Sunday Time Waster: Dune Buggy

So, I was supposed to have an article about the Olympics together for you, but along my journalistic travels, I came across this game on MiniClip.com called Dune Buggy. And now I don’t have an article about the Olympics. Instead, I have a dune buggy game. If it can keep me from doing my job, I bet it can keep you from doing your job too!

More from E3 : PS3 Loses Another Exclusive Property

I don’t like to talk about how the XBOX360 is better then the PS3. I own a 360, but I’ve played the PS3 and I like it just fine. It’s a solid platform and the game I played on it (Ratchet and Clank) was quite fun. However, if you can’t read the writing on the wall that the PS3 is hurting, you’re either completely blind or hopelessly obsessed.

Yesterday at E3, Square Enix showed a trailer for the next game in their hyper-popular series, Final Fantasy. A series that was first a Nintendo property, and then at the turn of the console wars (when the N64 proved to be the weaker system) swore allegiance to the Playstation platform. Until now. The next game, Final Fantasy XIII (which looks, for all intents in purposes, gorgeous but pretty standard) will be available for both the 360 and the PS3.

Halo 3 “Quickie” Review: First Impressions

Halo 3At 12:00 this morning Halo 3 was unleashed to the masses with an anticipation rivaled only by the biggest big-budget movies.

Being a relative newbie to the series - I had to play a lot of catch-up, as I only recently purchased an Xbox 360 - the Halo experience I have denied for so long has taken me in, hook and sinker.

While I’m only a few hours into this FPS masterwork I can say with the utmost confidence that fans and novices alike can rest easy: it’s exactly what you hoped for and more.

To ensure convenience I have broken down this quick article into two parts, one for veterans of the series and one for newcomers. Read More »

New “Halo 3″ Clip Unveiled

Halo 3
September 25 can’t come quick enough for fans of the Halo franchise. Early reports on Halo 3, easily one of the most anticipated games of all time, have been more than favorable; but outside of the gaming elite nobody has seen concrete evidence.

The most recent clip puts all doubt out the door, with more emphasis on action than previous trailers. FPS fans shouldn’t worry any further, as Master Chief’s latest fragfest is gearing up to be a bonafide showstopper.

Watch the new teaser clip after the jump.
