Some boxes should never be opened...
In this special 'Sadistic Santa' edition of the Black Panel Podcast, the team discusses the horrid presents they have received for Xmas, including Farming Simulator, Duke Nukem Forever and Legendary.
Looking for great games for the holidays?
In honor of Thanksgiving and real turkeys everywhere that have laid down their lives in the service of your belly, here is a small collection of PC gaming 'turkeys' we've reviewed over the last year to avoid this holiday season.
Blair Herter announces the winner of G-Phoria '09 Game Most Deserving of a Uwe Boll Movie. Nominees include 'Golden Axe: Beast Rider', 'Castlevania Judgment', 'Legendary', 'Onechanbara: Bikini Zombie Slayer' and 'X-Blades'.
NOTHING deserves a Uwe Boll movie. That guy is simply atrocious at everything he does. I can't believe how he can make a move so stupid, I'm not kidding I got sick after watching House of the Dead. It's like he actually wants to fail. A monkey with a camera and 10 bucks can make a better movie than this guy.
"Until the law was changed in 2005, Boll was able to acquire funding thanks to German tax laws that reward investments in film. The law allowed investors in German-owned films to write off 100% of their investment as a tax deduction; it also allowed them to invest borrowed money and write off any fees associated with the loan. The investor was then only required to pay taxes on the profits made by the movie; if the movie loses money, the investor got a tax writeoff."
And in his own words, "Maybe you know it but it's not so easy to finance movies in total. And the reason I am able to do these kind of movies is I have a tax shelter fund in Germany, and if you invest in a movie in Germany you get basically fifty percent back from the Government."
He basically makes money even if its crap, which all of them have been.
I've already seen an Onechanbara movie. Made in Japan and campy as hell but I enjoyed it thou :)
What a ridiculous name for a game.
talk about fricken apocalypse.
My Girlfriend has a legendary box =P
no seriously though this looks to have potential.
Hell no... More a FPS... I was really hoping this game to have another approach, maybe something more like the old PS One survival horrors/action or whatever.
I'm getting sick on the flood of FPS, I will not be surprised if FF XII Versus is some online multiplayer FPS...
I don't know if this is thanks to X360. Many people believe that those Xbox owners was just american players which, even if it's not the real case, are believed to be all about FPS and weapons and violence - you get the stereotype - not criticizing, I had a original Xbox myself, but after the 360 take on market, I don't know if publishers are persuing games that appeal to this bilieved old Xbox owners, and the devs fever with the 360 that is easy to programm, all we have is tons of FPS now, there is some even on the Wii...
Jericho, The Darkness and now L:TB, all of then, if in another time, would be classical survival horrors, but all of then come as FPS Horror... Not saying this is something new, FPS and Horror genre always walked together, even Walfstein was somewhat frightening, we have one of the best PC FPS as a Horror game also, FEAR...
Still, on the consoles, I didn't see that much FPS back on PS2, for sure it have many FPS, but not in that percentual. maybe it's just that consoles (at least X360 and PS3) are now more PC-like, now any kind of game you can think, they can make it a FPS, and that would be a niche coming, but still I don't like it.
Just waiting to a Mario played in first person camera
he opened the box!
doesn't he know that some boxes should NEVER be opened??
