SICK | "Kingdom Under Fire II" trailer
This was one of my favorite games for the original Xbox, with its cinematic cut-scenes and multi-character battles. I'm stoked for its 360 installment, which may be a MMO strategy game.
SICK | DJ Hero gameplay sample
I remained reluctant to become a groupie of the entire Rock Band/Guitar Hero movement. It just wasn't my thing, you feel me. But this right here...this ish right here negus, I can dig it. This could be a possible Christmas gift, the first toy I've gotten since the original Xbox.
90skd | Round 1, FIGHT
If you're a 90skd, there had to me a moment in your life that you heard this words scribbled in blood across a television screen. Mortal Kombat set the tone for future violence in games, and other fighters as well. The story of ancient evils paralleling into Earthrealm in hopes of total destruction never got old with every later installment. I can remember multiple visits to our mall, plugging a mere $o.50 in a machine to battle Lui Kang in the Dead Pool in MK II. Later, once I copped a N64, I was estactic when I first rented MK Trilogy, jumping up and down for joy inside the video store. The use of real people in the 2d world made the kombat more authentic. And let's not get started on the spreading of the franshice from the movie (I only refer to the first one because the sequel was horrendous) to the animate series, and even the short-lived live action show. I still smile with complete gidiness at any MK news. They'll always hold a bloodied, borken spot in my heart.
Top 5 favorite MK characters:
-
Raiden - the unprecedented thunder god and sworn protector of the Earthrealm. With white light for eyes and a knack for slamming his opponents against the wall, Raiden was always my first pick.
Sheeva - a female Goro (since many characters were just replicas of others) was a beast. Her tele-slam was my specialty. Her fate in Annihilation though was nothing yell about thought.
Blind Kenshi - the only character from the latter installments that really enjoyed. Proabably because of the fact that he's blind and kicked kombatant ass.
Scorpian/Sub-Zero - It's a tie for obvious reasons. The two rivals are like MK's Wolverine and Sabertooth. Each ninja's abilities - Sub's manipulation of ice and Scorpian's spear - are synonymous with the franchise.
-
Sindel - The only character deemed interesting in Annihilation, the mother of Kitana and cursed wife of Shao Khan was a force to eb reckoned with. Her screeching banshee cry and hair toss kept me alive many a times.
Honorable mentions:
- Kitana
- Jade
- Sonya Blade
- Lui Kang
- Any of the multicolored ninjas

In other news it seems the Republican party has invested in another tactic of becoming hip other than showing off their token blacky. Former Alaska governor Sarah '2012 (LOL)' Palin has allegedly signed some stan's Xbox 360, hiking the console to an Ebay-worthy price of $1 million. I wish I would..... Full story here.
New New | Aliens vs. Predator trailer
Two of the most infamous film creatures collide in one video game experience that should scare your bowels out of any constipated state. I never watched Predator, but thought he/it was dope. He looked like an alien Rastafarian until he opened his mouth. Alien on the other hand scared the living daylights out of me. It's all about the lunch scene in the first installment that ruined sci-fi creatures for me. I even whimpered when a fake Alien was part of a film ride down at Disneyworld. I don't like dark, fast, insect like things I have to kill in the dark in my video games.
- cool thought: i read up on this in the latest issued of OXM, and the game provides the player a choice to choose from being an Alien, the Preadator, or a dopey human being.
SICK | Batman Arkham Asylum
As we all await a Dark Knight sequel, get your Caped-Crusader on in this exciting and hopefully well-crafted Batman adventure.
'01 | Zone of the Enders
Now this is a classic I'd love to see get the next gen treatment. I distinctively remember trippin' out when my best friend and I played this on his PS2. The entire game was sick from the story, to the gameplay. One of my favorites.
SICK | E3: Star Wars: The Old Republic
I'm not a Star Wars fanatic or anything, just a gaming one. Looks awesome.
SICK | E3: Xbox Project Natal
I will be posting mulitple debut trailers from the E3 Expo as they become available. Xbox reveals its next innovative experience to compete with the highly popular Wii. Introducing Xbox's Project Natal.
Seems totally Jetsons. Wonder how well they actually develop it; and, frankly, wtf they will think of next. Props to TSS.
