DeathSpank

Shit I so agree. But only if he signs all his posts Jams.

Hmm...the demo makes it feel like ranged weapons suck (and only worth getting a few ticks off an enemy before they bare down on you), and Justice comes...from spamming X and A. James says it gets different though, so I'll definitely get it when there's money for it.

You get better crossbows.

So I've been playing this and I have to say I absolutely love it. Easily my game of the month for July. It just has an old school feel to me. It reminds me of PC games from the late 80s early 90s, probably my favorite time period for PC games. It has a charm and a feel to it that sets it apart from a lot of the other games out there.

Deathspank 2 is out.

From the ign review:

"Thongs of Virtue picks up a while after DeathSpank left off, with the hero having defeated who he thought was his arch nemesis -- only to learn there are others in the circle of evil that need be brought to justice. While this sequel does feel very much like the original and sends you on the same sorts of quests, you will be travelling to quite different locales. Gone are the mostly fantasy areas of DeathSpank. Here you'll be visiting battlefields that recall World War II, the Old West, and robot factories. You can play with a bunch of fun new weapons and battle new enemies."

The rest of the review is here.

I started playing last night, but there was an annoying ass bug that kept popping up a "leaderboard error" message every time I did ANYTHING, so I gave it a rest for the night. It was funny so far though.
