I’m gonna strike while the iron is hot, and finally review a NEW game. I purchased Batman: Arkham Asylum last night at about 8pm-ish. I played it until about 5am I was so hooked. After a few hours of rest, I wrapped Arkham Asylum up. I will post my full review of this great game [...]

Click Here to watch the conference so you can follow along: Introduced to the song “One Vision” by Queen (Better than Beatles, in my not-so-humble opinion) Jack Tretton: Making some ackward jokes about the PSP Go! being leaked early. WHOOPSIE! Not really that great of an announcement anyways… “We are industry leaders at Playstation and [...]

The premise of the game is that you are a virtually annonymous engineer, Isaac Clarke (named after science fiction writers Isaac Asimov and Arthur C. Clarke), of a space ship crew who has intercepted a distress call from an off-world mining station. You and your crew crash land in the docking bay of the mining station USG Ishimura, a “Planet Cracker”, only to find that it is derilict, save for a swarm of Necromorphs, which are probably the best-designed alien monstrosities since the original Alien design by H.R. Giger. And, like every other space shooter since Doom, it’s your job to survive long enough to find either safety, or a way off the infested outpost.

The main story revolves around a couple of ill-fated lovers named Welkin Gunther and Alicia Melchiott. Both are drafted members of Squad 7, a militia in the Dutch-like country of Gallian. While Gunther’s father was a General in EWI (Europan War 1), his orphaned son, Welkin, is (shamefully) the stereo-typical Japanese hero: A pacifist who, both out of love for his friends and loyalty to his homeland, commandeers a machine to fight an evil empire. (Another reason I hate anime…)

Create a Character (Avatar) The create an Avatar options in Home are actually really extensive. For the most part, you can create a very close (but never perfect) “3D You” in which to interact with others. You can change not only body shape, but also details like the broadness of your nose and chin, the [...]

A game as painful to play as it is to look at The story is original (minus the cliche “hard-core marines killing demons to save the world” angle). The theme of going back through hellish-twists on time-periods within the city is pretty awesome in itself, and I like to monster designs, but the whole thing [...]

No, seriously… Killing untold legions of hobos, mimes, clowns, the mentally ill, the wealthy, and orange-humping robots with lawn-and-garden tools was way better than hanging out with my extended family who never stop asking me “when are you getting married?” Sometimes I wish I could pack around a shovel or something…

LittleBigPlanet has taken video games back to their bare roots. I’m talking the simple run and jump mechanics of the first Super Mario Brothers game that most of us have enjoyed as kids. There’s no button combinations to do special moves, there’s no complex riddles or puzzles, there’s no CGI cutscenes to bore you to death, there’s no ‘amazing graphics’ to overshadow mediocre gameplay. Aside from the REALLY ‘Old School’ (ala Space Invaders and PacMan) LittleBigPlanet is gaming at its purest. And because of its simplicity, this is one of the few games that is easily approachable by anyone.
