I used to be a normal man, until I blugeoned a guy to death. Little did I know the dangers I would face in prison. His name, was Godmode Enabled.
I had to cover my crotch 24/7 and keep a hand near my ass at times too.
Prison changed me.
Poor, poor Cody...
Daytona 3?!!!!!!! *Swoons*
Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaytonaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Loved that game back in the day. The steering needs some tweaking though.
So why did no one tell me that RE5 alternative edition has a section set in the castle with Chris/wesker/jill?
Back during E3 when Microsoft introduced Project Natal, one of their tech demos was a version of Burnout Paradise fit to work with the motion detecting hardware. For Tokyo Game Show, Microsoft brought along two other demos for the Japanese market -- the Xbox LIVE Arcade title Space Invaders Extreme and Namco Bandai's Beautiful Katamari.
When I asked Microsoft Games' Kudo Tsunoda if it would be possible to "patch" existing games to work with Natal, his answer was clear -- it's not likely. While Microsoft was able engineer other publisher's titles to work with the hardware, a significant amount of code had to be altered. With that in mind, a simple update wouldn't be enough -- a publisher would likely have to re-release the game in its entirety.
Disappointing news, considering how much easier than using a controller it was to play Beautiful Katamari. We'll have video of that in action, along with more Project Natal impressions and thoughts soon.
The page here has shrunk down the pics, but in large size it almost looks like the game has had a visual downgrade to me, slightly.

I'm still deeply saddened that Sega never released Daytona 2 arcade game on Dreamcast (or any other home console). That game kicked sooo much ass in the arcade. They should've at least included those tracks in the Daytona USA 2002 remake. WTH, Sega?
Oh well, perhaps this new game will kick even more ass!
I love when you sort of lock cars in the game and barge into each other for dominance.
I told you about RE5 GG.
Playing Beatles while singing and playing guitar at the same time is freaking awesome!
I'm gonna have to get that soon. Is your sister your casual gaming source, Vader?
Thanks Raven for doing some work for me - I brought this up on the podcast!
That it is. Surprisingly easy to do both in that game.
I'd love to keep Blanka, T-Hawk, DeeJay out of any SF game, but NOOO, we HAVE to have them in SF4. Hate all three.
Though the news of the SF3 characters makes me happy. Let's hope it's legit stuff.
I always found it funny that T-Hawk was supposed to be mexican. I mean, come on.
For example, today I found:
...and I know a former GameSpot Mod that's getting a little bit of literature in his stocking this holiday season!
*tee-hee!*
I'm with you on DeeJay. He has got to be the most generic character the series has ever had. I guess they figured they could give him maracas and the rest would take care of itself.
