Posted June 30, 2014 Probably because they don't want to advertise they are giving out free money? Saying that I've got £50 back from it. If only 3DS purchases counted. Shame it ends at the end of year. I dont have a hat but if I did i'd be willing to bet my hat that this continues as a basis for fully fledged loyalty scheme.

Posted July 7, 2014 Yay! Pop'n Twinbee! Short but oh so sweet game from a time when Konami were actually with-it. An essential purchase for anyone that's a fan of the shmup genre, and worth getting for the soundtrack alone. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 7, 2014 This'll be my first time playing PnT! So excite! Hope this means that the rest of Konami's un-rereleased catalogue will be coming out in the next few weeks! (I know that CV Dracula X was OFLC/PEGI rated at around the same time as PnT, so fingers crossed!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 7, 2014 Pokemon AND Pop N Twinbee!?!?! Best week in a while for VC releases! Yesssssss! I'd hoped for there to at least be one landmark title available but two? Looks like VC Weekly #300 is going to be a substantial celebration. : peace: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 17, 2014 Has anyone here tried Armillo? It looks a bit crap (and ameturish) visually, but it looks like it could be decent fun and all the impressions I can see online and on Miiverse are universally positive... I like the look of the gameplay and I'm kinda in the mood for a top-down action game right about now... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 17, 2014 Has anyone here tried Armillo? It looks a bit crap (and ameturish) visually, but it looks like it could be decent fun and all the impressions I can see online and on Miiverse are universally positive... I like the look of the gameplay and I'm kinda in the mood for a top-down action game right about now... I'd definitely recommend it for 4 quid. The 3D rotating worlds play very well, and it does look visually nice. It's in the amount of puzzle types on offer throughout the levels it shines, the bosses are a number of fights spread over a level, so they feel the same as a normal level. There are 2D Bonus levels which didn't work for me, bad double jumping, camera too closely zoomed in, etc. But it's worth it just for 3D levels alone, and there's a hell of a lot of collectables. At its best, Armillo pleases with it’s accurate movement mechanics, wonderful sound design, affordable price point and sheer variety of puzzle types on offer. At its worst, it’s frustrating 2D levels and sporadic frame rate freezes bring down an overall enjoyable puzzle platformer (apparently a patch is on the way to fix the frame rate issues, they don't happen often enough to mar the whole experience though).
