  Where did my ratings go?

  Is it jut me or did the redesign erase all of the ratings to games except the last 10. When I click on "See All" I only see my 10 latest ratings. Now that would truly suck since I think I had around 800 games rated.....

  The comparison.

  After spending a day with ReArmed I felt I needed to go back and see this just to compare everything from music to color schemes and its really stunning how accurate the remake it yet so completely fresh. Check it out and refresh your memories!

  Bionic Commando ReArmed and Fable II Pub Games.

  Both of them are absolutely fantastic and probably, together with Doom, the 2 best Live Arcade games yet to be released. And released on the same day!! Lets start with Bionic Commando. You all know the story of this game by now. All the hype, the bionic commando podcasts, Ben Judd, all the delay, the fantastic development studio Grin. It was hard to believe it was actually lying there on Live Arcade today, finally released. Well..it was well worth the wait.

  

  Its a super feaithful remix of the original where all the fun is preserved and all the challenge is preserved but where all the frustration is gone. I had totally forgotten how fun it is to not being able to jump. The grapple mechanic is fantastic. Art direction is fantastic aswell. Writing is superfunny and alot of small touches has been implemented to make it feel nostalgic yet superfresh. The soundtrack, which I bought months ago from iTunes is still, when I have already listened to it for months, one of the best ever and since you get all this for 800 MS points...its the bargain of a lifetime. I payed more for the soundtrack alone...Add to that, fantastic multiplayer modes AND Co-Op. Do NOT miss out on this one, tho my guess is you are already playing it. The only downside here is that the achievements are mad hard. I will probably never go above 3 or 4 out of 12. I like my XBLA achievements to be about 10 easy and 2 hard, not the other way around.

  

  Fable II Pub Games are, if you didnt know already, small gamble based pub games that remind you of things like roulette and blackjack but made super interesting by making unique rules for everything. The thing with the pubgames is that the money you win here can then later be imported into Fable II when you start playing that in October. This means I will spend a ridiculous amount of time with these games because I really want to be rich when I jump into Fable. Its good then, that all of the games are superinteresting and really addicting. Simple, yes, but very fun. Another thing worth noticing here is the atmosphere. Sure its just some simple pub games but in the background you can hear glasses, people talking and laughing in cla$$ic fantasty tavern fashion and on top of that you have this fantastic fable-like, fairytale tavern music that can only come from Lionhead Studios. You pick a temporary hero to store gold (and items which will also be included in the full game when you win them here!) and start gambling away.

  Both of these games needs to be downloaded right now ! Actually, even if you dont plan to play Fable II, you need to download the Pub games because they are still fun even if you cant use the gold.

  I know I am way late, but R.I.P Bernie Mac

  Wow, I know I am waaay late with these news but Ive been sick over the weekend and havent kept up with the news at all. But wow, what a tragedy. I might not have been the biggest fan of his acting but Ive seen a great deal of movies with him and he was both witty and funny and like it or not, he was a very memorable actor. And as a big moviegeek I mourn his loss. Rest in peace man.

  In-sane!!

  When you thought videogame characters could not get any prettier. And when you thought Heavy Rain was just a dream you had..new pictures are released!. Holy shiet. And I have no doubts this looks scary realistic in motion, just like that old "dream" we all had of this game a while back.

  

  

  Makes you wonder if theres really a game wrapped around this technology.

  Braid is melting my brain

  The later levels in todays XBLA super duper artsy, super mario homage release, Braid, is melting my brain. The time twisting puzzles here are awesomely mindbending and I gotta go get some food before attempting to solve them again.

  Its been way to long since I listened to John Carmack.

  I was just gonna go to bed but I ran into this incredible intreview with John Carmack from QuakeCon and it was such a long time since I heard an interview of this lenght with this man that I had almost forgotten how a huuuge huuuuuge genious he is. Well I guess not forgotten but safely locked away in my brain how big of a genious he is ( I think I started to listen to Carmack when I was just a kid). Well I am now officially reminded, I watched this 15 minute video in awe of everything he had to say.

  

  He speaks about stuff in ways nobody else dares, about the industry and about technology, like he has always done and he does it like only he can. He can almost be compared to Will Wright in some sense. They are both such huge genious minds that when they talk during interviews its with 10 times more depth than the average person and I cannot stress enough how much I admire what this man has done. I have always claimed and will always continue to claim that the gaming industry would still be uncivilized and underdeveloped if it wasnt for John Carmack and I can still rant on about why to anyone who dares to speak against me on that matter.

  So i decided I needed to share this with you all before turning the computer off for the night. I guess it wasnt my intention to start ranting on about my deep respect for the man, but hey, I cant help it. And yes, the video has REALLY low sound volume. I had to turn my volume all the way up and still I could barely hear anything. But despite that this interview gave me so much interesting insight I recommend it from the bottom of my gaming heart. I honestly want to find some of his old speeches or interviews on DVD. It has to be out there somewhere!

  *EDIT* Found this awesome archive. I guess ill start there by loading some of them onto my iPod. Im not sure but I think I might actually have missed his 2007 Keynote.

  And for anyone not knowing exacly who this man is (SHAME ON YOU, GO FIND ANOTHER HOBBY!), heres his page on Giant Bomb. And it troubles me that someone was faster than me with filling in his description.

  Soul Calibur 4, first impressions.

  Soul Calibur 4 (x360) arrived today and Ive spent a good 4 or so hours playing it. So far its been a terrific experience..at least offline. Offline its probably hands down one of the best fighters Ive played. All the expectations Ive had are fulfilled. Arcade, story and the Tower battles are all challenging and very rewarding. The fighting engine itself is truly a very refined version of the SC fighting engine. One could say its finally been perfected.

  

  The game looks drop dead gorgeous (I am totally in AWE at the characterdesigns and the polycount on the models, simply insane) and music feels very "Soul Cailbur". One could argue that the charactermodels in this game can be compared to those in Metal Gear Solid 4 in terms of visual fidelity and design but I wont make that comparison since the games are so different . The character cuztomisation is very deep and the possibilites when it comes to physical looks and clothing seems pretty much limitless. Overall there is so much to unlock and so much to level that you constantly feel like you are accomplishing something even if you get your ass handed to you by The Dark Apprentice (he IS overpowered when the CPU is playing him).

  

  Online is a different story tho. The first game I got into lagged so bad the game was jumping forward and I instantly racked up my first ranked loss. After that I kept hitting quick play with the response "Could no longer be joined, game full" every time for at least 5 minutes. The same message over and over and over everytime I hit ranked quickplay (pretty much the Street Fighter II Turbo HF problem that it had in the beginning but 10 times worse). If I tried to create a game of my own nobody joined for that same amount of time and it was back to hitting quick play over and over again. When I finally get into another game I get matched up with someone whos probably been playing SC every day for his entire life and I get my ass handed to me again. After that its back to hitting quick play over and over again. Online seems very choppy and the matchmaking seems a bit unstable. But I will be presistent and keep trying because I do want to take my custom made characters online, because when it worked and when I won my first games it was soo much fun.

  

  I will spend alot of time playing SC4. I consider myself a big enough Soul Calibur purist to feel I both want and have to play this game to completion and get some online rankings going. I realized my Taki has been seriously degrading since I played SC2 back in the day and Ive been playing around with both custom and other characters to find an alternative. I just hope the online experience will improve over time because this is the first game since the release of Gears of War that I feel I want to spend some serious Xbox Live time on.

  A fantastic guitar performance..

  ..that anyone who has ever heard the original Bionic Commando soundtrack needs to listen to. No wait, anyone who has ever tried to learn videogame tunes on your electric guitar needs to listen to. Chris Kline, a fantastic guitar virtuoso with a guitar signed by Steve Vai himself, performs "Bionic Jam" live. The song can be found on iTunes and will be included in the full version of Bionic Commando 3D. This really blows my mind. He does it so good. Really nails it!

  He is also known as Vertex Guy and his website can be found @ www.vertexguy.com

  Let Jenna Jameson play with your Wii?

  I just happened to stumble on some awesome / tragic (depending on how you see it) gaming news that I just had to share. It seems Jenna Jameson is deeply involved with a big Wii title currently being developed under the "Club Jenna" brand. So this pretty much mean we´ll see a "Nintendo approved" stamp on a 3rd party porn game this fall but we still have Wii friend codes so those who will be playing" Queen of Porn" games cant send you a friendsrequest so you can play multiplayer. Bummer..

  In any case. It seems to me that a game developed for a legendary porn star to break into the gaming market feels very misplaced on this console. On the other hand this might end up having the best use for a Wiimote yet, you know, the use that you all have secretly been thinking about ever since Mario Party did the "shake the sodabottle" minigame...

  Maybe itagaki will be involved with the breastphysics of the game? One can only hope..

  A cure for the cold.

  So like every year the summer cold has now struck me, right in the end of my vacation and like every year it sucks. And it dosent really help that the temperature outside is like waay past 30 C. As usual the only cure for it is nasal spray & a fine bottle of Grants whiskey (and yes my whiskey shelf is also the shelf for some of my DVD boxes). Best cure out there folks!

  Giant Bomb is totally rad

  Giant Bomb.com has been the only thing on my mind lately. That site is seriously going to be awsome and I urge everyone to check it out. The potential is really limitless and give it some time and it will become the biggest and greatest source of knowledge of anything gaming related ever. The user response has been mad and everyone from everywhere are adding pictures, comments, descriptions and information about everything that has ever existed surrounding games. The knowledge of the united gaming world are poured into this one giant encyclopedia and it makes me really excited to be a part of. Its so much fun to contribute to the whole by diggin up your favorite stuff and adding everything you know about it. Lately Ive been putting some time into Dungeon Keeper and it seems Im the only one doing it so soon enough I have created the whole Dungeon Keeper gamespace by myself.

  

  Ive started to add characters and been digging around for screenshots everywhere. But theres constantly more stuff I want to do and when Im not on the site Im always thinking about more stuff I could do there. I have to start adding locations like Plunder Island or Duskwood or add more demons from the Dungeon Keeper games. Maybe write up a big description for Quake III Arena. The way forums are handled are also really neat where you can start threads about anything when you look it up. The layout as a whole is really fresh. There has never been anything like Giant Bomb before when it comes to games and again, the amount of information that will be in here a couple of years down the line is just completely and utterly mindblowing. Also, it was really fun to listen to the latest Bombcast and hear just how excited the guys are about the launch. Feels great!

  In other (not so important news) I bought "Go Go Break! Steady!" today for XBLA and im really enjoying it. The blending of Rythm games into other genres are really something that has become a big deal lately and the puzzle/rythm combo here works really good. I guess the Break dance music can become very annoying at times but gameplaywise it really works. I guess the artstyl3 is kinda neat too. Also decided to start playing through some older good games lately so I blew through Mass Effect a second time and I have now started on The Darkness. Mass Effect is totally worth playing through several times. I feel there are sooo many choices in that game that can be made differfently every time.

  E3 - My favorite games of the show

  

  Alright. So E3 is officially over and I can finally spend those ~8 hours a day NOT watching live coverage. Anyways, its time to roundup my picks for what really stood out to me and what I cant wait to play this fall 08 / spring 09. Of course there were alot of really nice games there and many more than those that I list here deserves attention but these are the absolute best that I will preorder or have already preordered and that I am itching to play so bad I really want them tomorrow. So in no particular order, lets go!

  -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Mortal Kombat vs DC Universe

  

  I have said it before but lets say it again. I LOVE Mortal Kombat. Its one of my alltime favorite franchises and even when I didnt know anything about this upcoming game I was pumped to play it and pumped to know more about it. After E3 I have seen alot of actual fighting going on. I have seen enough characters and I have seen Scorpions no.1 fatality being used. I know they have alot of polish to put on the game before shipping it but I could take it as it is right now. The game looks awesome. Fighting looks so extremly brutal and these metagames that are put in looks like so much fun to play. The Spirit of MK is most certainly still in there and Scorpion looks like he is still my good old Scorpion and thats all I really need. Has the potential to become my alltime favorite Fighting game. Very high hopes for this one! And yea, Ed Boon confirmed he will be recording the voice for Scorpion again. Everything is well with the world!

  -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Fable 2

  

  I am probably the most hardcore Peter Molyneux fan you can find. I have followed him and his way of gamedesign like a noble servant since Dungeon Keeper and I still hold this man as the most interesting person you can listen to and one of the greatest genious minds in the industry. I felt so glad that he recieved a round of applauds when taking the stage on the GS Live coverage. Fable 2 looks better and better for everytime I see it. The polish is really getting to a superb level by now. The game is from a design standpoint one of the most beautiful games I have laid eyes on and I am completely mindblown by all the features that are put into the game. Thinking over what is possible to do in this game it looks like a game I can very well be playing years and years from now and still having fun. I love the open, simulated, huge world, the great story, the character development and the smooth take on combat. I am now fully convinced that the dog will be awesome and I really CANT WAIT to start exploring this stunning gaming world and really sink my soul into this masterpiece. In the meantime I have both Black & White 2 and Dungeon Keeper installed on my PC to keep me afloat until then.

  -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Gears of War 2

  

  When Gears 1 was released I was pretty sure the Unreal 3 engine was pushed to the max. I see now that wasnt the case. The improvements made the the engine for Gears 2 are astounding. The game looks so good its once again up there competing with the likes of MGS4 for the best looking game ever. Cliff Bleszinski must be the most interviewed man on E3. I dont know how many interviews I have seen with him over the last couple of days but hey, its always a pleasure to hear what he has to say so I wont complain. Gears 2 is really shaping up to be so badass that the word "badass" isnt enough anymore. By the time Epic is done with this one it will be one of the most brutal actiongames money can buy. The demo they showed at E3 was enough for me to completely fall in love with Gears all over again. Before E3 i knew it was going to be good since it was the sequel to one of my alltime favorite games but seeing what they showed at E3 was really the match that ignited the bomb in me. Yea, Gears 2 will rock my world just like the first one did without feeling old or repeated. They are really taking the game to new heights on every level.

  -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Resistance 2

  

  I cant really say I liked the first Resistance. It was an OK shooter but nothing more. It felt kinda uninspired and grey. So my interest in Resistance 2 has been mild to say the least. But E3 really opened my eyes for this title. R2 really sold me on the scale. Thats really whats its all about for me here. Its the insane scale. From the hundreds of crazed hybrids running at you to the enormous flagships hovering over San Fransisco to the feeling of a whole country beeing "harvested" by huge war machines taken straight from War of the Worlds. But the one that really made me go "Alright, im SOLD" was the fight against the Cloverfield monster that they demoed during the press conference. That was one of the biggest "Wow" moments Ive had lately. The feeling and scale of that battle completely made me jump out of my chair. Getting picked up by the monster and thrown through a frikkin glassed in walkway onwards to another building to continue the fight. Wow.

  E3 - Nintendo + Sony gut reactions

  

  Its kinda funny. The Nintendo and Sony press conferences were kinda direct opposites of each other. Nintendo decided to just lay back and rest on their sales advantage. They spent alot of time just talking about how much they have sold and about how much their approach to gaming succeeds and spreads over the sexes and ages. They continue to show lifesyl3 videos and pictures (wich im soo tired of now. I swear if I see one more payed C actor wave around with a Wiimote and smile im going to....yeah..you know what) and continue to spread the message that has been Nintendo since the Wii launch. The whole thing is kinda worn out by now and it feels like I dont wanna hear the same thing yet again. The whole presentation felt kinda uninspired and they didnt really show anything that really caught my interest. Animal Crossing I can live without and I can see no use for the room microphone whatsoever.

  

  A DS version of GTA cannot possibly be anything worth spending money on and I dont think composing music with your Wiimotes is nearly as fun as they tried to make it look. To top it off this horrible soccermom on speed was on stage for the most of the show. I cannot remember her name (probably because I WANTED to forget her) but she was AWFUL to listen to. She was disgusting to both listen and look at totally overdoing both bodylanguage and voice to the extent I wanted to turn it off. She was so obviously faking her whole "OMG IM SOO EXCITED I LOVE PUPPIES" charade it really became painful to watch. I am a big Nintendo fanboy but somehow I just feel that Nintendo feels kinda uninteresting to me at the moment. I guess a DS version of Spore has the potential of become neat tho so Ill keep my eyes peeled for that.

  

  On the other hand we have Sony who put alot into making the Press Conference feel interesting and fresh. Loads of TV screens and a superb lightshow combined with cool music and awesome transistions. The stage felt fresh and the decision to make the statistics part of the presentation into a Little Big Planet level was a masterful move on their part. They showed off alot of games in between wich kept it moving along nicely and most of it was OK to listen to. The game that stealed she show for me was Resistance 2. The gameplay footage of the huge boss that they started the show with was reaaaally impressive. I was literally rocking back and fourth in my chair at how cool that bossfight seemed. Ted Price went on stage and talked a bit about "Scale" and I can only agree. What impresses me the most with Resistance 2 is the scale of everything, from huge monsters to many monsters. Sony made a decent impression and I have faith in them for the coming year.

  

  GoW3 confirmed for real, Infamous shows great potential and I will have to play through R&C Future sometime soon so that I can play "Quest for Booty" when it comes out. I dont know if I will ever use Sonys OR Microsofts movie download service but I guess its neat that its there. The thought of finally breaking and buying a PSP also crossed my mind on several occasions during the press conference. Its kinda wierd that I dont have one yet seeing as I always buy every console out there.

  E3 - Microsoft gut reactions + Too Human demo

  

  Alright, first off, the Microsoft Press Conference. Ill have to say, it was a really strong showing of Microsofts future. I am very impressed with the press conference as a whole (maybe except the overload of gamespot just at the start of it and not showing the live performance of Lips, but thats on the gamespot side of things.) Fallout 3 looked really good, Im sure they have good ways to go on that game but from what I saw it looked like a nice blend of Oblivion and Fallout that cant go wrong. Fable 2 looked even more awesome than last time I saw it and even more so than before its one of my top titles for this year. Peter Molyneux didnt say as much as I thought he would but maybe thats for the best when all the Molyneux haters start their fires. The game looked way more finished than the last time I saw it with more layers of polish to everything. I almost jumped off my chair when Peter said "oh and one more thing, its out in October" before exiting the stage like it was nothing. I didnt expect the game to come out before christmas to be honest with you, so awesome news!

  

  The new dashborad looks insanely smooth and the integration with the Avatars looked phenomenal. I can really see the success of those already. Microsoft has taken alot from Nintendo but that only makes me happy. Sure, the new layout will take some getting used to but I have no doubts it will feel extremely nice after a while. On top of this the announcement that you can convert Rock band 1 disc songs to Rock band 2 was great news aswell as the news of the big Media Marketplace blowout. A couple of very strong XBLA titles was announced AND, the superbig one, FF13 comes to Xbox 360. I honestly couldnt believe what I was hearing. I never in my wildest dreams thought Microsoft could actually buy Final Fantasy 13. I cant even begin to imagine how much money Microsoft must have thrown to Square Enix for this one. I thought this was a PS3 secure title. This is really huge news and it really took me by surprise like the last reveal on a Press Conference should do.

  

  In other news I downloaded and played the Too Human demo today. I have been pretty sceptic about the whole game. The long development cycle and the mediocre character and leveldesign. The game havent looked like much fun on videos but let me tell you, its a WHOLE other experience to actually be playing it. The Hack N Slash gameplay feels supertight once you get used to the control and the little I saw of the story in the demo actually engaged me and made me want to see more. The seamless transitions between enviroments without any loads or pauses whatsoever really created a flow in the gameplay that few games can do this well.

  

  The amount of character customization and weapons seems limitless and its very fun to play around with. The lootmaniac in me awakened after I found my first rare drop and it didnt die out until the demo was over. Graphics are mediocre sometimes and plain out stunning other times and music felt very epic and well composed. The strongest impression the game left on me was that it is a perfect example of a game that should be played and not seen. Its plays extremely good and it was a very nice surprise to see both the gameplay and story hold up. Characters were interesting and voiceacting was very solid. The game felt overall pretty immersive with plenty of chatter between the soldiers by your side and alot of atmospheric effects. Im not sure if I will actually pick it up but its no longer impossible that it might actually happen.

  Whats looping in my head..

  Ever since I heard this song in the beginning of the summer when randomly watching MTV one day its been stuck in my head and I cant stop listening to it. It seems impossible to grow tired of this song and the more I listen to it the more I want it in Rock Band. This Electropop duo from England has come from nowhere and sprinted straight into my music heart. I Just had to spread the awesomeness! Because not only is the song awesome, the style of the drummer is priceless in the video.

  Extreme Awesomeness.

  I just had my first can of "Burn" energy drink and realizing it might be the most extreme energydrink Ive ever had I had to go look up their homepage, and wow. One of the most awesome webites out there. Entering this page is really the perfect display of how extreme this energy drink is. Not only is it perfect marketing but its funny as hell to surf around on. The obvious humor on the page is nothing short of awesome. They are forcing EXTREME down your throat so hard you can feel it, and yea, its awesome. I cant stop laughing. The more time you spend on the page the more extreme it gets. Everyone should check it out, even if you hate extreme energy drinks!
