BLAST PROCESSING! Episode 70: Welcome to Earth!

In a world where your life is no longer your own…

Steve, Jon, Adam, and Erich, our Token American(patent pending) invite you to partake of our spirited discussion on the timely topic of internet privacy as it relates to Blizzards World of Warcraft and Starcraft II Internet Forums. Is it really that big of a thing that they’re making people use their real names?
But first, You must wander through the usual mire and muck of what we’ve been playing, what we’ve been buying but not playing, why Blast Processing has a restraining order against Mrs. Adam, what Erich thinks of OnLive and Alan Wake, Jon’s opinion of The Mega Man Zero Collection, and what awesome item Erich purchased last weekend! Hint: It is awesome!
We also celebrate the one and only holiday that’s all about Presidents who fly fighter planes and punching Aliens right in their stupid faces by waxing nostalgic about some of the great (and awful) games from Arcades past that have yet to appear in some form of home collection. There are also the usual offensive bits about female WoW players and Mac Gamers.

How do you feel about Blizzard’s new stance on anonymity? Did you read Jon’s Sin and Punishment review? Are you mad at Steve for his insensitive comments about women who play WoW? Why not let us know over in the DVD Verdict Jury Room forums, or by emailing at feedback@pixelverdict.com.

Symposium ad Nauseum: Ninjas

Photobucket

I have little else to offer here.  The subject line speaks for itself.  Ninjas in video games.

Also, I promise no mention of Ninja Gaiden, at least not from me…

Happy Memorial Day

memorial-day

To all our American readers, happy Memorial Day! For at least half our staff, this is a day of remembrance and delicious barbecue, although I’m not sure what the two have to do with one another.

How will you all be spending your day? For most, this is a blissful day off work, and if you read our site, odds are you’ll be doing some gaming today. So what will you be gaming? Leave a comment below and let us know.

HD Remix of Marvel vs. Capcom 2 in works?

marvel-vs-capcom-2

After the cash cow success of Street Fighter 2 getting the HD treatment, Capcom has been mum on which game will be getting the next treatment (though they have dropped hints that there will be next games). Based on chatter, a HD Remix is looking increasingly likely for Marvel vs. Capcom 2, and soon.

Fighting purists may snark on the elaborately over-the-top combat system, the 3-on-3 fights where 200-hit combos are not uncommon, and the complete and utter lack of canon uniting characters from all manner of video games and comic franchises into a battle royale, but so what? MVC2 is one of the main reasons why I hold the Dreamcast in such high regard. It’s a fantastic brawler, and a HD remix would be groin-grabbingly amazing.

Solid details are still forthcoming, but prying eyes have uncovered possible achievements appearing for the game, a hopeful sign of things to come. With a bit of luck, we’ll all be sitting around soon on XBLA having our butts handed to us by some fifteen year-old Korean kid, using Cable like a cheap bastard. Personally, I can’t wait. I’m masochistic like that.

Rare Antiquities: Final Fantasy VII

rare_title1

Welcome to Rare Antiquities, where we hope to shed a little light on some of those classic, hard-to-find gems that pull in huge buckeroos on sites like Amazon.com and Ebay. For our inaugural column we felt we should go with a title that’s become somewhat difficult to track down in recent years, and yet remains a powerful presence in gaming culture:

Final Fantasy VII is a game that needs little introduction. Squaresoft’s epic Role-playing game dropped in early 1997 in Japanese markets, and was already a multi-million selling blockbuster by the time North American retailers were breaking the September 7th street date to keep demanding fans appeased.
