Look for Little Big Contra in the cool pages in LBP.

Flower is decent but I'm not sure what all the hype is about. It is a very simple game and I don't mean pick up and play simple but everything in pretty simple in design. You start out as one petal and move it (via the wind) to other flowers. More land is revealed as you get all or most of the flower petals to follow you. I really hate the invisible boarders (Or should I say WIND borders).
lol, thanks, i guessed that... HOW do i throw the grende? i've gotten good at standing around with it in my hands.
didn't get to play much, so still stuck on that second level.
Let's not turn this thread into a the-world-hates-nintendo conspiracy theory.
I personally will be trying out Flower asap, but that probably won't be until after my Mario Power Tennis Wiimake review. Come on Nintendo.. send it NOW! =P
Sony is doing SO MUCH right with PSN games it amazes me. I think it's a really good example of the whole quality-over-quantity approach. For me, just the downloadable games are worth the cost of admission on the system, which I know seems a little crazy. I really need to "finish" Flow, as I don't think I've done all the forms yet and I know I haven't bought the expansion.
I have a question for the masses. Do you think Flower would be as successful without the amazing visuals? Don't get me wrong, that's not an "amazing visuals can't happen on the Wii" comment. I'm just talking in general.
I think it's a perfect example if someone needed firepower for a "graphics do matter" argument.
I'm really interested in this game, but I don't think anyone that I know would be into it. Is this game still worth it if you'll be playing mostly by yourself?
I'll keep an eye out on a deal for V. If I remember correctly, I got DQ IV for $20 off of Amazon.
FINAL FANTASY IV: The After Years
Platform: Wii
Rating: Everyone
Content descriptors: Alcohol Reference, Mild Fantasy Violence
Rating summary: This is a 2D role-playing game in which players embark on an adventure involving magical crystals and a mysterious kingdom. Players traverse across a field map or through dungeons and can enter into turn-based battles along the way. Players use a menu screen to select attacks or magic spells against tiny enemies (e.g., leopards, birds, knights, fish monsters, etc.) that blink and disappear when defeated. An item called "Bacchus Wine" is occasionally used to defeat enemies in battle.
Final Fantasy IV: The After Years features Cecil, Rosa, and the entire cast of Final Fantasy IV years in the future. The story begins with their son Ceodore and introduces new characters like a brigade of ninjas under the command of Edge who is now the King of Eblan.
Would you say that there just isn't much of a demand for FPS games on the DS?
Is this the best they could do? I mean, a red console? Whooopee. You'd think they could at least put some cool art on it.Yeah MS consoles are lame with special editions, now the PS3 RE5 and Yakuza 3 PS3 are sexy. Hell the Japanese RE5 PS3 bundle gives you two controllers so you will be ready for co-op, in Japan sometimes 360 bundles with games DON'T EVEN COME WITH A HARD DRIVE!
These consoles should be pretty stable, actually. They're likely Jaspers so they should be pretty cool running. Only took MS four years to get it right.

And never say that Sony owns any IP. Remember, Crash Bandicoot was a Sony IP too...
Would be funny if we'd see the (proper) revival of Commander Keen, eh?
