Reflex Gamer: The Magazine: The Blog II

Somebody’s been playing too many videogames…

From the Wikipedia page for the 2005 Narc remake: "However, as in real life, drug use leads to consequences such as addiction, blackouts, and loss of health and reputation points"

Dear Square-Enix,

Nice background. Your cover art skills are matched only by the recent cherry bombs you've dropped down the gaming toilet. Here's hoping you didn't switch to the DirectX code base for this one.

History

Back in the old days, somebody used to get slugged, really hard, on the arm for the horrible things he'd make real life people do in The Sims 2. That person has been taking it out on the world ever since.

Uncharted 2: The Holy Shit Medley

For those of you still crying yourselves to sleep in your Gears of War 2 pillowcases and bedspreads (We're thinking Cliffy B. here), one intrepid Neogaf member harvested a small sampling of a particular obscenity used to describe Uncharted 2. It's beautiful. For those angered by this blatant attempt to shirk ...

Way of the Samurai 3 post-release preview

While I haven't spent enough time with the latest in the sandbox samurai series, I know it's not gripping me as much as the first game did. It's more confusing to navigate and doesn't really offer up much more than the original. What I do know is this: Developers, you are ...

Addendum: Carmack, please don’t murder us

In researching the previous review to make sure John Carmack did what I thought he did, I found this on his Wikipedia entry: "...when Carmack was 14, he broke into a school to steal Apple II computers, was arrested, and sent for psychiatric evaluation (the report mentions "no empathy for other human beings") Let ...

Wii developer misses former glory, fucks up

Go ahead, laugh. That's the makers of Hudson's Adventure Island and Hudson's Adventure Island 2 feeling the effects of staying on the fringes of game development for too long, and the whole website that isn't banner ads or menus is composed of these errors at the moment. What next, will ...

Man pays way too much for videogame that isn’t Call of Juarez

Just in time for Nissei Week, somebody has celebrated the excess wealth that America uses wisely and purchased a rare Nintendo cartridge, formerly used for some bullshit contest that loosely imitated the Fred Savage/Whatsername flick, The Wizard. Going at a whopping $17,500, it just proves that rare cartridges are the ...

A small correction

In our review of Resident Evil 5, we referred to the writers of Kotaku as sex gods. We meant to write "sex offenders". We're sorry for any confusion. Comic Shop Guy quote of the day: "ALL Pokemon are sexy". With a straight face. Stupid expo rats of the day: Asking if we ...

Gamespot and their dimension-hopping users

I have to stop and eat some humble pie here. Not only has Gamespot become so popular that it is now pulling users from some alternate dimension where Shenmue Online was released, but the game also has more users than I had anticipated.

Red Dead Redemption to possibly not suck as much as first game

I know I'm bitter and alone in considering Red Dead Revolver to be a cumbersome, bulky, unplayable shooter, and I'm fine with that. I don't have to experience you guys do nailing total cows at last call. But I'm always game to give a Western-themed game a second shot. So ...

I like big behinds…

I suck. I've moved twice in the last month, the last time involving pitchforks and fire, and my nigga 4 life Mike has been back in his home of Chicago, apparently too blissful or too good to reply to any messages or subpoenas sent his way. The store website is ...

DOA Paradise

Well, we tried. We tried and tried, we said a lot of bad words, we verbally abused any of you stupid enough to enjoy Halo 3 aka Halo 1.2, but we have lost the war. Despite Tecmo's main fucking retard Itagaki being placed in cryogenic stasis to relegate him to a ...
