Be James Bond: Goldeneye & Blood Stone 007 Game Previews

08.26.10 Written by S.Cadet

MGM put the breaks on the next Bond film largely because the company is short on funds. That’s pretty discouraging considering how Daniel Craig was shaping up to be a good Bond since his no BS mentality brought new life into the character. Casino Royale is one of my favorite James Bond films and Quantum of Solace had its moments despite being worse in comparison. Still it’s a shame that MGM is holding up production on the next film since good action flicks, let alone good big budget flicks, are in short supply these days. Read the rest of this entry »

“From Dowwwnntoowwwnn…”

02.07.10 Written by S.Cadet

Cautious optimism came over me when I heard that NBA Jam was making a return for two reasons. One, I didn’t want my childhood memories of the game to get ruined by a potentially sub par product. That’s a fair concern considering recent attempts to revive Sonic (more on that later) and Bionic Commando have had mixed success at best. Two, the game has only been officially announced for the Wii so far. I don’t have one so I’d have to cash in heavy if I want to relive the days when half court dunks and buzzer beater 3′s took precedent over sim basketball.

Thankfully, these screens make me feel like the designers caught the spirit of the old games. If you’re wondering why the players look kinda goofy it’s because the 3D models are attached to 2D images of the players heads. We’ll have to see it in motion to get the full effect. But it’s a novel idea that fits within the series’ wacky sense of humor. Additionally Mark Turmell, one of the original creators behind the classic NBA Jam games, is working as a consultant for this project according to MTV’s Multiplayer blog. This gives me hope that the fun gameplay of the old games will be intact and perhaps we’ll see some humorous joke squads a la Bill and Hillary Clinton (Barack and Michelle?).

There’s no concrete release date yet but the title is supposed to drop later this year. In the meantime you can vote for what rosters you want to see in the final version on NBA Jam’s official site. I’m sure none of them will match the magnificence of LJ & Zo but a lil’ e-democracy never hurt anybody. You know i’ll pencil in DJ Mbenga if LA ever comes up.

“No One’s Leaving Untill I Bowl A 300…”

09.22.09 Written by MZ

Back in March, some cops down in Florida went in for a drug bust and got deterred for over nine hours plying Nintendo Wii.  Unwittingly, they didn’t know the target had security cameras installed in the house. Apparently no one had seen an episode of The Wire. Before I pushed play though, I knew these fools were playing Wii Bowling. Read the rest of this entry »

S. Cadet’s out @ the E3 conference, which meant nothing to me until a few weeks. He just had me filing out bullshit paperwork (it was almost like trying to get into the Pentagon) & submitting it to help him get access. Now I see some of what the fuss was for. Read the rest of this entry »
