I Don’t Think This Is How You’re Supposed To Play Animal Crossing
I’ve made no secret of the fact that I’m an Animal Crossing addict. The game continues to be a smash hit in Japan. Players clock into their villages every day to gather and sell items, expand and develop, and, in some cases, UTTERLY TERRIFY other unsuspecting players.
Save Me From Assassin’s Creed III’s Creepy Nightmare-Children
The Assassin’s Creed series has always been full of weird ambient dialogue. People on the street mutter the same few lines, and the mix never sounds quite right. Most of us have less-than-fond memories of the “Mah-ney mah-ney mah-ney!!” guy from earlier games in the series, and those accursed bums who bump and bug us as we try to look cool and flit about the streets.

PopStar Guitar Adds More Early Teen Favourites
As much as I like to make fun of XS Games’ PopStar Guitar for even existing, I can’t shake the feeling that if I were 20 years younger or so I would really get a kick out of their track listing. They’ve just revealed five new original master recordings for the game, two from Fall Out Boy, one from Paramore, and two from the All-American Rejects, joining a lineup packed with tunes from The Jonas Brothers, Hannah “Stop Calling Me That” Montana, Maroon 5, and Three Doors Down. The track list reads like an iTunes shopping list for creepy internet men who want to pretend they’re 14-year-old girls on MySpace.
