Starting January 30, 2010 to February 14, 2010, GameStop and Nintendo are offering you the chance to get a Level 30 character that cannot be acquired through normal gameplay. Just bring your Pokémon Diamond Version, Pokémon Pearl Version or Pokémon Platinum Version Game Card and your Nintendo DS or Nintendo DSi system to a GameStop store and you’ll be able to wirelessly add this unique Pokémon to your Pokédex.

Tatsunoko vs. Capcom has arrived!!! That is right true believers, the crossover fighting game that pits characters from the Japanese animation studio Tatsunoko Production and video game company Capcom has hit the states as of January 26, 2010.

Okay, so knowing that although I love fighting games verses games really aren’t my thing and wondering if I really want to play a fighting game with a Wii Remote, do I buy this game or not???

Well the box art is pretty anyway.

Achievement Summary

Thursday, January 8th, 2009

Wow, I cannot believe it is already 2009. Since I haven’t been around since Thanksgiving, Happy New Year all. New for 09 I will be giving you, my loyal readers quicky summaries of my Microsoft Gamerscore.

Last night was my third night playing Left 4 Dead. I must say I am really enjoying the game. I was a bit worried about the length or lack there of that everyone has been talking about. I took the plunge since I had a $25 gift card to GameStop and even found it used so I save an extra $5.

 On to the important stuff…achievements.  As you can probably guess all of last nights achievements came from Left 4 Dead.  I got a total of 70 points from 5 achievements.

  • My Bodyguard
    Protect any Survivor from an attacking Infected 50 times.
  • Towering Inferno
    Light a Tank with a Molotov.
  • Burn the Witch
    Light a Witch with a Molotov.
  • Brain Salad
    Make 100 headshot kills.
  • Pyrotechnician
    Blow up 20 Infected in a single explosion.

This give me 265 of 1000 for Left 4 Dead and a total gamerscore of 3,085.

Happy Thanksgiving and…

I broke my own rule…

Tuesday, October 14th, 2008

As those of you who know me, you know, like in real life…I am one cheap sob. So surprise, surprise, my love of my new Xbox 360, along with my love of Gears of War (which I am currently playing), not to mention the peer pressure of my two friends on Xbox Live to buy Gears of War 2 has become overwhelming. That is right true believers, I have pre-ordered Gears of War 2. Breaking not one but two of the most fundamental rules that I live by, Don’t ever pre-order games and Don’t ever pay full price for a game. I just keep telling my self it will be worth it, it will be worth it.
