Video Game Update

January 9th, 2007

I figure it’s time for a quick update since I last wrote on the subject of video games. Firstly, due to events happening shortly after that post, I kind of stepped down my game playing a bit. I wanted to face things a bit head on and not just escape; plus I also didn’t want to ruin any game experience because of what happened. That being said, I began to get my mojo back over my trip back home, and I’m definitely getting fully back into it.

Gears of War FTW!

November 27th, 2006

So Yorke and I finished Gears of War tonight, and I can honestly say that it is the bomb. Seriously, this game has lived up to the hype entirely. I don’t think I’ve enjoyed a game as much as I have Gears in a while. Especially playing co-op. It is totally sweet. That is all.

Why are so many games coming out now?

October 31st, 2006

Ok, so last week I was bemoaning the sudden influx of games coming up. And I know I was slightly worried about the high concentration of RPG’s. Well, things have changed. Some of the games have dropped off the radar, but new ones have sprung up. I figured I’d give some kind of update for the gamers who read this: Read more…

Too Many Video Games?

October 23rd, 2006

I never thought I’d reach a time when I’d have too many games to play/finish. Nor did I ever expect to look at a list of released games coming up and think, “I’m doomed.” Then I saw this. I saw that and noticed I had two games on the list. Now both are fairly short, but I’m also stacking up RPG’s, which is never a good sign. With Children of Mana coming out next week, and Final Fantasy 3 shortly after that, I’m definitely going to be in for it.

Hmm…I’m definitely seeing the holidays as a good chance to catch up on my DS gaming. Yeah, the 360 is going to have to be staying home.

And there went my sleep schedule

October 23rd, 2006

A few nights ago, I downloaded Lumines off of XBox Live Arcade, and I already see a bad addiction forming. I’m a sucker for puzzle games, and any game that combines sweet puzzle action with funky techno music is going to get me.

I’ve already logged in a good bunch of hours and I’m really begining to get a feel for the game. A lot of people on the internet aren’t happy with the pay structure of the game (it is a lot for a live arcade game), but I’m already very happy with it. I think it helps that I have an HD TV, a kickin’ stereo system, and I didn’t own the game on PSP. Regardless. It’s pretty sweet.
