Year: 2008

  • Google Maps – Capital Wasteland

    Now you can easily find your way through the world of Fallout 3, with the help of Google Maps! I don’t know what I’d do without you and your maps, Google. I’d probably never find the Republic of Dave, that’s what. Google Maps Capital Wasteland

  • Mirror’s Edge 2D

    So, let’s say you played the Mirror’s Edge demo and liked it, but you haven’t bought the full game yet because you’re completely and totally broke (me). Maybe you’re sad because you don’t have it, maybe you’re angry at the world. Well, do I have a solution for you! I mean, it’s not my solution,…

  • Buy Every Valve Game for $99

    If my computer didn’t suck, and I didn’t already own a lot of the games, I’d totally buy Valve Complete Pack, which is available through Steam here and includes Left 4 Dead. Left 4 Dead is what, $54 anyway? Might as well get a ton of other games for a couple bucks more.

  • Atlus Announces My World My Way

    Are you sick of typical RPG’s that have “gender-confused boy heroes with their spikey hair and ginormous swords living out an absurd ultimate fantasy?” Well, apparently, My World My Way is the game for you. Originally released in Japan as The World Revolves Around Me, this totally amazing DS game has you controlling Elise as…

  • iOcarina

    SMule: Ocarina [Zeldarian] from SonicMule, Inc. on Vimeo Robert, you should get this for your iPhone. You always said you were the #1 Zelda fan, now is your chance to prove it. It’s only $0.99, it’s totally worth it.

  • Dead Space Review

    I admit, initially I wasn’t too pumped about Dead Space. I honestly thought it was just going to be some cheap Doom or Resident Evil rip-off, just another generic game borrowing concepts from other series in hopes of making a quick buck. I was dead (get it?) wrong, Dead Space is an amazing game that…

  • Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia Soundtrack

    I really like Castlevania: Order of Ecclesia’s soundtrack (and the game in general, it’s the best Castlevania game in a long time). Now, however, I’m pissed off I didn’t preorder the game because a music CD came with it.

  • New Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix Screens

    Chun-Li has some huge thighs. The updated graphics actually look pretty awesome. Many more screens below…

  • Mother 3 English Language Patch Out This Week

    Earthbound (Mother 2 in Japan) on the SNES was pretty awesome, it was an original take on the RPG genre. Turns out it didn’t sell so well in the U.S., though. Then, in 2006 Mother 3 was released in Japan for the GBA. U.S. fans hoped and prayed and protested for a North American release,…

  • Street Fighter Club Event in Brooklyn, NY

    What’s a Street Fighter Club event? Apparently, an “evening of free pizza, sodas, an amazing goodie bag and ten Street Fighter IV arcade machines.” At least that’s what happened in L.A. when they held a similar event earlier this year. It took place in some run-down warehouse in an “ultra-sketchy” neighborhood, so there’s a good…

  • Cave Story Coming to Wii

    Nintendo recently announced their holiday 2008 line-up and, along with a bunch of other stuff, Cave Story was announced as a WiiWare release: Cave Story: This title is an action-adventure game with new, exclusive content and features created only for the WiiWare version. Cave Story (Doukutsu Monotagari) is currently a freeware game for the PC…

  • Virtual Console Update – Mega Man 9, Vectorman, and Super Dodge Ball

    This weeks Virtual Console and WiiWare update is a good one, with three great games coming out. Vectorman, in particular, was one of my favorites on the Genesis. It’s also the main reason I don’t feel bad littering: In 2049, the human population of Earth embarks on a migratory voyage to try and colonize other…
