Halo Legends Review


    Anime and videogames has always been pretty synonymous. But how well exactly does FPS powerhouse Halo adapt to this medium change?

New Guild Wars 2 Trailer!!!



Here is the latest teaser trailer for NCsofts Guild Wars 2. This is a video highlighting all of the playable races you should already probably know about, but gives a bit deeper of an understanding of what they each stand for and how they will act in combat.

They have also updated the race info on the Guild Wars 2 website: Guild Wars 2 

The races in Guild Wars have always been really fleshed out, and this looks like its going to be a great addition to the lore.

What happend to D&D?

Dungeons and Dragons: a name that is deeply etched in the bible of nerd culture. Sleepless nights, 20-sided dice, and Cheetos are commonly associated with the original role playing game. But this is not a story about those things; this is a story about war, controversy, and an undying love for nerd culture.

As time goes on, products evolve. Dungeons and Dragons is no exception to this rule, they have consistently revised and relaunched the game over the last few decades, but to make changes to a game that so many hold so close to their hearts is a very delicate job. This has never been more of an issue then it is right now with the recent release of 4th Edition,  and the drastic consequences it has brought to an already divided fan base.

Left 4 Dead 2 Demo Impressions by Tyler



As of roughly noon today the Left 4 Dead 2 demo hit Xbox Live, giving gamers a taste of what the latest Valve shooter had to offer.

As an avid zombie lover, I eagerly queued it up for download. These are my impressions.

D&D - Part One

Our unsuspecting heroes were sitting at the quaint tavern in the town of Seawell. Six characters in total; Meaghan's character, Vache the half-elf cleric, my very own Starfox, the dwarven fighter, Luke's Ethios, the elven ranger, Goofy Ricky's Sir Brickhouse X, the gnomish bard, Joey's Pye, the halfling sorcerer, and Kazimier, Alex's elvish rogue.

The following are the events that followed in our first serious startup in the realm of Dungeons and Dragons 3.5.

I should do a update about every week to keep a cohesive storyline going on.

Links!

Today we have added two links to our friends tab, found on the right of your screen, to join Game and Tech.

The first of these being Korrok The Unseeable. This is a blog created and maintained by our friend Alex Frid, a fellow Humber student. It is a blog about media in general, and is just really hard to classify. But definitely check it out.

The second link we have added is to The Static Urgent. This site is created and maintained by Matt Thomson, Isaac Springall, and Matt Stuart. It is another very indescribable blog. It has really entertaining, and really unique, posts.

Left 4 Dead Leaked Trailer



This video was leaked late last night and, as always when dealing with Valve, it does not dissapoint at all. It seems they are injecting a bit of a storyline into our zombie killing this time around, and the special infected look wonderful...and annoying...and awesomely badass.

Thy Mushroom Kingdom Come



Just a quick little video. This nice little Left 4 Dead mod is courtesy of DoritoClock. And it looks like a good amount of fun for all you PC L4D players out there.

Lego Rock Band



So here I am sitting in the lounge of my residence, doing some homework and mindlessly browsing the newest Kotaku posts. When all of a sudden I stumble upon a post titled 'Lego David Bowie Sways Under The Serious Moonlight."

Turns out it was Lego Rock Band.

Captivated, I click on the read more button. (hint)

Super Street Fighter IV

Everyones favorite street fighting game (Street Fighter) is coming back! Again!



This seems like pretty much the exact same trailer as there was for the original Street Fighter IV. While it makes the game look awesomely stylized as fuck, it doesnt really do the game justice. Alot of fans were unhappy with this fact,

So lets look a little more in depth,

Guild Wars 2 Trailer



As many of you hopefully know, Guild Wars is NCsofts trademark MMO. This trailer is of the sequel to Guild Wars, appropriately named, Guild Wars 2. To sum up my thoughts of this trailer;

Multiple races = WIN
Epic Dragon fights = WIN
zombie army controlled by some sort of super dragon = WIN
super dragons name = FAIL
graphics = WIN WIN WIN
higher level cap = WIN

All in all, this game looks like its going to be massive. Look forward to a more in depth review sometime soon......or whenever the beta comes out.

We are currently forming what we want 8.bit.superstars to be so it will most likely be a slow and rocky start. this site WILL have our reviews and rambles of video games, movies, comics, etc. We will also be putting out a weekly podcast discussing those reviews. So stay tuned for our developments! You won't be disappointed, I hope.
