What is Monoco?
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Monaco is a top down game where you play as a robber who is...well, robbing something while avoiding guards and alarms and such. There are various roles and these roles each have different strengths, for example the Locksmith can pick locks on things faster. Of course, it's probably a lot more fun to play with multiple people so you have the abilities of multiple roles.

I got most of this from Wikipedia tbh, but I did watch one video of it a long time ago and it looked pretty fun. Plus I think a lot of people on MS like it. If Kcdaspot doesn't give you his extra key, it's a pay-more-than-the-average game on the Humble Indie Bundle.

Yeah. Co-op robbery where the idea is to be as stealthy as possible but it usually breaks into chaos by the end. Art style is very unique.

Meh, I have so much more to do. Like play Civ V more. I wanna do playthoughs of Mass Effect, Fallout 3, 2 Worlds 2. I wanna finally sit down and play Borderlands and Rising Dead. I',m a bit Old Republic'd out but yea...if KC gives me his key I'll try it out but I don't think I'll play it that much so if someone else REALLY REALLY REALLY wants it then it should go to them.

I also have $40 in game stop gift cards and I don't know what I wanna get from there. I did buy this game called The First Templar but that was lame so I took it back.

It's only really good with friends, I think, because it gets ridiculously chaotic.

I tried playing starseed pilgrim tuesday because it looked cool and stuff but it made me want to simultaneously kill someone and fall asleep after less than an hour of play and I'm like "so this isn't fun, uh oh"
so I now consider it the worst game in the bundle yay bundle isn't beautifully perfect anymore, just close to it

HOLD IT!

Mr. bv310, I think you are withholding information from us. Phoenix Wright may indeed be, "great stuff", but is that really all it is? No, I think even that is a massive understatement and that you should be less vague in your testimonies in the future.

TAKE THAT!

I think you may have a valid point there. Also, I found this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-_-ej_kxpm0 when I was looking for a gameplay video and it's bizarre and awesome.

For those of you who are playing, The Walking Dead Episode 2 is confirmed for March 4th.
One time, back in 'nam, Sudo was set upon by an entire squadron of charlies. He challenged them all to a game of Pictionary, which he won resoundingly. The charlies were forced to not only surrender the skirmish, but also their world-famous chili recipe, which Sudo sold to Texas for a hefty profit. Sudo is a master of diplomacy.

FINALLY

I've been waiting for that for so long

Also, in regard to Phoenix Wright, while it is a great game, I feel that being able to press every single thing in a witness's testimony over and over without penalty makes the game far too easy

You've never played Phoenix Wright 2 or 3 then, the first one is way easier, penalties get ramped up and more restrictions added in the later entries.
I know there's one point in Trials and Tribulations where you have to press one specific statement in a testimony of like 15 statements and if you press the wrong one you lose the case.
Aside from that some of the leaps of logic you have to make can be tough to figure out, too, even without penalties for pressing.

Yay that's awesome! I was completely blown away and addicted to the first season...it was so much fun. Haven't had the chance to do episode 1 or 400 Days, but I imagine they are just as good as the previous ones.
