Grand Theft IV: The Ballad of Gay Tony

The final expansion pack for GTA IV hit the shelves of the local EB Games and Xbox Live Marketplace last Thursday and with Modern Warfare being a week away downloaded it to switch gears from my constant firefighting in ODST. Besides, that commercial had some of the best dance music I just had to get it. (If you don't know what I'm talking about, click here)

Halo 3: ODST

Before I begin with my review I should inform you on how I got my copy of the highly anticipated game.

Its September 21, 10:30pm. I call up a good friend and ask him if he would like to pick me up for the midnight launch. He abruptly tells me that he cannot go, and so my only chance of a ride falls into shambles. Fearing I would end up last in line and have to wait until dawn before getting my copy I quickly begin walking down to the local mall. In case you don't know I am fairly heavy person. Yes I am fat. So walking 40 minutes straight wouldn't be something I would usually do. But it's video games. Anyways I arrive at the mall with enough sweat to fill a pitcher and promptly try to get in. A friendly old man opens the door as I explain my reasons for being there so late. Unsure, he calls down security and they ask me the same questions. I tell them I am here for the midnight launch of a video game at EB Games. They tell me there is no such event and that EB Games is closed until tomorrow. Now, I am pissed but refusing to walk back. I summon a cab and angrily go home. The next day I return to a now open mall to a now open EB Games and demand that they tell me why they would tell me about a midnight release of ODST when I pre-order the game, and then NOT have a midnight release. The clerk looks at me confusedly and says "......whut?" Rage settles in but I will not make a mockery of myself in such a populated area, too many witness to a clerk getting their jugular ripped out. I buy the thing I spent so much effort into I might as well have bled for and return home to relax and play ODST. Now! Onto the review,

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.

Batman: Arkham Asylum Review

Dark clouds pour rain over Gotham city, lighting flashes angrily as the eternal storm of crime darkens every light in the city. Police cars zoom by and a CB radio crackles, "Batman is taking the Joker to Arkham Island." Then a single finned black car emerges from the shadows at a unnatural speed, YES! The old Batmobile is back! The music slowly builds up, and the dark tone that we know and love settles in.

This is Batman.
