However, most people don’t think that they’ll need alien abduction insurance, and most men don’t think about getting paternity insurance. But these insurance policies are real. Here are some of the bizarre things you can actually get insurance coverage for:

This month’s new games 2nd April
3rd April
Xenoblade Chronicles A role-playing game which takes place on an immense game world on the remains of two giant titans. It begins with an epic battle, a clash of titans in a world without time or form. The scale, the scope, and the vast expanse of the gameworld are established in this moment. The two giants collide, swords clashing in the misty gulf of the universe, and developer Monolith Soft makes it very clear that you’re about to embark on something special. Much like the thundering behemoths that mark the game’s opening, Xenoblade Chronicles is groundbreaking. It conveys the feeling of freedom to the player and employs an open-end design, allowing much of the world to be explored from the very start. Platform(s): Wii
Devil May Cry: HD Collection An upcoming port of the three Devil May Cry games to Playstation 3 and Xbox 360. The plot does not include a new storyboard to the game but instead includes more additions to the original series that includes trophies/ achievements and high definition graphics. This action-packed set chronicles the complete adventures of Dante, the world’s toughest demon slayer, with Devil May Cry, Devil May Cry 2, and Devil May Cry 3: Dante’s Awakening Special Edition.
