I had a new user register for the site recently, which is always a plus, but oddly, they never commented or made any other contributions to the site. I did a quick google search on them and guess what popped up

How far do we want videogames to go?

Posted on April 20th, 2008 in Video Games by Sergeant JoKer

Day by day, video games continue to innovate and surprise us. Gone are the days when it was mind blowing to be able to save your game (even though some companies still can’t get the saving games part right, at least on consoles). We are entering the age of video games, where the sky is the limit. The question is how high do we really want to go?

Yet another reason why it doesn’t pay to be a screaming fanboy…

For quite awhile, PS3 fanboys have been dancing their little dance, rubbing it in XBOX 360 owners faces that Unreal Tournament 3 (UT3) would look better on PS3 and it would also support mods(new, user created content) that, once again, the XBOX 360 wouldn’t.

Well, maybe they were doing their little dance a little too soon…

    I started playing Condemned 2: Bloodshot with some friends last night and, so far, it is just as good as the first.

Are videogames getting boring???

Posted on April 14th, 2008 in Video Games by Sergeant JoKer

     I caught this story by Eoco  over at  OpinionDebug about how the author feels that videogames are not inspiring and that the author is starting to become bored with them.  In some ways, I can agree that some games are getting boring, just as anything will in the world when the market becomes so saturated with great things.  For the most part, all areas of life become boring once it gets really mainstream.  People rarely get excited about cars anymore, unless it is something ground break and innovative or the reintroduction of a classic.  Gaming is ending up the same way.  It has become a big money industry, as opposed to a niche that mostly nerds played in years ago.

Power Loader from Aliens closer to reality

Saw this over on Make and CWWang and made me think about the Power Loader Ripley uses in Aliens. After clicking some of the other links that reference the article and seeing some of the cool things that they are doing, it sure looks like the Power Loader is closer to reality.

Here is my first post, yet again.  As of now, this site is going to be about whatever interests me.
