Retro City Rampaging Across All Formats!

Well, almost all formats.

Remember that update that Retro City Rampage creator Brian Provinciano promised us last week? It came today, and it is a good one. No longer will you be confined to experiencing the throwback madness on XBLA and WiiWare, but now also on PlayStation Vita, PlayStation Network, and of course Steam. How's that for a doozy? And the Steam version is chock full of bonus goodies that will make any multi-console owner lean toward picking up that PC copy. Feel the burn, iOS/Android gamers!

So sit back, relax, watch this latest trailer - which is another frantic ode to the 80s that RCR has just about mastered - and wait for the spring release date. Preorder that bitch right here! 

Cats Aren't Very Good at Go Vacation

Written by Colby Sites

As a crazy cat man gentleman living alone with two felines, a game like Go Vacation is an odd choice. You see, kitties are notorious for having neither thumbs nor attention spans for video games. Despite this egregious setback, we embarked on our journey to Kawawii Island to let the vacation begin.

Go Vacation: You Are the Review

I'm finally getting the chance to experiment with something I've been wanting to try for a very long time. Last week, I was sent a review copy of Go Vacation for Wii, courtesy of my chums at Namco Bandai Games. The problem is, my Wii has been broken for months, so this fun little title is going to waste in my possession. Rather than cry myself to sleep while spooning the unopened copy of what is surely Namco Bandai's opus, I'm reaching out for your help, dear reader. 

Here's the plan: leave a comment below. If you're a regular reader, you know the drill for OBG giveaways. I'd like your comment to be on topic, so if you should feel inclined, let me know what your dream destination to Go Vacation would be. Or, just say something along the lines of "ii want a frii Wii game." I don't discriminate. HOWEVER! The winner MUST supply a review of the game, to be featured on OBG. This review can be anything you'd like; a write up, a song, a youtube video, a series of comic panels, whatever. All I ask is that you carry this out if you win. Honor system bros, we're bringing it back!

In a perfect world, the winner will be a family of gaming parents with an excitable, hyper-cute little offspring, but I'm sure the odds of that are slim to none. So, no matter who you are, where you live, or how bad you smell, this contest is open to you, provided you are willing to do the review! Depending on how well this goes, it may become a regular operation here, so maybe this time next year I'll want to get 10 user reviews of Call of Duty: Modern Ops 4. You never know, right?
