Fun'n'Games Vol 7

Yes, I know we are pissing lava over here over the soon to drop Gran Turismo 5, but that doesn't stop us from keeping a finger on the pulse of our other favorite franchise, Need For Speed. A new one is coming out mid-November, which technically is a pretty stupid time frame because everyone who's anyone will be playing GT5 (unless they got a Microsoft desktop aka Xbox, in which case stick to that generic space shooter version 3.5) but I will still pick it up since Hot Pursuit will be a very different beast - a party beast. The more this new NFS is like Burnout Paradise the better, since that game was a keeper and got polished. The multiplayer mode with all the wicked stat keeping got us excited over here at C2D. Fun times ahead! November will be a dangerous month. The demo drops October 26th - full game mid November.

Dirt 2 and video games

Dirt 2 came out this past tuesday. I love racing games, rally especialy, so naturally I picked it up. And? Its awesome. I love it. This might just be the best racing game I've ever had. The feeling of racing from the cockpit/hood camera is unsurpassed. Sense of speed, engine noise, different road textures playing around with the grip... what a great time.
Now of course NFS Shift is dropping next week - and its going to be sweet as well, AND, I might have to pick that one up too. Just doing my part. Then we got Uncharted 2 half way through October - and then GranTurismo 5 is finaly dropping. Busy busy busy.


That of course brings us to the main point. Why does it seem that C2D readers don't play videogames. I mean, 100s of visitors a day, and only 7 voted on the videogame system poll? Pathetic. Do me a favor, go to a videogame store, buy yourself a PS3/Xbox360 (don't bother with the Wii unless you're 11 or are retarded) , and have a god damn blast. Don't forget to pick up a huge 1080p LCD, or it just won't be the same. Go on.
