Month: November 2008

  • Left 4 Dead [Embedded Reporter]

    Deep from the trenches, it’s time for your Monday video feature: Embedded Reporter. Saw this on Kotaku, thought it was kind of funny. Enjoy:

  • More L4D in Response [PC]

    The game they were mentioning in the podcast was Gears of War 2. I agree with that being kind of cool, but at the same time, we were all trying to really push ourselves and play the most challenging version of the game. Even if Simon had more experience, I still don’t think we would […]

  • Day 2 Impressions of the Zombie Apocalypse [PC]

    It’s the second day of the zombie apocalypse. No zombie can stand against Chicago Ted. How long does it take to turn after infection? Two weeks? Two days? 2.5 hours!? That’s some of the flavor text littered around the safe rooms in L4D to add to the atmosphere and, despite never seeing another human being […]

  • Left 4 Dead Impressions [PC]

    Hey Dan, did you stay up until around 0300 today playing Left 4 Dead after it went live last night? Uh…yeah… But oh man, where to begin? Valve does not rush a product. They don’t ever release a game that hasn’t been thoroughly playtested and optimized for consumption. It’s why the L4D demo is so […]

  • Warcraft Retrospective [Embedded Reporter]

    Deep from the trenches, it’s time for your Monday video feature: Embedded Reporter. I love the Gametrailers Retrospectives. They do a great job of summing up great games. This episode is all about the WoW games.

  • PA on GoW 2 Dialogue [You Can Quote Me On That]

    Here’s what Tycho has to say about the dialogue in Gears of War 2: Still. There is a point at which “the rookie” says there are a shitload of grubs down there. Marcus Fenix corrects him, suggesting that there are, in fact, “Ten Shitloads.” I want to grant that Gears of War takes place on […]

  • WoW and L4D [Game Overview]

    Insert another credit, because it’s time for your weekly video game news and you’ve just hit the Game Overview screen. Just a quick detour from the FF villains feature to talk about two great games that I’ve been playing recently. The first you’ve seen the opening cinematic for on the site. The second just released […]

  • Left 4 Dead [Embedded Reporter]

    Deep from the trenches, it’s time for your Monday Wednesday video feature: Embedded Reporter. I know it’s not Monday and that today should be a WMQ post, but I didn’t watch any sports last week and I’d have a really tough time trying to rationalize fighting off the Zombie Apocalypse as a sport, even though […]

  • Strange Bedfellows: Vote

    There is nothing more important for me to say today than vote. Go to your polling place, if you are registered to vote, and cast a ballot.

  • Embedded Reporter: Rockman 9

    Deep from the trenches, it’s time for your Monday video feature: Embedded Reporter. Why this? I can’t resist Rockman music! Enjoy.
