About Me

I have been a gamer since I had been able to hold the controller of my Father's Atari 2006, way too many years ago. From this console imprinting I have grown steadily as a Computer Gamer passing through Sinclair ZX Spectrum, C64 and most importantly the Amiga 500 (best system ever), where my love for games was fully realized, thanks in most part to Secret of Monkey Island.

After the A500 sadly became too obsolete I switched to PC, in a time where there were no 3D Graphics cards, CDs were a curious novelty and Adventure Games and RPG were popular as nowadays are FPS and RTS games. I have been a faithful PC gamer ever since, and while I'm ready to concede that PC gaming is steadily declining (unreasonable rush for expensive hardware and easy piracy the major culprits) I still find PC games more complex and entertaining than its console counterparts.

Still there are some Console games that I like as well, I have a PS2 (mostly for FFs and team ICO games) and will probably switch to a next-gen console soon (when GTA4 comes out probably) . I'm still undecided though : PS3 (Squaresoft and Metal Gear) or Xbox360 (Bioware and Bethesda) ? Time will tell ...

Sam and Max Season 2, Episode 3 review Kurtz | 12:22 PM on 02.23.2008 1 comments

No Brainer I will make this short and sweet, if you like the series so far then you will not be disappointed. I think this is the best episode of the season so far, on par with the best ones of the first (4 and 5). This time Sam and Max will have to stop an invasion of German uber-cool emo Zombies. Instead of recycling the same characters again (no Soda Pops this time, finally, and even Bosco has been given a deserved break) Telltale brought back some of the most compelling ones from the last season : you'll shoot another episode of "Midtown Cowboys" and will have to face Agent Superball again. I believe the developers are being successful in creating a serial cartoon-like universe, much like in the Simpson or South Park. The puzzles are getting better and better, and this time the episode even feels longer than usual... pop-culture references abound as always, with my favorites being the famous "Frau Bruckner!!!" one from Frankenstein Junior, and the various punches at the Survival Horror genre. If you have Gametap then you have probably already played it, if not it's still well worth the price of admission. Attached photos:
