I’ve really been looking forward to this release and it’s finally here. From the video it looks like it will be a very similar game play as the console version so I’m excited to play. Only problem is, do I wait and let my husband buy it for my for Christmas or just go get it today. I’m not sure I’ll be able to wait…you know I have to review it for the show and all :)
OK so that might not be the actual name of the content but it sure sounds fun. Here is a great video by IGN showing some of the new gameplay with details on the release. Still not sure at what level we’ll actually be able to access the content.
So a few years ago X-Play previewed a game that had a story line that excited me. It involved a women going through the 7 layers of hell to find her son (at least that’s what my fuzzy memory remembers). The game was to be based on the poem The Devine Comedy, but unfortunately never came out and I pretty much gave up hope. So image my surprise when I stumble across a preview for Dante’s Inferno today. It’s the same concept of the 7 layers of hell, but instead of a woman it’s a badass dude. After watching the intro preview I immediately thought of one of my favorite games, God of War. Which pretty much means I’ll buy and play this game the day it comes out. The game isn’t going to be released until February 9, 2010, but previews of the game are being release. One level I’m sure that will cause a bit of a stir is Lust and fitting in with the theme of the level, the main boss has huge boobs with babies that come out of them and try and kill you. haha ya you heard me correctly. Check out the 2nd video below (warning there are cartoon boobs in this clip) to get a peek into the game play. I wonder if one of the developers was watching too much Austin Powers and got inspired by the fembots :)
I’m still not sure how I feel about the boobs, considering I know the audience they are trying to attract is male and I do understand they need to make the Lust level, well lusty. But it makes me think would it be appropriate if it was a giant penis?
Our very own Kim aka @randysmolly makes a cameo in the latest episode of The Guild! Look for her dorky cute self at at the 1:07 mark. If you’ve missed any of The Guild’s videos, checked them all out here. Hmmm I wonder if Felicia would consider coming on the show…she is a lady and very, very leet :)
Hmmm, not really sure what to say about this video. The commentary over the actual video isn’t all that funny, but what I was more interested in was how GameStop was going to make their women shoppers feel more at ease. I’m assuming this was a training video for employees, but wow are we that hard to sell video games too?
update- ok I’ve watched the video a couple of times and after getting over the initial shock of how Gamestop is suppose to address me when I entered the store (yep that’s exactly how they talk to me), I have a new found appreciation for the commentary over the video. That guy cracks me up!
The Guild is a great web series about a certain famous MMO (though they never say it’s WoW) and Felicia Day is the writer & main actor in the series (not to mention one awesome lady). You can support Felicia & the show by purchasing the mp3 for their new video on Amazon & iTunes or watching The Guild at http://watchtheguild.com
