The developers say the style of this game is “trail and death.”

It really reminds me of Knytt Stories, another indie game (though not available on the Xbox) where you also die a lot trying to avoid enemies (there are no weapons).

Topics of interest (stuff we did talk about):

New Star Trek Trailer
Haunted Mansion Bobble-head catastrophe

Music:
Kelly bought The Crayons CD, The Haunted Mansion CD from Disney (that is hard to get, she had to go to Disney to get it), Four Finger Music: The Bluegrass Tribute to th eMusic Made Famous by The Simpsons, and The Willy Wonka soundtrack. She also got Punk Goes Crunk, where punk artists do rap songs.

Theatre:
We saw a playing of The Pillowman, starring Josh Geoghagan! It was excellent!

Games:
Hotel Dusk: A great game set in the very early 80′s with an awesome detective-sounding soundtrack, about an ex-detective searching for his lost partner, whom he himself shot. Is that ex-partner dead? What about a hotel? Does the detective solve the mystery? Is it happy-ever-after at the end? FIND OUT! Play it, fools. (Or ask me, I will tell you everything :P)

NXE (New Xbox Experience)

Movies:
Shock Treatment: It blows, but has it’s moments. The song “Shock Treatment” ruleszorz.

Zach’s Disappointment of the week:
Ubuntu:
Why? Ever since the update to version 8.10, his system has a few random sound glitches. He also experiences CD-ejecting failure on his CD/DVD drive, which sometimes results in the ripping of the same CD for hours at a time.

• Cooking (soon to be a separate site?):
  Shortbread
  Plums for recipe
• Jacob’s Pin Trading: He got a random muppets pin pack at Disney, and traded a Ralph (he got a pack of two Ralphs).
• Loldogs, similar to icanhascheesburger but for dogs. So funny! Also, check out totallylookslike.com for a good time. OH! Also check out the Fail Blog
• Jacob reviews an HTC app (it’s related to battery life).

Kelly’s book corner:
Bonk (By Mary Roach, author of Stiff)
Bell at Sealey Head

Also, Kris’s title may be changed to one of the following:

• The Phantom Producer
• Podcast Sugardaddy
• Ghost in the Machine

, all of which are sweet.

• Song of the Week: Cooler Than Me by The Crayons

ALSO: DON’T FORGET TO VOTE IN THE POLL –>

The best/funniest part is when Peppy says “Do a barrel roll” and “try a summer salt” in an echo-y voice, a la obi-wan.

Sumio Mondo is a “searcher” who makes a living looking for people’s lost things. He arrives on the resort island of Lospas and takes a room at the F.S.R. hotel after being tasked with detecting and defusing a time bomb, planted on a plane which is soon to leave the island’s only airport.

Next morning, however, Sumio awakens in his hotel room and discovers that something strange has happened. He has not even headed to the airport yet and the airplane explosion and crash have not happened yet, either. Sumio attempts to head to the airport to prevent the explosion. Again, however, other people who need his help appear, distracting him long enough to lead to a repeat of the previous days explosion, and Sumio once again awakens in his hotel room before any of the days events have taken place. As the same fateful day repeats itself over and over, Sumio finds his hotel room becomes more and more warped and twisted, reflecting the fact that he is slowly losing his mind from the repetition. Can he solve the islanders problems and prevent the explosion before he goes totally insane?

What’s more, a European release is scheduled for November. Note: European games are in English! Woo!
