Silent Hill: Revelation

Silenthill3DposterThe world is full of shitty movies, most of them by Uwe Boll; but I digress because I don’t want the German producer/director to knock me out.  It is for fear of Boll that we move away to another production company and this time pick on Lionsgate with our long awaited review of 2012’s Silent Hill: Revelation.

Writen by Michael J Bassett and staring Kit Harrington, and Holy Fuck they dragged Sean Bean and Malcolm McDowell into this shit fest.  No matter how much pouty GoT love this movie packs it will still set you back 94 minutes of unrecoverable time. Continue reading →

$29.99 in the eStore

We have been reluctant to pick up Castlevania: Lords of Shadow: Mirror of Fate for the Nintendo 3DS.  Why? You may ask.  Because 1) it has two fucking colons in its name and d) everything past Super Castlevania IV on the Super Nintendo has let us down and been a disappointment, and that includes Rondo of Blood.  But it was on sale so I picked it up figuring, what the hell it can’t be as bad as Castlevania 64…could it.

Did you ever play fucking silver surfer on the NES…yeah it sucked!

We have been spending a little bit too much time playing The Angry Video Game Nerd on the WiiU as of late.  For those of you not in the know about AVGN you need to check out Cinemassacre’s Youtube channel and give the nerd a chance.  For the record, he is not fucking safe for work!

Turns out they got a game released on the WiiU through the Nintendo e-shop.  It’s a retro styled platformer that may quite possibly be the hardest game we have ever played.  It is frustratingly difficult, combining all of the cheap knock-back, disappearing blocks, instant deaths that have plagued the video game industry since its inception…but it is done as a tribute and a mockery and intentionally to fuck with the player so it is OK.

imgresWe have been hopelessly addicted to Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate on the Nintendo 3DS since we purchased the game three weeks ago and we thought it necessary to share our opinion with the world.

From the brains at Capcom comes this action RPG title that will see you sinking hours of free time into grinding for material to upgrade your equipment.  This title is available via download or in store for $39.99 Continue reading →

New Nintendo 3DS

urlNew kit day, actually that came two weeks ago but we wanted to give it a complete look over to decide what we thought of the new upgraded “New Nintendo 3DS XL.”  That’s right Nintendo released a new 3DS Xl and made what some could consider minor changes to the device that improve performance, functionality and aesthetics.

This is the third iteration of the 3DS, not including the 2DS…which is just the guts of the 3DS without the 3D functionality so it doesn’t count.  The New 3DS XL (the standard size is not available in the US) sports enhancements over the original iteration, which came with a modest price increase to $199.00 Continue reading →
