Game of the Now: Super Street Fighter 4

Time to start the weekly columns, boys and girls. Thursday will be gameday and Wednesday music day! Ain't that just grand?

Game of the Now is the weekly post where I chose a game that I'm feeling at the moment and ramble/rant/praise about it. Note that it could be any game from any time period, not necessarily a brand spankin' new one. Papa gotta pay the bills round here knawmsayin' son?




So, for 36 bucks, I can play a fighting game with 35 characters, several online game modes, and epic nostalgia factor? I'm sold, Capcom. I mean sure I feel kinda jipped that I paid 60 bucks already for a vastly inferior game with inferior music and spent about 3 hours unlocking the only guy I will ever main in a Street Fighter game ever(Akuma) and spent 97% of my online time fighting Ken's that only know how to Shoryuken and Hadoken and oh god i'm rambling now let me stop.


But if you have never bought the first 4, this is a great pickup.Hell it's a nice pickup if you bouight the first one too.   Now go get your Shoryuken on and fight like gentlemen.



Question: Do you have Super Street Fighter 4? If so, what are your thoughts on it?

Halo Reach Beta Impressions Post #1 ( OH SNAP A NEW POST)


Got the Halo Reach Beta code last week, time to list out my impressions about the game. Bulleted list style as always, baby.


  • It took 4 games to implant some goddamn recoil on the guns.
  • Guard(EMP)is faggotry. All the other suit powers are pretty cool, though.
  • In game loadouts....oh snap I armor that I can customize...hey a big meter telling me how much **** I'm doing...THIS SEEMS FAMILIAR
  • Invasion(Battlefield:Halo) is cool if you're on Covy, It's most often a losing battle if you're a Spartan.
  • Is it me or does it seem like its a LOT easier to die?
  • I hope to god they implement a couple no Party Chat playlists a la Modern CampWarfare 2. Might as well be playing a bot match for christsakes.

All in all a solid game. Nothing groundbreaking, here. I'll probably buy it this September because everyone on my friends list will be playing it. Either that or I go back to CounterStrike.
 

Question: Are you in the Halo Reach Beta? If so, what are your impressions on it?

OH GOD WORK OVERLOAD

Fyi I'm still alive...just right after my spring break when I remade my blog I got swamped with work and never got to writing that ps3 review....or anything else on the site.

But I will not leave you guys hanging too much...and I watched some Redbox DVD's a couple days ago...so let's talk Redbox. For those of you that don't know what I'm talking about;  Redbox is a rental movie service that charges for 1 dollar per night. They are located at your local grocery store/Wal/K-mart/Target. And you can return them to any RedBox in the nation. Sounds great right? It is great. At least until some scandal or something....that always happens.




Question: Have you heard of RedBox? If you have, what are your thoughts on it?
