  Bodycount: Demo Impressions.

  I've just loaded up the Xbox Live demo for Bodycount. After watching the mission brief I get in game and look at the controls screen.
  
  The controls intrigue me. Controls for weapons marked: Knife, fire weapon, explosive bullets, grenades, cook grenade, impact grenade, deploy mines, something called a Target Pulse Wave.
  
  It has a control marked WMD Airstrike.
  
  I am buying this game.
  I'll actually play the demo tomorrow.

  an odd sort of journey- Captain America: Super Soldier

  I have learned first hand that the only way to unlock the classic 'Wings & Scales' Costume in Captain America: Super Soldier is to earn 25,000 intel points(exp). Something I accomplished 2 hours after finishing my initial playthrough. There's no way to begin a new game with the Classic Cap outfit. So on my second playthrough, I've stopped at the beginning of the third chapter of the campaign and have begun grinding out 25,000 intel points on combat challenges. I started yesterday, and so far I'm at approximately 6,000.

  How long will it take...?

  I've just counted five levels on my copy of Samurai Warriors Chronicles for my 3DS that were not there when I brought it home from Toys 'R' Us on launch day. In the sixteen weeks since then ten separate content packs have been released providing new levels and weapons- all downloads are handled automatically by subscription and I didn't pay a dime for any of it.
  
  Nintendo finally got something internet-related right, and I hope they build on that. But I can't help but wonder how long it will take for them to start selling this content on the eShop instead of passing it down the Spotpass wire.
