Headcase: Mario Sunshine

Ed goes tropical in this edition of Headcase, so grab a high level SPF, because you know the red headed stepchild of the Mario franchise gets sunburned just as easily as it gets beaten.

A Devil May Cry, but fans are much more predictable.

Quite recently, a game was released with the unfortunate title of DmC: Devil May Cry. Unfortunate both because capitalize that 'm' you dumb-asses, and because it shares a title with an earlier, supposedly beloved series of games. The vocal minority, doing what the vocal minority does best, is in rage mode; fucking the internet with its hate boner in a desperate attempt to scream to anyone who will listen "HEY! THIS ISN'T WHAT WE WANT". The world, doing what it does best, gives zero shits. However, it does raise many questions about the power of brand recognition, the attachment people feel to a franchise, and the fear of change.

Headcase: Sleeping Dogs

Sure, Luchalma already reviewed it, but since he pays me in vague acknowledgment and crappy Spelunky competition, I'll post whatever the hell I want. Now sit back and watch me deconstruct that game that you almost thought about playing until you got distracted by lunch or cartoons.
