It’s been a while since I’ve post here but I’m here to post about some recent items.
I didn’t even bother trying the demo for Dragon Ball Z. I have never played any of those games. I enjoyed the original Dragonball cartoons as a kid, but I kinda outgrew it almost 20 years ago.
I did try the NASCAR demo. I don’t know, I kinda got bored with just turning left...LOL. The demo doesn’t have enought of the special features to really see what improvement have been made since last year. Since all the cars are stock, you can’t change parts, but you can tweak option on you cars as you can in Forza. Too be honest the crashes were a little boring. I wanted to see some air, but alas no. It tries to present itself as a sim, but when you slam into the wall, the yellow flag goes up, a movie clip starts, and you end up in last place. No problem. Just like an arcade, catching up is quick.
There are more videos for the new Battlefield. I believe these videos are unecessary. I am already sold on the series and am already curious to try this title.
The new Brothers in Arms trailer is out and this is actually kinda cool. I’ve never tried any of the older games. I would have, but none are compatible on the 360. Oh well...I’ve never been sick of WWII. I know it’s been done to death, but I’m always up for fighting the good fight.
There are a couple of trailers for Dead Space, but I can’t quite figure out what that game is about yet.
Apparently Quake Wars is out and there are some trailers, but I think I’ll just wait for the demo.
There is also another Alone in the Dark making of doc. I really recommend these videos. The technology for this game is actually quite fascinating. This survival horror might actually change the genre. However this new video is pretty light, I would actually pass on this new video. No new info is this offering.
Flying games....Tom Clancy’s HAWX is just a teaser. Who know’s what is actual gameplay. I think the Tom Clancy universe already sold me. I’m waiting to see more of what the gameplay will be. I hear there will be co-op, but we’ll see. Ace Combat 6 has another batch of downloads. Ugg! It’s just another batch of paint jobs. In the slew of all the downloads for AC6, there are no new weapons or vehicles. I’m still waiting for my F-4!
The best new trailer out there is the English trailer for Infinite Undiscovery. An action RPG from Squaresoft. I can’t wait. If you download anything this week. This is the one to see.
"I LOVE YOU W-H-O-R-E-S!" The Season 2 opener for Code Monkeys is on LIVE and it’s free. This was my favorite download this week. It’s totally moronic, but utterly quite enjoyable.
If anyone is going to download the LEGACY game, Gauntlet: Seven Sorrows, let me know. I own this game and am willing to play some co-op with anyone that is interested.
