Cat Related Post!

So apparently Catz 2 for the Wii is an adventure game where you play as an adorable kitty... How is this not the game we've all been waiting for?

The Bourne Conspiracy

I gotta go read some Frederick Douglass, but I thought everyone should see this. I have no idea how good it will actually be, but the combat looks vaguely like the movies. I just miss Matt Damon I guess. He's so thuggishly large.

Joy and Happiness in the Form of Mark Wahlberg (and Mass Effect)

Yeah, so here I am again, The Witcher and work have been keeping me busy. So, whats new these days? Well, first off, all of those lucky bastards with 360s who managed to snag a copy of Mass Effect are probably very happy right now.

Also, for all of us who love us some Mark Wahlberg, check this out. Seriously, Marky Mark as Max Payne? This is so awesome, everyone who saw The Departed knows he can be a moody cop. Lets just hope it only sucks a small amount, as opposed to a huge amount.

Witchy Enough for the Witcher?

Yeah, so I haven't been posting much recently, due to massive working, and my purchase of The Witcher. It's pretty damn good, despite some amazingly juvenile design decisions regarding "mature" content. Those options (and I am of course referring to having sex with practically every single woman in the game... Whaaat?) are entirely optional, so if you want to, you can play the entire game without following through on this idiotic game mechanic. I suggest you do so, because underneath that weirdness is a great, fun CRPG, the likes of which I haven't seen in years. Oh yes, and watch out for the fucking load times, they hurt so bad.

Cool Massive Attack Drake's Fortune Trailer

So I still don't know if this game will amount to anything good, but this latest Drake's Fortune trailer has some awesome music in it. It is way to early to be awake and blogging, and yet...

As always, thanks to Gametrailers.

Soldier of Fortune Looks Childish, Has Dumb Advertising

Hey, remember Soldier of Fortune II? Yeah, I bought it because I could blow off a Russian terrorsit's leg and watch him crawl around. I was young, and stupid, and not creeped out by the alarming pro-imperialist/gun activist/macho American mustache-guy overtones.

This new game looks so much better than the old ones: set in a Vague Middle-Eastern place, a Vague Asian Jungle place, and a Vague African Village place(Yay!), full of creepy bald white guys killing lots of people who are less white. Plus, the Evil forces of darkness scream as you shoot off their left big toe or whatever. The icing on the cake is this trailer, which says something at the end that is kinda like "no girly men need apply." I love gamers, and I love how stupid and racist they can be. Magnifique!
