First up the new Fire Emblem game was announced. For anyone who doesn't know this was a handhelded b
ased Tactics/Strategy (of the same style as Final Fantasy Tactics), there was one that was released for the Nintendo Wii last year; however this version just wasn't the same, its hard to enjoy a tactics game when your limited to at home play. Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon will once again be returning to the handheld, on the DS. While it isn't a huge improvement on graphics, its still a Fire Emblem game, which means its going to rock. There is also a Wi-Fi wireless mode that will allow you to use one of your units (or a team) and battle players around the world. All in all, it sounds pretty awesome. [More Reading]Dead Rising: Chop Till Ya Drop, exclusively for the Nintendo Wii. Now I'm a pretty large Dead Rising Fan, who doesn't love spending 72 hours in a mall with zombies, while trying to rescue survivors and being frank west, ace journalist? The Nintendo Wii, that's who. In this game there isnt a camera
function - which on the 360 allowed you to whip out your camera and snap pictures - for poor old Frank West. Im interested how they're explaining a journalist not using a camera. Also because its on the Wii there is a significantly less number of zombies, it just can't handle it. So "chop till you drop" becomes "oh look... 3 zombies....". They also took out the time limit that Dead Rising had. Apparently MANY players disliked the fact that you had a limited amount of time to complete missions, rescue survivors, kill zombies, and get outta the mall - you know... the realistic stuff. "Chop till you drop" seems to refer to what the game creators did to the original Dead Rising to make this Wii version - chop out as much as they could, till they're index fingers got tired.

The newly announced "Legendary" is looking like its going to be a pretty cool game. Not much has been announced but a list of the achievements and screenshots are now up on the Internet. [If you get the pun with the picture I used for this section, get outside a little bit more often]This is the section where we get a little naughty... just a little. Now everyone can see how the Wii could
be abused in the very sexual, and very dirty sense. Well, two University students did just that. They made "Dark Room Sex Game" and its a two player game for the Wii where you and your partner have to swing your controllers in specific motions simultaneously to achieve orgasm. Yup, its that kind of fun abuse of a system's abilities. [Interview with the creators and a couple videos]Ah yes... World of Warcraft... the game that I have officially given
up... yet it still taunts me. The technical specifications of the new expansion coming out, Wrath of the Lich King, were just announced. While they're still incredibly low, they still are just a bit higher then the Burning Crusade - meaning the Lich King is going to look slightly prettier. [Specs Here]
Even though I hate it, it is still
To the Metro Batman! In Washington DC there are now massive Fallout 3 posters all over the Metro (you know... the cooler name for the subway). This space is normally reserved for graffiti, AIDS, and movie posters, but Fallout 3 has a special place in the metro - and my heart.
Ever been on youtube and seen a video for a song you found you
really liked? or a game that looked amazing? Of course you have, and you've always gone "
