GTA 4

I read an article today stating that GTA4 sales have topped 500 million. I don't know about you guys, but that seems insane to me.  So far, everyone I know that has played the game has said it's been a blast. I guess it's a little hard for me to fall prey to the hype, mainly because 1. I do not enjoy FPS games, and 2. murdering people and stealing their cars doesn't seem fun to me. :)

It will be interesting to see if the sales begin to slow down, or if we will continue to see crazy sales numbers.

Myst for Nintendo DS


I read today that Myst will be released next month on Nintendo DS. I think it's going to be interesting, to say the very least, to see how Mysts complex puzzles and details will come over on the hand held display of the DS. Apparently, the player will be using dependant on the stylus completely for interaction with the game. I can imagine that this could be rather complex, but the addition of a magnifying glass to see the small details might help a bit. I can't wait to see this. I adore the Myst games.

Massively interviews LFG from EQ2Flames amid scandal

I read an article today on massively.com that was interesting to say the least, and extremely juicy at best. I spent a good part of a work day reading the accusations and theories on the SOE boards and a few on the EQ2 flames site as well. To sum it up, apparently developers were allegedly leaking information all over the place.  You can read the entire article Here

 

What do you think?

Agatha Christie Mysteries

I have to tell you guys, that I adore games like this. Puzzle games, crime games, murder mysteries always thrill me, and solving a whodunit is right up my alley. I got a game ages ago that I played for two days, but got so scared from it, that I had to stop. I'm going to have to ask my husband to purchase this game for me-- and I can't WAIT to play.

According to sources, it releases internationally today. Which is good, since I'll be the only person on the face of the planet who will play it.

Gamestop predicts Wii shortage for 6 more months

 

Gamestop is reporting that they will probably have a Wii shortage for the next 2 quarters. While this will make some holiday shoppers really freaking pissed off, the good news is they are slashing prices on other popular holiday purchases including the PSP, Xbox 360 and PS3. (Our family recently sold all 4 of our PSP's and our PS3.)

Our family doesn't play our Wii much. We've found it's great for family gatherings and drunken parties. Other than that...it collects dust.

Portable Guitar Hero

I read an article today on Joystiq that showed a picture of the Guitar Hero on Nintendo DS. I have to say, it looks like it would be hard as hell for someone to actually play. I'll have to show it to my daughter and see what she says.

Do we think this is going to be as big as the regular Guitar Hero releases?

Guitar Hero 3- New Guiness Book World Record Breaker

Apparently, a 16 year old kid has beaten the world record holder for high score in an individual song. Scoring a 97% on Expert difficulty on the song Through the Fire and Flames

I've decided I'm going to take a video of my daughter doing some of her guitar hero songs on expert. She's already broken one of the guitars from mashing the buttons too much...I cannot imagine how many this kid has broke in his guitar hero career. And also- why can't my daughter play a REAL guitar??

Age of Conan - Can we believe the hype?

The chatter about Age of Conan is incredible right now. Everyone I know is looking forward to this game's release.  Not only the people I game with on a day to day basis, but every fansite for every game out there has at least ONE thread in which people are discussing this game and what it has to offer.  Further, there are lots of people speculating it might just blow World of Warcraft out of the water.

I'm not sure about the WoW breaker beliefs, but I do know that if they've done this game right, it will be a fan favorite for sure. I know that we at BiCGaming are very excited about this release.
