Yep, it’s mid-December alright. The big releases are all but gone, except for one! Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam is out this week. I forgot all about this!
Ben and Ed (PC)
What is it? A game about running… in a gameshow where you are a zombie that gets decapitated and stuff.
Should you care? It looks kinda silly and fun.
Castle Chaos
What is it? It’s a same screen multiplayer game that takes cues from Rampart.
Should you care? This looks really cool. Could see myself playing this over Christmas with my in-laws.
Devilian (PC)
What is it? It’s an MMORPG, like a super old school one.
Should you care? It’s free-to-play. It’s not my thing at all, so I’m not sure I can pass judgement in any fair or reasonable way.
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (3DS)
What is it? Hurray! Look who’s here to make this week worthwhile! Mario… and Luigi!
Should you care? These games are usually super good. I think you should absolutely care.
SquareCells (PC)
What is it? It’s a minimalist, ambient puzzle game.
Should you care? I’m sure it’s good. Ambient puzzle games are usually good.
Vehicle Simulator
What is it? It’s a game that realistically simulates being on various different aeronautical vehicles.
Should you care? Unless you are an enthusiast… probably not.
Volvox (PC)
What is it? This is a puzzle game with an amazing art style.
Should you care Not much out this week, might as well check it out.
Picking anything up this week? Did we miss anything? Let us know in the comments.

Aww yis, Paper Jam.
Err… Yay?
Also out this week:
Suikoden III finally comes out in AU/NZ territories (Barring any Grinches stealing Christmas) !!!!!!
DariusBurst CS (PS4/Vita)
Guns Up! (PS4)
Lightning Returns (PC)
Among the Sleep (PS4)
Between Rogue Galaxy and Dark Cloud being released on the weekend and Suikoden III coming out today/tomorrow it’s like it’s Christmas or something.
Cheers for this
OP also missed the PS2 classics on the PS4 as well as Final Fantasy VII on PS4 too
Are we getting the PS2 classics on PS4 here? I keep checking but they’re never there >.
They’ve been there since Sunday. The 3 GTA’s, King of Monsters, TMB, Rogue Galaxy (which sounds like a fkn Star Wars game) and 2 other games I cant think of at the top of my head
Sweet. I shall again look them up. Thanks 🙂
find them?
No 🙁 it’s like the PS store never updates for me…
Under the Games tab on the left (fifth option down, under the line) – go right about 4 screens and one of the half page banners is for the PS2 games
Hey man, just want to say I finally got around to following your advice, and I found them! It’s weird, they don’t come up in search. That search has always been terrible for me. So yeah, just want to say thank you 🙂
Hey no worries! Hope you found something worth buying and playing
PS – Parappa the Rapper 2 came out a few days ago, but last time I checked it wasnt listed under the PS2 games tab. Youll need to manually search for it
And Yakuza 5 should be hitting this week as well.
Holy shit Suikoden III! The one Suikoden I have never played. KEEN.
Its happening? Like, really happening? After all this time?
FAST: Racing Neo on Wii U eshop on Friday.
yay for FZero/Wipeout style super fast racing
Well I’m glad I didn’t read that line expecting an explanation of what it is, or anything like that.
What day is it? Tea is a hot drink enjoyed in many forms by many people around the world.
