Meet the man behind Halo's multiplayer announcer

Mar 30th 2011 9:13PM (Joystiq)
Surprisingly, he's not that different from what I expected, as far as looks...mannerism is quite a bit different though.

"Cheney-mania" is friggin' EPIC though, and should be put back in. I demand an update, Bungie!

Joyswag: Dreamcast Collection, soundtrack vinyl and 'Still Thinking' hoodie

Mar 21st 2011 10:16PM (Joystiq)
Favorite Dreamcast game was Crazy Taxi, played (of course) with the steering wheel accessory (the only extra "controller" I've ever owned besides the Guitar Hero guitar). Used to spend hours upon hours after school playing that game and making sure I only ever heard The Offspring on the soundtrack. I'm pretty sure I'd need the racing wheel for Xbox if I won this game.

Sega bundling 46 Genesis games for Classic Collection Gold Edition on PC

Needs more Spider Man: Maximum Carnage and NBA Jam TE, then we can talk.

Weekly Webcomic Wrapup is all chocolates and flowers

Feb 13th 2011 10:35AM (Joystiq)
While "Policestation" was clever, and I liked it...HOW THE HELL IS VIRTUAL SHACKLES NOT WINNING, YOU HEARTLESS BASTARDS?

Angry Birds Rio movie tie-in game revealed, coming in March

@RoboZombie585 It's worth the $1 to not have the ads in the stupid right-hand corner of the screen, so you can't see your damn bird falling to know when to use their abilities. Stupid ads!

Weekly Webcomic Wrapup has an embarrassment of comics

Jan 31st 2011 9:47AM (Joystiq)
I've noticed that I'm opening all the comics in new tabs, reading them quickly, and then voting...without realizing who wrote which comic (meaning I'm apparently not even paying attention to anything other than the comic). I have to come and re-open the comics (I close them after reading for whatever reason) to find the one I liked. I was surprised that the one I voted for was PA...don't know why, but it felt different from their normal style. Maybe just me?

VGCats was good too...just ran a little long for my tastes, but I don't think I would've changed it, either, if that makes any sense. I still laughed.

Lots of good ones this week. Enjoyed No Cash Value as well, because I've been in those shoes too many times. :(

LittleBigPlanet 2 online players report 'infinite loading' glitch

Jan 23rd 2011 9:49AM (Joystiq)
Had this happen the only time I played online. The people I played with were very cool, and are actually now on my friend's list...but it was taking me forever to load the level (I actually only saw their pod once...every other time I was thrown into the level). For whatever reason, if I tried to bring up a text bubble, it fixed the issue. It was totally weird...thought maybe I was having lag issues, but I've never had a connection problem before. I'm hoping that this was the issue, because I'd like to play with them again!

Also available on bestbuy.com for preorder.

'Your Mom Hates Dead Space 2' campaign uncovered

Jan 17th 2011 11:40AM (Joystiq)
Is anyone else surprised that the website at the end (yourmomhatesthis.com) wasn't already a porn site?

That's really the first thing that popped into my head after the ad.

Also, while I know this will make lots of people yell at me, the first Dead Space wasn't really any good...the controls were AWFUL and I just couldn't get into it...so I don't see this one taking off that well anyway. They will need MUCH better marketing than this to make this sequel a success.

PSA: EA half-off sale begins this week on Xbox Live

Jan 17th 2011 11:36AM (Joystiq)
Anyone who doesn't already own Risk: Factions has an automatic purchase this week...I'm not generally into that type of game, but this one got me hooked. I paid full price and still felt like I got a good deal. Storyline has lots of depth for an "arcade" game and the online can keep you coming back.

Also, Deathspank got boring before the demo ended (sorry devs!) so even at half-off I can't justify it. I also agree with everyone bagging on Battlefield 1943. I think I got it for free and still felt ripped off. I've only been able to play ONCE because it will never connect or is so ridiculously laggy that I have to quit before my xbox explodes. Save your money.

And if anyone is a sports fan, both NFL Arcade and NHL 3-on-3 are great....very arcade-like quality, tons of fun, and the games are quick (on default settings, at least) so if you just want a quick bit of sports action but don't want to run through a full game of Madden or NHL these are perfect.

Just my $0.02
