Review – Saints Row the Third DLC Part 1: Genki Bowl VII & Shark Attack Pack (PC)

I’m pretty torn on the Downloadable content for Saints Row the Third here.  On one hand, I really love this game, and more is good.  On the other hand, a load of it is costumes that SHOULD have been built into the game to start with.  At the very least they should run closer to a buck each and not the standard $2-$3.  Yeah, yeah, $3 is not much but consider that at this point, buying all of the DLC will cost you MORE than the game itself.  It adds up. I did get some of the DLC off of…

World of Warcraft – Part 02 – Giving it a Chance

So, I was trying to hold out just a little longer before writing another one of these for something else… something, better.  I will probably get to at least one more of these posts, maybe two if I manage to get to my level 20 cap.  If you’re just tuning in, or have not gotten what’s going on here, I’m working on playing through some of these many Free to play MMOs available on the market and giving some thoughts.  I’m starting with World of Warcraft since it is “the game”, or at least, it once was and seems to…

World of Warcraft – Part 01 – Newbie

I’m doing something here that may or may not stick, not the WOW thing exactly but something related to it. Anyway, this morning, I did something I have not done in my many years of being  a “gamer”.  I opened a World of Warcraft Account.  This is supposed to be the end all be all of MMORPGs so I figured that I should probably at least try it.  I mean people make a living doing this apparently.  Or at least Chinese sweatshop managers do.  Also people break up with their families and lives for this game and forget to eat…

Review – Battle Arena Toshiden (GB)

1-2 Players Fight to be the ultimate fighting master in this uh.. fighting game!  I haven't played any other Battle Arena Toshiden Games, so I can't really comment on how close this comes. Graphics: 8/10 Super deformed anime characters all around plus the occasional cut scene sequence. There's even a nice little animation of Ellis at the beginning.  It's easy to tell your fighter from the other fighter and when a character fights himself the opponent is darker in color.  I haven't played two players ever so I don't know if the player controlling is always normal colored to themselves. …

Review – The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim (PC)

Aside from Saints Row the III, I’ve been spending a decent amount of my gaming time playing The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. I have made it no secret that I am a huge fan of this series of games. I like free form games in general, Skyrim is no exception. While it is very enjoyable, there seems to have been some core focus shift in the design of this game, especially when comparing it to Morrowind, Oblivion, Fallout, and New Vegas. Here’s a few general observations… The game seems to be much more story focused. Or possibly the story is…
