So I was browsing Kotaku like I usually do and came across this article. It seems that Bethesda are handing out these booklets at PAX. While the pictures on Kotaku are hard to read if you read further down on the comments someone gave a link to this site. I think my excitement for Fallout 3 is starting to get up there with my excitement for Dead Space. Oh yes, one last thing; If you are in immediate danger: You are beyond help, drop this book and run.

So as some of you know the expansion pack Fallen Star came out for Warhawk today and one of it's major features are jetpacks. I've been playing the game for the last hour or two and have got to say I like the jetpacks a lot. I mostly play Zones (capture the bases in other games) so being able to fly around and sneak up on an enemy base is very satisfying. I don't have a lot to say right now other then they're fun and a great add-on for the game.

So while waiting for the demo to The Force Unleashed to get through d/ling I popped Bad Company into my PS3 and finished up the single-player. Needless to say my impressions of the single-player hasn't changed. The AI (on both sides) is stupid and you shouldn't even have team mates sense they don't do jack shit. Although the story was somewhat entertaining, with the way it ended looks like there will be a Bad Company 2 or the story will be expanded on via DLC. So I've finally gotten a tas...

ROFL Soldier get up off of the floor and stop laughing! Pi Pi Pi! Those are just some of the memorial quotes from BC:R and I can assure you there more. Now I haven’t completed the story mode yet, the last level is a complete bitch, but I think I’ve played the game long enough to give a review. Let’s start with the story. From what I can tell, having only played a few levels of the original Bionic Commando and reading up on it, BC:R stays true to the original story while making it bett...

ROFL! Soldier quit laughing and get up off of the floor. One of the epic conversations I've come across so far in BC:R. For those of you who don't know BC:R is a remake of the NES Bionic Commando that's come out on XBox Live Arcade, PSN, and Direct2Drive. At first it was a little hard to get the swinging mechanic down but I've gotten the hang of it. The boss battles I've encountered are pretty cool and over all the game is fun if a bit frustrating. A full review will be up once I beat...

So today EA DICE released (for free) Conquest Mode for Battlefield: Bad Company. Over all it’s just like the conquest mode of every other BF game and that = awesome. Personally I think BC should have shipped with conquest instead of gold rush but that’s just me. No new maps but the devs did something to the old ones that make them seem new, I’m not sure what it is but it works. Anyway to those who have BF:BC I recommend firing up your 360 or PS3 and playing a round of Conquest.

I’m not sure if I’ve stated this in one of my previous blogs or not but I don’t really care about trophies. However today I have changed my mind. Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune received a patch today that allowed players to get trophies (gotta start a new game) and I freaking LOVE Uncharted. While this is more of an excuse for me to go back and play Uncharted I do want some trophies so I don’t look like a complete nub. I won’t be doing this with a lot of games unless I like them. I’d go back and p...

Not sure how many of you are excited about the soon to be released Bionic Commando: Rearmed or the upcoming Bionic Commando but I know I am. For those of you who don't know Rearmed is a remake of the classic NES game that's going to be released on XBLA (August 13) and PSN (August 14). No news on a release date for Bionic Commando (a sequel to the original NES game). Anyway, on the official Bionic Commando site they have a comic up (link) that takes place between the original BC and the upcomin...

As I said in my first impression blog of Soul Calibur IV I haven’t played a fighting game in a long time. SCIV was my first venture into the fighting genre in years and I have to say I’m happy I got this game. Fighting games that I was hesitant to buy at first that are coming out in the future (MK vs DCU, Street Fighter IV, and Tekken 6) I’m now willing to buy without hesitation. This blog isn’t about my new found love of the fighting genre though, so let’s get into the review. The co...
