(Sorry for the lateness of this post faithful readers, both of you, but an overdose of internet locked out my account for a week so I'm catching up on some posting)
Here is the fourth and final instalment of my Return to WoW blog entries on my relapse into severe warcraft addiction. If you're feeling adventurous or decidedly masochistic you can read part 1, part 2 and part 3 but don't feel like you have to just because I asked really nicely and made big bambi eyes, I just look that adorable naturally. The last week of my paid for month was highlighted by an important milestone. I promised myself if I reached level 55 with my main I'd download Wrath of the Lich King, the most recent expansion and gift myself with a Death Knight, a special Heroic Class only available to players with a character above level 55. Well chopping up skeletons in the Western Plaguelands and running errands for ghosts was interrupted by that oh so sweet ding and flash of light that promised a new level and I logged out straight away to download Wrath of the Lich King.
In the words of Oppenheimer, I have become death.

You think one ninja is badass? Consider the badassary of an entire storm of them, throwing shuriken all over the place and turning into logs. Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm on the PS3 is visually a pretty amazing game, I’ve not played it myself but watching my son play the hell out of it I can tell you the graphics bring the cartoon to vivid life. Recreations of scenes from the show using the graphics engine look almost identical and sometimes better than the 2D animation.

What do we know about Fallout: New Vegas? We know it’s coming from Bethesda but made by Obsidian. We know it’s not the next game by Bethesda’s in house magic makers led by Todd Howard. We know it takes part on the west coast of the US in California, a return for the Fallout series after Fallout 3’s focus on Washington and the east coast. We know that despite these things I am indecently excited about this game.
We also know that there is now a trailer which you can watch after the break.

As of this Tuesday past you and your fellow Australians (and New Zealanders) can finally see all that stuff Major Nelson posts about in his Twitter as Microsoft updates the Live dashboard for the Pacific Rim (he he, rim). Inside Xbox is a series of videos featuring game previews, interviews with developers, editorials and video guides on getting started and gaining achievements in some of the latest release games. Compared to some the features we’re still missing out on it’s a bit annoying that we get something that’s purely marketing focused, but it’s still a cool feature and worth checking out |

Some of THQ’s recent successes (and one underappreciated wii game) have had sequels announced overnight. Good for THQ, they needed a few hits and luckily it has happened with some quality games. Funny that, make a good game and people will buy it… Most of the time

Before anyone says anything Armoury is spelt with a U, are we clear on that? It looks better, sounds better, it's just the proper way to spell it. In the press release Gearbox saw fit to use the 'lazy' American spelling to announce the Secret ArmoUry of General Knoxx, the third and best looking expansion to Borderlands. But we're not lazy here at TAGS, dropping letters off words all over the place, we have u's and we're not afraid to use them.
Oh and the DLC will feature new missions, new weapons, new enemies, new vehicles all in a huge all new area of the game. If you enjoyed fighting the Crimson Lance get ready to fight a whole bunch more. The level cap has even been raised with this expansion. If there was one bit of Borderlands DLC you were going to get, it should be this one!
There's another image after the jump but if you wanted an excuse to get back into Borderlands and level your characters up, this is it.

There’s a special kind of crazy that's part and parcel with certain games from the land of the rising sun, a crazy that western developers will never emulate, a certain style of presentation that warps the mind and tickles the senses. Bayonetta has the experience in spades and diamonds and while the gameplay has a lot of similarities to similar third person action games, notably its development predecessor the original Devil May Cry, it’s pretty safe to say you’ve never played a game anything like Bayonetta. While it might be an acquired taste for some it’s flashy, violent action and tongue in cheek over sexualisation will win over most gamers of both genders.

Remember back when we posted about the Uncharted prequel and that it was being released in the form of a motion comic? Not wanting to pick Dark Void up, since the demo was a bit crap and the reviews are telling me it’s not much better. Instead, I finally got around to downloading Uncharted: The Eye of Indra - needing my Uncharted and Nolan North fix - since it was around 2 days since I played a game staring the voice actor extraordinaire.

Jay Weinberg, parody singer songwriter from The Energy Commission, is about to explode onto the internet with this Modern Warfare 2 video that defines my addiction to the game. I bet it defines yours too.
