State of Emergency: Jon Shaw Addresses The Gaming Community

HALO: ODST is gonna be a blast

Halo 3 ODST - 1

I just got this video and I am so excited on how the HALO franchise continues to reinvent it’s self. Many love HALO and few hate it. But, no matter how you look at it HALO:ODST looks to redefine it’s self with this new multi-player mode named “FIRE FIGHT”.

I know some might think that Bungie is pulling a copy cat mode from Gears2’s HORDE mode but I don’t agree. Read the rest and see the video after the break. Read the rest of this entry »

Sony Marketing At Work

Now this is what I’m talking about!

R* says come back to us on 9.01.09

GTAIV

Looks like the Official R* Blog has just posted an announcement telling us that “Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City Trailer Coming 09.01.09″. This is funny when a trailer is something people will be waiting for. Seems like R* can do no wronge when it comes to it’s properties. I’m hoping for a long HD trailer not some 30 second low res infomercial.

Grand Theft Auto: Episodes from Liberty City includes both The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony together on disc exclusively for Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, and will be available worldwide on October 29th.

Lil Wayne Wife Beating Video

I know this isn’t game related, but since Lil Wayne was on Davis Weekly, I thought I would post this. Beating starts at 5:42. I don’t even know why he laid into her like that.

user-playstationhome15
Reminder: This week brings a ton of new Playstation HOME content. It’s actually been some time since we’ve recieved an update for our PS3. It’s kind of sad for me I always like receiving SONY’s updates on a regular basis on my PS3 even if it’s to add one single function or just to add a little pizazz to my personal space.

Evangelion: 1.01 You Are (Not) Alone

Evangelion

What is Evangelion: 1.01 You Are (Not) Alone? It’s the first of 4 movies retelling the Neon Genesis series with redrawn animation, added scenes, and re-recorded voices. The movie skips all the unecessary diaglogue and just cuts to the chase without skipping any of your favorite moments. It has a more serious tone than the original series had, but it’s a welcomed change because it’s executed so well. If you have a chance to see it in a theater before it’s Nov 17th (US) DVD release, you should definitely do so. I really enjoyed watching the film and was wowed into a starry-eyed state. If you’re a fan of Evangelion it’s a must see for sure.
