Final Fantasy XIII Coming To US/EU on March 9th

Square Enix said they were going to have big news today, and I guess this is it. While it’s nice to get a release date, I didn’t know announcing when your game was going to come out would be “huge news”. Either way I’m excited for the game and it’s about time. Other news was that English singer Leona Lewis will be putting the down vocals for the theme song. There you go Final Fantasy fans, a March 9th, 2010 release date and Leona Lewis. What more could we ask for?

Post Your Thoughts: MW2 “Terror” Controversy

Modern Warfare 2 is out. Like you didn’t know that? The game is huge and is now the fastest selling video game ever. While the game received a lot of controversy prior to it’s release from the gaming community, the mainstream media didn’t seem to say all that much about the game. Now that the game is out, news outlets like Fox News and MSNBC have already had segments on the game. No they aren’t talking about the gameplay or graphics instead they are focusing on one specific level in the game.

Most of you know where this is going. The mainstream media is focusing on the airport terror level. Many of us expected this response considering that the media loves harassing games that think outside of the box. Most people outside the gaming community think that most games should be like Mario or Tetris. Simple and kid friendly

Review: GTA China Town Wars (PSP)

(5/5)

Sonys Ego Cost Them Their Own Halo

Modern-Warfare-2-Character-1

Sonys brand name is extremely popular and still the most dominant in the game industry but, it’s not the end all of options to go to for a great gaming experience. Microsoft has proved that a company can come from the bottom to the top with smart strategies, great games, and innovation. The Xbox360 has more than made it’s mark in this industry and with games like Halo, and Gears in their corny it will only continue to grow.

Sony has had a ton of opportunities to capitalize on Microsoft some worked, and some didnt’ but the most crucial missed opportunity was having Call Of Duty all to themselves. Sony would’ve been in such a bigger position than their in now but a couple of slip ups has kept them away from even greater strides they would’ve currently had.
