Online passes are the epitome of anti-consumer behavior. I mean, does Sony not have enough money? Anyway, if you support this, I highly recommend these three videos from Jim Sterling from Destructoid and the Escapist. Even if you don’t like Sterling (like me), they are the best argument against online passes I’ve heard.…[Read more]

A long, long time ago, I wrote a crappy post about the Six Weirdest PlayStation ads. This is No. 7.

But it’s not weird in a bad way, like most of the ones on that post were. No, this is weird in a FREAKING AWESOME WAY

I normally think swag for video games is stupid, but most of that stuff is actually insanely awesome. I’m going to have to wait for the price before I can make a final decision, though.

I’ve been considering this game for awhile. I didn’t really like the first one (I could get insanely frustrated by the original Infamous), but it had it’s really fun moments. I think I’ll rent this.

Do you need Move to play this?

I’m not purchasing either, but I hope that Battlefield outsells CoD so bad. I hate CoD. I hate Activision. Considering that MW3 will be the same thing again, Infinity Ward has lost everyone except the guy in the mailroom, Sledgehammer Games is unproven, Activision sucks and Raven Software hasn’t made a good game in awhile. [...]

I cannot wait for this game. SR2 was awesome, but this looks…insane. First day purchase for me. I’m not going to wait to buy SR3 like I did for SR2 (I only purchased it last summer).

The more I hear about Dead Island, the less cool it sounds. I’m probably not going to end up picking this up.

Liking both the covers for Dead Island. I’ve lost interest in Dead Island recently, and I might pick this up a few months after the release date for less money.

Too be honest, I would’ve preferred like 50 to 75 bucks to use anywhere in the PS3 store, as not everyone would be into those games or may already have them. Plus, there’s some DLC I’ve been wanting for Burnout Paradise, GTA IV and others so that would’ve been useful. Still not regretting Dead Nation [...]

Already had inFamous, didn’t like LBP. I got Wipeout and Dead Nation. I’m finding Dead Nation to be really hard even on the easiest difficulties. Wipeout is a lot of fun, it’s like Mario Kart for adults and non-Nintendo fanboys. I was debating between Super Stardust HD and Dead Nation, and decided on Dead Nation [...]

Damn. I only got a PS3 in June of last year. Now they’re springing a PS4 on us already? Well, looks like I’m going to have to wait for the PS5 to come out before I can afford a PS4. And the PS4 better have backwards compatibility with PS3, PS2 and PS1 games. Rant over. [...]

I like it. Very interesting. Deep Silver has a good marketing team, what with that teaser trailer and now this box art.

Yeah, I’ll be picking this up. Especially for that price.

Oly: I’ve recommended a friend and my son’s friend to skip it, based on knowing what type of games they like and don’t. but I did say they should borrow mine when I’m done just to see what it’s like.  

Yeah, it’s certainly not a game like CoD or GTA, which is really for “anyone” who [...]

BLOODYICECREAM: Thanks. This is exactly what I’ve been looking for – a comparison. If it Noire isn’t better than Red Dead then I have no real desire to play it immediately.  

It all depends on how you look at it. I found the story in L.A. Noire to be much weaker than in Red Dead, but [...]

Is Rockstar skipping out on E3 2011, too? They did it in 2010. Oh, well. Saints Row The Third, Uncharted 3 and Skyrim should keep me occupied before Rockstar’s next epic.

Skyrim just keeps sounding better and better…November seriously can’t get here fast enough.
