About Me

Just a guy who loves to talk video games a lot. I try to be funny and fail a lot, but I swear I'm worth having around.



I'm an older gamer (read:30) and I like to look back on all the good (and bad) that I played through in the before time.

I don't game as much thanks to my 2yr old daughter, but I do keep up on the latest things. As far as she's concerned, well she likes to hit the buttons a lot, which means she could win a few rounds of DOA.

Apparently leaked from the upcoming X360 UK Magazine, this apparently has now been confirmed. You can view the whole article over at 360.kombo.com, but some of the highlights are:

Party Matchmaking - YAY

MP upped to 5 on 5 - I like this, one more player without overcrowding

New wingman mode where five teams of two take each other on - Just sounds frantic as hell

Some tweaks to assassination now named Guardian where the other team cannot respawn once the team leader is killed - I vote yay on this

CAPTURE THE MEATFLAG - This just sounds fun. One player is basically overpowered and is the flag. Both teams try to take him down then carry his dead body back to their spawn. However if the flag is shot too much (?) then he regens and can start killing again.

Awesome Awesome Awesome. Your thoughts?



Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

Sounds good. I want a little bit more info though before I'm sold.

Yay CronosBlade!

Those sound really neat.
I image Wingman is going to be insanely brutal.

Capture the meatflag sounds interesting. I'm glad they finally got party matchmaking too.

Wordd.
I will actually play the MP this time around. Hopefully that means I'll actually get good at it also.

Capture the Meatflag sounds really fun. Adds a whole new element to CTF. I was reading that article and it said that if the MEATFLAG is shot enough, he'll come back alive and go Rambo on everyone around them

im fucking pumped about it. However, any news if they're doing away with the onesided hosting?

Meatflag sounds pretty cool. I imagine when one team starts dragging the body back, the other team can just unload on the body instead of the opposing team and then watch him go berserk on them. could be interesting.
