NY Times Calls Halo 3 and Mario Galaxy “UNAMBITIOUS”
Must say I totally disagree. People love these sequels because the basis or root of the game itself remains the same. If the formula is changed too much its not what people loved. As far as galaxy goes the experience is MUCH different. This must have been a critique for the sake of being contrary because this assertion is way off the mark. Halo 3 is a polished gem of a science-fiction shooter. But...[Read More]
Paper Mario…Real Paper Animation

Ninja Gaiden 2 Game Footage
Video no longer available (originally hosted on GameTrailers). The action is fast and bloody.
Google Zeitegist: Wii Wins! PS3 Looses…
Google Zeitegist just posted some interesting charts about the most searched for consoles. Guess who’s on top? This whole HD dvd vs Blue ray thing is so confusing since both claim to be winning and the Google Zeitegist page shows that HD DVD is searched for much more.
Thoughts on the EGM Street Fighter IV Feature Story
So yesterday when I got home I finally received the latest EGM magazine with the Street Fighter IV cover/feature. I am very glad I signed up when we posted that free EGM subscription deal because it works. I sat and read and I must say I was impressed by the feature and more importantly, I was impressed by what was said in the feature by Street Fighter 4 Producer Yoshinori Ono. I will try to quote...[Read More]
Contra 4 Verdict… Put it on your Holiday List
Let keep this short and to the point. Contra 4 for the Nintendo DS should be on your lists of games to have. If you have any fond memories of Contra this game is for you. Its well worth the $29.99 price tag. You get the new Contra 4 and unlockable Super C and original Contra games. Its very challenging so you wont breeze though it. The developers really nailed it. Contra 4 feels fresh while at the...[Read More]
Halo 3 Heroic Map Pack Launch: Disappointing
Ok, so this morning before heading out the door I decide ill take a good 30 minutes to download and try out the new Halo 3 maps released today. So I go to the marketplace and see the Map Pack available and think “SWEET!”. After payment to Microsoft for more points the download of the map pack went without a hitch. “SWEET!” Then I start up Halo 3 and see that access to the n...[Read More]
Halo 3: Heroic Map Pack Video tour
Video no longer available (originally hosted on GameVideos). The whole “blank Foundry map, you make your own stage” shit sounds weak to me. Im paying 10 bucks so at least give me a default version of the Foundry map with objects already in it AND allow me to make a custom one in forge. All bitching aside im still getting those new maps. HA!
Thoughts on Last Nights Video Game Awards
The VGA awards were pretty pointless in my opinion. It was like one HUGE commercial… no… it was like all the mini product plugs formed to make one HUGE commercial like Voltron or some shit. They actually skipped the announcement of many important award categories (like best action game) and yet made us sit through awful Kid Rock and Foo Fighters performances. Also noted that there were...[Read More]
Afro Samurai Game and Live Movie In The Works
Video no longer available (originally hosted on GameTrailers). Namco now has rights to publish two different “Afro Samurai” video games over the next five years. The games better be as great as the series. Im hoping the RZA will be involved in the sound for the game as he is the anime. “’Afro Samurai’ is a visually striking and rich story.” said Jeff Lujan, business directo...[Read More]
Ghost Squad Review
Video no longer available (originally hosted on GameTrailers). Yes, it gets pooped on… sorta. Also check this cheezy trailer for the game.
