In my weekend gaming hands

September 18, 2009 by Tony 1 Comment

Fire Emblem Shadow Dragon

Fire Emblem Shadow Dragon came via Gamefly’s sale and I just received word that Batman: Arkham Asylum is on its way. Unfortunately I will be out of town this weekend, so it will be strictly handheld gaming for me this weekend. What are you going to be playing?

Let Kurt Be Kurt

September 11, 2009 by Nat 1 Comment

It’s appears that the attorney for Courtney Love and two former Nirvana band members are calling for Kurt Cobain’s likeness in Guitar Hero 5 to be used only for his songs. They’re sighting a “breach of likeness.” After LOL’ing on that comment, I’d have to agree with them. It’s kind of creepy seeing Cobain sing “Saturday Night’s Alright for Fighting.”

Wii need help

September 9, 2009 by Tony Leave a Comment

So it would appear that our Wii has succumbed to the physical abuse my two year-old subjects it to on a daily basis. The Wii boots up to the home screen, but whenever I put a disc in, it draws the disc in, spins it for a split second, spits it partially out, draws it back in a second time and then spits the disc out completely.

According to the Nintendo trouble-shooting guide, my Wii needs to be repaired.

I’d rather not spend the seventy-five bucks on a repair, so I have a quick question to my fellow buttonmashers: Has this happened to your Wii? If so, were you able to fix it on your own?

Batman to Gotham: Arkham is Safe

September 7, 2009 by Nat 1 Comment

Just beat Batman Arkham Asylum. I’d do a 2 Minute Review, but I’ll wait for some other writers on the site to finish it. I know they will. We’ll probably have a roundtable about it. Be ready for heaps of praise.

We Are ODST

September 5, 2009 by Nat 2 Comments

With all the crap I spouted about the Halo being franchised being milked and stale a few days back, I’ll succumb to this awesomeness. Point. Halo. RSS readers come to the site or check the comments for the video.

No cheap game this week

Sorry guys. no cheap game this week. Simply too much going on. Seeing as how I’m about to have a two week hiatus from work I hope to actually get a few written so I have a buffer.
