Just a quick post showing the Gears of War 2 video that just came out. It highlights many of the new things to be coming in GOW2, including the ability to use Locusts as “human” shields, battles of epic scale, some of the new weapons and lots of Brumaks to fight. See the video after the jump!
Uwe Boll is known the world over as a destroyer of hopes and dreams when it comes to movies based on video games. He has directed, produced and butchered the movie versions of games such as: Dungeon Siege, Bloodrayne, House of the Dead, and Postal. He also has 4 more movies based on video games coming out in the next 2 years, including a movie based on the mind-blowing Far Cry. His destruction of videogame movie genre (if there really is one) is so complete, that whenever a new videogame movie is announced, all gamers cringe and hope that they don’t see involvement from Uwe Boll.
Today is Father’s Day in Germany and my wonderful wife and beautiful daughters got me a great gift. Unfortunately, the stores where we currently live are horrible, so they never have anything in stock but they ordered the gift for me online and it will be here next week.
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.
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.
