Look at these and tell me you aren’t looking forward to this game. That’s right, you can’t. I mean wow, Capcom has outdone themselves with these screens. If this is any indication of the amount of effort being lovingly poured into this game then this is going to be another great year for gaming. Bionic Commando was already high on my hype list, but it’s now officially on the top. If the game is as awesome as these screenshots imply than think I can overlook the dreads.
Boom!
Watch this video. You may start drooling. I have to say, this game looked above average a few months ago, however, after you watch this you’ll probably agree, this game now looks amazing. Adam Sessler from G4TV’s X-Play got to talk directly to LucasArts’ Jeff Gullett about the upcoming terrain deformation extravaganza Fracture. I just hope you don’t run out of grenades as much as most games.
Boom!
That’s right, BioWare has finally finished their sci-fi opus Mass Effect, and it looks as though they’re hankering for some Chinese. It’s really no surprise they would go back to Jade Empire with a sequel, it was a major critical success [IGN.com]. The game was, however, less successful in it’s actual sales, nowhere near the numbers Mass Effect has been getting. Hopefully, after the success of Mass Effect, BioWare will be able to pull in a larger crowd of gamers for it’s ancient dynasty action/rpg.

Everyone knows the best place to play the Nintendo DS is in the bathroom while you rest and think about your day. Who needs a newspaper when you can blast aliens and save princesses? Not me. Why do you think the DS is the most popular system around? It’s not because of the Pictochat, I can tell you that much.
Anyway, let’s get to that countdown thing already. The Top Ten Toilet Titles! I had to use the word “titles” because games doesn’t start with the letter “t” and that’s no good. So here it goes.

If your like me you’ve been waiting for this game since it showed up at e3 this year and won most of the big awards. This game didn’t disappoint. I’ve had a hard time just starting this review because I didn’t know where to start.
COD2 was a great release title for the 360 from the guys at Infinity Ward. It of course was another in the long line of WW2 shooters and quite possibly the best. Unfortunately Activision went elsewhere for COD3 and it suffered. The reason Infinity Ward didn’t do COD3 you may ask? Because they were working on COD4.

Can’t wait for Beowolf to see the new J.J. Abrams trailer for his super secret new movie Cloverfield? Well, now you don’t have to. Someone has graciously captured and posted the new trailer on YouTube for our viewing pleasure. I’m sure it has Mr. Abrams blessing, right? Well, we all know the internet can’t keep a secret. Oh well.
If you want to see it ahead of time and don’t want to pay $10 for a ticket just to see Angelina Jolie as a mostly nude CG character then this might be what you’re looking for. The sound from the trailer is really bad, but at least the video is crappy too. Maybe you can find a better version on the net. If you can, let me know and I’ll replace this one.
Boom!
Update: Apple has released the full trailer online in all it’s HD glory here.
If you didn’t already know, there’s a writer’s strike going on right now and it’s ruining all of our favorite shows. One of the biggest of those shows being 24, which has been “indefinitely postponed” and as of right now, will not be airing on it’s scheduled season start date in January. Worse yet is it may not even come back until 2009. Let’s hope this is not the case.
So, in the meantime, the good folks over at CollegeHumor.com have you covered. They’ve put together a video of an “unaired” pilot episode of 24 from the year 1994. As you can guess, laughter ensues. Check it out and enjoy, I did.
Boom!
Capcom’s upcoming Bionic Commando is looking very promising. The basic grappling hook gameplay from Lost Planet is overhauled to give the player much more abilities including grappling an enemy. You can also use the grappling hook to swing from point to point around the city, a la spiderman. I’m looking forward to this game very much.
Boom!
Developers of COD4, Infinity Ward, have leaked a couple of new features for the multi-player mode. First the highest level you can get to in your performance level ups will be 65. That should keep some of you busy for at least 2 weeks right. We really like this level up system just from the beta testing. It was roughly a week to week and a half that we reached the max level up for the beta which was 16. So it should take a little to reach 65. Also they talked about prestige mode. This is for people who reach level 65 max out the level up. Any in prestige mode will first get a “really cool icon so everyone knows your in prestige mode”. But you will lose all your extras gained and you will start over from scratch. This could help you to continuously play the multi- player for a long time. Whether or not this will make it better we’ll see but we can’t wait for this game to drop.
