Click Here for a Screen Shot Slide Show Finally, a wrestling video game that is worth a crap!!!!!!!! The new Legends of Wrestlemania for the Xbox 360 and PS3 is out and kick ass. As soon as I saw the ad for this game I knew it was going to be great and I wasn't disappointed. The game is more like arcade versions of wrestling game which makes it a little easier to play. But enough of that lets talk about what it has. You can create a legend, but in the past that has kind of sucked, and it takes forever to get your guy to be worth a shit. So instead they give you all of the great wrestlers that you have been wanting to have on your game. Before we talk about who's on it, you can also have singles matches, tag team, steel cage, ladder matchs, Hell in a Cell and even the Royal Rumble. But here is the best part. If you like wrestling, not this new shit out there, but true legends then this is the game for you. Sure it has Hulk Hogan and Andre the Giant. But also it has the Rock, the Junkyard Dog, the Iron Shiek, Rowdy Roddy Piper, and then the two GREATEST wrestlers to ever live. The Amercian Dream Dusty Rhodes, and the toughest Son of a bitch to ever walk in a ring STONE COLD STEVE AUSTIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Finally you can have Stone Cold whoop Hulk Hogan's cheesy ass. If your a wrestling fan like me, this truly is the GREATEST wrestling game to EVER come out!!!!!!!!!! AND THAT'S THE BOTTOM LINE, CAUSE STONE COLD SAID SO!!!!!!!!!!!!

TIGER WOODS '09 PREVIEW

Ok, so the game I have been waiting for to come out is here.  Even though Tigers knee is hurt you can still play his game.  Tiger Woods 09 is available, and there are all kind of cool things to do on the game.  I haven't played it yet because I have to wait for my birthday which by the way is next week if anyone wants to drop off expensive gifts for me, or Rob because it's his birthday too.  Some of the new courses on the game include Carnoustie, which will be nice to have another British Open course, the Sheshan golf course, which I have NO idea where that is, and one of my favorite golf course that I have ever played in Mesquite, NV Wolf Creek.  Plus a Gary Player course in South Africa.  Many of the same players are on the game including new this year Darren Clarke, and crap bag Se Ri Pak, because the game needed ANOTHER female golfer.

Performance Coach The TOUR pros have their own coaches and now you do too. Tiger Woods real life coach Hank Haney will guide you through your career right from the start, helping you improve your skills. Performance Feedback Coach Haney will constantly be watching your performance and assessing areas for improvement, providing you tips and drills to increase your skills. All-New Online Simultaneous Play Compete in a live four person round in the time it takes to play a single-player round. Ball trail visuals indicate your competitors' shots, allowing you to swing whenever you're ready. It's available on both Playstations, Xbox 360 and the Wii system, which wouldn't be too bad of a birthday present, even though it's a little too physical for my video game liking.  By the way I will master this game hopefully in the first couple of weeks and be ready for next years edition to come out.

	MADDEN 2009
Well, the long wait is over!!!!!!!!  Madden 09, the 20th Anniversay is out and I got my copy.  I decided to get the one for the Playstation 2 because I like to play games in bed and the Playstation is up in the bedroom.  I have to tell you that you almost have to be an NFL coach to be able to figure some of the shit out on this game.  All I want to do is play and throw long touchdown passes to T. O.  By the way, I did that against not only the Browns, but the Patriots and Packers as well.  Oh yea, and the Jets too. As you can see Brett Farve is on the cover of the game, but when you play against the Packers Aarron Rodgers is the starting quarterback.  So I ended that game and started one with the Jets, and Farve isn't on that team either.  He's not even on the Free Agent list.  I wouldn't sign him, I just wanted to break his leg on the game.  The game is a whole lot faster than the previous years, including a way to simulate a down, a possesion or even a whole quarter just to speed things up.  Sure you can call Hot Routes, and all that shit, but like I said I just want to go DEEP!!!!!!!!!!
I have started a Franchise season and do NOT want to play the Pre-Season games.  I went through some of the training camp shit, and let me tell you what a pain in the ass that is.  You have to knock balls down, catch balls, hit targets and block.  Just give me the damn game. The other thing that I hated about the game was that the ALL TIME Cowboys numbers were all screwed up.  I don't know who the quarterback and running backs are supposed to be.  Why can't they just use the numbers to begin with??????  That part really sucked but I am looking forward to winning the Superbowl in about 3 days.  Please do not write the show and ask if I play online, I don't because I don't want to get killed by some guy living in his parents basement in Iowa, and by killed I mean he will hunt me down after I WHOOP HIS ASS ON THE GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  How 'BOUT THEM COWBOYS!!!!!!!!!!

GRAND THEFT AUTO IV - Review Continued
Ok, so I have really started to get into the game now and started taking on more and more missions.  I know that I'm behind everyone who is good at this game but I do enjoy just killing random people and then out running the police.  I did what listners told me to do and went to the hospital and at point blank range BLAMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!  With the sawed off shotgun to some guy in the ICU.  It was awesome, then the cops were called and I had to flee the scene of the crime.  I couldn't find the ATM to rob people but I will take care of that this weekend.  I have finally killed a hooker, we did our buisness, and let me say I like that now you can choose how much you spend on her.  I spent the most, like $70 and then as soon as she got out of the car I hit her with a baseball bat and got my money back, too bad the cops were waiting for me and then I had to kill a couple of them to get away.  The only thing I don't like about the game is if you have to leave the house after playing for an hour or two.  You really want to just drive crazy and run people over.  Well, that could be just me too.

GRAND THEFT AUTO IV - REVIEW
Well, finally a new game that is worth a crap has finally come out.  Grand Theft Auto 4, Liberty City.  Which by the way is New York City.  You play some sort of immigrant that just gets off the boat and is out to help is cousin.  His cousin says that he has made it big in America, but really hasn't.  He drives a cab, I know shocking, but it's still funny.  The thing about this game so far is that there is a ton of driving in the game, and I love running people over.  The cool thing is that when your car comes to a stop at the end of a segment you can see all the blood and damage from running over the people.  I'm sad to report that I have not got to kill a hooker just yet but I am trying.  I got to go on a date with some chick but she didn't give it up and I don't think that you can kill her.  The best kill scene so far is when I chased some guy down, and then stabbed him a bunch of times, then kicked him in the back of the head and pushed him off the fourth floor of some abandoned building.  I am looking forward to the car bombs that you can leave, hopefully you get to blow up some monuments in Liberty City like a museum or something like that.  I will keep you updated as I proceed.

April 9th, 2008

GRAND THEFT AUTO IV - PREVIEW
Ok, so on April 29th the latest in the Grand Theft Auto series comes out.   Grand Theft Auto IV,  Liberty City.  It's based in New York City (New York City???????).  The headline on the website is Liberty City, at least were not as racist as the Midwest.   This looks like its going to be another amazingly violent game from Rockstar games.  Here's a look at what to expect from the new edition.  It's going to be available for the Xbox 360 and the Playstation 2 and 3.  Get ready to call in sick on the 30th.

MANHUNT 2 Continued...
Ok, so I know that last week I gave you my first thoughts of the new game from Rockstar, Manhunt 2.  After really sinking my teeth in the game I can say that it IS better than the first one because of all the violence.
	Sure there is a guy that throws crap at you, and pee's on you but it goes soooooooooooo much deeper than that.  Like when you go into the Sexclub and kill a guy while he is taking a leak!!!! It's AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!
When you get the axe there remember to pick up the guys head you just cut off because that is the only way to get into the secret sex dungeon where the real killing starts!!!!!!!!!!!!!
	The only thing that I have against this game is that it goes to the guns way to early.  In the last version of the game you waited a long time before you got a gun and it was a bit more fun killing guys with axes and nailguns rather than just shooting them.
Good news though is that in the new version you can still perform a gruesome execution with a gun on a guy when you sneak up on them.  I didn't kill anyone with the chainsaw or set anyone on fire yet but I still have a way to go on the game.  If you are looking for one game this year to play, I say get this one because pound for pound this is the best, most violent game I have ever played!!!!!!!!

MANHUNT 2
	Ok, so Manhunt 2 could be one of the most, let me start that over. Manhunt 2 so far is the coolest game that I have ever seen for a home gaming system.  I thought it would be hard to top the first one, but in fact they have.  Well, at least the first two scenes that I have made it through are AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Here are a few of my favorite things that I have seen so far in my playing of this VIOLENT, AMAZING GAME!!!!!!!!!!!  It takes place at a Mental Hospital, when the patients start to escape and take on male nurses that work there.  But like I said I have only made it through a couple scenes there will be way more next week, I promise.
	The second word on the game is FUCK.  Two orderlies are locking down an Asylum, and the electricity goes out and one guy says, "Holy Fuck".  Way to start the game.
The kills are waaaaaaaaaaay more graphic and cool.  I killed a guy with a shard of glass, and you start the kill by slicing a guys back, then you slit his throat, and THEN you put the glass in the guys eye and break it off.
	In a scene where your character goes back to his old home, it shows your guy shooting up drugs as well.  Oh yea, they use syringes as weapons as well.
But here is the best.  In the opening you have to learn to walk in the shadows.  If you don't the first cell that you walk by the guy inside whips IT out and starts to pee on your guy.  But wait, the next cell the guys is naked and he actually throws POOP on you. That's right he throws his CRAP all over you!!!!!!!!  AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Email me to let me know what you think about Manhunt 2

September 18, 2007

Ok, so it is finally here.  Tiger Woods '08!!!!!! I know, it came out a month ago, but I had to wait for my birthday before I could get it. I have been waiting for this to come out since beating the crap out of last years game.  As always, there are new cool things to look for this year like all-new Shot Confidence tracks your performance on every hole, round, and golf course. Based on key factors, including club selection, hole, lie, and more, dig into past performances with the Confidence Meter to identify strengths and weaknesses before every shot. Plus this year Photo Game Face, a new feature of for Playstation 3 and Xbox 360, lets you use photos of your face to create an ultra-realistic likeness of yourself in the game. Your Photo Game Face can be used with any custom golfer profile you make.

Your Photo Game Face can be used with any custom golfer profile you make. Modify your Photo Game Face just like any standard character using the tools in "My Appearance". So no more almost looking like yourself on the game, even though I am a handsome devil on the game, I did get even better looking this year.
Also they allow you to track the crappy Fed Ex Cup on points, and have even more courses than before.  Like Cog Hill, TPC Boston, East Lake and even more.  Have fun, I know I will because this is ALWAYS my favorite game of the year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HALO THREE
	There is another BIG, HUGE game coming out next week as well.  Halo 3.  I don't play many of these type of futuristic games but I know they are popular for smarter people than me.  What I have heard from some people I know say that even if you have never played any of the Halo games, this one is pretty easy to learn.  They are saying that you will be brought up to speed real quick when playing this one. Not to worry though if your a diehard Halo fan.  People are saying that it is just as good for you too.  There is a whole lot of crap going along with the release of this too.  Pontiac is giving away 140 or so Halo 3 sports cars.
New comics are coming out from Marvel, the better of the comic book brands if you ask me, and Todd McFarlane is coming out with controllers with miniature action figures as well.  I would go into all the game play action, but I have no idea what I would be talking about, so I won't even try to talk any Halo language.  Just enjoy it when it comes out next week.  But don't miss work or school you deadbeats!!!!!!! I mean it's not like Madden or anything.

June 20th, 2007

Well hello everyone. Remember me???? You know, I'm that guy that is actually on the show. Not that jerk who wrote in saying that if the station were to buy him a new PlayStation 3 he would do all sorts of reviews. Which by the way would be waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than any review that I did. Well, low and behold he took the game and ran. That's right, NEVER EVER giving us one review. So now they come crawlin' back to me and I decided sure, why not help out. But now I'm expecting a damn PLAYSTATION 3 AS WELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Ok, since I haven't been playing a lot of new games, I decided to take a look at the GREATEST SPORTS games of ALL TIME. Here we go.

Tiger Woods Golf

It really doesn't matter what year you get or if it's playstation or Xbox. This game is great. The more you play and the better you get the funner the game gets. Sure after a while it gets to be almost too easy but then you try to go even lower. The game has gone from only having 3 courses(Pebble Beach, Spyglass, and Poppy Hills) to now having at least 10 to 15 course depending on what system you have.

Madden

It's hard to pick out the best year, so I won't. But year after year it's a solid pick. Sure sometimes they out think themselves and put a little too much into the game. Like the training camps, and who your parents are to develop the player that you are. But like I said, year after year it's a good time and a highly expected product.

Tecmo Bowl

This was Madden before Madden. It was for the old Nintendo, and it was awesome!! Sure if you were the Raiders and had Bo Jackson you pretty much beat everyone everytime on the game by just running it to the top of the screen. That is unless you were the Bears defense. This was a great game, and was even ahead of Joe Montana Football on the old Sega. Which wasn't too bad either.

Fight Night

Boxing games are so much fun. Fight night was even better because you could build your own fighter and take him through different levels of his career. Plus this game had all the greats, except Mike Tyson. Mike Tysons punch-out for Nintendo was ok, but a little too cheesy. It was the same thing as in the arcade punch-out game, except for when you got to the end you faced Tyson instead of Balled Bull.

Activision Decathalon

This is OLD SCHOOL. This was for the Atari 2600 and was probably the best sports game for that system because it was made by Activision. This had all the cool outdoor Olympic games like the high jump and the javelin. The only bad thing was to be any good at it you would totally crew your arm and hands up because of all the work you had to do on the joystick.

Baseball Stars

This is by far, the GREATEST BASEBALL video game EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This came out in the late 80's for the Nintendo game system and was one of the first games to really use a memory card. This was also the first game that you could create and build a team player by player. The more games you won the more money you got, the more you could enhance your player. You might think that when you got all your guys all maxed out that you would be unstoppable right???? WRONG!!!!!!! There was team on the game called The American Dreams that could still beat you and that is what made the game even more fun.

It's nice to be back and I'm looking forward to all the new games that are headed out.

October 20th , 2006

Waddup dogs?? Well, after having to wait for a week later than the other consoles (Playstation and regular XBOX) it's finally here. Tiger Woods '07 for the XBOX 360!!!!!!!.

Tiger Woods '07

This years version includes more golf courses. Bandon Dunes in Oregon, Firestone, and finally on XBOX 360 St. Andrews. The new courses aren't all that's new, the way you build your player up is probably the best that it has ever been. Instead of buying your players skills you have to earn them. I started in the Tiger Challenge taking on real and fictional players around the world, which will build your player up, but not as fast as when you Train your golfer. There are a bunch of different challenges you can do. Including a long drive contest to work on your power. But after playing this game for many years the two things that you want to build up first is you ball striking ability and your putting. These two will make the game way more enjoyable and playable. The downside is that from the second player on in each of the Tiger Challenges you have to play them in 18 hole matches which takes forever but it's worth it in the end when you whoop that ass.

Here's an official rundown of the features of the new Tiger Woods '07.

Tiger Woods Comes Alive — See and feel every emotion in complete detail with the introduction of all-new Universal Capture (UCAP) technology. The world's No. 1 golfer seems so real you won't believe your eyes.

Play Under Pressure — With bigger galleries, mass crowd movement from hole to hole, and cheers from nearby greens, all eyes are on you in tournament play.

Enhanced Career Mode — From working on your driving to mastering your putting skills, craft your game with training challenges in the Practice Facility, then take on the world's best golfers on the World Tour.

All-New Championship Courses — The course content doubles with the addition of new licensed courses, including Firestone Country Club, Glen Abbey, Princeville, Spyglass Hill, St Andrews, and Bandon Dunes.

More PGA TOUR Players — Featuring 15 of the world's top players, including Tiger Woods, John Daly, Vijay Singh, Ian Poulter, Michael Campbell, and Annika Sorenstam, the most decorated golfer on the LPGA Tour.

Show Your GameFace — The innovative character creation tool is revamped with deeper modifications, more apparel, equipment licenses, and specialty items.

Become the World's Best — Challenge up to three players in five new game modes, or play in online tournaments complete with money lists, full stat tracking, league leaders, and more.

More Game Modes — Work on your game or take on a friend in Match Play, Battle Golf, 21, OneBall, and more.

Keep checking back on this game with me, this will be the only one I'm playing for quite some time now!

Drop me an email and let me know what you think of the game (and if I missed anything in the review that needs to be covered).

August 23rd, 2006

Well, it's finally here. Madden 07!!!!!!!

Madden '07

xx

This game is B-A double-D BADD!!!!!!! I went and got the Hall of Fame edition, just to see the behind the scenes DVD, and the special section of Hall of Famers that have some highlight reels of their careers. As far as the game goes WAAAAAAAAAY better than last years, mainly because the passing isn't all screwed up with the vision of the field that looks like a flashlight. It still comes on but I think only when your Quarterback is on fire. I used the hit stick once to sack the Quarterback and let me tell you when you use that feature, YOU BRING THE NOISE. Byron Leftwich from Jacksonville still doesn't know what hit him as he fumbled the ball as well.

Dynasty Mode is different this year because you don't have to set the prices anymore for tickets, parking and concessions, which isn't bad. That seemed like a time consuming feature of the last couple years. I also have not yet used the lead blocker feature because I want all the glory when I run for a touchdown not some dumbass offensive lineman.

As far as the Superstar Mode goes, this is kind of dumb to me. You build your own player, name him give him whatever parents you want, like your dad is an Ex NFL lineman and your mom is a doctor(right a woman doctor), and you build your player from there. Which includes going through a bunch of tryouts where you have to run a 40 yard dash, bench press and then run plays for a few teams before your drafted. Then once your drafted you go to training camp and run plays that feature you, I did this because it was the only way you really get to play the game. Speaking of that, when you play a game in this mode you actually don't do anything unless your number gets called. I'm sure it's cool if you have a bunch of time like me, but if you don't have patients like me you probably will skip this feature.

All and all, this is probably the coolest Madden game yet, the hits are big, the Graphics are the best I have ever seen on a game and the game play is fast, if you don't already have this game, go out and get it!!!!!!!!

Arnie

And here's some more stuff to look for...

Lead Blocker Control:
Throw the perfect block and create a running lane with all-new lead blocking control, and then take command of the tailback and rip off a big gain.

NFL Superstar: Hall of Fame Mode:
Play your way to the Pro Football Hall of Fame by taking complete control of any position on the field. Your actions on and off the field determine your impact on the game.

Run Like the Players Run with the All-New Highlight Stick:
Bust out player-specific running styles matching those of real NFL players (e.g., smaller backs slash to break tackles, while bigger runners bowl over defenders in the open field). All-new jukes, cutbacks, and power moves.

Additions to Franchise Mode:
Scout collegiate prospects with the all-new NFL Draft Scouting System and the College All-Star Game, or watch players around the NFL impact their teams with the new Franchise Player Roles feature.

Team-Specific Defensive Playbooks:
For the first time, use actual plays from your favorite team's defensive playbook to shut down the running game, pressure the quarterback, or force key turnovers.

Online Play:
Climb the leaderboard as you take on your biggest rivals from coast-to-coast in Play Now or Session Match games.

In addition to features above, here's more for Madden NFL 07 on Xbox 360...

The Season Begins in Mini-Camp (XBOX 360 only):
Create a player then build up his attributes by running him through skill-based, combine-type mini-games. In the off-season use Mini-Camps to condition players or rehab injuries to get back on the field faster.

Madden Gamer Level (XBOX 360 only):
Track your career accomplishments in Franchise Mode to earn Madden Gamer Points, and then wager your rewards against the computer or against live online opponents to reach the ultimate reward—the NFL Hall of Fame.

Replay Challenge (XBOX 360 only):
Throw the red flag and challenge any play. Overturned calls or plays "that stand" have a huge effect on the outcome of every game.

MADDEN NFL 07 for PC-CD
- Same Run To Daylight features as the current-gen console version
- Customizable stats summaries
- New intuitive mouse and keyboard controls
- Also play using the new Xbox 360 USB controller

It looks like another fantastic Fall for video games.

August 22nd, 2006

Waddup dogs?? Alright, it's time for another Video Game Review. Look here, nobody spends more time playing video games than me. So now Rob makes me write reviews and give updates on all the stuff that's happening with new games. Ok, so here's a look at what to expect from the big game coming out in a few weeks.

Madden '07

xx

For this game, there will be two editions: a "Hall of Fame Madden" and a regular Madden. I believe the regular Madden has all the game play but I could be mistaken. Here's what to look for this season.
