Blizzard is finally going back to the cash cow and the biggest waste of my university life DIABLO!!! Read the FAQ, no release date, no system requirements out yet, but my guess is it will be VERY similar to the Starcraft 2 system requirements and is probably running on the same engine. So far they've showed off the Barb and a new Witch Doctor, I'm just waiting to see if the Assassin comes back. No more Guildwars, no more WoW, my true addiction has returned.
Super Mario Decals!!!
I came across this here at Kotaku. I'm such a sucker for this stuff, I've already got Space Invader decals at my home, I wonder if I can find room to put this in my hallway!
Liberty City vs New York
Can't remember where exactly I came across this Flickr gallery but if you've got yourself a copy of GTA IV then its interesting to see these side by side shots vs New York. Check it out here
GTAIV - first impressions
So its out, even in Hong Kong! The first thing I have to say is, well its more GTA, I've only played about 2-3 hours so I haven't gotten to the portion of the game where the "real" story starts to pick up. The new mechanics that have been placed into the game thus far seem to work, driving is still a bit off especially if you've played through Burnout Paradise recently.
But my early impression is this, its more GTA, if you're are addicted to Rockstar story telling and don't mind running playing a bunch of 3rd person mini games in between said cut scenes this is definitely the game for you. Having said that I've yet to jump online and try the multiplayer aspect.
In the end if you like GTA you'll like IV if you never did, this isn't some revolutionary version, don't buy into the hype, this is just the most refined version of GTA. Think of drinking an expensive wine, for some people its a waste, for others its worth half your wages for 1 glass.
PSP Waterproof Bag - simple but good idea
I came across this here at Gizmodo. This is an awesome idea any sort of wet environment like the beach or long romantic bubble baths watching porn on your psp, brilliant! I think might start enjoying baths again.
Snes controller for Wii - The first SHOULDERBUTTON
Came across this here at Kotaku. ITS THE ORIGINAL SNES CONTROLLER FOR WII!!! Awesomeness!!! and SHOULDER BUTTONS!!
Splatterhouse - more gaming revivials
EGM and 1UP have the exclusive dibs on this story. Seems that the world's first Horror Survival (even though it was an arcade game) is being revived. Seems more and more that 2008 is going to be the gaming year of revivals, heck they even have a retro SNES controller for the Wii that looks exactly the same!! The original SHOULDER BUTTON controller!
Space Invaders - Cups
By now you must realize I'm a sucker for Space Invaders stuff! Came across this here at Kotaku. Excellent as I really need a new cup for the office!
Ikaruga on XBL next week!!!
I came across this here at Kotaku. It seems my favourite eye crossing shooter of all time is finally about to arrive on XBL. FORGET RAINBOW 6 VEGAS 2 and COD4 its all about IKARUGA!!! I just hope that the HK XBL release date is in line with the rest of the world. Unlike my 2 months late 'The Club'
