That's right. I just dropped some AOL IM protocol.

So iPhone finally got its Bastion port. Never played it before.

Convince me, Flood. I'm on the fence.

I try my best to block out the screams
But they're haunting me in my dreams
Please, break my shackles, I want it to stop

I can't attest to the quality of the ios port, but Bastion is a great game.

Don't know why you should buy it, but apparently people create waterfalls over the narration.

I don't know how the iOS port is either, but I can agree that it is a great game. The story is as rich as the artwork featured in the game.

Just call me Whitcher

Onion Invasion was on the spot randomness that I entered when I first got xbox live. I have changed my GT once.

If I go of topic, It's known as Whitchering

I'd pay a fiver just for the soundtrack.

Heavy weighs the crown, low hangs the head who wears it.

Fantastic game. Story and overall entertainment value wise, it was one of the better games of the last 2 years.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

The kid reaches out to an old friend: the forum. It isn't what it used to be since the calamity, but then again, nothing was.

Aww, c'mon, you beat me to it!

OP, it's definitely worth a buy. (Not sure about versions other than 360, though.) The ending is very interesting and will have you think before you make a call. Give it a shot.

The kid is cascaded with suggestions on all sides. He's tempted to give in, but he can't defeat his doubts.
