The Last of Us

Redband trailer for the game, due to language/violence. "Everything we’ve seen from The Last of Us, the new game from Uncharted makers Naughty Dog, has been exceptionally cinematic, and so it makes perfect sense to release a movie-like red band trailer for the game. And better yet, the trailer is so...

I might have a post/trailers about the Defiance series in the TV forum, if you want to know more. The ga...

Re: Does anyone still play WoW?

There's an official trailer for patch 5.2:

The Walking Dead

Are any of you playing this? It seems to have very good reviews. It's not anything I can play, as I don't have a console that will play it, but I was wondering who liked it. They had offered Episode One for free, from Christmas to New Year's, but I just saw that today, and the offer is over.

It also sounds like most of the voices are the originals from the films. One thing I have noticed--it's fucking making me seasick :( I guess it's the m...

Re: How Do You Recharge Your Xbox 360 Controller ?

I bought an Eneloop charger and battery kit. It came with a bunch of AA, AAAs, and adapters to turn those batteries into Cs and Ds. Excellent ratings on Amazon, versus other brands. I use them in the wireless controller as well as the wireless bar for the Wii.

Lego LotR

They have a demo of the game out. I played it last night. It's the Helm's Deep segment, although I believe it's somewhat truncated. Long cutscenes, and sounds like the dialogue may be the original actors, but they did voiceovers especially for the game.

Re: Borderlands 2

There had been so many places that were pre-selling what seems to be different packages or versions of this--different bells and whistles that come with the game, I guess, including giftcards, etc. Not my kind of game, but the vids and stuff look good.
