The Walking Dead Issue 91

TWD-Issue-91-Preview-250.jpg

*****WARNING SPOILER ALERT!!*****

The Walking Dad issue #91 just released and after such a climatic run of comics
issues 80-86 and all the happenings there this issue was a bit of a let down in regards to action. With that being said you almost need a breather after the last run in the story "no way out" lets see the entire town got over run with zombies, Morgan was killed along with Ricks new love and her son and then to top all that off Carl was shot again!! in the head no less and being put in a coma... whoo, OK some time between crazy plot twists is needed. But there seems to be a new relationship brewing with Rick and by the end of issue #91 its looks like the small community has some new outsiders looking round, and yes of coarse this is a must buy if like me this comic line is like CRACK!! to you also. LOL


So Skyrim Happened and WOW!

Its been a long wait sense Oblivion but it was well worth it sense they Incorporated the group from the Fallout series. The game play is very much like what you remember from the last Elder Scrolls game but the fight engine has been improved greatly. The other huge change from the last game is the charter creation, you no longer have to decide everything about your charters skill class all in one shot. When you build your charter now you can totally hone your skill set as you travel through the game, and speaking of the game it is the largest most expansive game as of yet and that saying a lot in the wake of the games like Fallout 3 and WOW. This is a must play for any fan of the series or a fan of action based RGP'S this game looks to be a game of the year title!

Fallout Web Series!! Nuka Break Ep 1

So a few months ago I stumbled across this 2 minute short made by "Wayside Creations" its was a take on Fallout New Vegas. This odd look at the waste land was a bit different from the serious dark "Book Of Eli" still of game we're use to, it was funny and made me laugh my ass off. A vault dweller, a ghoul and a scavenge chic with a short temper. The story revolves around the vault dwellers addiction to Nuka cola! Now every Monday there will be a new part in this goofy over the top but very funny story, tune in and check it out!

Half Life: Escape From City 17 Part 2

The Purchasebrothers have finally released the next part of the fan made Half Life: Escape form city 17 part 2 and WOW its amazing! The first part was impressive for the budget of $500 and had stunning effects for being 2 years old. The latest is almost 15 minutes long and gives us some story to follow out side of the main Half Life story, can't wait for Part 3! Take a look and we included part 1 in case you missed it.

Console Games For Mobile Phones?

I've been on the road a bit lately and I haven't had the old 360 handy so I was looking for a good substitute. After digging around a bit I found a fare amount of Android based games that run on the newer Android OS 2.3 or higher that offer almost console gaming quality on your mobile device!!?? Tom Clancy titles, COD styled games & a game called "Cordy" that is a mix of "Little Big Planet" meets "Super Mario". Company's like Gameloft has seriously stepped their game up no pun intended. Here's a video of some of my fav's so far.

Child Of Eden... Rez 2??!! "Yes" The Soul Successor Of REZ!

I've been STOKED for awhile after hearing that "Child Of Eden" was on the horizon. I've been playing it for the last week and it is most definitely the soul successor of REZ. The game play is all most identical so if you play'ed REZ you'll be right at home, and as great as that is it was a little disappointing that there was no difference in the game play?! Using the "Kinect" is a cool experience although by the 3rd level it was pretty much useless... just not responsive enough for as fast as the game throws stuff at you. This is still a very, very cool game if you played and loved REZ then this is a must have! If you are new to this kind of game then it will be a great first time experience! Giving this one a 9 out of 10 just be prepared to but your "kinect" on the bench for this one your going to need both thumbs!

LA Noire's first DLC "Nicholson Electroplating"

LA Noire's first piece of DLC "Nicholson Electroplating" is out today, you can still get the pass on Xbox live for 800 points which has some extra suites for your character and the DLC, looks like that's the way to go if your a 360 owner! Here's a look at the trailer.



LA Noire Rockstar's Epic 1940's Gum Shoe Story.

So I've been playing this little game called LA Noire and when I say little I mean 3 disc's for the 360? With that being said the 3 disc's are well worth the sacrifice, the game is rich with the feel of 1940's LA. The over all presentation of this game is unmistakable! The investigation's are gripping you truly feel like your a member of CSI, well 1940's CSI but still CSI all the same. The only draw back to this game is the amount of time you spend driving around! "no fast travel" here?? But that's very minor with how rich this game is on content, the crowning achievement of this game is the facial expressions and body language expressed by the AI! This is a must play for anyone that is a fan of a chose your own adventure game mix'ed with action I'am giving this a 9 out of 10! Oh and don't forget we have DLC coning up very soon.

Long Time No Blog???

So Yeah its been awhile!? Don't ask... So what all has happened whelp lets recap. Hackers, E3, a new look for the blog and a ton of new games!! The hacking community has gone APE shit as of late "thanks Sony!" as I'm sure you're all aware of Sony's PSN outage has sparked a hacking out lash after they targeted a lone box modder and called out the hacking community! Looks like they got what they were asking for. Now a group called Lulzsec is taking phone hacking requests?! no joke...
So then that brings us to L.A. Noire that sucked me in for nearly a month if you haven't play'ed it then go out and grab a copy!! 10 out of 10 in my book! And of coarse last but not least there was E3 2011 last week, lots of great stuff coming up! The top three games of E3 are Elder scrolls 5. Mass Effect 3 and Modern Warfare 3! I will of coarse be adding the game play forage of all three in case you missed them. Chime in and let everyone know what your fav from E3 was this year!

Beyond Black Mesa... Half Life Inspired Film Short

Beyond Black Mesa fan inspired short film which plays on Gordon Freeman and the Half Life series. I must say this is most likely the very best short film I've seen to date and even with the acting being a little cheesy if these 7 friends, film students filmed a full movie of this I would pay good money to go see it!! Amazing.....
