Above and below you will see a Metal Sonic costume and Tails’ Tails accessory for Spiral Knights, a game I don’t play nearly enough. How do you get them?

Another day, another Total War game I wish I could play. The only Total War game I think I can run on my laptop is Total War Rome. Maybe.

It is kinda funny writing the words Launch Trailer for a game I played in 1996 (on the SEGA CD no less) but it is still way past cool.

What isn’t so cool is that I’m not sure if the game is actually landed on the networks yet.

[Update] SEGA has clarified the launch dates: 

XBLA – December 14, 2011 (400 MSP)

PSN – December 14, 2011 in Europe, December 20, 2011 in North America ($5.00 / £3.59/ €4.49 / AUD$6.25)

SEGA announced a standalone expansion to the popular Total War series for March of 2012. THis means the series will be getting a fresh campaign and a tweaked multiplayer experience.

_{“New on the scene will be America, Britain and France, whose arrival incites a ferocious civil war to decide the fate of the nation. You’ll be able to play one of six new playable clans, supporting either the Imperial throne or the last Shogunate.In Fall of the Samurai, we’ll be supporting features like railway networks, ironclad warships, improved siege battle mechanics (with upgradable tower defenses, each with their own specialty).“}

Right now, a PC gamer is grinning ear-to-ear and taunting a console gamer. Check out more information: here.
