If you’re a fan of the game, there’s gonna be new Single-Player content in August (on the 13th).

It’s called “Demons of the Badlands!”.

http://community.redfaction.com/content/dlc-announcement-demons-badlands

It’s the first of 3 packs, which will probably be announced soon enough. 10$ per pack, and they take place in completely new areas.

Hello,

Apparently you can get inFamous, a fairly recent game, for 40$ less than normal retail for the next few days.

SmartCanucks reports. Please click through to their site for more details!

Also, I’ve spoken to a friend of mine that works at EBGames and he told me they were matching the price. Talk about save factor… ;)

There were quite a few announcements at E3 that caused the most excitement within me. Being a fan of Mass Effect, I enjoyed every minute of the Mass Effect 2 previews along with the news of an Iphone game being made that will tie in with a couple of characters found in Mass Effect 2. Sadly, I find it barely lives up to its expectations.

Hi! As you can guess from the title, I’m just going to be talking about random games. DSiWare titles, an iPhone game, a few Xbox360 titles and PC games. Maybe more if I can think of anything else to comment on. Read more…

It appears that this is a great weekend for Mass Effect fans! A couple of posts made by the Lead System Designer, Christina Norman, have given new insight to the difficulty settings that will be found within Mass Effect 2. If you have played through Mass Effect you know that the insanity difficulty could not be played until it was unlocked after two playthroughs. However, this may not be the case with Mass Effect 2.

Well, while I’m still in Ghostbusters mood, let’s talk about an arcade game based on them! I’ve been slow making new Arcade Center posts, but what better way to bring a new edition than talking about the Ghostbusters?

Okay, there might be a better way, but hey, why not?

Xbox 360 review – Red Faction Guerrilla

June 24th, 2009

red_faction_guerrilla_frontcover

There are quite a few reasons why I anticipated the release of Red Faction: Guerrilla. For starters, Volition Inc. is very versatile company as their games cover a wide assortment of genres ranging from Role Playing Games to First Person Shooters to Space Simulators.  I have enjoyed exploring space through their series Freespace as well as their entry into the open world genre with Saint’s Row.  Red Faction: Guerrilla seems to be the child born from the popular series Red Faction and Saint’s Row. This is a good thing, however, with a few cons.

PS3 review – Ghostbusters the Video Game

June 24th, 2009
No Gravatar

Ah Ghostbusters. A good piece of my childhood, and that of many other people who were born in the 80s. After 20 years since the second film, and the video game industry not treating the franchise very well(or, well, barely treating it at all), with the only decent game coming from the series being the Genesis game, but looking so wacky it wasn’t a great representation of the movies.

So after all that waiting, a new Ghostbusters game comes for next-gen consoles. I don’t know what was the draw to make a new game for it after so long, but as a Ghostbusters fan I couldn’t be happier that some developers(and publishers, thank you Atari for picking it up after the Vivendi/Activision merger almost destroyed it) showed some love for it.

So can the Ghostbusters finally make it into a great game? Read my review!
