Here’s a nice thing I saw today while pre-ordering the Collector’s Edition of Resistance 2. Amazon.com is selling the SOCOM: Confrontation Bundle that comes with new, official, PS3 bluetooth headset for a little bit less than $59.99, $56.99! That doesn’t seem like that much a savings, but look at it this way. The headset alone is $49.99. From any other place, at the moment, you pay $10.00 more, and you get a whole game (that, alone, costs $39.99), but at Amazon, you’ll only be paying $7.00  more for the same game!

I picked up Castle Crashers (360) a couple week ago. It’s quite fun, though I played it alone the whole way through. Like the old TMNT, X-Men, or Simpsons game, Castle Crashers’ hordes and hordes of enemies are meant to be cut through with three other friends. I’m curious to see what it’ll be like to have four players since in other games with leveling up and adding to stats, it always sucks to have to sit and wait for the others to finish allocating skill points. On the other hand, the system is pretty simple in CC, with only four attributes to level up: strength, magic, defense, and agility.

On my playthrough, I put all my points into agility. Probably not the smartest idea, since in the later sections, my defense was so low that I could only take three or four hits, tops. Still, I think that maxing out just one thing can be a lot more fun too. My guy could shoot arrows so fast, I could knock an enemy back and then hit him with four more arrows before he hit the ground. Good times.

Anyways, yes. Need two more controllers.
