Review of Street Figher II HD Remix

Posted by Tim On February - 24 - 2009

Interestingly enough, I dumped some cash into points the past weekend to purchase Street Fighter II: HD Remix at the recommendation of three different friends who wanted to pwn me old-school. So, being an avid SF:II player back in the day I acquiesced. Ten minutes later I was jumping in to something that made me question my experience from over ten years ago.

My new Antworks Ant Farm

Posted by Tim On February - 24 - 2009

Okay so I’m a big nerd and spend waaaay too much time doing big nerd things sometimes. One of my very favorite websites for cool stuff is ThinkGeek I bought things from them in the past, but lately I’ve been addicted to the site. I actually bought my wife’s birthday/valentine’s day presents from there as well as some cool desk stuff to make my day not nearly as boring as it normally is. Here’s what I bought:

First Look: Lost World 2 Trailer

Posted by Tim On February - 24 - 2009

Now I don’t know how many of you logged on to XBox Live! last night, but I imagine those that did weren’t able to resist clicking on a teasing Capcom Announcement. If you gave in to that base urge, you were treated to an extensive Lost World 2 trailer. I had to say I was pretty impressed. The gameplay looked similar to Lost World, yet prettier but honestly not much else besides to give much indication of what other changes are going to be. There is obviously a co-op mode in this iteration, which is almost always a welcome addition. If its done right. Capcom has done pretty well so far this year and its just started.

I was happy to see that the lack of run ‘n gun has been restricted to RE5.

I’m interested to see what else is going on here. Please let me know what you thought of the trailer in a comment!

*SITE MAINTENANCE THIS WEEKEND*

Posted by Tim On February - 13 - 2009

Just a heads up, sometime Saturday night or Sunday the site will be down while I perform some maintenance on the site and my other domains. Essentially I’m having trouble getting good stats with my programs because of the way I have it set up. The suggestions I’m getting say that I need to make these changes since this site is now my hub for all others.

Thanks for your patience and I apologize for having to take the site down at all. I will have backups just in case I really screw things up and need to do so.

About Me

Yo I\'m Tim - I love playing games, writing, and giving opinions about games. Bet you probably could have guessed that, eh? I\'m currently studying towards a Game and Simulation Programming degree, hoping to finish by 2012. Its my dream to be in the game industry, doing AI or anything else, really. Meanwhile, I\'ll be here posting about the games I purchase and the games I\'m fortunate enough to be asked to review. If there\'s a game you want to see, drop me a line. Lastly, I’d like to drop a shout to those who\'ve inspired me somewhere along the way: GiantBomb.com, eat-sleep-game.com, cheapassgamer.com. These guys are some of the funniest and most interesting game podcast crews out there and I just want to say thanks for keeping us laughing.
