The long awaited Gears of War 3 Review..
Fast forward 5 years and the last game in the franchise has just been released.
After playing for about 3 hours I must say that this game is amazing. The detail and the story so far are unbelievable. The game takes place 2 years after the end of gears 2 and everything has gone to hell. People can no longer live on land due to the lambent. They now live on boats that are constantly moving they mostly head towards land when they need supplies.
The game is very much like the first 2 but for this game epic has brought out the stops. They have included new weapons and a alot and I mean alot of new modes like beast mode where you get to play as a Locust.
The best part for me though about this game is the multiplayer. You are going to have to wait for another post for the full review on it but for now I will say that the problems that you have experienced in Gears 2 are gone since Epic released a beta multiplayer. So now the multiplayer in this game is alot and I do mean alot smoother..
Again stay tuned for a full Multiplayer review
Until Next Time Geeks..

Sorry for the Delay
I know it has been a very longtime since I posted but to get back in to the swing of things let start with Deus EX Human Revolution.
First this game came out late in the summer there were no really big titles during the summer which in my opinion was weird. After playing the game for a couple of hours and getting a feel for it.. I have to say that this is a great game one of the biggest reason i say this is because. You can play it anyway you want you can go in running and gunning everything down. Or you can be as quiet as a mouse and kill everything or slowly knock everyone out.
Another thing that the game does very well is giving you the chance to develop anything and everything a certain way you can be great at hiding and still be able to kill like a trained assassin or you can hack but still have the ability to hide in plain site..
All in all this is a great game and it would make a great addition to anyones collection. The only thing in my opinion that takes away from this game is the fact that there is no new game plus. Again all in all this is a great game and I gotta say that it is a buy..
Since I finally have my internet back I am going to start posting more and more I am also no longer on vacation (sad face).. So look forward too our review of Gears of War 3 which comes out in a week..
Until Next Time Geeks....

Vinyl toys art or plaything... A review of The Vinyl Frontier…

I started collecting vinyl figures in 2007. At the time I didn’t know what they were all I knew was that they were cool little characters that I enjoyed showcasing on the shelves in my room. Fast forward 4 years and now I have a lot of the little guys on my shelves I went from 1 to 50. In a variety of characters and company name brands…
Now a days Vinyl is truly a frontier as can be seen in The Vinyl Frontier. An excellent film by Daniel Zana this film takes you through a rough history of the Vinyl world. It talks about the artists who started it all with simple things like Ken dolls. To artist that have revolutionized the industry with their personal style and feel. The documentary is about 90 minutes long and trust me from beginning to end it will keep you entertained and curious most importantly much like the figures it will keep you wanting more.
The film opens with interviews of some of the heavy hitters in the Vinyl figure world. To name a few Attaboy, Gary Baseman, Paul Bunditz, and Tara Mcpherson this is just the tip of the iceberg. As the film goes on it follows some of the artists an the things that they go through.
Some of my favorite scenes of the documentary are the portions that show Keith Poon designing and having a Vinyl toy that he has created made. Along with those scenes others that will also interest you and others are the personal opinions of those in vinyl art community. I really enjoyed finding out that some artists hate it when someone is clearly buying a vinyl toy to sell it or when a company releases the same toy but in a different color.
All in all this documentary is a great buy it is one of those movies that will shed light on a world that is growing everyday. It is also a great way to check out some of the collections that are out there and some of the vinyl figures that are worth looking into.
Like all dvds there are extras and man are they good. Most documentaries that I have watched don’t have many extras but this film does. One of the many extras is a look into the collection of Gary Baseman. Along with that there are commentaries from the director and artists and you even get a class in vinyl figure making with the famous Sucklord. (Sure it is filled with a lot of profanity but what hard work isn’t..)
So if you haven’t headed to the Vinyl Frontier website to pick up your own copy please do it is a great addition to any collection. At the site when picking up your copy you can get a autographed copy or a regular one
Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary pre-order extras..

Like in the title of this post there are extras to be gotten with the preorder of the anniversary edition of Halo Combat Evolved. Mainly there will be 2 items one will be a special skull that when activated will cause grunts to explode like plasma grenades when killed. The other item will be Spartan 117 armor which will look good on your avatar well atleast I think so..
Until Next Time Geeks...

F3ar Review

If you are looking for a game that will scare the crap out of you fear 3 is not the title for you. If you are looking for a title that will give you a taste of Call of duty mixed with a little left 4 dead this is the game for you. Fear 3 takes place right after the cliffhanger ending of part 2. You once again take the role of Point Man having killed his brother in previous games you are psychically linked to him and have momentary conversations with him through out the game.
The single player for this game is pretty awesome it is something that will be remembered by those who play it. It is filled with enough twists and turns to keep you playing. The graphics are great they are highly detailed and give alot to the imagination. I will say though that the physics are not that great when you shoot something sitting on a table or a shelf it hardly moves. Sometimes the bullets go right through the actual object.
What really makes this game stand out though is the multiplayer. In this Fear game you can play co-op through the whole campaign. One of the players will take the role of point man and the other the ghost form of your brother. they both have there pluses and drawbacks as point man you have super strength and you can slow down time. Since your brother is a ghost he can use psychic powers to blow enemies heads up and pose their bodies. Along with the co-op there is a range of horde type games where you kill wave upon wave of enemy. Last but not least there is a timed multiplayer game where you and temates run through a level as fast as you can while alma is trying to kill you.
All in all Fear 3 is a good game it is a great close to the series. if you dont have time to play the multiplayer you will definetly enjoy the sigle player if you rent it. But in the end I would definetly buy this game you will have loads and loads of fun till MW3 comes out or Gears of War 3..
Until Next time Geeks..
