Don't Cry

Sorry, but this week and last week have been really busy here at Warlock Cove. Me and Teh Chris started school at the Art Institute of California this week so we've been really busy. It is now much harder for us to film, its really quite sad because we have so much ready to film. Try to bear with us until we figure out how we can work around our school.

PS: However our quality is likely to skyrocket now that I am learning Digital Filmmaking.

No video this week folks!

We are taking a break and thinking a bit about where we want to go from here. There is so much to review, my dearest readers, that you did not receive a video this last week solely because we were, and are, indecisive bastards. Your suggestions are very appreciated and are not likely to be ignored because it takes all the effort out of scooping the next review out of the vast sea of awesome that lays before me.

Another Review

This time its Captain America and the Avengers. Hope you like it.

We decided introductions were in order

So here they are, new review soon quite possibly up by Thursday at the latest.

Ok Enjoy!

The following is a video review of Bucky O'Hare that I made with Teh Chris.

Most Possibly the Best Game Ever

Good, God, Damn! I just played the most hilariously amazing game ever made. That game is Osman. Words just can't properly convey the insanity of this game so I'm going to wait to post an article with more detail until such times as I can show you the sheer amount of awesome packed into this game.

My first real posts

I'm very close to posting something new, I need as much feedback as possible so please give me as much as you think I can carry back from the internetz.

Punchtastic Punch Out

Nostalgia can be a very powerful influence when it comes to picking out a video game. No matter how many times I try to think of a different song, I cannot get the new Punch Out's remixed classics out of my head. It's a good thing it's so damn awesome because I might be going (more) mad by now if it wasn't. Sometimes you can tell just how much time was put into polishing a game into the lustrous gem your playing. This is one of those times.

The whimsical feel to it is as hilarious as it is nostalgic. From the silly cut-scenes, to the ridiculous, themed "stars" above their heads, you can tell a lot of time was spent making this thing as fun as possible. I wont go into too much detail about it so as not to spoil something that will probably have you bursting with laughter when you see it; But when you see a man practice boxing with a bear, hilarity, as it were, will ensue.

One of the things that I really appreciate is that there are several different control schemes. You can use the wiimote (or is it wii-mote?) as an NES controller for some classic play or go all out and use the nun-chuck and wii-mote to punch, and the balance board to dodge. Exercise included at your own risk (and disposition).

The other boxers are so much more fleshed out in this one as well. Every fighter starts the round with a quirky animated cut scene followed by a classic ring side entrance. And every fighter will let off tons of amusing phrases in their native tongue. The immersion just becomes that much more complete when Don Flamenco is teasing you in Spanish just to get you to punch him. Sadly this also means that you will only understand about 25% of the fighters, effectively missing what could be some of the funniest lines in the game.

It's essentially a classic with some revamped graphics , new fighters, and a more immersive control scheme. It may have skipped two consoles but it was well worth the wait.
