TRADE-INS

The other day I went to gamestation to trade some games in, I think it was assassin’s creed, the godfather 2, and about three other games. Other than godfather 2 these are quite old games but still pretty good (especially assassin’s creed), they offered me £30 for all 5. £12 for godfather 2, £7.50 for assassin’s creed and the rest for the other games. I thought this was a rip-off but need the money, I’m definitely not going to sell my body to some lonely men… Continue

My Mass Effect 2 Teaser Thoughts

Fans of MA probably noticed the new teaser on the internet (if not, check it out now, or this may spoil it for you) and most believe the teaser when it mentions the main character is KIA (not the car, Killed In Action) i have my own theory on this albeit its a little far fetched but then again so is killing of the main character of the first game in a linear series.

The Computer system which provides the viewers with the information is controlled by a black ops group of the alliance… Continue

School Days

Well let's see ... exams and video games, not a good mix.

Worst of all exams have been keeping me away from my beloved playr.

But enough of that it's half term, leaving me at home to roam around empire city over and over on the infamous demo...what?...My tv's not working!

ARRGGHH! My frustration immense I kicked the tv and took a deep breath.

I guessed I would have to settle for Team Fortress 2 in the meantime only to discover that it took not only my pc, but my whole… Continue

Next Metal Gear game

For anyone who hasn't seen the website here it is:

http://www.konami.jp/kojima_pro/next/index.html

I've been checking it since it launched and so far there has been a countdown to yesterday. I just checked again and there is now rain in the field and a countdown from 100 hours.

If you wait a few minutes there is the usual flash of "5" but now there is an "E" flashing briefly.

What do you think this means for the future of Metal Gear which is rumoured to… Continue

Midget Hunter's Rant

Being honest, this is the 4th instalment of Midget Hunter’s Rant, yet I’m already out of things to write about, South Park has gone over one hundred and eighty episodes and still come up with ideas, the Simpsons have done over 300! I did my research, searched the web and found nothing to get angry about, until I thought of something that is constantly said on the forum:

EXCLUSIVES

In a stand-off between Xbox and ps3, exclusives to one console… Continue

rumour has it sony have bought atari, and blocked the game from coming out on the xbox 360.

Insane Online Ramblings (XBox Live)

Today I did something new. I sent a message over XBox Live to a guy I don't know. I talked to him as if we were childhood friends although I don't know anything about him, other than his Gamertag(which will be changed slightly to protect the innocent). I'm not sure if he was going along with it or if he did have a weird friend but this is what happenned:

the angry toe(me):Hey man! How are you?

XaSNIPERShisX:good and u?

the angry toe(me):Great. We haven't spoken for… Continue

OVER-EGO GAME MANIACS

the other day, when i was waiting for my game of call of duty: world at war, i decided to look at the person with the most kills, his name was something like yardy bob and his bio i could not help but laugh at, it was something like, "YOU CANNOT TEST MY SKILLZ, TO GET TO ME YOU HAVE TO GO THROUGH MY APPRENTACES: .................., ..................., and ..............".

i thought this was ridiculous and could not help but think… Continue

why no love for computer game shows ?

There have only been a few decent tv shows that reviewed games and looked at the industry in detail, years ago games master which was the 1st ever uk tv show about computer games was the best around being on at prime time around 6pm - 7 pm on CH4.

The next good games tv show was bits which was funny and they did actually know what there were talking about but only lasted 11 episodes (worth watching for emily booth alone haha) again on ch4 which was a good thing the downfall was it… Continue

FAN BOYS

haters, self-harmers, b*stards, there are many names for a fan boy, why they are on this planet, i dont know, know one knows. these fanboys either love the console they have too much or hate the other console so much that they just say mindless garbage about it.

"XBOX 360 IS SH*T! PS3 RULEZ!!!" & "XBOX 360 IS THE BEST!!! IT OWNS ALL CONSOLES!" are examples of what a fan boy might say. they may just say that the console they own is the best… Continue

Bionic Commando - King Of The Swingers

The Multiplayer demo of this game is immense.

Spider Man with guns. What a combo.

Sniping people in mid-air is a treat.

I never usually like the 3rd Person Shooters but this one just makes you feel part of the game like a first person shooter.

The Music with the game rivals Metal Gear and Halo. It makes you feel like a hero XD.

Hopefully there will be more game modes like capture the flag or team deathmatch.

16 Maps is a fantastic amount of multiplayer maps and 50+… Continue
