88 MPH


This is our first look at Telltale's upcoming Back to the Future series of adventure games. If you've seen and enjoyed any of the three films, you'll get a kick outta this.

It's gonna be available on PSN, PC and iPad with a 5 episode release take place 6 months after the events of the third film. The stylistic cartoony look appeals to me and we got Christopher Lloyd reprising his role as Doc Brown.

But the main reason you should all watch the video is for the guy doing the voice for our main man Marty McFly. You'd be convinced that it's Michael J. Fox doing the voice but as you all know, he can't do that anymore. No, it's some kid name A.J. Locascio, and after all this, he will be known as the "guy who sounds just like Michael J. Fox".

Black Ops Tomahawk FTW!



I had to post this. In Modern Warfare 2 you see tons of videos showing crazy knife throwing kills. Well that's all behind us now. In Black Ops, instead of a Throwing knife, we have the Tomahawk to embarrass our foes. Above is a crazy Tomahawk kill that will blow your mind. Thank you for the players who randomly throw their Tomahawks in hopes to see something awesome happen. Keep it coming!

I’ve got three words for you: Man Furismo Jive

You all excited for GT5? Cause we are. Even good ol' Kevin Butler is getting in on the GT5 action as the VP of Add More Awesome.

When he says "realistic damage", I really hope that's the case because early footage of GT5 and car damage/crashes looked kinda... poopy. But from this new commercial, the car damage looks better. Anyway here's to GT5. Excelsior!


Note: Mr. Butler is a professional driver on a closed course. Do not attempt.

Mortal Kombat Demo



Pretty old news since this was shown back in E3 '10 but it's awesome seeing a new Mortal Kombat in the works. When i was reading and watching conferences of E3 '10 for some reason i didn't notice they revealed Mortal Kombat in E3. Mortal Kombat started way back in in the early 90s and was an awesome 2d fighter in it's time. As it progressed and as the fighting scene changed, Mortal Kombat was left in the shadow by games like Tekken and Street Fighter. I'm really hoping they do a good job at bringing back Mortal Kombat to the players as this title has been gone for too long. So far it looks amazing and it might have a deep combat system that will be interesting to learn. Developers if Mortal Kombat are aiming for a spring 2011 release. For now, check out the demo from E3 and witness the new fatalities that are just flat out insane.

Playing Fallout: New Vegas, 18 hours in...


I usually finish games quickly, especially RPG's but Bethesda is the only company that makes me just hold back and just enjoy every bit the game has to offer. I'm 18 hours into my first playthrough, playing Hardcore mode, currently Level 8 and has not set foot on the New Vegas strip. Yes it's that long of a game and loving every second of it. You guys may already know, reviews state that this game is inexcusably buggy and it's true. Enemy AI occassionally being dumb standing still as i shoot it, floating dogs, game crashes(currently at crash number 3), and constant screen tears.It's funny that you'd think a 2 year old engine would be fine tuned by now but no, Bethesda always brings the best buggy games. A patch came to PC versions and will soon come to consoles so just bear with it for a few more days, i know i am.

It will take awhile until i finish this game and make a full review as i see myself committing to at least close to 100 hours into this game but it's safe to say that regardless of its funny bugs and issues it's a game worth picking up, be it the console version or the pc version. I'm playing New Vegas in my PS3 because for some reason in the Philippines the PS3 version came out ahead of the others. It took me time to get used to it since i usually play Bethesda games in my PC. I'm just keeping an open mind and experience a game like this in a console and it's just as great as the PC version. Here's the Trailer if for some reason you don't know what Fallout: New Vegas is.

Red Dead Redemption Undead Nightmare Pack


Red Dead Redemption Getting some updates for their Single Player with their new Pack content called Undead Nightmare. The Pack is said to bring hours of new Single Player storyline and new Multiplayer content. The new storyling focuses on a zombie plague that spreads throughout the frontier, and John Marsten has to fight his way into finding the cure.

They say in this new content you will be facing 4 different kinds of zombies, mythical creatures, zombie wildlife, and you can blow them all up with the new Blunderbuss weapon that will be included in the pack. The weapon apparently can be loaded with looted remains of dead zombies. Tomahawk and Explosive Rifle from previous dlc can be used if you have downloaded the Legends and Killers Pack and Liars and Cheats pack. Aside from the new storyline, there will be new quests, events and new Multiplayer free roam content. The new free Roam content called Undead Overrun(which i think is the best part of this pack aside from zombie wildlife) is a new survival mode where players must work together to survive waves of infected enemies. Oh yes, Zombie overrun, Left 4 Dead but Rockstar style!

Latest Trailer of Red Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare



Sounds good??? well sounds good enough for me to cough up money and grab my Red Dead Redemption copy out of the shelf when this dlc comes Oct 26(will update if date changes). I know what to do now on Halloween besides drinking and watching horror flicks. Zombies are just fun to kill...

Rock Band 3's Pro Guitar is Lefty Compatible

Lefty mode for the Pro Guitar (the guitar controller by Mad Catz with 102 fret buttons) is available for Rock Band 3 and is as simple as switching modes in the menu.

This is what was stated in the email sent by Harmonix to Kotaku:
"With regards to gameplay, lefty flip for the Pro guitar will worklike any other controller. Just select 'lefty flip' in your menu, turn your guitar around and get back to rocking. Pro gameplay on screen will adjust accordingly, just as traditional Rock Band gameplay has in the past."

Players with older Rock Band guitars will not be able to play the game's Pro Guitar mode. Players with only those guitars will be able to play the game's standard guitar mode in either orientation.

Gran Turismo 5 Delayed.....



Sony confirmed that the game will not be available on November 2, 2010.
A seen on the official Playstation Blog, SCEA producer Taku Imasaki has this to say.

"We sincerely apologize to GT fans for the delay, however, creator Kazunori Yamauchi and the team at Polyphony Digital want to make certain they are creating the perfect racing experience, and we are confident that this ambitious game will exceed expectations when it launches.We'll have more information for you in the near future.2, but said that it will be coming this "holiday season."

With GT5 first unveiled at E3 2006, you can't help but wonder as to why this stall happened so close to it's release date. Well, that gives us all more time to save up for the Signature and/or Collector's edition.


UPDATE: SCEA tells Kotaku that the delay is indeed global adding that they can't elaborate on whether "holiday season" could mean early 2011. When asked for specifics about the cause of the delay they only said that "Polyphony is optimizing ever aspect to provide the best racing experience."

Enslaved so far is great, Medal of Honor in store's now.....


On my previous post, i was deciding whether i should grab Enslaved: Odyssey to the West or Castlevania: Lord of Shadows. Well I've decided on Enslaved, and good thing i did because it's actually a really good game. This is not a review of the game yet since i haven't finished it, this is just a follow up of my previous post, i'm midway into the game and the pacing of the game is great. It's very engaging and is one of the best Action Adventure I've played since Uncharted 2.



EA's latest shooter, Medal of Honor just came out, the game looks OK. I've never been excited about this and from the feedbacks people are getting disappointed. I consider this game an answer to Call of Duty: Black Ops coming on November but will it come into par? we'll see in when it's out. Medal of Honor looking at it from afar doesn't seem like it will give me something new in multi-player. The only reason why i want to get Medal of Honor is to experience the epic Campaign which is said to be very short. Sadly these game's nowadays cater too much on the multi-player crowd that the Single Player suffers from it and that's just bad. I won't be getting this title, with all the other First Person Shooter game i currently have like MAG and Bad Company 2, i'm good in this department. I'm more excited about Bad Company 2's expansion called Vietnam. Bad Company 2 is a great game and i still play it once in awhile with friends. I'm surely gonna get it on day 1 of it's release.

Dead Rising 2 finished! REVIEW coming up soon, Whats next????

Finished Dead Rising 2 and is now thinking which game to trip on next?? well before Fallout: New Vegas Comes out on oct 19, i was hoping to get another game to kill time with my PS3. Well i have 2 games that i'm considering.......


Castlevania: Lord of Shadows, now from the looks of it and from the reviews i wont be getting the classic Castlevania feel, but more of a God of War meets the Belmont's. But it isn't a bad thing, i've given the Demo a go and the visuals are amazing! the game play felt great but do i feel like going through a God of War kind of game??


Enslaved: Odyssey to the West, now this game feels fresh. I've also tried the demo for this and i was also impressed with the visuals, but game play didn't feel all that special in the demo. but throughout the Demo i was already impressed with the two main Characters, the story seems to be interesting enough and the Post post Apocalyptic Setting leaves me curious about the game.


Their both great games to experience, how i wish i can just scrap this post and say " yep, getting both of them!" but not this time. Should i experience a great story and a world  thats new to me or should i go all out in Castlevania's revamp? We'll see what i decide when i am at the store holding both games...

Borderlands GOTY will have all dlc's and early access to Duke Nukem Forever?!




The Game of the Year Edition of Borderlands is coming out soon bundled with previously released Downloadable content, it includes Zombie Island of Dr. Ned, Mad Moxxi's Underdome Riot, The Secret Armory of General Knoxx, and the new Downloadable content that just came out Claptrap's New Robot Revolution. I initially thought this was a great deal and was planning to grab this Edition of Borderlands but now they made it even worth the buy.

Also in the bundle, they will be adding an access key to join the Duke Nukem Forever Access Club. Joining this club you will get access to item's related to Duke Nukem but more importantly Early Access to the game demo of Duke Nukem Forever. if you guy's haven't heard, Duke Nukem was being Developed by Take Two Interactive but pulled the plug on May of '09. Recently, Gearbox studio's bought the IP of the game and is currently being developed in Gearbox Studio's which is now due next year on Playstation 3, Xbox 360 and PC.

Borderlands was one of my favorite games of 2009 because of how they merged rpg and fps elements together and their art Direction  for the game, at the same time having 4 player co-op fun. With what's inside this bundle, its worth the buy for newcomers of the game and loyal Duke Nukem Fans.


North America PSN update; Modern Warfare 2 map pack on sale!

NA PSN just got updated on Oct 5 and they finally lowered those damn expensive Modern Warfare 2 map packs. From $14.99 to $7.49, no surprise here though since Call of Duty: Black Ops is coming on Nov 9, 2010. Man if $7.49 was the initial price for the map packs, i would have had them on day 1 but that's Activision for you i guess. Also, if your interested in Castlevania: Lord of Shadows they added a game demo. If you want to see the full update list here's the Source.

TESTING my blog and a little bit of news...

Hopefully you'll enjoy whatever posts ill be placing here. This is all about gaming so don't expect anything else. Right now i'm going through Dead Rising 2 on my PS3 and enjoying the hell out of it. Will have a review on the game when i've happily killed X zombies.



Fallout New Vegas finished

Apparently Fallout: New Vegas just got golden , which means they have finally finished the game and made a master disc for mass production. I Can't wait for this game. I played Fallout 3 several times. Played it Without mods, with mods, went through all the dlc's and became the worse person you wouldn't want to meet in the Wasteland. If you haven't played Fallout 3 your missing out. I highly recommend it.... I also recommend going through Fallout 3 first before New Vegas because fallout 3 will feel obsolete if you touch New Vegas. It's like someone who starts with Assassin's Creed 2 without even touching the first game. it's gonna be so hard to appreciate a great game when you start at their sequel. I had a hard time appreciating the first Uncharted because i started on Uncharted 2(yes, bad idea. But the game was staring at me!).Fallout: New Vegas is not a direct sequel to Fallout 3, but the similarities in game play will feel like a sequel.

Fallout: New Vegas, Developed by Obsidian Entertainment, Published by Bethesda Softworks, will be Release on Oct 19,2010 on PS3, Xbox360 and PC. Be sure to set aside some money for this Title, I already did. Will New Vegas be as good as previous Fallout Titles? we'll see soon enough.
