Take That, Hitler Clone!

Am I the only one who’s sick and tired of them spending time on remakes? Give me an original title over a remake any day.

a new cagcast? you’d been gone so long i thought they shipped you to iraq with Billy Crystal to do one of those support our troops shows.

Free is good. I mean, everything is worth a try at that price. But it will take some impressive work to pull me away from the other games I have to play currently.

Seriously though, thanks for the data. Let’s see if the big N can keep going with their casual gamaer games.

Most Anticipated in 2008 - Wii

"The Wii's really got a sad lineup this year. Past the big first party titles (WiiFit, Smash, Mario Kart) what is there? Okami was great, but came out at least a year ago.

Granted, there will be about a million hasty ports of PS2 or PSP games, and at least 100 new bad party titles."

I’m a huge TF2 fan and am really excited about this game! Free makes everything better as well. I’ve also played a ton of Battlefield 2, so I have lots of reasons to be interested in this game. I hope it comes out polished enough even tho its free.

Exclusive Video: Advance Wars Days of Ruin Launch with Wombat

I Wish I could have been there to get a free copy of the game, but I live to far away.
Wombat should just quit his day job and be a news anchor, he would be better then 99% of them.

More Stuff From Sony, Some of it’s Free


I’m agreeing to Chris Duran’s comment - the PSN store needs a bit of an overhaul. I got Guitar Hero 3 for Christmas and heard of some downloadable content for the game, so I started to browse the store using those tabs on the main page. However, I found diddly squat. I had to look about all sorts of places to find some DLC that was a month or two old. Boo.

This is a cool business model and I’m glad to see a big publisher like EA giving it a try. It remains to be seen if the graphical style of the game will work for them, but it’s about time that add support actually reduced the cost of games.

Posted by Prodromus on 01/22 at 01:17 PM
 
EA needs some good press right now and this is a small thing to do to get them some. I'ts probably going to be riddled with adds though but that my mean I get to blow up a Madden in game billboard. On second thought that sounds great.
 
EA Makes a Free Game: Hell Freezes Over, Film at 11


I’m just afraid that EA’s idea of “innovative” is to overhaul (i.e. copy) the graphical style to an established franchise while not doing any significant changes to the game mechanics (what really could elevate the game to the next level). I would hate to see EA debilitate another franchise like they have done with Medal of Honor.

Nice, great pick for things to look forward to Wombat. Other things to look forward to: Cable Networks (FOX mostly), News publications and select senators and congressman flipping out and calling for a ban for this game. Yay Censorship!

Fox Feigns Anger Over Mass Effect

Luke Skywalker + Debbie Does Dallas = LOL
See, the problem is watching Fox News in the first place.
 
This is the first of many big spots for you Wombat, I feel your internet celebrity status will shoot to the top, even surpass Cheapy D ! Love the sweatshirt. do they have a World 1-2 ?
 
As soon as I saw the words Fox News I knew that this story would be utter crap. I swear sometimes that the news people in general, on all stations, are from a different planet. They are always so out of touch with the real world. All they prefer to do instead of getting their stories straight and understanding the world is stir up controversy and start trouble. Of course then that trouble then is also fueled by the millions of stupid people who will watch somebody tell them one side of a story and instantly latch onto that side without even thinking about understanding the whole story or rationally coming up with their own ideas and using their own brains. This is just another example of the America getting out of touch, out of whack, and just plain stupid. Exactly the reason I do not watch the news.

Good find by the way Wombat!
 
There are two many trends in the Patriots’ favor, i.e. Brady coming off a bad game (always bounces back well), facing the same team twice, their experience, revitalization of Maroney, for them not to win. The Patriots can beat you in so many different ways. The Giants deserve a lot of credit for getting to the Super Bowl, but the Pats will win, but won’t cover the crazy spread.

Posted in "Don't Judge a Curse By It's Cover"
 
Below is my posting about the Mass Effect/Fox News Story. I was surprised to read that Wombat played the game twice and I rethinking my choice to not play the game now, not due to the great, hot, full-frontal female (alien and non alien) nudity but due to the fact that it's worth replaying.



I love the fact that when the man says basically that it’s not the government’s job to censor this stuff, but the parent’s job to make sure their children aren’t exposed to sexual content. And then one of the women says that’s unfortunate.
This isn’t a surprise to me, and is nothing new. I just love an uninformed media’s reaction to this type of thing. The argument that kid’s let themselves in after school, are unsupervised, and will want to play their daddy’s video games (after they used the argument that’s it’s young teen boys playing games, not the dad) leaves me asking many questions.
1. What kind of parent lets their children come home to an empty house everyday after school?
2. What kind of parent leaves adult media out for easy access for their children?
3. What is keeping these unsupervised children from logging onto the internet, looking up all kinds of porn? Is there material on cable TV that could be considered more mature then Mass Effect that they could access while they are unsupervised? You might say their are safe guards against that, but their are safe guards now in place on the Xbox too.
4.What’s keeping your child from having some friends over after school in the empty house he comes home to, and having a massive orgies and sex parties?
5. If you’re child is really old enough, and mature enough to be coming home alone from school, to an empty house where there is no parent to moderator him, isn’t he likely to be mature enough to handle this content?
Maybe these people should talk to their children, and educate them about sex when the time is right. Do their job as parents in regards that they clearly are not. And not get on to soap boxes that they don’t belong on since they don’t know what the hell they are talking about.

"Better Than Free Camel Toe"

I actually almost bought this when it dropped, and held off only because I was a little light on the cash flow pre-Holidays. Free though? I’ll always spring for free. Off to download!

Better Than Free Camel Toe:

The value of Undertow is approximately 4 times the dollar amount of the two weeks worth of an XBLA Gold membership. Granted, I probably wouldn’t have bought this game otherwise, but I’ll take what I get. I’ve been on Live with the same gamertag for over 5 years, and I can count the number of times I’ve gone to play and couldn’t because of LIVE’s performance on one hand. Maybe I should hire a lawyer… Think I’ll just download this and be happy.

Better Than Free Camel Toe

While I certainly cannot complain about something free, it would seem to make more sense just to extend every active gamertag out another month of Live service.

Still, free is free, and since the outage was during my playing of Mass Effect and Assassin’s Creed, I hardly noticed.

This was in reply to the crap debate on fox about SEXBOX...

I saw this the other day and I was so so angry at how ridiculous it was. There is so much nudity in ME so so much. She shouldn’t be arguing for something thats false because it makes here look like an idiot. Though Geoff’s use of the word “boob” made him sound unprofessional so it didn’t aid him in his debate. Then again, SEXBOX is pretty damn childish as well.

Fox Feigns Anger Over Mass Effect

 I think it is really funny that these people are afraid that kids are going to see this scene in a video game but they show practically all of it on TV for every child to see. It’s Ok if it’s on the TV, but not Ok in video games.

Posted by AmanoUsagi on 01/23 at 03:19 PM
 
I agree with that women! The ESRB obviously needs their head examined the ratings are all over the place. Halo could had been teen IMO
(I agree that their M rating on Mass Effect is just)

Been reading, but I finally had to start commenting, this is the one that has been killing me: http://gamesblog.ugo.com/index.php/gamesblog/more/fox_feigns_anger_over_mass_effect/P25/

My vervose reply: (Spoiler tagged for length)
"Well, EA is asking FNC to apologize, according to Kotaku.
I don’t think we’ll ever see that happen, though.
The worst part is the pure unprofessionalism displayed; ie: admitting to just watching trailers for the game before the taping - but she formed an opinion and is willing to share it.
And, isn’t it just wonderful that killing hundreds of humans and aliens is okay, but be careful of any implied love making! Would these airheads rather have a child walk in on his dad smacking his mother around than accidentally walking in on them making love? (Although, admittedly, seeing one’s parents having sex can force one to therapy...)
I have said it other places, I’ll say it here: Let’s ignore the violence and shooting and killing and rally against the romantic scene!
Lovemaking = big no-no, but shooting someone in the face = A-okay!
(And no, I’m not anti-violence, just pointing out the hypocracy at work here.)

Watching this was excruciating.

Only in a news story about games could someone joke about how clueless he was about games (the enchanted princess game) and then turn around with a straight face and give the sembelance of an informed opinion. And his well researched opinion..."nobody could argue that Luke Skywalker meets Debbie Does Dallas is a good thing.” This for a game that has the graphic nudity of a pg-13 movie.

 It’s good to see that MS is responding to the downtime. What I find strange is that Undertow is free for Silver members too…
