• Pandemic Studios has officially closed its doors, but the brand and its games live on. What does this mean for the future of Mercenaries and Electronic Arts' overall strategy?
• Andrew reviewed Assassin's Creed II but Adam's been just as obsessed with Ubisoft's latest sprawling epic, while Abbie and I try to play catch up on what we've missed out on.
• Valve's zombie horde is back in Left 4 Dead 2, so I used Feedback to help further make the case for why the sequel is justified as something more than just downloadable combat.
• A reader asks why we play games, especially ones we finish all the way to the end.

And by tick I mean: kick so much ass. The game developers take pride in being able to "sadistically" kill enemies with torture moves. Other moves unique to the game include Bayonetta using her hair to summon demons or having a giant stiletto crush enemies. Check out this developer diary to see for yourself.

You too can can use stilettos to vanquish enemy angels January 5th 2010 for the Xbox 360 and PS3.
