Quick Note: Star Trek

Im too tired to write a full post tonight, but i will post a quick note. I was thinking of doing this on the LOST finalie, however i have no way of doing that spoiler free, so instead, ill mention the fantastic thing i saw today. STAR TREK. To put it simply, it was AMAZING. No way in my wildest dreams did i think it would live up to the hype, but it did that plus much more. The casting is the best ive seen in a movie since the dark night. I wont get into a full review right now, but bottom line here is its GREAT. If you have doubts, cast them away and go see it. and for gods sake enjoy. Give the few slow moments there are a chance because every scene almost made me pee my pants with excitement and enjoyment (though im sure the coke didnt help either…) Thats it. Go see it.

Review – Resident Evil Degeneration (iPhone)

I jumped onto Gizmodo about an hour ago to be instantly angered about the reveal of the Zune phone rumors being a big joke created by an Apple fanboy. Then i realized, Who needs a ZunePhone (ZPhone? Phune?) when i have a soon to be old iPhone 3G, especially when Resident Evil Degeneration has just been released!

General idea here is an iphone version of a game previously released on the N-Gage (yes, it wasn’t a nightmare, they were real.). The plot is paper thin. Even when compared to the movies already light story, it comes down to: You are Leon S Kennedy. You kill zombies. You kill zombies in airport. Though the plot, or rather lack thereof, can be easily forgiven, as it is a 9MB iPhone game. However, because of the fact that it is an iPhone game, the controls are iffy. By far the best Ive experienced in any off rails shooter on the platform, but if your used to other RE games, ditch the default inverted Y-Axis, because when the zombie flight attendents come knockin, the backwards controls…just plain suck. Bottom line here is that it is an iPhone game. Its a Resident Evil game. Those two together sound scary, but the game is good. Rather or not you believe it to be worth the 7.99 it costs is up to what you think iPhone games in general are worth. However the enjoyment is here. The game is worth the buy, but real RE fans will likely already have it by the time they get around to reviews.

Back again…

Sorry about the false restart of my little blog last time. This time ill try to stick around.

Listening to ListenUp is getting me really excited for E3, and while i should be getting to sleep- I would like to make some quick E3 predictions, which i will follow up on in much more detail tomorrow.

Nintendo- To stay on top, Nintendo will have to pull out all the guns, swords, and mushrooms. A new Mario DS game along with the newly announced remakes of Pokemon G/S will have to be spotlighted. In addition, i would like to say that even though the Wii is a totally joke system as of now, i think it will change this year. I say this because if it doesnt happen this year, we (We being the serious gamers.) will be screwed.

Sony- New PSP. (PSP Go!). That plus a few big name titles for the PS3, and maybe one for the PSP (LBP-Go! ??).

Microsoft- Microsoft needs to steer away from trying to make NXE into somthing more then it needs to be, and bring their focus back games. First party or not, they need to be good. A good line up for MS this year could put the 360 back on top. I expect a fun FFXIII announcement (Demo? as of now PS3 exclusive…)

Again, i will elaborate more tomorrow, but i need to get to sleep. G’night!
