We will never hear this voice make this noise again There is something I failed to realize about death. When someone dies, the physical presence of that person is gone. The warmth you felt as he physically stood next to you; as he put his arm around you, you can never feel that again. Because he can no longer be in that physical proximity. He’s gone. I never could have felt that loss with Ryan...
We've been dealing with the Wii, Xbox 360 and PS3 for far too long now. Seriously. About 7 years in and save for a few games (I'm looking at you Last of Us and Halo 4), the current generation of consoles haven't been able to facilitate games that are interesting anymore. We've come to a point where, for the most part, creativity has run dry. At least once a month, we get a first person shooter...
So, I was just doing some thinking and realized that with Halo: Reach out last year, and gears 3 out this year, Microsoft needs a big shooter for their holiday in Fall 2012. I doubt 343 would be ready with a new Halo game and while Microsoft and Call of Duty are like brothers now, exclusive DLC prospects is not strong enough to carry Xbox through the holiday. So with Halo and Gears 90% out of t...
A troll on the Bungie forums asked everyone to make a rap about Bungie and this whole code fiasco and said the best one will get a code. He was OBVIOUSLY lying. But I liked the idea, thought it was fun and decided to make one myself. Here's what I got. I say you know me, Bungie I'm like your biggest fan. But this code shit, it ain't happening It kinda blows, man. Sitting at ma desktop, watching...
From the Beginning, You know the End The story of Bungie is wild, winding, and full of majestic wonder. We’ve treaded many pathways over these last nineteen years. But for all the twists and turns we’ve taken, we’re still doing what we set out to do from the beginning, back when the whole of “Bungie Software Products Corporation” consisted of two friends operating out of a basement in Chicago:...
Someone from NeoGAF got the magazine, PSM3 and there was a feature on F.E.A.R 3 and they decided to summarize the article bits... Alma's pregnancy has opened a rift in space and time. Her contractions are causing shockwaves that are fucking up reality like Half Life 2's portal storms. As her labour progresses the contractions will come stronger and more frequently. Point Man is back from the ch...
Get that $50 ready, Ryan. Listen from 1:50 onwards. And I don't think he's talking about the Sonar Goggles here.
Of course, its a Yoga game. According to a pulled Amazon page and a GAME 360 release document obtained by VG247, a “Yoga Natal” title is set for release in October, adding credence to previous talk of the motion camera shipping that month. The internal GAME release list, passed over by a source under conditions of anonymity, lists the fitness title at the very bottom at an “October” release. It...
USB Memory Support for the Xbox 360 coming April 6th On April 6th, we will be releasing a system update over Xbox LIVE for your Xbox 360 that will allow USB flash drives to be used for storing profiles, game saves, demos and more. I’ve been testing this feature out for a few weeks, and I have to say it’s really great. Once you take the system update on April 6th, you’ll be able to connect your...
Refer to this, this, this, and this too, With more coming next week and the subsequent weeks. Bungie's raising the bar people... F- YEA!
And god damn, does it look amazing!!?!?! http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link=HaloReach_ViDoc
All in one place NOTE: THESE SHOTS WERE TAKEN IN AN OLD BUILD DATING BEFORE THANKSGIVING. THE GAME HAS YET TO REACH ALPHA STAGE OF DEVELOPMENT YET. HYPE!
Be a Hero! Bungie fans, we're asking you to step up, "Be a Hero," and help us help Haiti. At 4:53pm on Tuesday, January 12th, 2010, a magnitude 7.0 earthquake swept through the Republic of Haiti and shook the nation to its knees. We’ve watched in shock, horror, and sadness as men, women, and children scramble amidst the rubble looking for friends, family, and loved-ones. We struggle to make sen...
NOTE: THIS LIST INCLUDES GAMES NOT RELEASED IN 2009 BUT THE ONES I PLAYED IN 2009, SO IT MAY INCLUDE GAMES FROM YEARS PAST. So, watching the GB crew run down their Top 10 lists got me thinking of my own and well, 2009 was awesome. So many amazing games came out, so many great announcements. Hell 2010 is gonna even more fantastic because if anything, 2009's got me hyped for damn 2010. So I break...
http://forums.xbox.com/4/30389133/ShowPost.aspx#30389133 Read the posts on this thread from that particular page onwards. The dude in question is defensivejosh. Quite honestly, it is quote upsetting that someone would even say that, even if its just mindless trolling. Even as a troll, that's disgusting.
Now before anyone says it, yes, Its semi-Halo related. Yes, its been posted onto the General discussion board. No, I am not stupid. Read the entire post. I was searching up some stuff and came across a series of videos detailing the making of Halo 2, from the beginning right till the end. Bungie, many times, have said it was the most heart-breaking game they have ever made because of a lot of b...
Yea... I'm serious. The Spike TV VGA Awards is on 12/12 and as always, its more about the exclusive previews for next year's games than the actual awards. Geoff recently went on to Major's Minute, the podcast of Major Nelson (Xbox Live Bro for those who don't know) and said the following about Halo: Reach: "At the VGAs, you'll actually go down onto the Planet Reach and see this game for the fir...
Now, in light of ODST's announcement and its imminent release, people have been throwing this idea out a lot. And I must be dumb or something, because I just can't see it! How the hell is Halo being milked right now? Its been what? 8 years since Halo's entry into our lives and we've had 5 games. And I don't know, someone please enlighten me but what exactly is the definition of being milked? Be...
So, earlier this week, as some of you might know, the Halo 3: ODST achievements got leaked by modding site, Game-Tuts. It was welcomed with smiling Halo fans, including myself, as we were ready for anything pertaining to the game. The video has since been removed from Game-Tuts official Youtube page. Below is a link to the re-hosted video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5-Nml1deC0 So, as I men...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_rPLu0_JBQ&eurl=http://www.gruntsrus.com/news.php%3Freadmore%3D478&feature=player_embedded They seem pretty good, though if you're like me and playing in Firefight is going to be tough for you than some of the achievements will be hard. Some things to take note off: 1. Quite a lot of levels for an expansion. 2. About 7 Firefight levels 3. Engineers appear during...
I've been playing Fallout 3 slowly now. Its a game that put me off completely in the beginning as it was too...god...RPG-y for me. Well, I got back into it and have been playing it at a steady pace. Just managed to find Vault 112 just now (A Pain that was...God damned Raiders and Super Mutant Behemoth) and went to Tranquility Lance and God... Was a that a Life Changing Experience or what? Well,...
I've been reading all about it. 1UP go bought up. A Whole bunch of people, loads of dudes we all loved, gone instantly. Gamevideos: Terminated. EGM: Gone. This is, no doubt, sad news for all us gamers. Its sad news for those in the Game Journalism business, because, like it or not, 1UP was an integeral part of the game journalism industry. EGM was probably the best gaming magazine out there. Al...
So, I wasn't really expecting much for 2008. 2007 ended up brilliantly, with the release of games like Halo 3, Mass Effect, Call of Duty 4 and Bioshock etc. I usually don't go into a year expecting games, unless they have been delayed. So, 2008 was a pretty normal year. Of course, one by one, the Juggernauts were revealed. Gears of War 2, with its spectacular announcement by CliffyB. The announ...
