So I was Talking with Jeffery aka Temperence and he was telling me about Devil Summoner for ps2, so I looked it up and apparently Atlus has already rereleased both Devil summoner 1 and 2  for $29.99 on Amazon, so thanks for that info Jeffrey I will be placing my order in a few days, and it looks exactly like the original print, now whether Devil summoner 2 will release with the plushi is unknown but if I find out I will let you all know.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution is one of my favorite games of this generation, and Square Enix is bringing a Director's Cut version to the Wii U sometime soon. Normally that wouldn't elicit much of a response from me. I think it's great when a great game becomes available to a wider audience but I've already played it, so it doesn't affect me, right. Not in this case. Eidos Montreal is fixing the game's weakest and most frustrating part: the boss fights. While at PAX East, one of the game's designer's told Joystiq (read the whole story here) that the level layouts have been completely redone to allow multiple ways to take down each boss, like stealth and hacking, instead of just pouring as many bullets into them as possible. As he said, "The boss fights are now as they should have been."

Cary's Top Five Favorite Video Game Ghosts

Published on March 23, 2013 3:53 PM - 5 minute read

With Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon recently released, I tried to think of my favorite ghosts from the first game, as a lot of them had quite a bit of personality.  But it’s been such a long time since I played that game that I couldn’t think of enough to write about.  But then I started thinking about my favorite ghosts in other video games in general.  I think ghosts are kind of neat.  You know those dumb ghost hunter and ghost story shows you see on TV?  Yeah, I watch those sometimes.  It’s a guilty pleasure thing.  I might also watch a stupid ghost movie on Netflix from time to time, and of course, Ghostbusters is one of my all-time favorite films.  So in honor of Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon coming out, here’s a list of my top five favorite ghosts in video games!

Well, I have been playing White Knight Chronicles 2 non-stop lately.  Its been my go-to game.  And I have loved doing the grinding and leveling up my character and now im level 58 and ready to go after my own Incorruptus for my avatar figure. Which everything Ive read says you really need to do that and finish the game to get into the online.

This isn't a review.  My gf played the game.  I occasionally watched and helped her get through tough shootouts.  For what it's worth, I like the Tomb Raider reboot. Some impressions:

Gamer's block? Yeah, kinda feeling it.

Lately I’ve been in a gamer funk. There’s been a lot of games coming out I want but none that I’m willing to drop $60.00 on. In my older age I’ve become more of an overly cautious miser it seems. As excited as I am about the new Tomb-Raider, I’m not THAT excited. I’m sure I’ll love it in my own special way but it will not be quite the same as getting Knights Of The Old Republic from a dear friend as a gift or picking up ShadowHearts covenant from Game Stop. The PS2/Xbox era was the height of my gaming innocence and since then my hyper exuberance has been replaced with a mix of pessimism and lukewarm enjoyment.

WayForward is just awesome

It's a well known fact that I like Wayforward, I rank them next to Retro Studios as my most favorite developers. When it comes to games, WayForward's expertise is 2d games, good ones. While they may not be perfect games, they are good at what they do. Contra 4 and Shantae are perfect examples of this mastery of the pixel styled art. Batman the Brave and the Bold showed me that Batman can still be campy and a fun beat em up side scroller with cartoon styled visuals. Mighty Switch Force was the game that told me how awesome they were, it's a fun game with an interesting twist on the platforming genre. I loved that game on my 3DS so much that I bought it again on the Wii U. Plus they also announced something I wasn't expecting from them, a sequel to Mighty Switch Force:

       This is the GunCon 3. Made for use with the PS3 by Namco. Can't say I know a single person who owns one. And I've never used it before. Not very intimidating is it? Maybe it's the blinding orangeness of it,perhaps? I know why they made it orange,of course. So kids don't get shot by someone if they're walking down the street with it. On the way to a friend's house to play games with them. Can't be too careful these days. Things were much different when I was a kid. I had a plastic/metal M16 that looked just like the real thing. And a cap gun that looked like a real revolver. Even worked like a pistol,and loaded the same as well. I don't think 007 has much to worry about from any nemesis who is packing the GunCon 3,though. I got to thinking about this thing after buying Resident Evil:Dead Aim recently. We play it with a regular controller.but it was made for the GunCon2. So I started to investigate the matter.......

Programming Note:  These early posts on the first couple Final Fantasy games are heavy on biography and nostalgia.  I will likely suppplement them with further discussion on the merits of the games themselves at a later date.
