Format: Sony Playstation 2 First Person Shooter Developer: Criteron Games Publisher: EA Released: 2006 Black was an odd title. But fun. In a world heading more and more towards online FPS titles, especially modern based warfare ones, Black would probably be considered the last hurrah to the old school single player titles. Especially given it’s … Continue reading
Soccer World Cup and NZ’s Turn Of Attitude
No one needs to point out the irony to me that we sent a team called ‘The All Whites’ to South Africa… especially given the turbulent history of that topic NZ has with the country in the early 80’s. Aside from this, which I just wanted to get out of the way first… don’t get … Continue reading
Game Of The Post #5: Auto Modellista
Format: Sony Playstation 2RacingDeveloper: CapcomPublisher: CapcomReleased: 2002 Auto Modellista is an odd little gem that turned up on my doorstep thanks to the late great PSM magazine. Several years ago I entered a competition to win a Capcom prize package, and amazingly I won. The item which turned up on my doorstep? A Street Fighter … Continue reading
So… my PS3 died… but how are you?
So I had intended on doing my long delayed follow up to the PS3 update saga from a few months back, however last week my PS3 gave way to the Yellow Light Of Death, or YLOD as it’s known online. This in of itself wouldn’t have been an issue as I’d somehow managed to cover … Continue reading
Why Videogame Movies Have More Or Less Failed…
The other night my girlfriend and I sat down to watch a couple of films from my DVD collection. She picked out Rush Hour, which I’d not seen for quite some time but both of us had seen before (my memory of the film was fairly good, but my understanding is that Rush Hour 2 … Continue reading
PS3 Gaming Overload
After the delays to testing the rest of my games for updates (mostly due to the PS3 error – which I’ll get to in a bit), I’ve been in the middle of finishing up numerous games sitting on my shelf for the PS3. This is something I will hopefully later this year be able to … Continue reading
Me Vs. IGN + News Thats Not News (Updated)
I’ve recently had a bee in my bonnet (for lack of better expression) over various websites posting news that’s not really news at all on their websites in an attempt to either look like they’re trying to crack something open, or just filling their front page with updates that didn’t really take anything produce. A … Continue reading
PS3 Game Updates… [Updated… ironically]
Oh no…. yup it’s a rant about this. It’s been a while since I’ve written in here, but not through lack of want… just been busy with work, friends coming to stay, and most of all gaming. Which of course leads me the point of this update. Slow downloading, annoyingly large, and almost constant game … Continue reading
10 months, 25 days…
…is how long it took me to finish Resident Evil 5 100% (more or less). Considering that the series was… well is… still one of my favs, I don’t know why it took this long. With it I got my first PS3 platinum trophy though which may seem quite fitting (although was only 3% away … Continue reading
Utter fail… maybe not…
SO. I finally got to play the AVP demo on PS3. Rebellion have noted that they have stuffed up on the PS3 matchmaking which is why the connection never happened and things start to be improving (games can now connect, takes about 5-10 mins – but it’s better than never and waiting for over half … Continue reading
