Oh, yes, Treasure is making a sequel to one of its infuriatingly difficult games.  The “Sin and Punishment 2” teaser is below.

I have this stupid little people comparison app on my Facebook page that, against my will, periodically sends me updates in my email.  This week, on my list of strengths, was “craziest.”  I would lay awake at night wondering if I was just a little too sane; now I can rest easy.

We’ve been getting some fairly decent storms this year, but tonight was a really good one. I was playing the piano, and out of the blue, I got a text message from Gil saying that a tree had fallen outside his apartment near our office. Out of curiosity, I turned on the news, and I heard things like “hurricane speed winds” and “horizontal rain.” Awesome.

What was a bit amusing was when the news blacked out for a minute, and they came back on all perplexed that their power went off, since that’s “not supposed to happen.” Then, I guess they noticed that they were broadcasting a random conversation between the camera guy and somebody else, and they gave us some “Grey’s Anatomy” instead.

And it looks like the rain is going again. I’ve been waiting for a storm like this since I got down to Phoenix.

Oh, and it’s hailing a bit too.

What is probably currently my favorite series finally got another news update. (Silent Hill is extremely close behind—fractions of decimals even—in case anyone is wondering about that.) Japan gets this game at the end of the month, so the only question is, “How long until it’s localized?” Personally, I’d be happy with English menus and subtitles for the dialog, but I’m weird I guess. The game is very Japanese, and takes place in Japan, after all; so it only makes sense to play it in Japanese. But then, I decided to play Ninja Gaiden 2 in Japanese with subtitles too.

Here’s a trailer; I’m excited.

Oh, the awesomeness that is a good Mega Man tune. Watch and love. And buy this when it comes out so they make more fantastic classic Mega Man games. I might get it for both my Wii and my XBox in order to boost the numbers; yes I may be crazy.
