Rainbow 6 - Vegas: My character

Friday, March 23rd, 2007
So I’m a bit of geek? Yeah, alright, I’ll take that! Is that my face mapped onto a character in the game? Yes it is. So I’m a geek, but I’m a geek with a personal online dude! Oh yeah!

If you have an xbox360, and the webcam that comes with it, certain games let you use it, Rainbow6-Vegas is one such game.

Pure brilliance!

Hot diggedy-damn. Look at this engine! This is from the creators of FarCry, their new game engine was shown recently at the Game Developers Conference 2007. The physics engine is amazing, I can’t wait to try this out.

Spore!

Tuesday, March 21st, 2006

This is quite possibly one of the coolest games I’ve ever seen. Do you remember Evo from SNES? Well the concept is similar at the start, albeit a much more advanced version of it, but that shared evolution concept is all that’s similar, Spore then adds many, many other concepts borrowed from all sorts of great games. It blends ideas (all seamlessly it seems) from Evo, to Populous, Civilization, SimCity, to Risk. This could become one of the greatest games ever I tell ya! I can’t wait to try it out. This game is so far ahead of anything I’ve ever seen in terms of scope, it’s ridiculous. There’s a video on google from a 2005 demo, it’s long but worth checking out.

Battlefield 2

Wednesday, September 28th, 2005

Just a prelude, I was a Tribes fanatic.. There I said it. I loved that game and that game loved me. NO other game has ever taken my interest or time as much as it. Then Tribes 2 came out which was good, but I never got into it like the original. Other Tribes games came out and I haven’t even bothered playing them. No other game that I’ve seen or played engaged me the same way as my good ol’ friend Tribes did…

Then one day came a game called Battlefield 1942. BF1942 was the closest thing to experiencing the joy of Tribes, and I played many a long night with her. Then the relationship tapered off, we just out grew eachother I guess. But her younger, hot sister Battlefield 2 has been released this year, and hot damn! I’m lovin it.

Now I can never afford to ever become as engrossed in any game again as much as Tribes again(a family, kids, and work will do that to you), but I can still have moments of pure gaming joy, and Battlefield 2 will deliver that!… Once you patch the game, figure out system hiccups and all.. but after all of that, a great game awaits I swear! There are a ton of links and reviews on the net, just google it. But this mans opinion says… Great stuff! Check it out!
