Lunar: Dragon Song now $9.99, still terrible

One of the first RPGs on the DS -- and, arguably, worst -- Lunar: Dragon Song was both a sales disaster and an affront to the Lunar series. With that in mind, we're sure you're thrilled to hear that Amazon is selling the terribly-translated game (blame Ubisoft) for $9.99, a quarter of the ridiculous $39.99 price Lunar: Dragon Song originally debuted with in 2005!

Sure, it's a terrible game, but just think -- for only ten bucks, it could be your terrible game. Or, even better, it could be your friend's terrible game! That's right, you can grab this for a buddy you're not particularly fond of, but are obligated to buy a cheap Christmas present for anyway (Maybe that "pal" who slept with your girlfriend a few years back?). When he calls to ask why you gave him such a loathsome gift, you can be like, "Hey, how was I supposed to know it was garbage? I thought you liked RPGs? By the way, if I ever catch you leering at my girlfriend again, I am going to beat you like a rented mule. Merry Christmas, sucka."

DS Fanboy poll: Remakes of choice


Earlier this week, we asked you, our dear readers, to discuss games you'd like to see given a spit and a polish for the DS in this age of remakes, and as usual, you came through in a big way. In fact, you gave us so many fantastic suggestions that we've decided to split our selected list into two polls instead of just doing one. We can't include everything suggested, obviously, but we've prepared a selection of bigger releases and more obscure titles, and we're going to let you vote every day, just in case you want to throw your support behind more than one game. Once you've voted, we will profile the top two results from each poll and examine exactly why they would be well-suited to our favorite handheld. So try to vote for the titles you think are the most suitable, those that would most benefit from the kind of treatment we're seeing with the Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy titles ... and hey, vote for the games you'd just like to see in portable form as well.

And if you just can't decide ... well, that's why we're letting you vote more than once! You can vote your heart and your brain, and the cream will rise to the top.

Lunar Knights website gets updated

The website for Konami's Lunar Knights game has received a monstrously massive update, complete with new artwork, screens, TV commercials and music. With each media update that site receives, and subsequently we all receive, our excitement grows. Soon, it will reach epic proportions and be seen from space by vampires. Then, we will launch ourselves into space and slay that vampire, just as Lunar Knights would want us to.

Lunar Knights conquer evil through site update, Wi-Fi confirmed

A media explosion just occurred over at the Japanese site for Lunar Knights: Vampire Hunters. While we suspected the game would make use of Nintendo's Wi-Fi Connect service, we may now report that the final boxart shown for the title features the logo, bringing much joy to our hearts.

The site has received a ton of new content in the way of movies and screenshots, so anyone looking to hunt down vampires (even in space) should be especially excited for this title. Wi-Fi details have not been confirmed, but current speculation points to online co-op.
