I’m like James Bond and Jason Stalham put together. Okay, maybe not. I’m a consumer whore and as such been tapped to write for you.

Critter Crunch Review: A Rainbow of Barf on your HDTV

Capybara Games has provided me with a review copy of their first foray into the Playstation Network’s waters. A port of the original iPhone/iPod Touch release with some more content, how does this version of Critter Crunch stack up? First off, when you boot the game you’re welcomed by Capybara’s “mascot” (so to speak) for [...]

inFamous notes

Whew, E3 is draining me in terms of writing things for it. So, I’m going to give a quick +/- impressions on inFAMOUS, which came out a week before E3. Pro: + Controls really well. I was expecting some awkward superpower controls or something, but getting around the city was really quick and easy. + [...]

Puzzle Quest: Galactrix

Or: A lesson on how to screw up what was a good thing. Let me start by saying I loved playing Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords/Revenge of the Plague Lord. With problems and all that on the PSP, the XBLA release was alright and fixed a majority of the bugs. The PS3 version is [...]

Quick PSN updates

(Mostly because Dr. Time asked me to do this and I’m not really in the huge mood to write after comments thinking I’m “talking shit” about the console with Spider-Mans’ double chins has a blurry as fuck game…) Notable: Bionic Commando: Rearmed (remake of the NES game) is $4.99 ($5) this week. 50% off it’s [...]

Playstation Home finally gets a new space…

… Thankfully, you don’t have to pay for it like you do the new Log-cabin and Movie set spaces. Playstation Home Today has the information and screen shot grabs from the latest Pulse. This space is FREE and time-exclusive to the next couple of weeks (when it launches) and then it’s GONE forever. Be sure [...]

Happy (former) Big-Shell Day Everyone!

Now you, too, can carthwheel naked outside while waiting for a guard to “!” in surprise. And have the “living legend Solid Snake” hold your clothes while you do that.

HOLY SHIT

Capcom finally confirms they’re releasing Marvel vs. Capcom 2: NEW AGE OF HEROES for PS3/X-box 360. Sadly, we have to wait until the summer. Still, very nice. Can I get a “FUCK YEAH” from my non-existent audience? The short gist is, this is a wide-screen tailored online-code-base-like-Super Street 2: Turbo HD Remix (not sure if [...]

It’s hard to seduce women when you’re carrying around a shotgun

(To appease Mr. Timedoctor before he strangles me for this over IRC): Annoyment: Hey Treyach, 007 mode? Pin-point accuracy from the enemies? Yeah, that’s not “hard” that’s “annoying” “Oh, hey. I’ll slowly or too fast aim at the enemies head.” (BLAM BLAM BLAM! DUN-DUN-DUN-DAH-DUN-DUN! *Bond theme and death*) Another annoyment: Left Bumper for weapon switch, [...]

The Chronicles of Riddick: Dark Athena

…is kinda weak. In it’s defense, it has Escape from Butcher Bay which is fucking awesome. For those of you that never played the PC version/XBOX IS HUEG LOLOLOLOLOLOL haters should buy the X-box 360 version (it looks cleaner/crisper which proves Starbreeze can’t port for the PS3 well) ASAP if only for Escape being bundled [...]

Microsoft builds faulty hardware:

Film at 11. NeoGAF is linking Slowtaku Kotaku who is saying Microsoft is now repairing E74 (AKA: GPU MELTED ENJOY YOUR GREEN BOXES BEFORE YOU TURN YOUR CONSOLE OFF FOR THE LAST TIME! LOLOLOLOLOL!) errors. The best news: That’s the, uh, “good” news. The better news? If your machine suffered from an E74 previously, and [...]

I am awesome:

And yet, people don’t read me and read people that steal my thunder: Valkyria Chronicles? Yeah, that awesome game I told you to go buy or you’re dead to me? Someone is saying the same thing if only nicer. Damn you, Playstation Lifestyle! Quit stealing the spotlight that should be getting me paid by Mr. [...]

Damn it, Sony, Damn it: The Cock Up Edition

Yeah… you remember that super-awesome 1.30 patch for Wipeout HD, that

Quick updates:

Nothing really witty, this is an attempt to break my writers block for this website and inform at the same time. Biohazard 5/Resident Evil 5′s “Versus” downloadable content came out today. You can’t spell ignorant without IGN is a little hard on it: Versus includes two modes, Slayers and Survivors, with free-for-all and 2-on-2 team [...]

I say:

Valkyria Chronicles for the PSTriple. $29.99/$30 HIGHWAY ROBBERY! My quick review of the game: Pick the game up, or I will punch you in the crotch. No, seriously: It’s a GOOD SEGA game in a couple of years that isn’t a port! BIZARRE! I KNOW! Try the demo [On the PSN store -ed]. If you [...]
