Apparantly Major Nelson doesn't have access to it this week.

>_<

Why does this always happen when I look forward to it more than usual? (with two new games, a price-drop on Lumines and Puzzle Quest second week)

I actually told him to do that just to mess with you. LOL.

MAJOR NELSON HAETS TEH ARMCHAIR MICRO-ECONOMISTS!!!!!11

Sorry, just had to get that out of my system. I agree, the weeks we really want to see a chart tend to be the ones we don't get them for. I'm sure it's just bad luck, though.

Looks like we're not getting one this week either.

Major dereliction of duty.

Well, all our ill thoughts have obviously spurred Mr Hryb into action, because we have a top 10 again, and for the first time in who knows how long, UNO's not on it!

Yes. Should I post it here or wait for someone to put it on the front page and discuss it there?

My comments:

* BSG first place? Probably because of the name. I didn't like it all, or what do you say?

* A mediocre first week for MSE. But I've noticed that Major Nelson usually posts the list on saturdays (instead of sundays) now, so maybe we should lower our first week expectations for new titles.

* Puzzle Quest still 2nd place :O For 1200 points, I didn't even think it would still be on the list after, what have it been, four weeks or something. Well deserved anyway, it's a excellent game. I reached level 50 today actually.

* Lumines Live. Looks like the permanent price drop had an affect, which is great. Not only because LL is the best game on XBLA, but because it also encourages other developers to lower the prices.

New one out today:

Top Arcade Titles (Full Versions)
1 Mutant Storm Empire
2 Battlestar Galactica
3 EXIT
4 Pinball FX
5 Word Puzzle
6 Switchball
7 3D Ultra Minigolf Adventures
8 Bomberman LIVE
9 Speedball 2
10 Every Extend Extra Extreme

Hm, I'm starting do doubt if these lists really are correct. Some things just doesn't make sense compared to last week. Suddenly there's no Puzzle Quest at all and Pinball FX is at 4th place? Originally, even Omega Five was on the list. And this isn't the first time the Major has to edit it.

What do you think? Am I just being overly suspicious? :p
