^Reviewed.  So nothing good.  I think we must be over it.  The internet went wild with this the last few years, which is natural, it's all link bait for clicks.

I got taken today, the cubscast.com podcast started with a late trade announcement that the Cubs were moving the albatross that is Alfonso Soriano to the Padres.  Sadly, it was an April Fools lie.

It's dead everywhere today.  Is it because of Easter?

The Last Story update #5:
column_05_bg.jpg
Translation of the text in the blog, here:

Hoshimi no Tou, literally "Star Viewing Tower," is an actual location in the world of The Last Story. Write's the game's producer, on The Last Story's primary setting of Ruli Island, Hoshimi no Tou is a tower from which the stars appear more beautiful. People look up at the stars from this tower, point to their guardian star, and speak.

The game's director describes one particular meeting at the tower. Two characters meet and speak about their dreams. "In this place that's sacred to the  Arganan Family, their hearts touch for just a moment."

"The girl" whistles a song whose words she's forgotten, writes the director, a melody about people torn apart that has been handed down in her family.

Both characters lost their parents in their youth, but were able to survive even when surrounded by wars and power struggles. They both have difficult memories, but with time these memories turn into kindness.

"Everyone has a place that is special to them," writes the producer to close off the blog post. "For 'her,' this Hoshi no Tou appears to be an extremely important place."

 That's almost as bad as when they show a game at E3 and 3 years later we are still waiting.

Yeah. The art is incredible!

I can't wait to see what this game is like. It better come here or I'll throw my Wii out the window!

Okay, I won't do that but I'll be mad!

DICE Wants Free DLC Maps for Bad Co.2
- I hope EA does it, just to burn Activision.

YES!!! This would be a awesome way of getting back at Activision. IGN wrote a recent article saying how the map pack was the biggest rip-off and scam among DLCs. $15 for 3 new maps and 2 recycled ones is a slap in the gaming communities face. I didn't buy it at all and don't care too.

The free maps for Battlefield Bad Company 2 on the other hand is pretty cool! Even though they're just interchanged maps of previous ones, the way it's laid out makes them feel like new maps!

I hope EA/Dice does these things more so maybe Modern Warfare 2 players will come over to the light! LOL

I really enjoyed Modern Warfare 2 but if Activision is going to spit on our faces like this, I just don't see how I can support them.

This is a good read - 360s missing games

http://www.computerandvideogames.com/article.php?id=239890

10. THE WITCHER: RISE OF THE WHITE WOLF
The Witcher, a PC RPG, had a lot going for it. An interesting combat system, a vast fantasy world, an approach to moral decisions that rivals Mass Effect's. But more than that, it had ornately hand-painted norks. Yes, our voluptuously haired hero was a dab hand with the steel blade, but he was a dabber hand with the fleshy one. And being, as it was, a classy Eastern European developed venture, every lady bedded rewarded you with a picture of herself in the nude. Often performing some kind of ludicrous erotic act, such as ladling milk down herself. Needless to say, PC gamers were willing to forgive some of its shortcomings.

Happy was the day that original devs, CD Projekt RED STUDIO, announced a 360 port on the way courtesy of French developers Widescreen Games. A game that had blossomed on PC thanks to patches and tweaking would arrive on consoles in its perfected state. Even better perhaps, thanks to a new combat system and a reworking of enemy AI, boss battles and character development. Having played through the PC version - hunting down the lady cards like a sexier version of the US Army's most-wanted Iraqi deck - we couldn't wait to get reacquainted.

Unfortunately, CD Projekt couldn't wait to get reacquainted either - after Widescreen failed to meet development deadlines they cut funding. The two companies parted and Rise of the White Wolf has been put on indefinite hold. For the time being you'll have to get your painted perv-o-thrills the old fashioned way.

Played some MGS4 last night and man this game is sooooooooo freakin' awesome! First off the game looks bloody gorgeous. I'm also really digging the new mechanics of the gameplay especially being able to now move while croutched. The story is typical Kojima greatness so far with incredible attention to detail and deeply philosophical. It's really cool manuvering around the area while these opposing forces battle each other. There's lots of different ways you can take to reach your goal and a lot of nooks and crannies to sneak to and from.

The Mk. II is a great little device you can use to scout ahead and disarm traps with as well as distracting and taking out enemies.

I also tried some of the online game and it's the same terrific fun as MGS3 was only even better. I'm really looking forward to playing more online after I play through the main game at least once.
