Super Dodge Ball Brawlers

it's been delayed in japan , so i guess it's safe to say it'll be delayed here, too. hopefully it won't be a super long delay....

*sigh*

i want, NOW....

GTA gets a release date

April 29th, it is.... not that i'm going to get it.... ah, who am i kidding.....

Machete trailer

i really hope Robert Rodriguez gets around to making this movie......

holy shit, the king is dead

well not really, but it's the first time i can remember any other game besides a Halo game in the top Xbox Live weekly report. Call of Duty 4 is being reported as the top game by Major Nelson. wow. it really is that good, though......

weekend games

so i spent a big chunk of the weekend plowing through the Orange Box version of Half Life 2. after abandoning the game halfway through the boat driving levels, i picked it up again, determined to power through those long-ass levels and finish the game. little did i realize that i still had another shitty driving level, and a don't-touch-the-sand-because-the-antlions-will-get-you!!! level. i fucking hate shit like that. but i have to admit, controlling those antlions later on was pretty cool. but this post isn't about The Orange Box, it's about two kick-ass retro-style games some uber-fanboys made. not too sure how old they are, but both of these are new to me!! all of this comes from this destructoid post. Super Mario Fusion: Mushroom Kingdom Hearts i love how intrepid Nintendo fans take things into their own hands and make games that would never have a chance in the real world. take this game, a crazy-ass mario game that has levels set in the Mega Man universe, in th

OMG i need this

actually, i don't really need this, but i do know a few people who's FPS skillz need some work. FPSBrain is some kind of concoction that supposdly improves reaction speed, among other things.... from the offical FPS-Brain site... 1 FpsBrain is the only effective product with a 110% money-back guarantee. Clinical research and expert knowledge made it possible to develop an effective neural accelerator. 2 FpsBrain is active within the first 60 minutes after use and releases its active ingredients constantly for 6 hours maximum into the body. 3 Fps has been tested by experience computer players and results in a remarkable increase in perception and reaction capacities. 4 FpsBrain contains only ingredients that have been tested and are approved in Germany. 5 Unlike ordinary energizer FpsBrain has a sugar-free formulation. 6 All our staff use FpsBrain at least four times a week to enhance their mental performance and their work efficieny. 7 The production process of Fp

yeah, this qualifies as a WTF video. (slightly NSFW)

Psycho Nintendo Fanboy

what a freak. this guy flips out over the recent Super Smash Bros Brawl delay, and is the worst kind of fanboy, the psychotic uber-nerd. i'm suprised his head didn't explode at the end. i just hope it's a joke, because this makes me nervous about picking the game up on day one.......

Super Smash Bros. Brawl video

Here's a video introducing SSB:Brawl and the new stuff in it. it's a bit long, totally in Japanese, but well worth seeing. Considering Famitsu gave it a perfect score, i think it's safe to say i'll be getting this on day one......

Audiosurf and Ninja Gaiden DS

AudioSurf is a indie game that looks awesome. it takes any mp3 that you have laying around and turns it into a tetris/frequency/amplitude-type puzzle game. from the AudioSurf site..... In Audiosurf, you race down a futuristic and colorful highway. The highway, the traffic patterns, and the scenery are all synchronized to the music you have chosen from your own collection. You earn points for clustering together cars of the same color on the highway, and can compete with others on the internet for the high score on your favorite songs. Audiosurf builds a highway for any music CD, MP3, iTunes M4A, WMA, or OGG song you choose, so the experience that you have is totally up to you. register on the site for a crack at the beta opening Feb 08. here's a few videos of the game in action. it really looks cool, as long as you don't break out the speed metal or breakbeat...... i'm still on the fence about this DS version of Ninja Gaiden, but less doubtful since playi

it's new again this year

pirate baby cabana street fight 2006 it's old, and i've posted it pleny of times, but dammit, it's still badass.....

NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Smash Bros Brawl delayed.....FUUUUUUUUCCCCCKKKKKK!!!!!!!!!! ah, it's only a month......

Resistance: Fall of Man 2 details in the new Game Informer

Image
although i'm still not planning on buying a PS3 ( although the recent HD-DVD defections is disappointing ), the details released in this month's Game Informer regarding Resistance 2 are very VERY interesting. a few excerpts... • One campaign focusing on Nathan Hale across USA • One separate story based campaign supporting 2 players offline, 8 players Online yep, that's 8 player online co-op!!!! • Online Multiplayer (dedicated servers) supporting 60 people, lobbies for individual squads • Classes for online, templates include Heavy, Special Ops, Medic • Mobile phone quality headset voice transfer • Partial randomized geometry in level spots • Boss fights in FPS gaming finally done right • New vehicles including Chameleon (Stalker with cloak) • Insane stat tracking & community features coupled with MyResistance.net now i know that by the time this game comes out, the game will have dropped more than a few of the features they say it will have, but even if they can delive

Warcraft impressions

Image
i spent a few hours last night with a trial version of World of Warcraft. it's been a few years since the game's been out, and i'm fully aware of it's status as the reigning champ of the pc mmo world, but 3 hours is enough to know it's not for me. i've never been a fan of this type of game, or of PC RPG's in general. having heard stories of the level grind players go through to get to a respectable level makes it even less appealing. that's not to say the game isn't good, but in my opinion, i'd rather be in a MMO where i can shoot someone or toss a grenade at their feet than skip around with 20 other people poking an overgrown gerbil with a sword. maybe i've had too much haterade, but whatever, that's my opinion. and wtf with that monster 4 gig install??

geek-out

it's not everyday that a trailer can make me freek out. Yoda and Darth Vader in the new Soul Caliber IV??? yep, today's one of those days. too bad the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions get one each. (Vader to PS3, Yoda to the 360)

best of 07

i said I'd get to the best of list that i feel I'm somehow obligated to post, even though I'm not sure if anyone besides those goddamn spambots that troll Blogger read it. it's a bit harder than it seems, to get all your thoughts together and narrow down every game to a "top 10" list, so i'll just throw the baby out with the bathwater and list my favorite games in no particular order. if it's here it rocked, and if it isn't, it didn't rock hard enough. Rock Band. it's a great game, if you have friends or living humans around who are willing to look a bit silly in exchange for having the most fun with a local multiplayer game evar. the tweaks made to the Guitar Hero formula are small, but significant. the guitar sucks, but the Guitar Hero 2 axe works just fine. i just wished the single player game was better. the world tour mode only works with a full band, so it's super boring going solo. Bomberman and Halo 1 are close seconds, but

what took so long????

either this is brand spanking new, or old as hell.

delays, sickness and marathons

back from vacation on sunday, to some weirdly great weather. i've been out of it for far too long, and since everyone has already gone over their Best Games of the Year lists, i figure i'd get around to making my own soon. just not today. no, today you get a video of a Assassin's Creed guard doing some solo loving on a wall. he even stops to look around, and keeps on trucking!!!!

old, but new to me
