I Do Believe It's Time

I believe it's time for me to make a new header image for my profile. The only question is what theme should I follow. I was thinking a Dreamcast theme, only because the Sega Dreamcast is the single greatest creation in the history of mankind.

Must-Haves for PlayStation 3 Owners

I've conjured a list of games that PS3 owners must have in order to fully enjoy their consoles. This is not a list of exclusives, because that would be stupid. It's in no specific order, just what I thought of first I suppose.

Heavenly Sword
This game is essentially just God of War with boobs, epileptic hair, combos, and no blood. Though not being quite as brutal as God of War, it is every bit as good. Definitely a good title to own if you own a PS3.

Metal Gear Solid 4
This game is easily one of the best games ever created in the history of gaming. It towers over its predecessors and reinvents stealth/action gameplay. Not for those of you who just want to run and gun, as it is extremely heavy on the cut scenes.

Killzone 2
This is what you get when you cross Halo and Gears of War. It is the only FPS game that I've ever played where the cover system works nearly flawlessly and the action is both brutal and strategic. You are not a super human, so you can't run ahead of the group and slaughter your enemies.

Uncharted: Drake's Fortune
A true work of art; the game is so beautiful that it almost seems 3D on an HDTV. It crosses gameplay elements of Gears of War and Tomb Raider and comes out with a very fun puzzle/action game that will last you for a very long time. The voice acting is phenominal as well.

Dynasty Warriors 6
Whether you own an XBox 360 or a PS3, you have to own this game. It has nearly perfected the art of mega awesome hack n' slash action. It's one of the only games in existence that I can find where the entire time you are smashing square and triangle throughout maybe 15 maps with 45 different characters and it still manages to be super mega ultra awesome.

----------------------------LAZY LINE--------------------------------
I'm lazy and I don't feel like writing any more descriptions. From here on I'm just going to list the games.

LittleBigPlanet
The Darkness
Grand Theft Auto IV
Tekken 5: Dark Resurrection
Saints Row 2
Gran Turismo 5 Prologue
Flower
Ninja Gaiden Sigma
Siren: Blood Curse
Resistance: Fall of Man
Resistance 2
SOCOM: Confrontation
Ratchet & Clank: Future (all titles)
The Club (just kidding, this game blows)

Spore: First Impressions

I've seen all the videos, the dynamic animations are cool and everything but that doesn't make it fun. I made a giant hippo monster that could devour Satan and then lost interest because I got bored.

I saw what the game is going to be, you start off as a cell eating small cells, wow, that sounds amazing. Then you move on to a NATURE SIMULATOR! Does the fun train stop there? No, it keeps right on coming with an RTS GAME (which I have never liked either)! Then it moves into sandbox mode, which I have no idea about, it could be massive fun or it could be just you restarting the game with more choices.

All I know is I'm waiting for someone to prove to me that this won't just be a trip to Biology class.

Hitman: My Review

Hitman, in my opinion, was not very good. It proved to me that today's movie directors refuse to keep the details behind the video game's story line and just butcher everything that had to do with the game. It had nothing to do with the games except for the fact that 47 was in it and he was in one of the most repetitive places in all of the Hitman games, St. Petersburg. The action was cool, but not creative like in the video games. 47 is not Rambo, and he is not invincible like in this movie. 47 is a selfish and greedy assassin set out to kill his targets QUIETLY as long as he's paid well. In the movie, it made no difference if there was a civilian in the way, and he did not under any circumstances make his hits look like accidents. It was just another lame video game to film adaptation if you ask me. I strongly recommend that you wait for this one to come on DVD if you really feel like you need to see it.

An Old Game Added to My Collection

I just got kill.switch for the PS2 and the more I play it the more I realize how much gameplay Gears of War has taken from that game. I'm not saying it's a bad thing, but the mechanics of the two games are very much alike. The main difference is that using cover is a requirement in kill.switch, so if you don't use cover, you will be turned into swiss cheese extremely fast; then it's an option in Gears of War since you have armor that seems to be at least a foot in thickness, kind of like in Unreal Tournament 2003 with the Juggernaut dudes. I really hope that a sequel to kill.switch comes out, because the last one was fun but way too short.

The Orange Box is Awesome

I just got to play all the games on The Orange Box today, and all I can say is that they are all incredible. I haven't beaten any of them yet, but Portal is by far the most intriguing of the three new games. Although there isn't much story to it, Valve is saying it has tie-ins to Half-Life 2, so more than likely you will see something with the Portal gun in Episode Three. I haven't played Episode Two yet because every time I try to start it my computer tries to kill itself.

Then there's Team Fortress 2. I did not like Team Fortress Classic, it was too easy to get sniped out of nowhere and it was just unfair if you were playing against someone who had been playing the game since it came out almost ten years ago, which is about 90% of the players. Team Fortress 2, on the other hand, is different. The classes are more evenly made so no one class is overpowering; Valve did a great job making each class have a weak point. One thing that Valve should do is get a team to work on a show or comic or something for Team Fortress 2. If they did that, Team Fortress 2 would get even more attention than it is getting already. Think about it, the game already looks like a Pixar movie, so why not do something like that?
