Posted by austinreynolds on November 23, 2009

Nuke in MW2 Multiplayer

Posted by austinreynolds on November 1, 2009

In Modern Warfare 2’s multiplayer, if you happen to kill 25 enemies in a row without dying then you will be given the nuke. When activated, a nuclear bomb drops and kills everything. It takes out the other team, you, and your team. Just in case you haven’t figured it out by now; yes, that means you win.

Today the achievements for Left 4 Dead 2 were revealed. I was bored, so I made this video of all the achievements with an awesome song. The song is “Kissing Families” by Silversun Pickups.

Posted by austinreynolds on October 4, 2009

This is that new Modern Warfare 2 trailer that aired during Sunday Night Football. I am not a big fan of Call of Duty, but this one looks like it will be by far the best yet.

MMA Fighter Freaks Out, EA Developer Terrified, Hilarity Ensues

Posted by austinreynolds on October 3, 2009

Long story short, MMA fighter isn’t impressed with his stats on the new EA Sports MMA game and totally freaks out. This might be a little NSFW because of violence and excessive cussing (although it is bleeped out).

NFS Shift Has a Huge Fail

Posted by austinreynolds on September 27, 2009

If you look at the picture above, you will see that Need for Speed: Shift is unsuccessfully trying to get to the Playstation Store. Still wondering what the funny part is? This is the Xbox 360 version of the game… FAIL.

Sonic Adventure DX to Return?

Posted by austinreynolds on August 30, 2009

Sonic DX

Any owner of a Sega Dreamcast knows how awesome Sonic Adventure was.  In 2003, that game was released on the Gamecube under the name “Sonic Adventure DX Director’s Cut”.  It appears as if that game will be ported/remade one more time, because the Australian Ratings Board has just released a new rating for Sonic Adventure DX.  Other than that, all we know is that it is supposed to be multiplatform.  I’m personally hoping for a XBLA release, but as of right now we really don’t know anything.

Dark Void Gets Ship Date

Posted by austinreynolds on August 19, 2009

Dark Void

Dark Void will finally ship to stores in… wait for it… QUARTER 1 2010!!!!!!!!!!!!
All joking aside, the exact date is January 12 in North America. Europe will get it a few days later, on January 15. Personally, I haven’t read up much on this game, but there seems to be a decent amount of hype over it.
