I love the song used in this Japanese Video Game Boob Montage that I spotted on Destructoid. It has to be considered a J-Pop Punk Classis.

To my credit, I could never conceive of a video like this but I did watch it and I only own 1 of the titles included. How about you?

Watch and enjoy – you might remember SEGASHIRO as the guys that hooked us up with the Bayonetta Demo Codes that we than gave to SA fans. They are an awesome bunch and now we are syndicating them here.

Santa hasn’t hit the sleigh yet…or has he?

Anyway, the boxing day madness has already begun in Canada. Future Shop and Best Buy both have started their sales online and there are some gaming deals to be had such as Assassin’s Creed 2 for $39.99, Tony Hawk Ride for $99.99, and Saboteur for $39.99, and Red Faction for $29.99.

Check out Future Shop here and Best Buy here.

There are lots of titles to save on and some good deals on consoles.

Even Wii titles like Mad World and House of the Dead Overkill can be picked up for $15 bucks each.

No word yet on what Toy’r'us is doing but Walmart has their flyer up and they have the Nintendo DS at $109 – but you actually have to go into the store. :evil:

Response from Publisher: 
"I apologize for the issues you are having. Our blaster works like the Nintendo Zapper. Nintendo requires that for this type of accessory you use both hands. If the fire button was the 'Z' button you could play the game using one hand. Using the 'B'button forces the player to use both hands as required."
Terrible.

I know I’m a little late to the mark, but I recently stumbled across this gem in the used bin at my local GameStop, and had to pick up the poor thing. For those of you not familiar with this great brawler on the Gamecube (and PS2 later on, but I played on the GCN), it’s definitely something you need to look in to.

This game is full of cel-shaded goodness, which wonderfully compliments the beat-em up gameplay. Ben “Yahtzee” Croshaw has dubbed this game a “Spectacle Fighter”, and I have to say, that term perfectly describes this little diamond in the rough. Read the rest of this entry »

Ten Infected Valve Should Include in Left 4 Dead

left_4_dead_2_survivors

Left 4 Dead 2 is a game which made me a pretty happy man.  There were lots of improvements, despite a few steps backwards, and overall it was a welcome addition to the shelf.  One particular aspect most people seem to enjoy is the new infected (playable zombie characters), including: the Wandering Witch, the Charger, the Jockey, and the Spitter.  But why stop there?  I’ve got ideas a-plenty for new infected that will keep the survivors dying all the way to the bank (assuming it’s been converted into a makeshift cemetery).  Without further ado, here are the top 10 infected which should/should not be added to the Left 4 Dead franchise:

10. The Child Hurler: It’s just natural progression.  The first game had the Boomer, belching goo on top of you.  The second had the Spitter, vomiting venom all over the place.  It’s just natural that the next in line in zombie evolution is the Child Hurler – a zombie that simply throws child zombies at you like rocks from a satchel.  If you shoot its arm off it can no longer throw, but it is even better is to counter-hurl with a gas tank.  Or your own child.

megaman10
Issue 250 of Nintendo Power, which you can buy on December 22nd, will reveal that Megaman 10 (that’s 10, not X) is on the way!  Megaman 10 will be a downloadable 8-bit Wiiware game, and I would feel comfortable assuming that XBLA and PSN announcement isn’t far off.  You can read more about the leaked annoucement at Megaman Nation, but just take a second and look at that box art! It’s TERRIBLE! GLORIOUSLY TERRIBLE!
