Video Review of 'Brave Arms'

Hi everybody, this one is a little behind.  I've been crazy busy lately.  I created this quick video review a few weeks ago.  And the folks at 3G Studio's have been absolutely fantastic.  I wanted to throw this video review up for 'Brave Arms' which can be found on Facebook. 'Brave Arms' is technically the first, first-person-shooter to make an appearance on Facebook.  It plays a lot like the Quake Live site that rolled out sometime back.  Do yourself a favor, if...

Relax Retro Gamers! GOG.com has returned to us!

Okay, shortly after I posted my video review of 'Duke Nukem: Project Manhattan' and pointed everybody to the Good Old Games website (http://www.gog.com). They yanked the site offline.  Many a blog post and twitter tweet went out that day speculating GOG was done and no more. But alas!  They have returned.  Apparently, they were rolling out the new version of their site.  Claiming that until this, their site was simply in Beta.  Now they are back and better than ever.  So...

That's right, I now have the capability to do video reviews for games and software.  A few small bugs are being worked out (occasional crackling sound from Mic).  But otherwise, look for more coming soon!  In the meantime check out my quick review of 'Duke Nukem: Manhattan Project'.  I made this while in my retro kick.  So check it out.

Well, after snooping around a little bit.  I have found out that one of my better liked game developer/publisher has gone the way of the wind.  Out, it looks like.  Acclaim has been developer/publisher of many great titles, mostly from years gone past.  Titles include:  'Armorines: Project Swarm' for the N64  'Batman Forever' for the SNES, Sega, and Gameboy Crazy Taxi The Dave Mirra BMX games Burnout and Burnout 2 Forsaken Furr Fighters Mortal Kombat and Mortal Kombat...

Linux Action Show! -Greatest Linux Podcast of All-Time!

Whenever I stumble onto a site or program I think other people might like or think may be worthwhile to mention, I will make a post about it.  Well, today that has happened once again.  I have just recently stumbled upon a great Linux Podcast.  I have tried out several podcasts in the past about Linux, but I have never found one that has been able to capture my attention as much as 'The Linux Action Show!' does.  I have been listening to episodes from the last couple of months...

Ladies and Gentlemen, Please Welcome Back...Duke Nukem!

Ok, I couldn't even begin to fathom the possibilities that this was true.  Even after reading it on multiple, reputable gaming websites.  For years it has been the running joke within the gaming world: 'Duke Nukem Forever'.  In 1996, gamers got their taste of the greatness that was Duke Nukem.  Everything about Duke's journey to a first person shooter was awesome.  The graphics, the multiplayer, the story, and who can forget some of Duke's classic lines: 'Come get some!',...

Unreal 3 Engine Makes Debut on Apple's iDevices!

Been pretty busy as of late, so I have some catching up to do.  Last week an app by the name of 'Epic Citadel' arrived on Apple's App Store.  No big surprise, new apps show up all the time.  But two things picked my interest: 1- the name of 'Epic' being included in the title and 2- it runs off of the Unreal 3 Engine. I downloaded it on the iPad right away.  And I must say, that I was immediately blown away.  For some time there has been rumor and speculation that the Unreal...
