I have strong connections to Deadpool the game for reasons I can’t get into but believe me; I know this game inside and out including all the stuff that had to be removed for legal reasons. Besides Batman I don’t really follow any other non-manga comic and with the Deadpool coming early next year I thought this could use some hype. Deadpool the game is getting a re-release on November 17 on PS4 and Xbox One. It seems like an odd choice considering all the other games being re-released recently. With the movie around the corner though I guess they…
If I had one guilty pleasure when it came to video games it would most likely have to be rhythm games. I never had much talent in the ways of music so I never had much to do with the musical arts, opting to hit things really hard instead. When Rockband and the like first started coming out I found them intriguing but I’m an 80’s man myself so sometimes song choices were thin. Then DJ Hero came out and I enjoyed that far more than I should have… or at least until DJ Hero 2 changed up the formula…
So September wasn’t that great for free PSN games and October isn’t looking much better. They also didn’t do that voting thing again but I suppose they said it wasn’t going to happen every month, I just didn’t expect them to crap out so soon on it. I figured they would at least test it out for a couple of months before taking a break. A bleaker trend though seems to be the focus on small time indie games over large titles which seem to pop up on the free game list less and less now and days. It was…
Overlord is a series I have always had some interest in and some time ago I was happy to hear they had a new Overlord coming soon. If you don’t know already Overlord was like Pikmin except you sacrifice countless brain dead followers to do your bidding… on second though it is Pikmin but it doesn’t pretend to be anything other than cruel and unusual. However I then learned it was not an Overlord 3 but some kind of top down spin off; so overlord without the minions. It reminds me a lot of the Lara Croft spin off games…
Mad Max meets Ghost in the shell, the future is bleak and everyone thought it would be a good idea to make their brains digital. When will people learn that making your brain a computer is a bad thing? Most people don’t play the story anyways, hell many of my friends have no idea what the story to Black Ops even is with multiplayer and all. Does it really matter to anyone anymore? Probably not but some people may find some interest in this new trailer since the game is close to release in November. The message that came with…
Senran Kagura 2: Deep Crimson on the 3DS is a very different kind of game. I actually had an interesting conversation with a GameStop employee when I pre-ordered it. He mentioned how he also pre-ordered the game but he typically didn’t tell people because he didn’t want people to think he was ‘into’ that sort of thing. I wasn’t entirely sure what to make of this; yes the game is clearly designed for boys much younger than I by captivating them with voluptuous women (or girls as some arguments go), I don’t dispute that. The point I made to the…
Buy inFAMOUS: Second Son Here Infamous: Second Son is still good. Yes I know this review is later than most my reviews by a lot but screw it. Infamous has always been a good series but Second Son actually used what the PS4 had and made actual improvements with it. Visually it was a very stunning game when it first came out, especially compared to the previous Infamous games which were akin to rubbing dirt in your eyes. Of course now everyone has picked up on the high end graphics craze and it doesn’t seem so special anymore. Not to…
So September was not a great month for the free PSN games, either that or I just can’t play side scroller games anymore. I had some mild fun with Grow Home, I started playing Twisted Metal and immediately stopped playing and the rest I played for a while and eventually got bored and wandered off to greener pastures. My personal favorite of the month has to be Teslagrad, or what I have been calling Teslagard in all my videos because apparently I’m going blind. Besides the fact it is rather short and the story is choppy I loved this game.…
The full title Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex- First Assault Online, holy crap that’s a mouth full, is going into closed Beta this October and you can try to be part of it. A free to play and a first person shooter based on one of the best anime ever is apparently in the works and may actually draw me back to PC gaming again. Something I thought I was done with when I stopped beta testing free to plays years ago. Apparently it will include eight of the characters with highly customizable gear and the ability to…
Known as Gravity Rush state side it was well known when it first came out. So much so the main character Kat even made it as a DLC character in the PlayStation All Star game. I was unable to play it at the time since it was PS Vita only but how the tide has turned! Now the game is getting a re-master for the PS4 that will include all of the DLC as well. That will be out next February… hopefully that also includes this country. At the same time though they also announced the new Gravity Rush 2,…
