The Word on Fist of the North Star

Here are the brand new images of the Tecmo/ Koei Fist of the North Star game.  I’m glad to say that this looks pretty promising.  And the gameplay so far hasn’t been too disappointed either, though we haven’t seen much yet.  Here’s to seeing more soon!

A week with Zombies!!!! Part 3

The original Left 4 Dead may have been the defining zombie party game but the second blows its predecessor’s guts out and smears that zombie goo all over the wall like finger paint.  And like it’s predecessor you will shoot and explode zombies and other mutants with three other folks, all the while finding weapons [...]

A week with Zombies!!!! Part 2

While I did slightly enjoy World at War, I only bought the game for one reason, Nazi Zombies.  A mode unlocked by beating the single player campaign, Nazi Zombies, at least on the original and only, map included, crams you and up to three other friends/ strangers/ victims/ survivors in a house and are expected [...]

A week with Zombies!!!! Part 1

While I’ve already covered a week with games I’ve played on the Playstation 3, it’s best that this next topic be one of grave (snickers) importance!  Zombies are the greatest plague of man kind (next to mimes) and everyone should get some practice in killing them, zombies no mimes, before the great apocalypse happens and [...]

Under the Radar: Jurassic: The Hunted

Next to Nazis and Zombies, what else is there to shoot?  No, not homeless people, Dinosaurs!  And there’s been no greater game for shooting Dinosaurs than the Turok series.  Well, since the sequel to the series’ reboot has been canned, a little development group decided to take it upon themselves to quell our hunger to [...]

Under the Radar: The Wizard of Oz Beyond the Yellow Brick Road

Yet another DS game this time and this one was quite a surprise when I read about it a while ago and though I should share.  The game is actually already out States side thanks to XSeed games (love those guys) and takes the traditional story of Wizard of Oz and turns it into a [...]

The story so far in The Saboteur

As a general rule of thumb, one should never piss off an Irishman and then give him explosives; Nazis generally die as a result.  And that’s what happens when Sean Devlin decides to go postal on the Nazi occupation of France.  Evidently, when you kill a race car driver’s BFF, cheat him out of winning [...]

A week with the Playstation 3: Part 4

For the final part of my time spent with the Playstation 3 I’m gonna cover Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of the Patriots and Heavenly Sword.  Both eagerly anticipated and both excellent games.
Snake may be old hat now but Sons of the Patriots takes that beat up cap and makes it not only new, but [...]
