This is the 3rd time Godzilla has faced off against his mechanical foe, but this time is slightly different. As a little back story the original iteration was built by aliens to make it easy. This time around however the story has changed.

In the 2002 version This is an entirely different Godzilla than originally attacked Japan. Japan now in an effort to fight back has recovered the bones of the original and is using the DNA to build Mechagodzilla.

The story itself isn’t bad and the battle is fierce and like many of the previous Godzilla movies there is no clear cut winner. The thing I enjoy about these later movies is the stories are much more detailed and in depth than simply two monsters fighting each other which is nice and worth checking out. Definitely check it out, and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Ever wondered what’s the difference between a “game mechanic” and “gameplay”? Here’s 10 examples to help you understand. Take with salt: ?

So I started up this bad boy with low to medium expectations. Honestly I was thinking the space battles would be fun, the arcade mode solid with the real excitement to be had in the land battles. But how did it it compare to expectations?

Well the space battles while a little odd are fun but a but repetitive boiling down to kill some ships blow up shields blow up more ships. Still the controls are responsive.

The arcade mode, well lets be honest we all thought playing an Darth Maul would be fun, and guess what? Playing as Darth Maul is fun. You run around with a double sided light saber force choking people and stabbing them. I could not ask for more.

Down to the part we all were waiting for. The ground battles. The beta contained a mode where you bounce back and forth between offense and defense basically. One side will attempt to steal an artifact while the other side attempts to defend it. If you like multiplayer games from DICE you will love this one as well without a doubt.

Now one thing I haven’t touched on was graphics. This will be short and sweet. They are absolutely beautiful. I experienced 0 frame rate issues or anything of the sort. That being said, if you missed out on the beta you missed out on a fun weekend. I for one however will be waiting for a sale if I buy it at all. May the gaming gods bring you glory.

Freddy is back in the final battle with Nancy. This time however it is quite a bit different from the other movies as Nancy isn’t Nancy. She is Heather Langenkamp. Wes Craven plays Wes Craven and even John Saxon plays John Saxon. Many of the characters play themselves as the lines between fiction and reality become blurred. Heather is dealing with a stalker while her husband secretly works on a new Freddy project that Wes is writing. Slowly but surely things start to take a strange turn as things on the movie set start happening, people working on the movie start dying and of course Heather’s son starts to have odd dreams.

The explanation for all this sounds really odd but it comes together very nicely, and while back in 1994 the idea that a Freddy movie would take place in the real world and acknowledge the others as movies to bring him into the real world as an entity that has existed for millennia sounded insane. However, Wes Craven created a movie that both gave us another Freddy movie while leaving past movies intact. May he forever rest in peace, and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Before the Mummy, Wolfman and Frankenstein Monster, there was one character that launched the Universal Monster series into full gear- Count Dracula. Although it wasn’t the first film to feature a vampire, “Dracula” cemented vampire culture deep into cinematic history; making it the best film to represent Thirsty Thursday’s. […]

October is coming. In fact its a few hours away. For most people that mean very little. For me and Torsten, well we have what may seem to many a an odd tradition. You see many years ago we both worked at a place we both hated. ok well he still work there, anyway we decided one Halloween since we were both off we would go to his place order pizza and watch horror movies all day. That tradition a lasted our entire friendship. Now because of work and such some times it has fallen onto days around Halloween. Now what that means for all of you is simple. While we cover mostly games and horror movies anyways, but October will be full of horror movies from Nightmare on Elm Street to Stephen King and more.  For those reading it if you want to drop some request feel free and we will do our best to track them down and review those as well. As always may the gaming gods bring you glory.

The latest entry into the Sega Forever catalog is one of many of these flying shooter games. I would however love to have been in the room for this pitch. “Hey lets make a space shooter.It will be called Space harrier” – Guy 1  ” Ok cool so a space jet?”-Guy 2 “Nah, dude with a red jump suit carrying a cannon”-Guy  “Hell yea make this happen”-Guy 2″ Seriously was there alcohol involved with this decision?  All that aside the game controls nicely and the sound is better than I remember. While this isn’t exactly the type of game I enjoy it was a nice nostalgia trip and fans of the genre and series won’t be disappointed. So go support Sega Forever and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
