Todd Howard Skyrim Q&A at GameInformer.com

Today Game informer did a podcast with Todd Howard to get a few of our biggest questions answered. One or two of some of my personal questions was not answered but they certainly cleared up a lot of pressing ones in great detail making it just that much harder to wait for this game. But one of them that I seemed worried about was that by how they said it that there may be a limited amount of quests, but there will be a lot of them, like ALOT more than either of the first two, which is actually really good, i would be satisfied with just that answer. And the second concern is just HOW fast do you level? I really thought that it should be slower since if they do decide to make it very scaled like on fallout and oblivion then at least it would be so bad to a point where 99 of the creatures you run into at lvl 3 are imps then after lvl 7 imps are almost non existent and your fighting timber wolves and bears, it justs changes not so abruptly.

Inside Skyrim's Menu System Overhaul - For the good or the better

Skyrim keeps looking better and better. Apple fused with medieval? This has gotta be awesome. Full 3d item icons with the ability to rotate and zoom in, completely interactive interface with infinite object bookmark capability. The wait gets harder.

Certainly is a bad-ass case for a bad-ass game, the wait gets harder and harder.

Kingdom Hearts super mini review, plus a look at Disney Epic Mickey

It has been a while since I heard anything about that age old, cartoon icon Mickey Mouse. Not since I last played Kingdom Hearts back in 2006, which was an AWESOME game considering it was the the most odd fusion of two totally different art styles, characters, world, and setting ever thought of in human history. But regardless of being an odd mix of Square Enix and Disney it was a beautiful story matched with even a reasonable explanation on why those two worlds clashed. It held some of my most memorable experiences in my life of gaming and held some amazing charm. Its sequel didn't give me the same "wow" feeling when I beat the game but was just as good with the addition of a greatly improved combat system.

So now on to Disney Epic Mickey.
In Disney Epic Mickey, Mickey is the star of the show and apparently caused some trouble in the dumpster of the cartoon world known as Wasteland. So then after getting kidnapped by some blob thing he is forced to fix what he unknowingly screwed up. It looks interesting enough and if only I had a Wii I would pick it up. Check out the Review at IGN and see what you think of it>>>

First Legend of Zelda dungeon re-created and THE PSP2!!

Wow, the creative possibilities of Little big planet 2 get more and more in depth the more I read about it. Im VERY close to going to the store and picking up a copy of the game myself. I mean look at this>>>>

First Zelda Dungeon Faithfully Recreated In LittleBigPlanet 2 - News - www.GameInformer.com

It took just a WEEK for a determined and seemingly talented creator to make a NEAR PERFECT copy of the first dungeon in the first legend of zelda game. Go read about it to find out more.


In other more awesome news, Sony finally decided to release details about the PSP2 codenamed NGP. I knew we wasn't far off from a second PSP Console but with how much the old psp could do this may be one hell of a handheld and will DEFIANTLY make some healthy competition with Nintendo's 3DS.

Here is the story at IGN.com>>>>

HA finally Black Op's dirty bugs and glitches will get noticed

When I first played Black Ops I was severely disappointed. I was all hyped up about Black Ops as everyone else was, but to me it seems like a downgrade from MW 2 besides remote control trucks. I always thought Treyarch was always just pumping out EXTREMELY repetitive games and it wasn't until COD 4: MW that they started to get allot of real attention. Which was still basically the same as the rest except it had better graphics and more smoother and immersive game-play.

But all in all I liked to play COD during them moments I want to take a breather from games with more "personality" and NEVER bought a game until it dropped to 30 bucks, at least until MW 2 where they was decent enough to at least wait until the price first dropped. But I felt swagged with Black Ops as a means to fruit off of the success of their past 2 games. Its buggyness and glitchy game-play is finally going to get the formal attention it deserves, and lets hope that activision DON'T win that case. It was a cheap move to bag money from us poor game folk by releasing a game that wasn't finished or polished enough but had enough hype built up by its older brothers to gain immediate sales.
