Iron Man 2: The Game

Movie games have a stigmata of being... well... down right horrible. This doesn't help that stereotype. Here's Kotaku's review of Iron Man 2, The Video Game (the movie wasn't half bad!)

A Cataclysm only the World of Warcraft could survive.

When you've got all your characters to level 80, got the top tier gear, and running through instances has lost it's fun, you are one sad little nerd. But fear not! World of War is on the case with a new expansion back on the way. Kotaku has all the information.

Doane College's Relay for Life

You might be wondering, "what does Relay have to do with you blog, Mr. Benkelmonkey?" And to that I answer, video game fundraisers. Going along with the theme "Crusin' for a Cure" The Doane Players team has "Cruisin' USA" the Nintendo 64 game in their camp site while Alpha Pi Epsilon has an Xbox 360 set up and playing Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and other games.

Sprite Comic for the Win!

What a weekend! It's been a long time to be away from the internet, but I'm back.

Something video game related I like to check on is the this webcomic done by Brian Clevinger called 8-bit Theatre. It follows (loosely) the story of Final Fantasy 1 and adds in clever and not so clever shenanigans to get all the nerds a-laughin'. He's actually finished the story, it only took him around 10 years I believe. Enjoy!

Nerd Threads... the non-blog kind!

Square Enix and their constantly changing platforms

They started out on Nintendo, then moved to Playstation... then to Xbox 360... now the Iphone? Wow Square Enix, pick a platform and stick with it. Oh well, maybe they're just spreading the love. This is their new Iphone game Chaos Rings.

Time for me to be buying an Xbox 360!

Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls, I have finally finished all the Final Fantasies I can play on my Playstation 2. It is time to move on to the big new and exciting Final Fantasy 13 on the Xbox 360. One more game, just one more before the big review is ready. I know the wait is difficult (mostly on me) but it is almost time!
