F.3.A.R. Part 2

Unfortunately, FEAR 3 doesn't really keep up the intensity that I described in my previous post. As the game goes on, it becomes apparent that FEAR 3 is nothing more than a hodgepodge of modern gaming and horror movie cliches.

F.3.A.R.

Just started F.E.A.R. 3 (or F3AR in their marketing 1337 speak), and I must say, the campaign is INTENSE. And that is just the first mission.

X-Men Destiny

I'll get the oncoming flood of updates kicked off with X-Men Destiny while it is still fresh in my mind. X-Men Destiny is a brawler from Too Human developer Silicon Knights, which, after the infamous development cycle of Too Human, is probably only still in business because of federal funding from the Canadian government. Destiny shares some similarities with Too Human, but it isn't nearly as slow as Silicon' Knights earlier effort.

Blog Revival: Jade Harder

What's up folks! It certainly has been a while since you have seen ANY activity here, I know. (I wonder if this will still get pulled to Facebook... we will see... ).

Well, I have that "itch" again, so you will yet again be subjected to video game related musings and reviews. 2011 was a GREAT year for gaming, and 2012 looks like it will be just as good, if not BETTER, so no better time than the present to revamp this hear jaded blog, don'tcha think? (Now with less GREEN!)

Coming up first will be Skyrim (of course) and Dead Space 2, so stay tuned!

Metal Gear Solid 4

Metal Gear Solid 4is supposed to be one of the smokin guns of PS3 exclusives, in a time where almost zero games are (or remain) platform exclusive. So many games are cross-platform or "timed" exclusives (how I hate the corporate BS that goes on behind the scenes here) now that you aren't really missing out on a whole lot by only owning one console (and I'm talking either PS3 or 360 here, of course). Myself being a PS3 fan, though I own and like both consoles, I was really hoping to be like 'well, but we have THIS', referring to MGS4 of course. And, MGS4 did sell a whole hell of a lot of PS3's here and in Japan.

However, I think MGS4 is an embarrassment to games.

Red Faction: Guerilla

Yes, I know I have been slacking on this here collection of words. Work has been pretty damn busy recently as I help usher in a new batch of blue people, and well, I'm too lazy to actually update at home. But anyway, here's some thoughts on/review of Red Faction: Guerilla.

Happy Video Games Day

Apparently, July 8th is Video Games Day. Didn't know that did you? Neither did I. No idea how this was started, or who even started it, but that certainly won't keep me from celebrating...
