Surprise! Fable 2 DLC likely in the works
Oct 7th 2008 7:17PM (Joystiq Xbox)I also can't understand why someone would preorder the CE when you don't even know if the game is any dang good.
BioShock will splash onto the PS3 [update 2]
May 22nd 2008 12:43PM (Joystiq Xbox)BTW, I've been thinking of getting a PS3 for the Blu-ray player. Any good PS3 exclusive games around? Anyone care to chime in?

May 14th 2008 3:45PM (Joystiq Xbox)More assassinating Assassin's Creed planned
Apr 25th 2008 2:30PM (Joystiq Xbox)No items to discover, no tidbits to better yourself in any way. Beautiful graphically at first, but skin deep. You can barely interact with the environment other than climbing it.
Also, the constant beeping noise when the guards are aware of you gets extremely annoying. And the modern day stuff was so boring it's hard to believe it was executed and put into a game that was commercially marketed.
PSP Fanboy review: Crash of the Titans
Oct 25th 2007 12:49PM (Joystiq Playstation)I was loving Daxter until the part where there's a time limit and you have to zoom around in the hovercraft. Just plain frustrating. The PSP controls suck for that kind of game.
Chatpad and Halo 3 accessories arrive next week
Aug 31st 2007 1:05PM (Joystiq Xbox)I would guess that it does, but I'd like to know for sure. Thanks.
BioShock is on an impressive 100 streak
Aug 16th 2007 9:01PM (Joystiq Xbox)Problem with them for me is they get boring after a few hours... Seems like after a couple hours, you just repeat what you've been doing over and over.
But this one played really nicely. Great style, sound, etc. I'm on the fence, and will probably buy it off ebay in a few months.
Micromart won't repair three red light 360s
Jun 28th 2007 4:20PM (Joystiq Xbox)Blue Dragon officially lands on August 28
Jun 28th 2007 11:56AM (Joystiq Xbox)I really do wish games would get more away from the gritty drab browns and grays, though. This looks like it will be interesting to look at at least.
IGN UK rates Overlord; Verdict: Impressive
Jun 14th 2007 6:23PM (Joystiq Xbox)First of all, the creature guiding you through the tutorial was extremely annoying. OK, maybe he goes away after a little while. But the whole thing was dripping with a cutesy, comedy vibe that I just didn't like, and I'm sure was there to make the 'evil' you do more acceptable to moms and such. The scarecrow is another example of the attempt at humor I found grating.
Also, though the animations of the minions were fluid, a lot of what they did happened so fast, that it just looked like a swarm of blurry bees plowing through the pumpkin field, for instance. I also just didn't like the 'sweeping' control. Also, it felt like it's just a maze you're going through... very little choice in where you could walk, even though you're like seven feet tall and the 'hills' blocking your path are around 2 feet.
Maybe I'm in the minority, but I deleted it after trying it a couple times.
