Thursday, July 31st, 2008 at 7:59 pmFirst real trophy brag moment for me just happened a few minutes ago. I decided to tackle Super Stardust HD and finished off the last two levels, which put my trophy count at 11. Or as I like to say, Level 2 baby! I am a Level 2 PS3 whore.
Simple pleasures my […]
Who needs the GT5 boob tube?
Thursday, July 31st, 2008 at 6:45 amAfter reading the recent playstation blog update on Gran Turismo 5: Prologue, I came away with an empty feeling. Disappointment.
Seriously, who cares about all the video crap that is being released on Gran Turismo TV?
On Friday, August 1st, Gran Turismo 5 Prologue owners will receive a significant update that will take their racing and […]
EA. PS3. Lemmings.
Wednesday, July 30th, 2008 at 7:41 pmAccording to ps3fanboy, the PlayStation 3 is EA’s biggest source of income [starting in 2008 … financial data … all that jazz … link in the article referenced].
PS3: 139mln (13mln, 969%)
360: 81mln (47mln, 72%)
PS2: 79mln (61mln, 30%)
Wii: 57mln (29mln, 97%)
So what does this say about PS3 owners? Sorry. Could not really come up […]
Wednesday working towards the weekend.
Wednesday, July 30th, 2008 at 6:58 amAnother hump day is starting, so let’s get on with the random updates.
No matter how often I look, there is never anyone playing Calling All Cars. What a crock of crap. It has a 77 rating at metacritic, so it is not as if the game is all that bad. I have […]
Braves finally deal Teixeira.
Tuesday, July 29th, 2008 at 8:38 pmI think Braves fans knew it was coming sooner or later. Teixeira had to go; no way the Braves were going to be able to afford to sign him to a long term deal. Today the Braves sent Teixeira to the Angels.
On Tuesday, the Angels made the kind of deadline blockbuster they’re often […]

Resisting Resistance
Monday, July 28th, 2008 at 2:27 pmI never got into Resistance. A handful of hours here, and a few chapters there, but mostly a dust collector. Really just an expensive rental, and another reason that I should not buy shooters. It is not that the game was bad. I think the only reason I picked it up was because it […]
NCAA Football 09 - It sucks. It rules. Will it be patched?
Sunday, July 27th, 2008 at 1:25 pmBy now the lines are drawn. You either love the game, or you hate the game. I do not think there is much middle ground on this one.
Bill Harris pretty much hates NCAA Football 09, as he has pointed out in a series of articles. Click here, here, and here for all […]
Madden 09 Countdown (16 days)
Sunday, July 27th, 2008 at 8:38 amgameshark, courtesy of William Abner, posted some E3 Madden 09 impressions. Fairly detailed for a quick 15 minute session, but it sounds like Mr. Abner did not have enough time to really hit on gameplay issues/concerns.
A skeptical gamer will expect updated rosters, maybe some updated graphics, and a few new non-gameplay related features. Contrary […]
Fun with NCAA Football 09
Saturday, July 26th, 2008 at 8:36 pmIt’s hard to believe, but with all the bashing, NCAA Football 09 is actually fun. There has been enough negativity on this one that you may think it is a total suckfest. The game is certainly not perfect, but sometimes fun trumps nagging issues. Take this recent game for example. I […]
Hide the women and children. Here comes the porn.
Saturday, July 26th, 2008 at 5:32 pmI am not sure if porn and videogames go hand-in-hand (make your own damn puns), but I do know that it is a matter of time before some of the more adult oriented Japanese anime makes it into a US videogame. Niche for sure, but it is coming sooner or later. Or maybe […]
Baseball Mogul 2009
Saturday, July 26th, 2008 at 4:53 pmClay Dreslough asked me to take a look at his latest version of the long running Baseball Mogul series. Ask and ye shall receive. I’ve installed it (file is literally half the size of the mammoth Out of the Park Baseball 9 download) and played two games. My initial reaction is mixed. […]
Here come the trophies.
Saturday, July 26th, 2008 at 9:33 amthatgamingsite.com [found via n4g.com] has compiled a list of Trophy support; plans for upcoming games and currently released games (updates via a patch). Too bad there are no plans for Oblivion support; would add new life to the game. Same for 1942.
On a positive note, Uncharted should get Trophy support on August 22, […]
Saturday Stuffs is back!
Saturday, July 26th, 2008 at 7:28 amI love me some stuffs, so here we go!
Brett Favre - Big game of chicken. I don’t care how much of a icon he is; for sure future Hall of Fame material. No way Green Bay should give in and release him because Favre “deserves” to be released. This would set a […]
PS3 Poker Night
Saturday, July 26th, 2008 at 6:39 amAs part of the recent PlayStation Store Summer 08 Sale, I picked up High Stakes on the Vegas Strip: Poker Edition for $4.99.
Have to know when to fold ‘em …
I am not a big time poker player; or a small time player for that matter. I do not have a poker night out with […]
