the discussion?

 

I knew this game reminded me of Crackdown.

Wii Punchout - Sales Winner
Infamous - Critical Winner
Puzzle Kingdoms - Casual Winner
Patapon 2 - Artistic Winner
Velvet Assassin - Wet T-Shirt Contest Winner*

*cole from Infamous was disqualified when his wet shirt hit a judge and electrocuted them. Also, the Patapon couldn't fill the shirt...*

Puzzle Kingdoms hardly is a "Casual" title.  It looks likt it, but it has RPG elements, wargame elements, and a unique puzzle format.

In a wreck the mood of wimsy note, I am getting a little bit tired of everything that no one knows what to do with, that involves turns, being lumped into "casual".  Peggle is casual.  Puzzle Kingdoms is not.

 

I though that was puzzle quest...I personally never heard of Puzzle Kingdoms but it was an assumption. x.o

 

What's casual about Puzzle Quest?  It is an RPG, that uses Bejeweled as a combat engine.

Not what I was saying at all. I was thinking Puzzle Quest was the only RPG Puzzle game that was out. I didn't realize Puzzle Kingdom was something else. I don't understand the seriousness behind a bad joke in the first place. x.o

 

Puzzle Quest was done by Infinite Interactive, the division of the same company that produced Warlords, and other wargames (SSG).   Puzzle Quest was the first game they did.  They then did Galactrix.  And now, they did Puzzle Kingdoms, which deviates from the formula by giving you multiple units you command in a stack, and the sliding of tiles puzzle-style for the combat.  It moves away from Bejewelled.

Anyhow, I didn't mean to get serious about the bad joke.  I happened to get more serious about the entire "call everything that doesn't pander to the 14-28 male via gore" as casual.  And in doing that, I totall drain the life out of all attempts at bad humor in here.  So, I will say treat my rant as a side bar, and not the focus of what this thread is supposed to be.

ok...what other exclusive does the 360 have this month? When doing a month by month comparison, it doesn't matter how much the game may suck, it's just a caomparison. If you're getting real paranoid because YOU think that I'M thinking you're hyping the game up, you're wrong. I don't care if this game us getting panned so far. The only reason it's gteting compared to inFAMOUS is that it dropped on retail in the same month

Edit: it's no different than when Aaron Greenberg tried to shit on Heavenly Sword wit hHalo 3 outsold it in 2007. Not that I'm trying to take his route, but the only reason he mentioned Heavenly Sword was because it released in the same month....

Edit (again)" drunk lol
