E3 2008 :: Blog

Just look at her!  I've played the demo about 30 times and can't get tired of this game.  On top of that I can't get enough of the glimpses that we get of Faith.  I know she's not real but I've fallen for her.  It would be so cool to know a woman that can free run and fight.

If you have ever seen District B13 then you know why I"m feeling Faith so much.  Ok so here's a little background on Mirror's Edge.  The story follows Faith and her struggle to free her sister from a corrupt government. Her parents were killed while protesting against the government and she was forced to grow up on the street. One day, when she was still a young girl, she broke into an office belonging to a man named Mercury, who caught her but was impressed with her skills. Mercury then trained Faith as a runner.

Anyhow I have a deliema and don't know how I'm going to be able to buy Mirror's Edge after buying:

COD: World at War

Fable 2

DeadSpace

Little Big Planet

Gears of War 2

FarCry 2

All of these were purchased in the last month so I'm going to be suffering when this game drops on Nov 13th .  Looks like Farcry 2 is going on ebay or Craig's list.  the game sucks anyway so no lost. I'm even thinking about getting rid of Metal Gear for ME.  

I've added a great video for you to check out if you have never seen real world free running.

 

 

I never thought in my life that I would see a Black man as President of the United States!  My mother told me stories about being spit on and arrested for participating in sit-ins when she was a teenager in Alabama, and Mississippi.  If she was still here she would be proud.  I couldn't be more proud not as just a African America but as an American.  Please join me in supporting our new President of the United States of America.

Well I just finished the game and I have to say I love this game.  The ending wasn't the way I wanted to be but I think it was the best ending so far in a GTA game.  Now what they need to add is the ability to continue to play and build bigger fortunes and make more money.  One thing I did miss in this game was the lack of a garage to store cars in.  Yeah there were places to park my car on the street or get a couple of cars at the different safe houses, but I would have loved a lock up.

I also didn't like not being able to buy a business that would work for me, but then that would have been just like every other GTA so I can give them a pass on that detail.  Now i have to go back and complete all the stunts.  In the event you haven't done any of the stunts I've found a few videos that will show you where they are.  Check them out and have fun.

$300 to know what you think about gaming!

Okay $300 is what you will be paid if you agree to the survey. Here's what happened. One of my game industry contacts and an Entertainment Group that I can't name contacted me about getting some St. Louis gamers to spend some time taking a survey. It's about the Video Game industry of course and it's PAID! I know you hear about people being paid for medical research all the time but this is all about gaming. The pay is $300 for 2.5 hours of your time which in anyones book is good money. A great way to start your summer vacation right!

All the details are below so if you meet the qualifications just contact the research company to set up a time. We get absolutely nothing for you going but we do want to make sure you tell them you heard about it on AGZonline.com That's all we ask for hooking you up with the summer funding. The details are below:

Step 1: Turn on PS3

Step 2: Sign OUT of PSN

Step 3: Start GTA IV

Step 4: Play GTA IV (Offline)


ON-LINE (without it freezing seconds after you select to sign in)

Step 5: Start Multiplayer

Step 6: Sign in THROUGH GTA IV

Step 7: CONTINUE TO WALK TILL YOU SEE THE GAME OPTIONS FOR MULTIPLAYER!!!!!<---very important, if you dont it will freeze again)
