Pink Mist Bitches! Sniper: Ghost Warrior is Back With # 2 and Hits Stores August 2012 Have you found yourself growing tired lately of  only seeing rotting, flesh-eating zombies taking head-shots and seeing the bits of  the mushy, clotted skull-snot that passes for their brains blow outward like a case of really bad food-poisoning?? Yeah, that never gets old for me neither. But then some fresh blood and non-decayed gray matter decorating the landscape as well as the guy’s buddy and his freshly washed uniform might be a nice and amusing change of pace for a while.

Videogame Soundtrack Reviews: Saints Row III, Kingdoms of Amalur- Reckoning, Red Orchestra 2, and Deus Ex Part 4: Deus Ex I was somewhat anticipating this soundtrack to be my favorite so I had decided to save the best for last. Of course that meant I would have the most trouble with it; as that is always how it goes with me.  

Videogame Soundtrack Reviews: Saints Row III, Kingdoms of Amalur- Reckoning, Red Orchestra 2, and Deus Ex Part 3: Red Orchestra 2 I always have a certain amount of reluctance getting into games based on wars from our actual history. I know how popular they are and how tiresome and difficult it surely becomes to try and think of military or combat videogames based entirely on fantasy; yet I can’t seem to get behind them. I think it’s simply a personal thing on my behalf and it’s entirely likely that if I started to play a really, really good one I’d end up getting sucked in and addicted to it, thereby enjoying it almost against my will.  

Videogame Soundtrack Reviews: Saints Row III,  Kingdoms of Amalur- Reckoning, Red Orchestra 2, and Deus Ex Part 2:  Kingdoms of Amalur- Reckoning Not everyone is into the notion of magical, medieval worlds full of fierce wild creatures and epic quests fraught with danger, faeries, and dragons that are all part of a grand destiny that can not be avoided. There is usually a very complex back-story to each element, a full and detailed history of the realm, and sometimes even complete languages for different the races of creature. It can be overwhelming to have to take in and remember so much detail in order to follow the plot of a film, let alone maneuver through that world as a character yourself!  It can also... 

Videogame Soundtrack Reviews: Saints Row III, Red Orchestra 2, Kingdoms of Amalur- Reckoning, and Deus Ex Part 1: Saints Row III I’ve always been a fan of movie soundtracks and I own quite a few. A good soundtrack can set the tone for a film and make one that may otherwise have been merely interesting into something extraordinary.

Soulcalibur V Gallery #2: In-Game Character Art & Scenery/Setting: There are some shots of the characters from scenes inside the game, as well as a few of the stages that will be available as fighting platforms. In my opinion the  Soulcalibur series has by far the most beautiful and detailed characters and backgrounds, particularly for a PvP fighting game, and I have way too much fun changing the outfits and designing custom characters. #gallery-2 { margin: auto; } #gallery-2 .gallery-item { float: left; margin-top: 10px; text-align: center; width: 25%; } #gallery-2 img { border: 2px solid #cfcfcf; } #gallery-2 .gallery-caption { margin-left:...

To celebrate the release of Soulcalibur V for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, Katana-wielding  Mitsurugi and sword-fighting Pyrrha have been engraved in granite on a mountain in Tanum, Sweden. The creators describe this game as tougher than anything that has gone before it – and have cut the two characters into the Earth to prove it. “Everyone knows the Soulcalibur characters are among the hardest fighters in gaming – so we’ve decided to immortalize them in granite for thousands of years” says Lee Kirton, marketing director, Namco Bandai. “These characters have only ever existed digitally, so it’s brilliant to record them permanently in a format which will remain visible until the end of time.” Master...
