Excellent and hilarious video, but I’ll admit my initial response was something along the lines of the following: What the…? “Oh… er… oh well? Hmmm… (consults jury, which is still out)”. Meh, I guess it’s better than a Big Head Mode or putting Larry Bird in there, but geez… Why? Feh, I’ll ignore this because the final product is going to knock my socks off (AND yours), but hell… As long as it doesn’t affect the quality of the game, id could put Phil Silvers and Don Knotts in the damn thing and it’ll still rock.

In the never-ending realm of action-packed, lightning paced zombie games, Trapped Dead tries to do things a bit differently as a more tactical top-down experience that still packs an action game punch where it counts. Featuring impressive visuals that look great even on lower end PC's, six playable characters, great genre weapons and up to four-player online co-op, there's a lot to like here… but the game isn't perfect. Thanks to some occasionally wonky path-finding (even with the patch), the game isn't quite the epic mash-up you'd expect. But if you're a patient sort and want a unique (but still as gory as you'd think) chunk of fun, there's a lot of that to be had in this mildly campy and nicely bloody homage to classic zombie flicks.Read more »

Catherine "Are You Committed" Trailer
A few weeks back, Atlus USA asked fans to submit video responses to a few age old relationship questions with selected bits being used to promote its upcoming PS3 and Xbox 360 puzzle horror game hybrid, Catherine. Here you go, the results of that little experiment in terror…
…Annnnnnd We’re Back!
Crap. That Blogger outage took a while, didn’t it? Anyway, I had some stuff queued up that got lost in whatever was going on in the update or whatever, so I need to do some rewriting, it seems. Bleh. Back in a bit with some new stuff. I was thinking about ranting away over the PSN outage, but it’s not worth my blood pressure going up again… It does royally STINK, is all I’m saying…
Oh, and Duke Nukem Forever is HILARIOUS. A lot deeper than a lot of folks are thinking, that’s for sure… more later.
Super Fighter Team Debuts Star Odyssey in France
Sure, it happened last November, but for a time-traveling gaming junkie like me, it’s always going to be 19XX at some point during the day. How come games like this aren’t given the royal(e) treatment in the US? I guess flashy 3D graphics, millions of bucks spent on ads, parties and hype and generating celebrity-based buzz is more important than keeping these flames alive, but as Super Fighter’s Brandon Cobb says: “Never let Dreams Die!” I can’t wait to plunk down some hard-earned cash for this game once it’s all done. More information on Star Odyssey is available at the game’s official website
Happy Mother’s Day From Prototype 2!
Update: More Random Art!

I’ve been on a bit of a creative streak outside of writing, in case you’re wondering about the lack of updates. I’m still working on reviews and such (PSN being down has been a pain) and will have a bunch up shortly. Meanwhile, meet Maggie McGree. Her other friends (old and new) are hanging out here.
Wizardry: Labyrinth of Lost Souls Website Goes Live
Well, alright! Xseed has set up a beautiful website for the upcoming PSN-only release and I’m loving every bit of art and info I see there. Still, with PSN possibly under attack again, will US audiences actually get to download this game? We shall see…
