I remember the time where I first started to read videogame reviews. I was a kid, around twelve or thirteen, and was in a position where I had my own money from saving allowance and doing the odd job here and there like washing cars. I could now buy my own games, without having to ask my parents, or be surprised on birthdays/Christmas. Exited to purchase my own games, I searched the internet fo...
So my last final was on Friday, and like many of us who are in college, we simply have no time to play all the games we want while busting our asses for that once lambskin ticket to better employment. So now, with the Christmas vacation upon us, I am trying to go back and finish those games that I simply had no time to even look at before. The first that caught my eye was Mass Effect. I bought...
So the fact that Demon's Souls became a Greatest Hits game nudged me enough into buying the game. After reading so much love for this game from fans and reviews, it's kind of crazy how divisive this game has become. So, I finally decided to try the game out for myself, and see if this game is really that brutal. After starting a new game, I choose the class Royalty and went through the tutorial...
Bla bla bla, something about videogames, bla bla. Gimme my XP!
So I just finished Chapter 4 of Tales of Monkey Island, and I must say, it was the best one so far... in terms of story. The puzzles were pretty easy, and none of them really caused me any trouble. I breezed through this one, and as a result it felt shorter that the previous chapters. However, the best part of this chapter was its narrative. Right at the start you are presented with one of the...
This is the full version of my Coke challenge attempt, hope you enjoy it :)
So, for any of you who caught my response on last week's QotW , I expressed on what the "back of the box" of Killzone 2 should look like to thoroughly explain what the game truly is... Thanks to Zatoichi_Sanjuro , my idea has taken form; BEHOLD! THE NEW BACK OF THE BOX FOR KILLZONE 2: My expression says it all, don't you think? Thanks again Zatoichi!
Here's the full version of my video response for February 9th's Question of the Week:
So this is a quick overview I did for the Killzone 2 demo. This is pretty much the first video I've ever done... so forgive me. Also, L2 IS COVER, NOT R2. Throughout most of the video I say that the button for cover is R2, THAT IS INCORRECT, L2 is the cover button, so I am VERY sorry for that. So without further ado... VIDEO:
First of all, let me mention were I stand at Killzone 2 so far. I wasn't particularly "excited" about this game because I was pretty skeptical based on the performance of the first Killzone; yea the graphics were kick ass, but I needed to know what was inside this beautifully packaged present before I jumped on the Killzone 2 party boat. So after reading A LOT of reviews and related media on th...
So Playstation Home Open Beta launched today and here's a brief overview on what it brings: The Central Plaza (main community hub of Home) has a pond where you can play a spaceship minigame which you collect stars and fuel while avoiding mines. In this plaza there is also an area that plays music by some rather unknown artists (or at least to me), currently they are nine songs to listen to and...
So the new update came for Midnight Club Los Angeles that addresses the overwhelming difficulty in the game. I played a good chunk last night and found it to be interesting. So what they have basically done (or as it appears to me) is to make the Easy and Medium races less frustrating. For these two specifically it seems easier to catch up to the AI if you wipe out and when you pass them. If yo...
I went to the GTA IV midnight release at Best Buy. It wasn't so bad, and I don't remembering being too bored. I was just really amped for the game so every second seemed like a minute. Only gripe I had is that there were these three guys in front of me smoking cigarette after cigarette, was pretty unpleasant; but I've come to realize from my many line adventures, if you don't like second hand s...
Some Call of Duty 4 and maybe a little Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn
