  XM and now HD?!?

  My gaming time has but cut down BIG TIME. Besides my primary job of the radio show in raleigh I have also been doing a show on XM 21 Mon-Fri. Now it looks like the XM dealio has brought forth yet another job. Some thing to do with Clear Channel's HD channels. Not really sure what , if anything, will come of this potential gig. Hopefully more money. And probally even less time to play games. Why do I suddenly feel like an adult with actual responsibilites?!?

  Soon I may be forced to sneak my Xbox 360 in the studio and play during commercial stop sets.

  Iron man

  How do I say this? Well. Ummm, ugh and eck.

  This game could actually rival Superman returns when it comes to the frustration factor. I only have my self to blame though. I should have known better. Thank God I get my games for free. I feel bad for kid who spends his allowance money on this game, or for the parent who spends their hard earned money on it. But once again i SHOULD have known better, and for the following reasons...

  A: Superhero games tend to suck.

  B: Movie games tend to suck.

  Lets do the math.

  Suck + Suck = Really SUCKS!!!

  The controls could be the main problem. Or it could be the freakish change in difficulty that occurs midway though the game. At one point I wondered if someone had changed the difficulty setting on me as a joke. People can be cruel and so can this game.

  Hey Sega! A long, long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, Someone invented this wonderful thing called checkpoints. THE LEGEND OF ZELDA HAD A BETTER SAVE SYSTEM THEN THIS GAME!!!

  I have enough problems in my life. Games are suppose to take you out of the real world and into another. Games are suppose to be fun. This ends up being this games biggest failure. For a game that had so much obvious potential, its simply a shame that that potential was never reached, or even worse was pushed aside and ignored, all in the name of profit.

  Nba Ballers: Chosen one

  This game is simply god awful. It needs to die. And die NOW. The controls are a nightmare. The fun factor is almost near ZERO. I refuse to put more time into this sorry excuse for a game , even for the easy increase in gamerscore.

  Oh, the deep secrets of the universe. Is God real? What happens after we die? Did aliens help build the pyramids? And finally...Why do developers release games like this one? What a waste of time and energy. What an insult to gaming. Have some pride in your work. If your going to make a game, make sure its a damn good one.

  If the game you've created is the equivalent to a video enema do one of the following.

  A: Fix it. Push back the release date. In the end I would think it would be worth it.

  Or.

  B: FIRE your game testers. They have no clue what they are doing.

  And finally.

  C: Ship your games out to the desert. It worked for Atari all those years ago.
