X-Play's New Format Sucks

Posted 01-18-08 at 10:42 PM by VulcanDragon (Vulcan Dragon)

I thought the show was perfect in the previous format...80% game reviews suitable for average games, peppered with some generally good humor; and 20% other game related content (previews, etc.)

The new format sucks. From the handful I've seen so far, they've dropped it down to one review per show. One. WTH? Other changes:

1. One "preview" per show, with a game developer there to walk you through it. Nice in principle, but sorry...these guys are NOT good...

Currently Playing Update

Posted 01-08-08 at 10:10 AM by VulcanDragon (Vulcan Dragon)

Completed: BioShock (X360)
Awesome game. Frankly, the handful of people who have dissed BioShock on these forums are flat-out, bat-crap crazy. If I were to voice one complaint at all, it would be that the final boss was not challenging...Big Baddies were harder than Fontaine. Of course, I did play through on Normal difficulty...I'll swing back around and play again on Hard after I knock out a few more games that have yet to even be booted.

Added: Super Mario Galaxy (Wii)...

Currently Playing Update

Posted 12-26-07 at 11:21 AM by VulcanDragon (Vulcan Dragon)

Added: Rock Band (X360)
I can't not play this right away even though I haven't finished anything recently...it's just too fun.

Removed (temporarily): Halo 3
I've only played for maybe 20 minutes since I got it, then I spent all my time on BioShock. So it was added to my list prematurely. It will get re-added once I finish BioShock.

Current Play List:
  • Okami (PS2)
  • BioShock (X360)
  • Final Fantasy III (DS)
  • Rock Band (X360)

Happy Holidays

Posted 12-25-07 at 12:15 PM by VulcanDragon (Vulcan Dragon)

Merry Christmas, Happy Hannukah, Killer Kwanzaa, Fabulous Festivus, or whatever floats your boat.

I got my Rock Band (X360) for XMas, which was no surprise since I bought it and my wife just wrapped it up. I also got Super Mario Galaxy (Wii) and Mass Effect (X360). And non-holiday related, I also just used some credit card points for a card I want to cancel to get Dead Rising (X360) for free. I don't know when I'm going to play all these games!!! I'm closing on in finishing BioShock,...

Got My New Car

Posted 12-14-07 at 10:58 AM by VulcanDragon (Vulcan Dragon)

Finally, my new car came in last night....a 2008 Cadillac CTS, red with black interior, loaded with all sorts of technical goodies that I now have to figure out how to use. Hurray! The dealership had me put down a deposit to order the car because the black interior was an "unusual" color combination. They're basically nuts, and admitted as much when they saw the car. It's just freaking gorgeous, much better than the camel interior they considered "normal".

Now I...
