There's a flash Humble Bundle on for rhythm games. I think @badp might be interested

ESJ is great but I'm not sure I'd call it a rhythm game

Is Groove City the same as the regular game?

unless Groove City plays entirely different from ESJ, only played that one

@Powerlord It's been a month or two now. I was pleasantly surprised when the filter was first put in place that Arqade wasn't blocked, and I chalked it up to the fact that it was a subdomain of a website that obviously shouldn't be blocked.

@Fluttershy Playstation TV comes out a couple weeks before Freedom Wars. Cheaper than a Vita, and should allow you to play it.

It was more just a mention that the barrier to entry for Freedom Wars is lower.

For single player, at least.

@Frank It doesn't. But the Playstation TV isn't going to allow all games to be played on a big screen. I think.
