Red Dead Redemption and Just Cause 2

Fuck me. That's how I'm going to start out this post. If you're not a videogamer - good for you, you're saving your time/money/braincells/jesus. Very nice. I'm a videogamer. And as a seasoned videogame nerd I'm telling you - THESE TWO GAMES WILL BE THE NIPPLES.
We here at C2D Headquarters are already scheeming on a all night party when Just Cause 2 drops. Next month. I swear. I really really want to write something convincing here to make those who do not care pick up these games - but in actuality - I want these all for myself. To better my chances of picking these up the second they are popped on the shelf, I'm encouraging all of you to forget you saw this post just like you were going to anyway. But if you care - watch the videos below and say it with me. WOW.

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.

Playstation 3 Keypad

These just came out. They seem to be pretty nice, besides being a neat lil keyboard, the whole keyboard pad is a "touchpad", kind of like a touchpad mouse on a laptop.
Could be nice for browsing the webs on the big screen through your ps3, or typing out some message to a fellow videogame nerd about something rather. Its receiving mixed reviews on the internets, but its a must buy for me - i'm really not in the mood for having a keyboard/mouse laying around in my living room. Nice, small, sleek. I like.
