Giantbomb has the new trailer posted for Puzzle Quest 2. As long as they don’t make it like Galactrix, I’ll be thrilled. Interesting take on the adventuring this time around.

Spelunky is a Game You Should Play.
Kotkau has got some screenies up and a little more detail for the XBLA version of the title. This is a Day One purchase for me.

The Blur beta started today on the 360, and yours truly was able to score a code. Let me say this: Think Burnout Paradise + licensed cars + Mario Kart – annoying powerup randomness + the leveling mechanic of Call of Duty = the best online racing experience I’ve ever had. I knew this just [...]

Earlier today, I mentioned that Bizarre Creations is going crazy giving away beta keys to many websites for their new game, Blur. Let me be a little more descriptive about the game. Think Call of Duty 4 meets Project Gotham Racing meets Burnout Paradise.

It has a top-notch presentaiton and the audio and visuals are outstanding. I’m not too deep into the story, but I hear it gets convoluted really fast.
I’ve put about 45 minutes into this game.

When a game can produce “the smile” (parents of young kids will know what I mean by “the smile”), it is okay in my book.
A lot of Mario Kart was played this weekend. It was played by kids 5 years old and 65 years old. Everyone had a great time. They [...]
