E3 2009: Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 Impressions
Ninja Gaiden II for the Xbox 360 was both loved for its intense action and also chastised for lacking the polish of the first Ninja Gaiden game. The original Ninja Gaiden II for the Xbox 360 was devleoped under Tomonobu Itagaki. Well now Itagaki is gone and the new and remanding team Ninja Members make an attempt to improve the game for the release as Sigma 2 on the Playstation 3. I was a huge fan...[Read More]
E3 2009: Wipeout HD Fury Impressions
One of the biggest true surprises of the E3 2009 for me was stumbling upon the playable Wipeout HD expansion in the Sony Playstation Network show floor area. I truly stopped dead in my tracks when I saw it. I spent quite a bit of time with it and was fortunate enough to get a walk through of the new content from the game’s Director Tony Buckley.
E3 2009: Tekken 6 (Console Version) Impressions
Tekken lovers will be pleased. The game has not lost any of the flair that has made it one of the best fighting game series around. After playing it I can also understand why its one of the most popular fighting games in Japan at the moment. The game includes 40 characters consisting of 36 classic and 6 brand new characters. On the console version you will be able to create your own characters and...[Read More]
E3 2009: Batman Arkham Asylum Impressions
I played Batman Arkham Asylum at least once per day over the three days the show floor was open at E3. I gave the game multiple tries because I really wanted the game to resonate with me. Batman Arkham Asylum was a much different game than I had imagined. The game looks great. From a graphics and art style stand point Batman Arkham Asylum is hands down the best Batman game to date. Buyer beware, t...[Read More]
E3 2009: Split Second Impressions
Not to be confused with Blur, Split Second is a game by Disney studios and the developers of Pure. In my opinion after having played both Blur and Spilt Second I do think that Split Second is more up my alley. Both are arcade style racers and both are aggressive racing games. The art style and car designs all relay really well that the game is a destruction derby type of deal. Your goal is to win ...[Read More]
Sony Press Conference… I Need To Attend More Sh*t Like This
I woke up early as sh*t this morning (once again) then Brooklyn and I headed over to the Shrine Auditorium where Sony was holding their annual E3 press conference. I must say…even though Sunday evenings Momma’s Hot Tamales event was an epic fail for Sony in my opinion (some “official” blog that shall remain nameless made the occasion out to be the social event of the year…I warned y’al...[Read More]
Uncharted 2: Among Thieves – E3 HD Trailer
This video is no longer available. Here is a new HD trailer for Uncharted 2 that gives insight into the single player campaign. Very cinematic and comes across just like a movie trailer. Uncharted 2: Among Thieves is at the top of my most anticipated list.
Wipeout HD Fury: HD Trailer
This video is no longer available. Oddly enough, during the flight to E3 I played Wipeout Pulse on the PSP and wondered if Wipeout HD would ever get a significant update. Well Wipeout Fury is exactly that. Adding zone battles, eliminator and detonator modes, 8 new tracks and 13 new ship the Wipeout HD Fury expansion pack seems like something to get excited over. Check out these screens:
God of War 3 HD Trailer
This video is no longer available. God of War III is shaping up to be a huge release and from the looks of this teaser video it all makes sense.
ModNation Kart Racers: Race It, Mod It, Share It
ModNation Racers is a kart racing game for the PS3 scheduled for a 2010 release. Players will be able to customize their character, kart, and also create custom tracks to race on using track creation tools. The ability to share created tracks is also planned.
Stop Being Greedy: Swag Giveaways
There are few words that seem to annoy me more than “swag” has lately. So over used and was maybe kind of clever to say for a few months three years ago. Now its my swag this, swagga like us and its all so tired. In any case our swag can be your swag. And by swag we mean Stuff We All Get (SWAG). We will be randomly giving away what we get here at E3 so stay tuned right here. This Uncha...[Read More]
King of Fighters Tournament Wrap-Up
The event was a good time. The amount of people that showed up was just about perfect and you didn’t really have to wait long to play. There were lots of beat downs being handed out and plenty Playstation 3 consoles on deck. Actually there were no Xbox 360 versions of the game at the event. I am pretty sure that the game build up for play was not the final build as there was a particular sta...[Read More]
