Wow, that was quite the
shipping day yesterday. Lots of good titles this week. My personal favorites are Op. Flashpoint 2, Demon's Souls and Republic Heroes (something about the art style), but I'm sure there will be a few stragglers later this week as well.
We finished off "Crank 2" today, that movie is so absurd and over the top that it was actually semi-entertaining. It's not as good as the first one, but they sure went all out with the weirdness.
Our DVR had a snafu and for some reason only recorded half of "House" and "NCIS," so we ended up watching the new "Castle," with our personal hero
Nathan Fillion! Sunday's episode of "Entourage" was also quite good; the Matt Damon "Jason Bourne" cameo was very entertaining, especially the bit after the credits.

No further information is known, and speculations whether it might concern a remake of its 1996 top-down racer are just that, but the filing does indicate it might be a downloadable title, either for a Good Old Games/Steam re-release or maybe a PSN/XBLA remake, as it makes mention of "printed instructions or printed hint manuals sold therewith as a unit."
