Whatcha Playin’ (NOV 7th)

Sometimes, a game comes around that totally engulfs your free time, spins in your head all day, and annoys the hell out of your girlfriend. DJ Hero is just that game, and MAN am I having a blast with it! I used to play on the ol’ wheels of steel back in the day, and this has completely given me the itch to play again. Forza 3 is temporarily on the shelf folks, and the DJ is in the hizzouse! Oh yea, some Left For Dead 2 co-op action will also be had in between sets…and some sucking up to my better half of course.

Demo pick of the week: Has to be LFD 2. Co-op zombie smashing with frying pans FTW!

This weekend is going to be split up between me continuing my quest to unlock all the songs in DJ Hero (yes, it’s been a week and I haven’t done so yet), and also continuing to unlock all the characters and ending cinemas in Tekken 6. Other than that, the MAG private beta ends this weekend so I’m planning to put some final shots in before it closes and the public beta subsequently opens. I also received my review copy of Jak and Daxter: The Lost Frontier and have already been playing the first couple levels and am pleasantly surprised since the last time I played it was at Fan Expo 2009 where I was not very intrigued.

Demo pick of the week: Bucking the trend this week, I also got early access (for Canadians at least) to the God of War 3 E3 demo that will be available if you buy the God of War Collection or District 9 Blu-Ray or immediately if you pre-order the GOW3 Ultimate edition (just not in Canada yet).

This weekend I’ll jump into the House of the Dead: Overkill Director’s Cut (the section I just unlocked) on the Wii and then get back to spinnin’ on DJ HERO. Our very own ZOLI (former DJ of 15 yrs) and myself (former DJ on TV) will continue are DJ HERO acheivement competition we’ve started. Z- dog currently leads…but he’s gotta sleep sometime! Giving my wrist a break from all the scatchin’, more Smackdown vs Raw 2010 will be in the mix. James S.
Demo pick of the week: Left 4 Dead 2! I missed the whole experience the first time around, but after checking it out at X’09 -Count me in! Using frying pan is so satisfying. CLANG!

This week has been an eventful one for me. First of all, I’m enjoying the Grand Theft Auto series for the first time. I used to get bored after half an hour of killing rampages, but the two expansions to GTA4 (which I will be reviewing shortly) have pleasantly surprised me and held my attention for the last week. I also got to try DJ Hero, which is a lot of fun but I doubt I’ll actually buy it. Finally, I’m still chipping away at 100% completion for KH 358/2 days during my travel time, which is currently diminished because of all the November assignments I have to do for school. Mike D.
Demo pick of the week: (big surprise) Left 4 Dead 2! The first one was pretty fun, and I’m hoping the developers can match the mayhem of the original.
