I’m just starting into Prey for the 360, so I thought I’d give everyone a few pictures we got in the Press Pack. I’m sure you’ve seen them before, but just in case you haven’t.Click Read More to see them…

In the world of gaming, there will always be the dreaded console wars. Some gamers that are "fanboys" of a certain system gladly embrace this war in the hopes that the console they love will be in front when new consoles are released. Some say the Xbox 360 was released far too early. Some say the PS3 is too overpriced for a next gen console. Some say that the Wii is too childish for their tastes. These three people all have the same thing in common, they are fanboys. Then there are the people that hate the whole idea of…

Saw the film earlier today in 3D Imax. I am in awe of its awesomeness. I know fans and critics are divided on how they feel. All I know is that I absolutely love Superman Returns. I felt that all performances were strong, especially James Marsden, Kevin Spacey, and Brandon Routh. Oh my god…Brandon Routh. I really felt he was Clark Kent, I really felt he was Superman.The film is absolutely beautiful. The Daily Planet looks incredible. The special effects were for the most part, not even noticeable. I thought almost everything looked real. Brandon Routh actually looked like he…

I just wanted to brief you all on some things that will be happening in the coming weeks. I just finished all of my finals for school, and school thankfully is now over for me. This means I can put most of my time into finishing a few games and will hopefully get reviews for those games up right afterwards. Other staff members will be reviewing games soon as well so be sure to check out the review section of the site later on to read them.By the looks of the voting in the forums, it looks like the new time…

If you haven’t checked out the latest gameshow, please do so on the previous post, or here…Well, summer’s here. It’s been damn hot. I especially love staying in a nice cool air conditioned area playing my DS Lite. Speaking of DS…Go NintendoFinal Fantasy III for the DS is Nintendo Wi-Fi compatible! No word yet on exactly how it will be playable.IGN BoardsApparently the upcoming issue of Game Informer reports that Red Steel has recently been tweaked."Not only did the remote replicate our actual sword-slashes, but the recenty unveiled motion sensor in the nunchuck could be thrust foreward for parry attacks.""As…

Check this out, "Microsoft’s Matt Lee, a software engineer for the Game Technology Group, doesn’t believe the Cell chip has been designed with gaming in mind; he says certain aspects of the Sony chip make it unsuited for running game code. He also believes Xbox 360 and PS3 are about equal in terms of performance.""In particular, Lee said that the Cell processor’s Synergistic Processor Elements (SPEs) make the chip more suitable for other operations, not necessarily gaming. ‘ "I don’t think the Cell is as well designed for game development as Sony would have you believe. Some aspects of the…

I seem to have caught the stomach flu.. I’d love to do the show but then I’d be making pretty steady trips to the bathroom. We’re going to do a make up show on Tuesday, I believe. We’ll keep you posted on the front page.

It came back exactly the way it left: Plastic bagged and cardboard boxed. Yeah, I finally got my 360 back.It works, no question, though wish I would’ve thought to mark it somehow, tell if it was replaced or repaired. I was halfway hoping they’d include a couple months of Live or something, consolation for losing my ‘box in the Lone Star state. Nope, nothing, though getting it running again was painless, thanks to the detachable hard drive that I kept while the ‘box was away.In other news, I took the time to download Half Life 2: Lost Coast. It’s not…

Nintendo cleaned up at this year’s Best of E3 Game Critics Awards. The Wii was honored with "Best of Show" and "Best Hardware,"It was only a matter of time until we knew what the Wii was packing. Nintendo took away best of show and best hardware for the Wii. Even doing better than the PS3 and the long anticipated game and Will Wrights baby, "Spore". Nintendo is showing that in the gaming world, originality and hard work will win in the end."Nintendo’s Wii console took top honors by beating out some stiff competition in Will Wright’s Spore, Microsoft’s and Epic’s Gears…

My 360! It’s back in Tex-ass now, after floating around the Midwest for the better part of three weeks. Apparently they fixed it, shipped it here, tried to deliver it (I wasn’t there to pick it up – E3), tried again, couldn’t find the address, sat on it for a week, and sent it back to Texas. Only then did someone try to contact me, a nice lady from Microsoft, explaining the sad story.It’s puzzling, how one guy could find my place, but not the other. I mean, it’s not like I live in the middle of a suburban maze,…

Check back late tonight for my E3 post. I’m having trouble loading pictures because there are so many of them. I think there are 108 pictures I’m putting up, and that’s only part one! Here’s a pic that I like…

I think I got poison ivy or something. My arms are getting mutated with itchy bumps. Speaking of mutations, X-Men: The Last Stand will be released tommorow. I will be watching it not because I think it will be as good as the previous ones, but for pure entertainment. I'm sure the action sequences will be awesome, but I don't expect much this time around for the character interaction, dialogue, and plot. Alright, so here's part one of my E3 stuff. Stay tuned, as there are still more pics and more importantly, video to be posted.
