So if you have been keeping tabs you all know that Halo: Reach will be gracing us soon enough but just this week Bungie released a video trailer showing off their glorious multiplayer. Did it really just look like every other Halo multiplayer we have blown each other to smithereens in before? Yep, sure does. But there does seem to be a few new little things they have tossed in there for us.

Gwinett Bierce defines genius as knowing without having learned — drawing just conclusions from unknown premises — to discern the soul of things. On a slight contrary but ultimately the same premise, an individual such as George-Louis says genius is nothing but a great aptitude for patience. Fitting the basic idea of both these people [...]

Monster Hunter Tri (3) is one of the Wii’s most anticipated releases for this year — selling over 500,000 copies on its launch week in Japan in 2009 — and promises to be one of the most visually stunning and satisfying Wii games.

Every video game has them. Those characters that just make you cringe when you hear or see them. Like fingernails on a chalkboard you just want it to stop and never happen again. Whether they’re flat out annoying in their dialog or mannerisms, poorly dressed, or way too flamboyant these digital abominations should never have made the final cut.

It may not be the first video game to showcase the fast paced button mashing, combo stringing, epic boss fighting elements of this type of game (I think Devil May Cry takes that title) but the fact of the matter is the God of War series has refined the genre to a point of near perfection.

It’s easy for me to equate Sega to that horrible little abomination Kuato from the classic movie Total Recall because were I a fortune telling infant head attached to a dudes stomach, I too would be actively wishing for death. And over the years I can only imagine Sega views itself as a mutant not meant for this world. Why else have they been trying to, unsuccessfully mind you, murder themselves?
