Today Activison has revealed that Call of Duty: Black Ops II will be getting a balancing patch very soon for the Xbox 360 and the PC and right now actually for PS3 users and while a number of things have been fixed up in patch 1.04, the most notable changes are the nerfs to two items in the game.

First all SMG weapons have been given higher levels of recoil when fired from the hip and reduced bullet penetration to reduce the complaints of their powerful close-combat capabilities.

It’s shaping up to be a great week to be a frugal gamer. Maybe not as great as a Steam sale week, but pretty close.

The Weekend Deal this week are two great indie games. First up is Hotline Miami at %50 off. This top down shooter is reminiscent of an older simpler age in video gaming and is an absolute steal at $4.99 USD. Pick up your copy here. Next we have FTL: Faster Than Light priced at $5.99 USD (40% off regular price). This rogue like space exploration game is great to play in short bursts but be warned, its extremely addictive. I personally supported this game back when it was on Kickstarter and I don’t regret it at all. I highly recommend picking up this game here.

GreenMan Gaming is running a Winter Voucher week by releasing a new 25% off code that will be valid between 1200 GMT Friday December 7th and 1200 GMT Friday December 14th. These can be applied to most titles on the GMG store on top of any sales. Additionally GMG will be releasing daily codes that provide large discounts on many recently released games. Major deals include 30% off Guild Wars 2 Digital Edition, 35% off Hitman Absolution, 40% off Skyrim, 30% off Fary Cry 3, Assassin’s Creed 3, and the Borderlands 2 Season Pass. The most impressive deal will be on Thursday the 13th of December when Chivalry will be 50% off plus an additional 25% if the coupon is used. Check out the full listing of discounts at GMG and the 25% off code here.

GMG is running a few major sales. I recommend picking up Arkham Asylum Game of the Year Edition at $4.98 USD, Bastion at$4.49 USD, and Hitman: Blood Money, Tropico 3, World of Goo, Defcon: Everybody Dies all at $1.99 USD each. These prices do not include the extra %25 coupon that can be found in the link above. Most of these games should be eligible for the extra discount. These games are a mixed bag of Steam and GMG Capsule downloader, so read carefully. Check out our review of Bastion here.

Get Games is running a sci fi sale with games up to 75% off. Titles of interest include Deus Ex: Human Revolution for Steam at $7.49USD and Bioshock 2 for $4.99 USD. Check out the full sale here. Read our review of Deus Ex: Human Revolution here and our review of Bioshock 2 here.

Finally, GoG.com is running a Myst themed weekend promo, knocking down the price by  %60 for DRM free downloads of the Myst series, Uru Complete Chronicles, and The Manhole: Masterpiece Edition.

Many people were disappointed that Rayman Legends would not be a launch title on the Wii U and even more were disappointed that the game wouldn’t even be hitting in the console’s release window. In fact, until now Ubisoft had left fans with only a vague “Q1 2013” release window.

Well today the company chose to be a bit more specific with the game’s release date as Ubisoft announced today that the game will be released on February 26 in North America while gamers in the UK will be able to access it on March 1st. Ubisoft also revealed that a Rayman Legends demo will be available for download on the Wii U eShop on December 13.

BioShock Infinite delayed once more until March 26

If you thought that Bioshock Infinite’s release date was finally set in stone for February 26 then you are unfortunately very wrong. Today Irrational Games boss Ken Levine revealed to the media today that BioShock Infinite was delayed once again and will now be released on the PC, Xbox 360 and the PlayStation 3 on March 26 next year.

Levine went on to say that “The game has to be the best game it could possibly be,” and that the delay was to make sure that everything in the game was polished and bug fixed. While this delay is certainly disappointing for fans, these gamers would likely prefer the most polished experience possible rather than a buggy experience.

Xbox 360 Is Still The Top Selling Console in US

Big surprise, not really, Xbox 360 remains the top selling gaming console in the US with 1.26 million units sold in November. That’s Microsoft’s 23rd consecutive month as the highest selling console, according to Microsoft’s Chief of Staff for Interactive Entertainment Business Aaron Greenberg who took to twitter to announce the news:

Over the Black Friday weekend alone, more than 750,000 units were sold; a figure that was no doubt fueled by the recently release of two of biggest games of 2012, Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 and Halo 4.

Those two games respectively, topped the highest selling games of the month in the US. Heck Black Ops 2 made more than $1 billion in returns just 15 days after its launch on November 13.

Queue Dr Evil…(but billion rather than million)

Microsoft is also reporting total retail spending on the Xbox 360, hardware, software and accessories included, reached $1.2 billion in November reached $1.2 billion.

Though overall, that figure was down by 13% year-on-year.

Thermae Romae Review

Luke Halliday
-
1


Thermae Romae
Studio: DLE
Publisher: Siren Visual
Format: DVD
Release Date: October 25, 2012
Price: $34.95 – Available Here

Overview:
Thermae Romae is weird. There is no two ways about it. This is an anime series that bathes in it’s own oddity and takes pride in doing so. Because of it’s inherent bizarre nature, it makes for a very difficult series to recommend. You will either love it or hate it for all it’s quirks. There is really no middle ground. There is one thing for sure though, Thermae Romae is hilarious, not because it’s weird but in spite of it.


Story:
The plot of Thermae Romae is relatively simple but simultaneously completely preposterous. Revolving around Roman bathhouse architect Lucius as he tries to come up with new ideas for his creations, Thermae Romae turns a conventional story into an absolute absurd time-travel tale with humour abound.

It’s hard not to laugh at how ridiculous this anime is. It is weird but the humour doesn’t directly derive from that, instead opting for a more dead-pan style with the jokes rolling out from Lucius’ reaction to the bizarre modern day Japanese bathhouses. The concept doesn’t really give much leeway for too much of a story to tell and weighing in at a measly five episodes, that is incredibly obvious. By the time the fifth episodes credits roll it’s clear that they had stretched the concept thin very early on into the series run, with it’s high point coming in it’s first episode in fact, everything after feeling like the wheels spinning aimlessly.

That’s what Thermae Romae ultimately is though, despite how funny it may be, there is really not enough substance for it to be engaging beyond the first episode. The idea behind the series comes undone far too quickly revealing a severe deficiency of plot to support even the three episodes that actually aired on TV. How they managed to squeeze out those two bonus episodes is beyond me as there doesn’t seem to be any real momentum behind any of the situations, with all of them feeling like retreading ground from the episode before it.

Thermae Romae is an odd case as the series was seemingly a last minute replacement in the noitaminA block back in January this year. With only five episodes, the series is pushed to it’s creative limits and the humour very quickly becomes strung out and tiresome. The concept itself appeared to have more potential than it really did, which is a shame as it did seem promising as a quirky comedy series. Despite that though there is some enjoyment to be drawn from Thermae Romae, it’s not much but it’s something.


Visuals and Audio:
In terms of visuals, Thermae Romae seems very out of place in the anime landscape instead sporting a look that would be more at home among the adult swim comedy line-up. On top of that the animation is very weak. There is next to no fluid animation whatsoever and in its place is a lot of still frames of the exact same shot of a characters face that is repeated in nearly every scene. It’s cheaply made and that is resoundingly apparent. Thermae Romae is not a appealing series aesthetically but it is a funny one. Some of the shots are just hilarious because of how stupid they look. Take a look at the screenshots in this review for example. The expression you see on Lucius’ face never really seems to change too greatly outside of the standard three looks he has and the transition between those expressions is animated so poorly you’d think you were watching a still frame dating sim with wet naked Romans.

The soundtrack of Thermae Romae isn’t very memorable, featuring an OP and ED theme that do not suit the series at all. On top of that the incidental music is rather grating and becomes frustrating very easily due to its repetitive nature. There is not a lot of creativity in the soundtrack which is disappointing as a bizarre series like this could have pulled off something offbeat and out of the ordinary. It’s a shame that DLE opted for something more conventional and monotonous. There could of been some very creative and interesting things done musically for this series but DLE took the lazy route, a decision that was undoubtedly a mistake.


Extras:
One of my major gripes with this release is it’s minuscule amount of content. Now it does contain two unaired episodes which brings the episode count up to five, there does not appear to be any other special features on disc, contrary to what Siren Visual’s website states. I searched the DVD to find the alleged ‘TV Spots’ and ‘trailers’ but found nothing of the sort. This is rather disappointing considering this release only contains five episodes. Some bonus content no matter how insignificant would have been appreciated. But due to the bog-standard contents of this release it is very hard to recommend even to fans of Thermae Romae.


Overall:
It is strange that Thermae Romae even made it to air in Japan. It is an incredibly short series focused on an incredibly specific and oddball topic that really doesn’t develop into anything. If it hadn’t been for Black Rock Shooter being delayed it’s hard to say that Thermae Romae would have ever been made. Regardless of all that though, it is a fun series despite its numerous issues. This release contains the three aired episodes as well as two that didn’t air, but that is it. If you aren’t a hardcore fan of this series I can’t really recommend this release as the price is pretty steep for the amount of content on disc and the series itself is nothing to write home about. It’s weird, it’s badly animated and it’s sense of humour comes with a side of cheese, Thermae Romae is far from the quality that we are accustomed to with Siren Visual. But as they say, there is an audience for everything.
