Left 4 Dead

Played Left 4 Dead campaign mode in the 4-player co-op mode, hilarious and so intense. Player reactions quickly become a series of frantic yells. Here are a list of the top 5 things I found myself screaming over and over again as we finished the first two levels.

1. AHHHHHH!!
2. TONGUE!!
3. HUNTER!!
4. Tank! Tank!! TANK AHHHH AHHHHHHH
5. WHY ARE WE ON FIRE!?!

Get a new tv for your set up

Now that so many games are out you might want to finally upgrade your tv. I for one am seriously thinking about this since its damn near impossible to read much of anything on ole gigantor we have in our living room. It might have been why I noticed the next ad at work the other day.



699 is a pretty good deal especially when you get a venereal diseased vcr for FREE

New voice of batman

Usually I don't care that much about Batman. It seems everytime you bring up the subject everyone needs to whip their dick out and twirl it around and tell you about their favorite batman and why and blah blah blah. Although there is one development that is pretty fucking amazing the voice of batman in the animated series is this guy



fuck they should just destroy that stupid robot thing that is playing batman in the movies right now and make this guy batman. Then maybe at least one person can actually remember that the movie was supposed to be about batman and there were other people in it besides the joker.

Too many fucking games aaaaaand Game of the Year?

By Dale

Well we are midway through November and that means games. Lots of Games. Giant fucking mountains dumping delicious gold on your head games. Its a little overwhelming the grade a quality that is being released right now. In time for the holiday season there is a list of A - list material that quite frankly gives me a chubby. I'll just run through what I have been playing lately and give you my impression of the game.



COD World at War (beta) - I was going to skip this game all together. I mean I have played the absolute shit out of the COD 4 so I didn't really think I needed more of something similar. I was wrong. This game is awesome. I was only able to play a few levels but my impressions of the over all game are pretty dern good indeed. The graphics are more detailed and realistic than the past and the broken train yard level is tits out awesome times. With the better graphics though there is one problem that I never knew would bug me. The levels seem a bit too busy and cluttered. I understand that this doesn't seem like a bad thing but more often than not by the time I took it all in some jag ass had stepped up and stabbed me from behind.
On the other hand one of the things that I thought would be a detriment actually wasn't. I thought that the weapons would just be low tech garbage full of recoil and un fun times. I was wrong the replacing of air strike and helicopter with mortar strikes and attack dogs is pretty spectacular. The sound alone is a definite tension builder the ghostly wailing of incoming shells and the snarling and barking of distant beasts is terrifying and gives you nothing but feelings of impending doom. I passed on buying this and decided to try out Quantum of Solace instead but there is a part of me that yearns for the flame thrower that I still need to use.

While I'm on it lets just jump into bond.



Quantum of Solace - First off this is not the best game since Golden Eye because anyone who is going to pretend that Agent Under Fire was not better than Golden Eye is a vicious ignorant savage that I immediately want to swear about for 10 years. Also Rogue Agent is also better than Golden Eye so its even more of a moot point. What isn't a moot point though is how good the juggernaut 007 family has actually become. This title holds its own against its gigantic lineage. The multi player weapon customization mode is awesome. I actually enjoy saving up money to unlock gadgets sights and guns alot more than unlocking them by leveling up because you can get what you want sooner. This game is on the same engine as COD 4 and COD World at War and is actually developed by Treyarch the name responsible for COD WAW. It begs you to question though with two very big titles being realeased within two weeks of each other under the same roof did one suffer? Did they maybe forgo some attention in Bond in favor of maximizing COD well maybe. The character skins are a little week and I was ever so hoping I could be Baron Samedy instead of that tool in a bike helmet. I do admit the cover system that I grew to detest in Gears of War is very lovely in this title and the sticking to walls to peer around corners is well not too sticky like it is in gears of war. The transition from first person to third person is actually quite painless as one might think. I mentioned before that the levels in COD WAW were to cluttered and a bit confusing and that is not the case here Its the perfect blend of detail and simplicity and the rooftop map is quite delicious. Now if only all the lamerz on the internet would stop using shot guns we would be getting somewhere.



Fable II - Well it's more of the great fable goodness that you grew and loved in the first one. Buuut since you can do most of the customization that made the first one such a shit hot deal in other games its not as mind bending or pants shitting. Although this game is very good I found myself not really able to get to into it. I think the main problem with this game is its too fucking easy. You never really have to try. Whether your pissing around in the world buying houses or bar tending to make over 100,000 in one go (yeah it happened) or whether you are spelunking in the caves to fill up some flask with magic special water to plant some acorn of life to bless crops the game just feels like one big sleep walk. You might call it hand holding or kiddie but I really felt the game would offer me no challenge and that if I kept playing it I would just make my way through it. Since I have been playing so many RPG's lately it might have made my palate a little too rich for this sort of thing buut after about 10 hours I traded this game in.

WoW - It's still the same game and I am still playing it. It's enjoyable but not to the extreme a perfectly commendable waste of time. I have no played Wraith of the Litch King actually I have not even played Burning Crusade yet because my Orc Warrior is only level 45. I did finally get a full set of plate mail. I also made some macros that make my guy dance and sing the lyrics from that old MC Hammer cartoon.

As Far as game of the year is concerned I do not think it is Fallout 3, I do not think it is Fable 2 actually I don't think it is Gears of War 2. I would like to remind everyone that a certain game came out in the past that has swallowed hours and hours of my passion and its definitly not Grand Theft Auto 4. Actually it's exactly what GTA4 was not. Its that beautiful driving game built on the Criterion engine. Its updates and Downloadable Content were free unlike many of the paid map packs and goodies other titles welched you of your hard earned dollars with. I am talking about Mother Fucking Burnout Paradise City. It came out last January but with the bikes pack and the upcoming Island pack it managed to stay awesome and current. This is my vote for game of the year. Even though EA is fallen from grace in my eyes with the Spore debacle and the fact that there is no Warhammer demo and I don't really agree with the way they handle pretty much anything they did good here. Even though their threat of banning people from games as well as their online forums is egregious burnout gives me a boner. Even though their press release telling people to guess the last digit of their cd code was something out of bizzaro land I still think that Burnout is better than boobies.
