Game review: Sacrifice

TEH. BEST. GAMES. EVAR.
By Andr'e Swartley

Issue #14
Sacrifice
Developer: Shiny Entertainment
Publisher: Interplay
Platform: PC
Rating: M for Mature

Several days ago, gamers all over the world cried out in anguish at the news that the Playstation Portable release of Shiny Entertainment's classic platformer Earthworm Jim had been canceled. I don't know how this will affect the downloadable XBLA, PSN, and Wiiware releases, but I'm guessing the news isn't good on those fronts either.

A laugh a day

Posted by Fred Steiner on February 27, 2010 - 8:08pm

I married my husband because a.) he made me laugh; b.) he liked to do the dishes, c.) he got a 100 percent approval rating from all four of my brothers and d.) he was as weird as I was.

Okay, so there were other reasons. He was kind of cute. He liked to go shopping. To malls. He was cheaper than I was. And oh yeah, there was that little thing called love.
