BLAST PROCESSING! Episode 97 – Portals, Parkour, and one other P-word.

By Steve Power on May 12, 2011

Join Steve and Jon as they once again waste your time with thoughts on Portal 2, Brink, Socom 4, Some crazy Japanese RPG for the Nintendo DS, and Nascar: 2011: THE GAME!

In the news, all the talk is focused on the Playstation Network Crisis (Day 19!) with commentary from our war correspondent on the frontlines: Jack Bastard: Ass Kicker.

There’s also some excitement generated by a host of announcments from the Namco-Bandai camp this past week, including a locked down release window for Dark Souls (“Spiritual successor” to Steve’s game of 2009 – Demon’s Souls) which will be coming in a nice special edition. We love special editions!

God of War 3 Demo Has Anger Management Problems

By Dave on December 21, 2009

gow3

I recently played through the first taste of Sony’s forthcoming, highly-anticipated Olympian brawler. Like anyone else who’s sucked up the joy of dismembering mythological creatures in the previous God of War installments, I’ve been jacked for this third, next-gen tale of Kratos and his seemingly unquenchable desire to impale bystanders.

So what would the demo hold? Is this merely a high-def enhanced version of the formula or has Sony cooked up something totally new for the big PS3 debut?

Gunbird 2 Coming to the PSP, Brain-Humping Lunacy in Tow

By Dave on December 18, 2009

Via Kotaku, news comes out that PM Studios is bringing Gunbird 2 to the PSP. Now there hasn’t been much on Sony’s portable that I’ve found compelling enough to shell out the sheckels for, but this, my friends, makes it tempting.

Gunbird 2 is, essentially, the most bat-&#$% insane shooter ever forged. I became engrossed with it when it came to the Dreamcast and everyone I’ve forced to try it has also fallen under its spell. It takes like nine minutes to complete, but features some of the most incoherent (read: awesome) storylines ever. Pro-tip: match chibby flying-carpet straddler Hei Cob with anyone and strap in for an endless march of fat jokes.

Review: Uncharted 2 — Among Thieves (Single-Player) (PS3)

By Dave on October 19, 2009

The Charge:

“Aw crap.”

Opening Statement:

Back in the early days of my PS3 ownership, Uncharted: Drake’s Fortune was the first game I played. It immediately shot to the top 3 of my favorite-for-this-gen list of games. I had never before seen such a masterful approach to cinematic gaming; the folks at Naughty Dog has crafted the finest game/movie hybrid effort ever, mixing quality gameplay with an engrossing story and memorable characters.

Needless to say, since the announcement of Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, I have been gripped in a churning excitement, restless with the anticipation of what delights Naughty Dog has cooked up this go-round. Click the jump for the review.
