It seems, that only 10 percent of the PS2 games out now draw my attention. The PS2 controller is my least favorite of any consule. The PSP has 2 games I feel are worth playing, and the sad excuse for an anolog stick is just a d*ck tease. The PS3 isn't looking much better. Banishing the hardcore gamer by giving us a "multi media platform" instead of what we want, a gaming machine. The boomerang looks retarded, I thought it was a joke the first time I saw it. It looks exactly like the PS 1 and 2 controllers, only more round.... and inspired by Batman's favorite utility, the Batarang. C'mon, everyone already knows that the difference between Dual Shock 1 and 2, was the painted on "Dual Shock 2" on the bottom. Why keep the controller almost exactly the same for YEARS??? Cause they can continue using the same parts, so it's cheaper. Not cheaper for you and I, given the possible $500 dollar price tag. I see alot of Sony fan boys speculating the launch titles, I already can give a fair assesment on what I think will be on shelves. Nada 3, Bean Counter Extreme, and another Tekken that yet again.... is not worth my time when there's Dead or Alive to think about. Then, probably acouple years into it's life. They'll make Kingdom Hearts 3 and I'll be forced to buy a PS3. I'll beat the game, and then have a $500 dollar paper wieght. Especially since Final Fantasy might be on 360 from now on. Who knows, might happen.

I posted I was having trouble with King Kong on my 360, and a reporter for a gaming news site quoted me. Pretty cool. Check it out here: http://igo.ampednews.com/gamehub/1293/news/3168/

So many games leave me going, WTF??? For one reason or another. The first game this year to really press my buttons was Area 51. David D's voice, aliens, guns, it had the potential. Terrible dialogue, annoying enemies, frustraiting level design, and horrible multiplayer. What were they thinking??? Still they fooled a ton of 10 yr old gamers that didn't know any better. With so many good games out, why waste time with "Total Overdose: A Gunslingers Boring Story in Mexico". The loco moves, jumping from cars, and day of the dead shooting mini game things, it could have been sick. But, the cars are almost undriveable due to poor controls and nothing really works the way it's supposed too. The graphics are terrible. The story line generic. WHY MAKE THIS GAME? You can't tell me they made money off of it, or expected too. How dumb are they to believe that such a terribly made game could actually go somewhere? Dark Watch was a game that really freshened things up, a game I expected to suck, plesently surprised me. DW controls well, looks good, has killer enemies, bomb weapons, and a actually interesting and fresh story line. WTF!!! One of the main reasons Dark Watch was SOOO good was that it had all of the genre standard features (jumping, melee attacks, vehicles) and added to that. I hate it when games ignore the cool features other games have come up with. I never want to play a FPS again without melee attacks!!! I would have said that about jumping, but Perfect Dark Zero is awesome even though you can't jump. The dodge role is a suitable replacement to me. Perfect Dark Zero and Dark Watch are perfect examples of game designers starting with what works and making it their own. Half Life 2 is it's own breed of crazy, and makes every feature ever introduced into the FPS genre it's own with ease and smoothness. PDZ, DW, and HL2 are three reasons why gamers shouldn't be wasting their time on 50 Cent Bulletproof. To sum this rant up, why make a game if your not going to put everything you have into it. Lionhead studios does that on the dayly, and will always beat Eidos in sales for that reason. The End.

It seems to me EA puts out alot of games. Out of the few EA games I've played recently, only one of them was any good. Marvel Rise of the Imperfects makes me feel like they don't even have a quality control department. Most Wanted (the only recent EA release worth anything) is one of the best games ever, but it has little frame rate hang ups now and then that really suck. Where was quality control then? Now, EA keeps trying to buy everybody out. They got Westwood, and sure screwed that up. Haven't seen a new Command and Conquer in a damn long time, makes me worry EA silently cancelled my favorite game series. If EA doesn't shape up, I think it's time to stop buying.
