  • E3 Previews

    I’m so jealous of everyone heading to E3! I’m sure I’ll be going too, once I become a famous games journalist, but for now, I’m just looking on enviously at all the new games and announcements of upcoming games.

    I’m pretty excited about LEGO Rock Band, even though a lot of people are complaining that it’s slapping the LEGO name on just another Rock Band game, or slapping the Rock Band name on just another LEGO game. To me, this is a bit like complaining that mint chocolate chip ice cream has MINT and CHOCOLATE CHIPS.

    Here’s the trailer, so you can see for yourself.

  • GTA IV Lost and the DamnedNew game site AngryGamers (warning, some NSFW language) has a preview of the new content for the latest Grand Theft Auto series. They say:

    GTA IV was one of the best games of 2008 and is getting some nice DLC on February 17th, well for Xbox 360 owners anyway. This is the Microsoft hyped Xbox 360 exclusive content that was promised back before GTA IV was even released.

    But after a slew of new games (AngryGamers mentions Gears of War 2, I thought more along the lines of the newish sandbox game, Spore, and the latest WoW expansion, Wrath of the Lich King), is anyone still playing GTA? Are you? Are you excited for the new GTA content, or too busy with your new games to care?

    Read the rest of their thoughts at GTA IV Lost and the Damned Preview – Game previews, 360 previews, PS3 previews, Wii preview – Angry-Gamers.net.

    New content for GTA4 will be available on February 17th, 2009.

  • I saw this today on Gears of War 2 Tops Sales Chart on PlayGirlz:

    Nintendo might be sitting pretty at the top in the console wars, but when it comes to software, Microsoft’s got the lead. The economic crisis seems to be hitting everyone but the world of video games. Anxious shoppers tossed games into their carts like they were Halloween candy. And the results are in.

    *
    Gears of War 2 (Epic, Xbox 360) – 1.56 million units
    *
    Call of Duty: World at War (Treyarch, Xbox 360) – 1.41 million units
    *
    Wii Play (Nintendo, Wii) – 796,000 units
    *
    Wii Fit (Nintendo, Wii) – 697,000 units
    *
    Mario Kart Wii (Nintendo, Wii) – 637,000 units

    Call of Duty: World at War (Treyarch, PS3) – 597,000 units

    Guitar Hero World Tour (Vicarious Visions, Wii) – 475,000 units
    *
    Left 4 Dead (Valve, Xbox 360) – 410,000 units
    *
    Resistance 2 (Insomniac, PS3) – 385,000 units
    *
    Wii Music (Nintendo, Wii) – 297,000 units

    The Xbox 360 managed to get 3 out of the 10 spots, including the number 1 and 2 positions, thanks to Gears of War 2 and Call of Duty. But Nintendo dominated in numbers once again, picking up half the slots. And that leaves only 2 slots for the PS3, with Call of Duty and Resistance 2. Alas, Resistance 2 was the only PS3 exclusive to make it on the list. Sorry, Sony.

    I was pleased about this because someone who lives in my house works for Epic on GoW2 so it’s nice to see his work rewarded.

    Games in Nintendo Wii

    Games in nintendo wii is really great for everyone. Everyone now is acquiring the console because of it’s gameplay. Surprising a great percentage of it is the middle age people. Because of it’s gameplay the player gets to exercise while playing. Take for example it’s tennis game. Where the player will actually swing the controller to hit the ball. Actually silly to see at times, but even doctors have been recommending it. Players or people have a chance to exercise in their living room. You can play golf and tennis without the sun and the high membership fee of clubs. And also, you can play the hit tv game dancing with the stars in nintendo wii. You can dance by shaking the controller, coordination and timing is the factor in the game. Nintendo wii introduce a very unique gameplay, the controller which has a sensor, that the charcter that you controlling in the screen imitates your hand movements in the screen. It’s like in the tennis game, the swing of the player depends on how you swing your controller. In the boxing game, you move your controller to dodge the opponents punches, it enhances your reflexes. After a game other player also works out a sweat. Beats other console of just pushing the Y button or the triangle button really fast, only the fingers gets an exercise. Although the graphics is inferior compare to pS3 and xbox 360, ingenuity and inventive we have to give nintendo wii a two thumbs up.

  • Taking Care of Xbox360

    Xbox 360, Playstation 3 and NintendoWii. 3 newest gaming platform of our time. Provides great graphics and great gameplay. Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 took the lead and eventually because of xbox live, on line play, xbox 360 is taking the best seller. But giving great graphics and great gameplay came with a price. Xbox 360 is known to always breaks down. Overheat, game freezes that lead to the dreaded 3 red lights. Xbox 360 or the falcon edition as everyone knows it has defects but can be avoided. First place your console in a well ventilated place. Make sure the back of the console, where the exhaust air comes out, has a lot of space to breath. Second make sure your console has a stable power supply. The power cord is not inserted in an octopus type power switch, so the power of the console is not interrupted. When replacing games make sure place the disc is in a clean holding. Try not to touch the lower part of the disc, fingerprints make disc harder to read. Although you can clean it with a small cotton. Another way, to prevent it for overheating, is to install another fan in your xbox. My xbox sometimes sounds like an industrial fan ready to take off but it does the trick it never overheats. Lastly, try to have time outs breaks every 1 1/2 hours. Even you install a lot of exhaust fan, the graphics the console is producing takes a lot of toll to the console.

    I am a huge fan of skating games and Tony Hawks skating series is one of my favorites. The latest installment in this series was Project 8 which was not that good but the previous installments like Underground and Underground 2 were superb. Another game like Tony Hawk is Skate by EA which was released last year and it was nice. The second installment of Skate, Skate 2 is going to be released on Jan 2009 and judging by the screen shots it is looking way better than the previous skate. That is too late. However, EA has announced that a version of Skate is going to be released on Wii and DS on Nov 09 2008. The Wii version will feature unique control scheme and players will be able to perform tricks using the Wii remote or Balance board. Only time will tell what it has in store for the gamers.

  • More reliable Xbox 360s are starting to trickle onto the market, but the fallout from the “red rings of death” remains. Now they’re facing a class action lawsuit in California.

    Kotaku (via Daily Games News) is reporting that the lawsuit was filed under California’s consumer protection statutes, and alleges that Microsoft knew that the system would suffer a 50 percent failure rate, but concealed the knowledge to compete with the Nintendo Wii and the PlayStation 3. The suit cites articles from sources such as VentureBeat and Yahoo! to support its claims.

    If Microsoft loses the suit, they will potentially have to implement a refund program in California as well as surrender profits relating to Xbox 360 sales. But even if they win, it doesn’t look like Microsoft will be allowed to forget about the unreliability of the Xbox 360 anytime soon.

  • Fifa 09

    There are many football games out there but, two of them are most famous. First one is Fifa and the other is Pro Evolution Soccer. Fifa is owned by EA Sports and Konami is the developer of PES. PES used to be better than Fifa few years ago. But, now Fifa has improved a lot in the recent titles. One major reason for this is that EA is a rich company and it has a larger fan base while on the other hand Konami is not such a big company. The latest sequel of Fifa, Fifa 09, was released few days ago and it has already sold 1.2 million copies in Europe during its first week. Fifa was released on all the nextgen consoles with Xbox 360 and PS3 sharing the same version of the game, while Wii version offers different gameplay and graphics based on its, since it has different type of controllers and it is not capable of playing next generation graphics. One major feature in Fifa 09 is the Adidas Live session. Addidas Live Session allows you to update the status of your player and team based on the real world. This means that if Cristiano Ronaldo is not performing well in the real world then his status will also drop in the game. That sounds interesting. So, if you are a major football fan then I would suggest that you definitely play this game.

  • I am a big fan of all the nintendo gaming consoles. I first started playing games when I was kid on a nintendo gaming console named Terminator. Thats a strange name. Well, i grew up playing nintendo games and i still like playing games on my Wii console. Here is a news for Nintendo gamers like me. The news is that nintendo has announced that it will not allow the transfer of points between DS and Wii. The point system on Wii which was called Wii Points will be changed to Nintendo Points and it will work on both Wii and the DS. But, you won’t be able to transfer points between these consoles. This means that if you will buy a card of 200 Nintendo Points. You won’t be able to spend 100 points on Wii and 100 on DS. You will have to make sure on which system are you going to spend those points before buying them. So, make a wise decision when you buy the points if you own both the consoles.

    2GB SD card for WII

    Satoru Iwata from Nintendo has announced that they will put in the market a storage card for WII. If you have the Nintendo WII, you should know that the 512MB internal memory is not enough to store datas. For example, the simple fact to save 1 song or 1 partition for the game Guitar Hero, you will need more and less between 30MB and 100MB so it will let us around 400MB and i am not going to tell you about saving datas from other games.
    To solve this problem, a SD card of 2GB will be available, moreover the card will allow the player to load, to play and to download games directly on this storage. It will be very useful for players who consume a lot of data spaces.
