I wanted orange! It gave me lemon-lime

For those of you that don't get the reference, I recently bought a copy of Deus Ex: GOTY Edition. In my personal opinion, Deus Ex is one of the legends of the gaming industry. Creating a perfect blend of FPS shooting action, RPG character customisation, space-limited inventory system ala Resident Evil 4, multiple routes towards every objective, and ingame choices affecting later events, the game is truly a masterpiece.
The funny thing is, I've played it before. I rented it once for PS2, and yet I was still shocked when I learnt it used the Unreal engine. I've had bad experiences with games made using licensed engines before (Pariah), but it's done tastefully well in Deus Ex. Expect a review sometime in the future.

Black FAQ

Well, my Black Tactical Guide FAQ has been approved here at Game Revolution. The guide covers the general tactics I used to finish the game on Normal difficulty. It contains some general tactics and some enemy specific ones too.
Check it out sometime.

You won't believe what I found
Posted on Thursday, March 1 2007 @ 23:10:15 Eastern
So I was in town the other day returning Resident Evil 4 to United Video, and I thought I'd stop in the mall and browse.
While I was in there, I looked in The Warehouse, and I found one of the best games of all time hidden in the software section for ten dollars: Sam & Max Hit the Road.
Apparently LucasArts re-released it along with some others as part of their 'Classics' series. I agree with that title entirrely.
Here's hoping next time I go there that Day of the Tentacle is there too!

Well, the Christmas season is nearly dead, and so far to me it's been one good one. During this Christmas season, I picked up several new games and some rather nifty computer accesories. The games I got are Destroy All Humans! 2, a rather entertainin... read more...

I finally found it!
Posted on Sunday, December 10 2006 @ 20:43:05 Eastern
I now hold quite possibly the greatest RPG ever made. It's taken me years to track down a copy of this bad boy, and now all that hard, half-assed work has finally paid off. I now own a copy of Wild Arms. The first in the series, a PSone gem. Expect a... read more...

What I've been doing with my life
Posted on Tuesday, November 21 2006 @ 20:14:53 Eastern
Well, it's been a week since I officialy graduated from my school, Avondale College, and so I've found myself with a little extra time on my hands. To pass the time I've been playing a bit of Co-op Serious Sam, which I've enjoyed. I've even got me on... read more...

Don't believe the hype
Posted on Thursday, October 26 2006 @ 04:46:58 Eastern
You know, I've played a lot of games in my time. From 'in the limelight' games like GTA:SA and UT2004, to silent hits like X2 - The Threat and Red Faction, and I have to say that sometimes, the game no-one's ever heard of can be just as good, if not ... read more...

Well, the title says it all. I now have XFire. I've had it for a while now, but only recently have I actually felt that me having it was worth a blog entry at GR. For those interested, my XFire name is tyrranis, and I'm using the nickname L4Y Duke.... read more...

Apology

Well, I know I said that in my last entry to my blog that my Evil Genius review would be up shortly, and I only recently put it up after about a month, so I apologise for the delay. I've just been so busy with my school work and being an admin at Lev... read more...

Before Microsoft and Sony do something regarding their future in the video game business, I wanted to write, and I've wanted it for a long time now, but other things kept getting in my way, and fearing that tomorrow might be too late, today will have to do.
Months ago,...
