GDC and other assorted things.

Firstly, let's just get this out of the way. Playstation MOVE. WTF?

For all the promising tech Sony believes their motion system will bring to the table, it's not excatly new is now? I've read extensive coverage for this thing, and the general consesus seems to be the following, for all the promising techinical advancements it could POSSIBLY bring, it'll most likely end up emulating the Wii experience, only in HD. Seriously, did Sony actually look at the thing?

Yes, okay. Natal seems to be an high class knock of of Sony's eye toy, so, why wouldn't Sony themselves want to emulate Nintendo and their mammoth success? Sony did mention during their presentation that they were going after the Wii's market share in terms of casual games, but, did they have to so obviously take ALL of their inspiration from the eye? It seems like they literally took the Wii remote and tweaked it's design and spec. In my opinion, Sony should be making an Eye-Toy based motion sensing controller and Microsoft should be ripping off the Wii remote.

But I digress.

After playing Mass Effect 2 to death, I picked up Bioshock2. I probably wont post a review about it, since, well, one could just read my review for the first game (that's if I even posted one for that O.o). Anyway, the game is good. It hasn't blown me away, but it's a solid blend of RPG elements with intense FPS action. And it's more than a time filler for......POKEMON HEART GOLD/SOUL SILVER!. Haha. Joking. But cerial for a second, I am pumped up for the (...final) release for these two remakes. Gold and Silver are pretty much the essestianal pokemoning experience, so, to play them in an updated fashion is a real treat.

What else? Dragon Age expansion and more Mass Effect 2? Yes please. Alan Wake AND Super Mario Galaxy 2 both on the same? OMG. I just went all up and nerdgasimed in my pants (it is old news, but still, I still get excited as that day approaches and my girlfriend remains unbeknowist that for a solid week after that date she'll go competetly unntoiced)
