Top Spin 3 (Xbox 360 Demo)
I love tennis games. One of my favorite games on the Sega Dreamcast console was their Virtua Tennis title. It was a completely wonderful game, regardless of genre. Wii Sports Tennis is less serious, as it’s more of an excuse to flail around in a silly manner, and we’ve already mentioned Grand Slam Tennis for the Wii. When I saw that Top Spin 3 was an available demo, I downloaded it...[Read More]
Demo Reviews
Getting tired of seeing demo reviews instead of full game reviews? Well, do something about it! Send us full copies of new games for the Xbox 360, and we’ll review the fuck out of them! In the meantime, however, our broke asses will continue reviewing what we can get our hands on, which, unfortunately, primarily consists of free demos.
Ninja Gaiden II (Xbox 360 Demo)
When I downloaded the Ghostbusters: The Video Game demo for my Xbox 360, I mentioned that it was only one of the few demos I had downloaded. Ninja Gaiden II was another of those demos, and I took some time today to try it out. I’ve been a fan of the Ninja Gaiden series since its days on the original NES, so I was looking forward to this demo very much. As I was browsing the Options menu, l...[Read More]
Ghostbusters: The Video Game (Xbox 360 Demo)
Last night, after playing through the Wolverine: Origins demo again (I WANT THAT GAME), I downloaded a few more demos to try out. The first one I downloaded was the Ghostbusters: The Video Game demo. I had heard very good things about it. I also heard that it was, essentially, the third installment of the movie series. As a huge fan of the movies (at least the first one), I had to give it a sh...[Read More]
Happy Bungie Day!
Today, for all you Halo fans, is Bungie Day. The creators of the Halo series, Bungie, have an affinity for the number 7. Since today is 7/7/09 that makes it Bungie Day! If you own Halo 3 and have an Xbox Live account, you can go into the special playlist “Bungie vs. The World” so that you can be matched up with some of the Bungie staff. If you win the round with them, you will be award...[Read More]
Wolverine: Origins (Xbox 360 Demo)
Over the weekend, we downloaded the Wolverine: Origins demo on our Xbox 360. I am generally hesitant of movie adaptations, but Lindsey had seen some gameplay footage, and I had read a great deal about the game, so we felt it would be a fun, free demo. I gave it a shot on Sunday night, and was immediately impressed by the graphics. The introductory FMV does a good job of introducing the characte...[Read More]
Grand Slam Tennis – Wii
Viewing Review – Before I go into my review for Grand Slam Tennis, I want to let you guys and gals know that I am not too keen on sports games. I have never been athletically inclined, and I’ve found most sports to be boring. Tennis is a sport that I would never play in real life. I’m just too lazy to run back and forth on the court just to hit a ball, so that brings me to video ...[Read More]
Xbox 360 Elite
Yesterday, we joined the ranks of Xbox 360 owners. Even more exclusively, we are a proud owner of an Xbox 360 Elite console. We received it as a joint birthday gift yesterday from my mother (Lindsey’s birthday is tomorrow, mine is in October). As an added gift, Chris & Kelly purchased The Orange Box for Lindsey’s birthday. To complete our day, we rounded up all of the games we ...[Read More]
WoW, Just WoW Pt. 2
Some of you might remember my post from 6 days ago about the kid freaking out that his Mom cancelled his World of Warcraft account. Apparently it wasn’t, but that just means we are given the opportunity to laugh some more at this sad kid and his addiction to WoW. This morning I get up, get on AIM, and Chris sends me a link to this wonderful gem on Youtube…. youtube::WWBfLOZ2CjQ:: I wi...[Read More]
Yosumin!
Today I was bored and felt like playing something fun. I remembered some people on Twitter telling me about Steam and how you can download free demos. You guys have probably figured out by now that I love free stuff, so if I could entertain myself and pass the time for free… you bet your sweet ass I was going to. So I went to the Steam website and came across a demo I found interesting. Afte...[Read More]
WoW, just WoW
Normally I don’t look at links that are posted on Twitter, but when I saw a recent post from Ashton Kutcher about a kid having a love for World of Warcraft… my curiosity was intrigued. At first I thought that it was going to be just another video of some poor kid sitting in front of his computer, getting his jollies off to a female WoW character. What I got was far better than I could&...[Read More]
Dead Rising: Chop Til’ You Drop – Wii
I love zombie games. I love zombie movies. I would go so far as to say that you can all start calling me Zombzi. That’s how much I love seeing those mindless, undead creatures get their heads ripped off. A few days ago we rented, from Blockbuster, a copy of Dead Rising: Chop Til You Drop for the Wii. I’ve been wanting to play a version of Dead Rising for ages, and since we lack a 360 r...[Read More]
