Over the Halloween weekend Bungie added the ''living dead'' to the Halo 3 double exp weekend playlist. Let me say i found this game very enjoyable. My only complaint is the inability to party up, that is really a disappointment.

The wait for Gears of War 2 is almost over. In less than a week we will be chainsawing noobs like it was 2005 all over again. Once we've had some hands on with the game be sure to check back for our impressions.

Microsoft smacked Sony in the mouth when they released the 360 a whole year before the PS3 became available. Despite a few lackluster titles and failing hardware the 360 still cruised along fetching Americans hard earned cash. It was during this time that we all learned what the ''Red Rings of Death'' ment, and that releasing a rushed console can come with some major cons. Two in a half years

Oil is to water as girls are to games. There aren't any sure fire reasons to explain why girls despise video games, so I took a few moments in busy schedule to try get to the bottom of this problem by sceretly examining my fiance's outlook towards videogames. In my limited time playing games with her Ive already discovered a few things that I never knew about girls and games. Rule 1. The game has

Their are rumors floating around the net that Sega plans to release a new console, even calling it the Dreamcast 2. If they do, the only way to describe the console would be ''dead on arrival''. Obviously the last time they tried to jump into the middle of a console war they got torched. I mean they cut support for the dreamcast after what 4 months? If i had purchased a Dreamcast and had then

Yea Scotty, Ill agree with you that the Army Men franchise was outright atrocious, but I could dredge up forgotten memories of worse titles that I'm sure caused Wal-Mart to re-think its returen policy for videogames.1994, was a year that saw some solid hits like Donkey Kong Country and Mortal Kombat 2 land on the SNES, but later that year, a little brown hole opened and gave birth to the turd we

Those army men games? I mean really, it seemed like they released one a week on psone, ps2, n64 etc. Don't get me wrong, i don't miss them, i think they all pretty much sucked. Maybe 3D0 thought that if they released a million games and sold one copy of each then that would be good enough. Amazingly, each installement was worse than its predecessor. In reality, the army men games had a

According to Media Create, Metal Gear Solid 4 has sold some 465,000 units in its first week in Japan. Thats more than 12 times as much as its closest competition Mario Kart Wii (38,000).And more than double the non-Metal Gear top ten combined!

Ya know, my mother doesn't have herpees, I'm not a homosexual, nor am I ''african american''. So why are players on Xbox Live, who by the way have no knowledge of me, my mother or my lifestyle, bashing to the point of exhaustion? Thats probably a question that cant be easily answered given the sheer amount of people playing online. So whats a fun loving gamer to do when met with harsh trash talk

One Kirby to another says; ''I'm tired of being a pre-pokemon childrens cartoon with no substance''. Thats what todays mature gamers are realizing about Nintendo. Sure we all grew up with Nintendo at the helm, but as we grow we need Nintendo to grow with us. As a child I loved smashing goombas and saving the princess, but now the sadistic side of my brain begs for virtual blood and guts and lets

To be sure the gaming industry wouldn't be what it is today without Nintendo. They single handedly saved gaming after the great crash of the early 1980's. Anyone in there early 20's and beyond will still feel all warm and snuggly inside when thinking about the stellar titles of the NES and SNES. Back in the day beating Mike Tyson in Punch Out! was the surest way to get bragging rights on the

For far too long I have scanned through countless video game magazines, sifering though ad after ad, just to get a glimpse of that hot new title. Seems today's video game mags have alot of fat around the edges and the meat is thin and sparse. So ladies and gentlemen, today I introduce to you......Yellow Root. Yellow Root is simple, Two guys who love video games and have a combined 40 years

Ah, the summer months eat away at gamers hearts and souls, with the lingering fall and christmas season approaching and santas promise for virtual satisfaction, how's a gamer to avoid a pesky tan? Some would say with Konami productions stellar Metal Gear 4, Hideo Kojima masterpiece that could very well lower the skin caner demographic this year. The jock in us all would praise EA sports for thier

One title creating a lot of buzz is the recently promised Halo Wars. According to the official Halo Wars Community site..."Halo Wars is the next real-time strategy game from Ensemble Studios, creators of the Age of Empires franchise. Designed exclusively for the Xbox 360, Halo Wars allows you to take charge of the human UNSC armies and see the Halo universe from a totally new perspective."This

The origional titles we use to play back in the day of the 8 and 16 bit era, seem to be just a nostalgic memory for todays modern gamer. Back then, the industry was fairly new and titles that by todays standards are tired and worn out, were fresh and exciting for thier time. Maybe it was the innocence and acceptance of our childhood that enabled us to sit and play through Dr. Jeckle and Mr. Hyde
