Soon
Today we're going to have my first thoughts primarily on Gears of War but also on a few other upcoming games for the first half of the entry. The second half is going to be a nice, old-fashioned rant about other people's stupidity.
Gears of War
Anyone at the LAN will have carefully noted that upon getting my hands on this game I swiftly shunned all social contact for an hour or so and giggled uncontrollably. This is a damned good game!
Firstly, the graphics are surprisingly close to photo realism. The environments are incredible and I expect it helped we were playing on an HDTV at the same time...
The weapons are good - when you shotgun someone, they actually explode and then you can kick their various limbs around on the floor. The music is excellent, the combat superb, the ability to play co-op online will no doubt prove excellent...
Legend of Zelda : Twilight Princess
Oh crap oh crap oh crap. While this game may look decent, the simple fact that Link can now morph into a wolf opens the door for so much horrible furry fanart. A future entry will discuss just how much I hate furries. The quick answer : I really, really hate them.
STALKER : Shadow of Chernobyl
Back in the day, Stalker looked like it could actually turn out to be quite a good game. But from what I've seen recently and with the goodness of Halflife 2 : Episode 2 and Crysis coming to our screens soon, it suddenly looks rather dated. Oh well.
Halo 3
There is currently a forum on Bungie.net for people to suggest weapons they'd like to see in Halo 3. I wouldn't mind if they actually consulted those with some gaming knowledge who aren't just silly Xbox fanboys who've only ever played Halo as their taste of gaming. Anyway, here are some of the crappiest suggestions.
U.B.D- Universal Bomb Deployer, basicly a big weapon (big, very big) but heavy grenade launcher that makes a big big explosion. Its avadable at the last level, and in multiplayer. 1 ammo
Almost every other suggestion was for a superweapon (HEY! LET'S HAVE A MOBILE NUKE LAUNCHER LOL) and this was the dumbest I could find. So basically, reduce multiplayer to nothing else except scrambling for a single level? And make the end of campaign stupidly easy because you just get this awful clone of the BFG and blast stuff? Brilliant idea! Go back to playing Daikatana.
How about a weapon that makes you trade places with your enemy, a more strategical approach to the game.
Why didn't I think of that? While this "weapon" does no damage and no use to anyone, the worst thing is that it is totally STUPID. Strategical? What the hell is that supposed to mean? Where is the strategy in your team and their team suddenly changing places, thus giving them just as much benefit as you? Get off my planet and get back to drawing furry fanart with baby wolves hurling soiled nappies at each other or whatever it is you people enjoy.
bring back the assault rifle with more powerful bullets, more ammo can be stored for a longer supply, a scope for longer distances, and a cooler look. imagine a long range assault rifle ripping through people's shields and automatic fire. AWESOME!
You know what guys, fuck every other weapon in this stupid shitty game. Let's just have one gun that everyone uses that kills everything and can't be beaten! Who needs weapons that might require some skill to use when you can just spray and pray with your megaweapon. It does sound totally JAWSOME, just like the Street Sharks.
3)Anti Air Turrets (for shooting down those babies ^^^^^)
I have no idea what the relevance of babies is. I think it refers to his suggestion to add Pelicans and Phantoms to multiplayer gameplay, but I cannot stand ^^^^^^^^^^. No-one has that many eyebrows you fool! Read a biology textbook, or throttle yourself with your own vocal chords. Both work perfectly!

That post ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ is good.
But the 'nuke' is in Unreal Tournament and is fairly balanced in that it has a small blast radius and there is one hidden on each multiplayer map. It does work!
And the Zelda game for Wii looks good.
And no one say "nintendo p*ss" please, it offends wii fans like me.
Well, if I was going to get Halo 3, or an Xbox 360 for that matter, I would just ask for some BETTER GUNS. The guns in Halo 2 are distinctly underwhelming. They should improve on the ones they have rather than just adding to the sheer amount of mediocrity.
Stalker looks shit..
Gears of War is rather tasty.
Legend of Zelda is apparently very very good, although I still fail to believe that anything for the Wii will ever be good.
Yes gears is one awesome game :D Havnt tried in SD but HD is incredible graphics, coop and online is great aswell :)
And those comments ... trading places gun, LOL
