new game + : Five by Five, A 2009 Toplist

Thu, 31 Dec 2009 15:31:30 +0000

Nice to see some Plants vs. Zombies love on this list. We all know how I feel about that game. It's also great to see Super Mario Brothers Wii getting some love, because its totally fun and awesome. It's looking to be one the only game I've beaten in years. Congrats on NG+ turning 1! That's a really big accomplishment, you guys do a great job. Happy New Year! :)

new game + : The Future of Multiplayer

Great post Dan! I'm really jealous of you Xboxers that get to play 1 vs 100 - I think its a game I would seriously enjoy and the way they are using multiplayer sounds really awesome, and is definitely something that should be done more.

Video Game News & Reviews - Kombo.com : John Mayer and the Great Guitar Hero Gaffe

Tue, 7 Jul 2009 19:10:47 +0000

Are you people seriously getting your panties in a bunch about this? Whether you like John Mayer or not, it's clear the guy is one of the most talented guitarists to hit the music scene in the last 5-10 years. The guy can seriously rock, and despite the fact that most of his songs are pretty cheesy, the guy is actually really talented. It doesn't surprise me at all that this dude can't play Guitar Hero or Rock Band. For someone that actually knows how to play guitar, playing Guitar Hero has got to be pretty awkward. You use none of the same skills. And in his defense, if I can't figure something out or suck at it, I usually get frustrated and stop playing too. It's the reason I haven't beaten more than 10 games in my life.

Also, you get a gold star for referencing Limp Bizkit and making it work. :D

The Wiire : Zelda\'s Re-Awakening

Tue, 7 Jul 2009 18:36:42 +0000

I'd love to see Zelda take a new direction as well. I think you make a ton of really good points here, and I think it would be pretty sweet to see Zelda do some things that he's never done before. I really like that you bring up Prince of Persia. I'd love to see some of the gameplay elements from Prince of Persia in a Zelda game. As someone who has played very little Zelda, I think this is the type of thing that would really entice me to play one. I've been gaming since I was like 4-5, yet aside from 20 minutes of Twilight Princess and less than half of Phantom Hourglass, I've never really played Zelda. The series always seemed intriguing, but boring. I think adding in the Prince of Persia type elements would make the game a bit more exciting and fun. (and maybe draw in a whole new crowd of gamers) Also, this NEEDS to happen "What if Link could take a rope, tie it to an arrow, fire that arrow at a cliff ledge, and then climb said cliff ledge?" YESYESYES. You're totally right about this. Can we send this article over to Nintendo now?

I'm not really an RPG person, but those characters look really cute. Maybe I'll try this one.

I don't really know much about Castlevania, but I do have a pretty silly question that hopefully someone can answer for me. Are these current Castlevania games in any way related to the Castlevania game I used to play on my NES back in the 90s?

haha CONES! I love Cones! And I love corn ice cream! I assure you that it was actually a tomato, and not tomato flavored ice cream. http://www.dabbledoo.com/ee/images/uploads/applet... See, tomato. And also an onion.

Awww, Dave. You were listening! haha. Yes, it is. I caught a tomato that was falling from the sky instead of an ice cream scoop. :(

I totally agree. Also, with stuff like Braid and Flower out there, how can people not take gaming seriously? We need more of it, but it's a start for sure.

The Wiire : Afterthoughts on Nintendo and E3 2009

Tue, 16 Jun 2009 04:00:43 +0000

I'm pretty excited for NSMB Wii. It'll be awesome to be able to play with my brother, and anything Mario is okay with me. I had a total Mariogasm when I saw that Galaxy 2 was announced though. Galaxy is hands down my favorite Mario game of all time, and even if its the exact same game with a "2" added to the title - I'm all over it. Yes, I'm a sucker.

The Wiire : How Nintendo Can Restore My Interest at E3

Wed, 3 Jun 2009 14:42:38 +0000

Great article Chris! :) I'm with you on two points for sure. 1. Nintendo needs to push out more platformers. For me, Nintendo and platforming go hand in hand. They're just right for each other. 2. The Wii needs to learn from the DS. Not every DS game is a gimmicky attempt to use the touch screen, but with the Wii, I always feel like they're forcing controls on me. Whenever I can, I find myself using the Game Cube controller instead. It's what I liked about Super Paper Mario, most of the game used the Wiimote as a regular controller. I own about 35 DS games, and I love and still replay about 30 of them. I own like 20 Wii games, and aside from multiplayer/party games, the only ones I ever come back to are Mario Galaxy, Super Paper Mario, and Mario Kart.
