Quote:Skip Ltd's self-proclaimed "Alternative RPG", Giftpia netted a Gold Award with an overall score of 35 (8,9,9,9). The reviewers said that though initial impressions showed the game was for children, it offered nice puzzle elements, great characters and a wonderful score. It's similar to Animal Crossing since players can dig, collect, and fish. In this unique RPG there are no experience points, and the theme is to "grow up".
Side Note: Fire Emblem: Rekka no Ken gets a 34 (9,9,8,8) and and the reviewers praised the very friendly tutorial system. It stays true to the series and features great characters and scenarios.
Quote:Capcom cans 18
Reuters revealed today that Capcom has cancelled 18 titles. According to the press agency, Capcom lost a lot of money during the 2002-2003 fiscal year due to the poor sales of games like Resident Evil 0, Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter, P.N.03, Chaos Legion, and Clock Tower.
... What's wrong with you people?
Anyway, as a result, the company has put a stop to titles they feel have very little financial potential. There's been no word on what they are, but, certainly, if they're important games that have been talked about at length, their absence will be conspicuous. We'll have more soon.

Damn, eighteen games?? Let's try to guess which ones they'll be.
Maybe all of Carl Lewis's Olympic Gold's should be taken away...just like Ben Johnson's? My oh my how corrupt the Olympics were...(and still are, in some cases)
