Diego’s Top 5 Duke Nukem Quotes

I’ve always been a Duke fan. Shit I’ve been betting on him since I played the first Duke game. No I’m not talking about Duke Nukem 3D you little babies, I’m talking about the first Duke Nukem game that came out in 1991 and was 2D. Man those 2 games were hard as fuck but I still loved and played the shit out of them, and when Duke made the transition to 3D I nearly pissed myself with excitement. Now after over a decade of wait it seems the glory of Duke Nukem Forever will soon shine over our mortal souls and I’ve decided to compile a Top 5 list of my favorite Duke Nukem quotes. It was hard sifting through over 100 different lines but Will forced me to stick with just 5 so blame him. Also if your favorite quote isn’t here go make your own damn list, and blame Will for it too. … Continue Reading

Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days Review

Kane & Lynch 2 Dog Days
Developer: IO Interactive
Price: $59.99
Platform: Xbox 360 [reviewed], Playstation 3

Nearly two years since the first installment, the duo of Kane and Lynch return for the Dog Days of summer in the IO Interactive developed sequel. Dog Days bears little resemblance to predecessor and that, in its own respect, is a good thing. It’s a standard fare third person shooter that offers a unique shakycam presentation and immerses you within a world that is utterly devoid of these things called morals. Should you run into Kane & Lynch on the streets, its fair warning that you should start running…fast. … Continue Reading

Hydro Thunder Hurricane Review

Hydro Thunder Hurricane
Developer: Vector Unit
Price: 1200 MSP
Platform: Xbox 360

I can’t say anyone was expecting a sequel to a boat racing series released back in dawn of the Millennium for the Dreamcast and Playstation. Now for the Summer of Arcade season for Xbox Live we have a full blown sequel to Midway’s crazy arcade racer and element whore, Hydro Thunder Hurricane. Does Vector Unit do the original justice? Does it help revive the now dead genre? … Continue Reading

Review: Blazblue: Continuum Shift

Blazblue: Continuum Shift
Developer: Arc System Works
Price: $39.99USD
Platform: Xbox 360 [reviewed]/Playstation 3/Arcade

When Blazblue: Continuum Shift first hit the arcades in November of 2009, the then outdated predecessor, Calamity Trigger, seemed to have lost some ground for the series on the consoles. But with Capcom’s conglomerates of Street Fighter revisions throughout the years providing reasons why producing such titles are worth the effort, Aksys rewards its console followers with the freshly enhanced Continuum Shift for the XBOX 360 and Playstation 3. … Continue Reading

Blacklight Tango Down Review

Blacklight: Tango Down Review
Developer: Zombie Studios/UTV Ignition Entertainment
Price: 1200 MSP
Platform: Xbox 360 [reviewed], PC

Nearly a month after Blacklight: Tango Down’s release, I revisited the battlefield after the bugs and release day issues were resolved. Blacklight brings a first person shooter experience to the downloadable market with a multiplayer that highlights customization and team-based gameplay. Its ambitious in that respect but somewhere down the line the execution didn’t quite match up to its high aspirations. … Continue Reading

N3II: Ninety Nine Nights 2 Review

Ninety Nine Nights 2
Developer: feelplus/Konami Digital Entertainment Inc.
Price: $59.99
Platform: Xbox 360

Ninety Nine Nights 2, hereon referred to as N3II, is the sequel to 2006’s critically panned game. Konami, taking the publishing role from Microsoft, has brought the title back to the Xbox 360 for more wholesome hack-n-slash mayhem with an added layer of difficulty and online co-op mode. However, N3II still faces the recurring problem that plagues most titles of this genre – its frustratingly repetitive. … Continue Reading
