The original Motorstorm was an oddly controversial title. Odd because who ever considers racing games controversial? Still, Sony managed to make it just that by over hyping and delivering a disappointing demo that wasn’t quite up to the finished product.
Let’s just clear the air right from the start–Baseball Mogul 2009 is not for the arcade crowd. It’s a stats-loving geek’s dream come true, but it will likely not appeal to most fans of baseball video games. That being said, those that do fall within its target demographic will find a very enjoyable game with a few unfortunate stumbles.
As noted, the Baseball Mogul series is for those who subscribe to Baseball Weekly, or are just really into fantasy baseball leagues. It’s essentially the franchise mode of any console baseball game without the excitement of occasionally stepping up to the plate. Instead, the excitement comes from a well done trade or watching a draft pick make their way from the single A ball all the way to a starting spot in the majors.
In keeping with the spirit of the Super Smash Bros. Brawl friend code exchange, we have now added a new thread to the forums to exchange Mario Kart Wii codes. Of course, you can always just post your code into the comments below, as well. So start exchanging those codes and get out on the race course!
No, this is not the Double Dragon game you are looking for. Yes, it is the one you remember as a kid on the NES and not the arcade version you wished it was at the time. More disappointing, however, is that it’s not the vastly superior Double Dragon II. Oh well, perhaps another day. Still, the original is a decent game, but with so many better brawlers out there, such as Double Dragon II and Final Fight, its fond memories are best left in the past.
Ever wondered what some folks did before video games? Before they had a DS or a Wii to draw all those pretty graphics for them? Well, they drew their own. It seems some folks simply can’t give up that old lifestyle, though, as they’ve taken to creating their own hand drawn video games. In this case, you get a pretty fun animation of Mario drawn on the fly.
If there’s one thing that keeps Halo 3 fresh, it’s the opportunity to kill your teammates in wonderfully wild, inventive manners. Yes, your teammates. Killing the other guy is so last gen. Anyway, here are two of the best betrayal videos out there.
How do you choose between two classic titles? One is very likely the ultimate beat-em-up of the 8-bit era, and the other is the least appealing of a classic RPG franchise. Oh wait–never mind. River City Ransom is the clear choice this week. The fact that a decent, comparable follow-up hasn’t made its way into the modern era is beyond belief for one of the NES’s true cult classics.
What does the diminutive Wii need more than anything? Not so fast with talk of a hard drive! No, what it really needs is its own personal seven inch screen. That way you can feel even more like a giant while playing it!
Chinavision has head your cries and delivered just such a product. The seven inch monitor is similar to those that have been released in the past for the PS2 and Xbox. It conveniently (at least in pictures) attaches to the system, features stereo speakers, auxiliary AV connectors, and 480×234 resolution.
Johnny Lee is a nerd’s nerd. He wasn’t simply satisfied with owning the hard to find Wii. No, Mr. Lee wanted to make a cool little gaming system even cooler. And he succeeded. That’s a nerd’s nerd.
Specifically, Mr. Lee is behind the famous tech demo using a pair of glasses to make the Wii present actual 3D images using head tracking software. In turn, this technique will now be used in Electronic Arts Boom Blox title. Not too shabby Mr. Lee, but he wasn’t done there. A new tech demo shows off using the Wii as a virtual whiteboard, a use that Lee notes could save schools thousands of dollars. Again, not too shabby.
Here’s something that nobody really seemed to be asking for. What if there was a way to integrate the PS3 with the iPhone? That way, you would never have to put down your new gadget iPhone, even when playing with your new gadget PS3.
Don’t ask and you shall receive. NetBlender is announcing that their BD Touch tehcnology allows for two-way connectivity between the PS3 and iPhone, at least when it comes to the Blu-ray playing capabilities. Sound neat? Well, the potential uses are…sort of.
