Eye of Judgement
I think I want to get a PS3 now, more then ever. I used to play actual card games like this, and the idea of it being combined with the video game aspect is pretty interesting. I love the 3D view card profile, how awesome is that? I so want to get this game.

RPG Cliches
IGN has a pretty funny article up about RPG cliches. I shouldn’t say funny, it’s more sad, actually, how so many RPG’s have these cliches. Some of the better ones include “Humble Beginnings”, “The Errand Boy”, and “Morality, Schmorality!”. It’s so true. Every RPG I can think of in recent memory involves me running around…

PS2 Turned Seven Yesterday, I Forgot
The PS2 is going to be soooo pissed at me. Yesterday was it’s birthday, and I didn’t so much as give it a card. October 26th…how could I forgot something important like this? I’m such a jerk. I can’t believe it was seven years ago the PS2 came out. I remember the first games I…

Will Wright Confirms Spore on Wii
In a recent interview with Guardian, Will Wright confirmed that Spore was coming to the Wii: We’re doing Spore on the Wii, and we did MySims. It takes signifcant. PS3 and Xbox 360 are similar enough that you can. So it comes down to what the interesting major platforms are and which markets we want…

Awesome Radical Retro Prospective: A Boy and His Blob
This week’s retro prospective spotlights A Boy and His Blob: Trouble in Blobolonia, which was first released in 1989 for the NES. The game was pretty weird but that’s what made it so awesome. Basically, it’s a side scrolling platformer, with a twist. The whole time you have a blob friend (named Blobert, apparently) that…

Could a Square Character Appear in Brawl?
I was listening to IGN’s Wii-k In Review today, a podcast where the Wii editors talk about all things Nintendo. They were talking about Super Smash Bros. Brawl, and mentioned that they were waiting for “…the big Square character unveil…”. I never really thought about it, does this rumor have any truth? How awesome would…

Orcs & Elves
Seriously, this looks like the worst game ever. How long did they work on this for before they decided “You know what, let’s just stop and release it.” I guess the burning quest is if there are, in fact, any orcs and elves in this game, or if the game creators just felt like that…

Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles
Resident Evil on rails…honestly, not excited. I don’t even know why I posted this, really. Why can’t the Wii get a real new Resident Evil instead of an shooter on rails? I guess everyone who owns a Wii is too young or too old or just not hardcore enough to buy this, anyway. Am I…

Wright Says Spore About Six Months Away
If you haven’t heard of Spore yet, it’s Will Wright’s latest awesome game. First Simcity, then The Sims, now…Spore. You basically control every aspect of the evolution of a species from microscopic through ruling the galaxy. The awesomeness doesn’t really come across in one sentence, I know, but it is, trust me. Anyway, Wright is…

Wii Animal Crossing an MMO?
Wired has an article up stating that a UK magazine has confirmed Animal Crossing for the Wii will be an MMO. I don’t know how I feel about it. If there isn’t someway to stop people from chopping down trees, planting pitfalls everywhere, or just generally destroying my town it will suck. Honestly, I don’t…

Super Smash Bros. Brawl Newest Character King Dedede
Smash Bros. Dojo has announced a new character today, King Dedede, from the Kirby series. Honestly, pretty lame if you ask me. I’m sure some people like him, but I don’t, he’s a big stupid head. Yeah, I said it, I pulled the “stupid head” card. Like, where is Captain Falcon? Captain Falcon is 10…

Front Mission (DS) Initial Impressions
The original Front Mission first came out for the SNES in 1995, in Japan only. I don’t know why they didn’t translate it, giant robots fighting one another is universally awesome. Regardless, Front Mission DS has now been released in the U.S. and is a remake of the original. It’s basically your typical tactical roleplaying…
