Currently Playing: Beyond Good & Evil PS2

This Is A Slide From The 'Current Gen' BGE...I'm Psyched!

Seeing as I just purchased a PS2 last year I'm throughly playing through all the games I missed.  At times its a chore [especially with Deus Ex], but with this game I have to say its been such a breeze.  After I get off of work I pop in the disc do a mission or two, or sometimes I'll race or play a quick sidequest.  I'm about halfway through and I really don't want it to end. Considering I've been very busy with my various jobs it has taken me about a month to make it this far. And I wouldn't have it any other way.

Sign Of The Times - Saints Row 2 in Gun Box?

You know i try to defend gaming to my elders.  Those who think games were downhill after Mrs. Pacman and Donkey Kong are kinda tough people to talk to in regards to gaming today.  Here we have Saints Row 2.  It comes with a map and poster as well as a box with a gun in it. Alright it is fake, but nevertheless it is a video game with a [fake] gun in the box. How do you defend a game centered around gang violence, claiming territory by force and the ultimate destruction of all of your enemies...wait...didn't they call this Risk a couple decades ago?

Del Toro Gives Props To Team Ico

One of the better directors today shows a little love to one of my favorite games.  What's odd is he definitely sounds like he knows his stuff. You can only wonder how many eyes a Guillermo Del Toro colossus would have [moreover...where would said eyes be placed.]
