Does anyone else feel like these gaming companies are withholding a lot of content from their games just to release it a month later with yet another price tag on it? If we gamers were smart we would not pay for this content. You buy a $60.00 game and then a month later they want you to spend another $10 and then another $10 to where your game is going to end up costing you over $100 for a game that they should have had that much content in there to begin with. The reason that they are getting away with this kind of behavior is because we are encouraging it by actually buying and paying for this content! We need to come together and say we won’t pay for parts of games they are leaving out intentionally so that they can make extra money!

I read this quote and I thought it was pretty funny:

A sure cure for seasickness is to sit under a tree — Spike Milligan

Anyways, sorry that I have been away for a bit, but I am back for the moment.  You know how some of us get addicted to video games.  Since I quit World of Warcraft I have been looking for something different to play where people do not depend on me to be around and I have been playing Culdecept Saga for the Xbox 360.  I actually got addicted to this little video game, and I recommend it even though the graphics are not super awesome it is a fun game in general.

I got a copy of Command and Conquer for the Xbox 360. Game is great and one of the best RTS games around. Online play is 4 players and the 1 player had me going for about 10 ours before i had crash. C&C has a long standing franchise that has always made top notch sequels. If you got some spare $ grap a copy.

Update: Played the multiplayer online and well, it was not very much fun. The people who play it attack in a manner that makes the game boring, there is no big battle, just a quick air raid.

I have been playing Halo 3 for about a week now and if you have not got your copy yet then you are just insane. The game is a freakin blast and everyone on the 360 has been only playing that. It seems that all other games have became obsolete. At least rent the game to check it out. Everyone i know online is playing the game, it is insane.

Target is going to have them this coming Sunday, they already have them in stock and a decent amount at that. Most Target stores do no do vouchers or tickets it is first come first serve so get there early. I found out that they are going to have roughly 36 per store  so there should be plenty as long as you get there in a reasonable time on Sunday. Just wanted to give a heads up.

Ok just a heads up when you are going after skill level on Halo 3 go for Lone Wolves, you gain skill so quickly and easily. In standard matches you have to beat the other team and if you are lucky you get a skill point if you win. Go into lone wolves and pretty much as long as you are not last you will earn skill, i played 6 games, didnt get last place in any and got skill level 10. It goes quick.

Stuntman is a fun lil driver game. Basically you are a stuntman and you star your career with a commercial. You work your way through movies. You can build a ton of custom track to play around on and there is a ton of unlockables. This was more of a renter than a buyer and it didn’t entertain me long enough to justify the $60 purchase. However it is a great game for kids but was pretty difficult to master. Everything is repetitive.

Ok so, i sucked it up last Saturday and went to toys r us. They had a buy 2 get one free on all games so i got Command and Conquer, Thrillville and Stuntman for the 360. And the game i am playing is well, Thrillville, the kiddie game. It is mildly addictive and can keep you busy for hours. You build coasters, manage the park, build rides etc. You can play and ride everything in your park. It is a great game if you have kids so you can pretend you are not the one playing.

Dont forget over at Bungie.net they give you complete stats, how many kills, your records, deaths, everything.  They even keep track of all your medals. Check it out and get signed up. Plus you get the nifty icon by your name. They use the Microsoft Passport system so it links up with your game. The system is great and i just love keeping track of all my info.

AC6 hits in a few days and costs the normal 60 bucks. But if you are a true gamer you can get the pimp package that comes with the flight controls. It runs about 150$ and is well worth it if you are into flight combat. They are even going to have fighter matches up to 16 players. This is truly going to be an insane event on the 360.
