Clearing Things Up

First off this isn't your usual gaming blog. Over the weekend I was playing online on the PS3 and to my knowledge I believe this is were this situation came from but if not I want to address it here as well. On Saturday I receive what I can only assume and take as what we call hate mail. The subject of the matter was my screen name, slaves or caim_slaves.

I just want to go on the record to say I have never been or ever will be racists. My name was not created to offend anyone or to make fun of things that have happened wwwwaaayyyy in the past that I have nothing to do with. If it does offend anyone let me take this time to say I am truely sorry and its not meant to be that way. The name Slaves is the short terminology that is used when referring to my band Slaves to Addiction and the combination of caim_slaves is simply my favorite video game character (Drakengard) and my band.

So again if I have offend anyone with my name I am truely sorry. It was never meant to be taken like that. So if the person that sent the mail to me is here on GS I hope you read this and understand where I'm coming from.

Other than that Call of Duty World at War is cool. Gave it a 8. Nothing special the online mode is ok. I still haven't played anything that matches resistance 2's online.

I started playing Chrono Cross saturday. Its turning out to be pretty good. I've only invested about 4 hours into it so far but i'm liking it.

I got some new comics if anyone cares to know. I order the entire Marvel Secret Wars from 1984. I can't wait to get them in. I also got a really kick ass movie Friday you have to check out.

This movie is seriously the gorest and funnest movie i have seen in my entire life. Plot: In the near future the Tokyo Police Corp. is locked in a great battle with enhanced super humans called Engineers. the Engineers can bio-fuse wounds with weapons such as a guy having a chainsaw as an arm. The daughter of the police chief's right hand man is looking for her fathers killer. She mercilessly battles the engineers to get to the man that killed her father going as far as tracking them down into a weird and I mean WEIRD fetish club.

Well thats about it here. Until next time my friends......Later

Feeling Kind of Good Today So.......

Well first off how is everyone. Good I hope.

I finished Mercenaries 2 today and I have to say I'm kind of really starting to doubt GS and their reviews. I had alot of fun with this game. I did notice the glitches that are mentioned in GS's review but after you download the patch they seem to disappear. The games playes alot like the first Mercenaries with some small differences. The story is very minimal and not really important when it comes to this game. Look to finish the games MAIN story mode in about 4 or 5 hours. I scored it a 8.0

Also I finished Civilation Revolution a few days ago. Its a fun but very short game. It has a decent replay value and some cool DLC on the Playstation Network. You can look to finish this game, depending on how you play, anywhere from 2 to 5 hours. Domination is the easiest and fastest way to win. I gave it a 8.5

Last on today's list. I've kind of been wanting to write a review for a game and I haven't really been sure what game to write about so I finally said I'll pick something easy and try it out. So I wrote about Super Street Fighter 2 turbo HD remix. You can check it out here. Its my first one so be nice, LOL. Let me know what you think, I know its nothing special. Also if there is anything you would like me to review let me know.

Other than that its been that same ol' stuff. Well until next time....Later.

Gaming updates for Feb and the Future

Hears a little update for the kids out there in video game land.

I finished Fallout 3 a few weeks back.

Awsome game loved every minute of it. I gave it a 9.5. Still working on getting all the trophies so I may go back and play this again at some point.

I downloaded Savage Moon

Its a pretty cool RTS game for $10 and has Trophy support for those of you that likes to collect those. I do. It kind of reminds me of Star Ship Troops, if you've watched that.

Also I down loaded the Resident Evil 5 demo

This was a great demo, mainly because of the Co-op feature it has. I had the honor of playing with my good friend Zathic you can read more about our adventure on his blog.

Again I played the Killzone 2 demo. I won't go into that since I posted previously about that.

I plan on starting Drakengard 2 again tomorrow for the 3rd and final ending. Its going to be great. I just wish more people would give the Drakengard series a go. The story is unbelievable. Also in the Now Playing section of my page I have listed the games I plan on playing or finishing.

Other than that I picked up Far Cry 2 and Sid Meier's Civilation Revolution last week. I think after this summer I'm not going to buy anymore games until Final Fantasy 13 comes out. I have more than enough to hold me over.

Well thats it for now, until next time....Later.

Hands on with Killzone 2

So I actaully got my hands on the beta demo for Killzone 2 today. I have to say the games is way better than the first one. From the start of the demo you are thrown into a game that is a non stop action packed theatrical event that makes you feel like you are in a movie. The visuals and sound are great. I really could not believe how much stuff was going on around me and there wasn't any frame rate lag. As far as the controls, I didn't really feel any type of delay in the way the game responded to what you did like I have read on some reviews. I really can't wait for this game to hit the shelves this month.

Games, Movies, Life what more do you want?

Well here's a little update for you guys and gals in gaming land. I finished Mirrors Edge a few week back. It was cool not great but good. I gave it a 7.5, I downloaded the content for Lair got the new control set up and dragons. I like the analoge flying better than the six-axis. Thet two new dragons are awsome. As far as the game goes: if you have a PS3 and like dragons and mid-evil themes get this game. I know the reviews are bad for it but the game is exciting and beautiful. The story is good, it has plot twists, conflict and has some sad parts. I gave it an 8.0. I also started play Dragon Ball Z: Infinte World and I stopped playing it. Reason: the game isn't that good. I just can't get past the mini games you HAVE to do. I want to fight, I want to yell KAME HAME HHHHHAAAA not chase Bubble the monkey around on King Ki's planet. So I have given up on this game until I have completed every other game I have and have nothing else to do.

So other than that I have been living my life in the Wastes of Fall Out 3 and what a life it is. This game is amazing. Although it does freeze up alot after you play 4 or more hours at a time and its not just the PS3 version the 360 version is the same way if not worse because it also freezes in VATS which I haven't come across yet and I'm almost done with the game. I highly recommend getting the guide for this game simply because of how much stuff is lying out in the waste land waiting for you, ei: Alien space craft. oh yeah there's one out there.

I'm hoping to start the last ending for Drakengard soon like now, LOL but with Killzone 2, Resident Evil 5, Lord of the Rings Conquest, and my newly aquired copy of Bio Shock I'm kind of scratching my head and wondering which one I should play first. Choices choices choices.

Other than that I'm looking forward for season 8 for DBZ coming out in Feb. I just recently watched Jumper. Its a decent movie. I liked the way the teleporting or "jumping" looks in the movie. I wish i could do that. I also watched Pine Apple Express. If you haven't seen this yet go now and get it. I laughed my, well you know off. Seth Rogen, James Franco, and Danny McBride are hilarious.

Well thats it my friends, tune in next time when I tell you the tale of Mutt McGee. Until then, Later.

A New Year Blog

Well this is my first blog of 09. Congrats to me. Don't really have any updated information for you. Nothing has really happened so far this year. I've put a plan in place for games i would like to finish in January and Febuary. Starting with finishing Mirrors Edge, and the downloaded content for Lair. Then I'll be starting Dragon Ball Z: Infinite World and then it's the Third and final ending of Drakengard 2. I'm not sure what will be after those but hey its a start.

Not much other than that going on here. I trade my Elder Scrolls: Oblivion in just so I could get the Game of the Year version with the two expansions. I know it sounds dumb but I like collecting games and I got it for $12 after my trade in, so I don't think it was that bad.

I hope everyones Holidays were good. Mine was. My son's (yes I have one if you didn't know) birthday is Wednesday so Happy Birthday to him. He'll be 3 years old. I got him his first gaming system. Its a V-Tech V-smile. I may consider getting him a Wii if he likes the V-smile. Some my think 3 is to young to be gaming but I got my first console when I was 3, the Atari. ET was my first game. Its a surpise I'm still gaming after that game, LOL.

Well thats it here. Hope all is well and until next time, Later.

Update and Wish You a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays

Whats up everyone. Just thought I drop a blog about whats going on and take the time to wish all of my friends here (you guys) a Happy Holidays.

First I finally finished all my shopping today, thank goodness. I really don't care for holiday shopping, traffic and crowds. While I was out I pick up something for myself. I got the Metal Gear Solid Collection (1-3) for PS2 and Resident Evil 1 for Game Cube. So more games for the collection.

Also I got the new Game Informer mag today and I found something very funny or very scary, you decide. There is a page for Killzone 2 and its saying the game is coming out for PS3, XBox 360, and PC!!!! I pretty sure its a misprint but I found it funny.

I'm finally getting a day off tomorrow so I'll will certainly be online and gaming all day so if anyone want to do some online gaming let me know.

Thats about it here. Later.

The Network and My Home

I finally got on the Playstation Network today and WOW, I've been missing out on a lot of stuff. I checked out the PS store and downloaded some exspansions and Demos. I also checked out Home. Its pretty cool. I never got to play pool or bowling because of all the people in line. But I checked out everything and met some new people and ran away from some, lol. I also sent out some friends request to those of you that I knew.

My PSN name is caim_slaves. Feel free to add me.

They were showing the first 8 minutes of the new Resident Evil Degeneration movie. Its cool can wait to get the DVD.

If anyone is interested in playing online let me know. I have Haze, Resistance 1 and 2, GTA4 and Mercenaries 2. I think they are the only ones with online play. I'll have to check.

Thats about it. I'm still playing Mercenaries 2 and Prince of Persia.

Hope all is well. Have a safe and Happy Holidays. Later.

Sony Phones HOME, lol, and more games

So Sony HOME just went live BETA thursday and I was wondering if anyone has had a chance to get on it. It seems pretty interesting and once more is added to it I'm sure it will become a really great social networking tool for gamers. Maybe I'll see some of you there once I get online with it. What are your thoughts on HOME????

In other news I got another early gift Devil May Cry 4 and Mercenaries 2. So the gaming list contiues to grow.
