Guy Proposes To His Girlfriend Using Little Big Planet; I throw up a little in my mouth.
MrSadistic | 10:31 AM on 10.12.2008 40 comments


With the open beta slowly coming to a close, gamers have seen plenty of creative user levels from everyone's favorite calculator simulator, Little Big Planet. Now, it seems one creative gamer decided to step it up a notch.



Instead of the ol' boring tradition of getting down on one knee and proposing in real life, Jed05 decided to craft a level in Little Big Planet entirely dedicated to proposing to his girlfriend. Describing why he chose Little Big Planet as his platform, Jed05 stated:

"I've been wanting to do something creative to ask her to marry me, and what a better way than Little Big Planet! I know the last part of the level may not be that exciting, but I have a fiancee now!"

How sweet. Oh sure, the concept of using a video game to propose to someone isn't entirely new, but I applaud the man for putting in the time to create the level.

If you're curious to try the level out yourself (for some God-forsaken reason), it's listed as "Love and Marriage" from user "DimmuJed".

Now excuse me, I have to throw up.

Brett Ratner Wants to Direct "Guitar Hero" Movie; WHAT
MrSadistic | 11:58 PM on 08.28.2008 18 comments





Oh Brett Ratner.

Oh you poor, poor man.

When I was a naive little boy, I thought the first two Rush Hour movies were pretty hilarious. After doing a little growing up (read: none), and watching that god-awful movie, X-Men: The Last Stand, I realized how horribly bad your movies really were. Now comes news of Mr. Ratner wanting people to suffer even more by the hands of his man-made abortions:

During an interview over at MTV Multiplayer, discussing his "Best Director" Video Music Awards nomiation for his work on a Miley Cyrus video (what), Ratner states that he wants to direct a Guitar Hero movie.

No I shit you not.

"I love Guitar Hero and I think it’s a part of pop culture. I would love to do a Guitar Hero movie, if Activision would ever let me. I’m trying to convince them, but why would you have a movie screw up such a huge franchise? Not that I would make a bad movie. So that would be cool, to do a Guitar Hero movie."

Yes, because every movie Brett Ratner has touched is pure gold.

Ratner continues, describing the plot:

"It could be about a kid from a small town who dreams of being a rock star and he wins the Guitar Hero competition. One of these dreams-[come-true] kind of concepts."

I kept reading over the article hoping that it was some sort of joke gone horribly, horribly wrong. I don't know what's worst: the fact he actually wants to make a Guitar Hero movie, or the fact the plot sounds awfully familiar.

Of course nothing is set in stone at this point and it's not like Activision to whore out the Guitar Hero franchise, right? RIGHT?!

Clinton vs. Obama 'Smackdown' Video makes me throw up a little in my mouth.
MrSadistic | 4:16 PM on 04.21.2008 28 comments


With the Pennsylvania primary set for tomorrow, WWE and THQ have paired up in order to show what Clinton's and Obama's "wrasslin'" ring entrances would look like using Smackdown vs. Raw '08.


SmackDown vs Raw 08 `Clinton vs Obama` Trailer

While it does not show any actual in-ring action, it does drive one to the point of tears after watching the abominable Hilary Clinton entrance. What's even more depressing is that WWE has actually sent out invitations to both Obama and Clinton for them to appear on their Monday Night Raw show in order to "settle the Democratic nomination process in the ring".

Sen. Hilary Clinton, Barack Obama, and John McCain will each deliver a taped message to the WWE audience on tonight's episode of Raw.

Yeah, um.. brb crying.

New DLC Available For Unreal Tournament III.
MrSadistic | 12:54 PM on 03.27.2008 23 comments


After last week's surprise release for the Unreal Tournament III patch, it seems Epic has outdone themselves once again this week.



As of today, new DLC for Unreal Tournament III is out for both the PC and Playstation 3. Did I mention that it is free?

For further details on this awesome news, check out the press release:

Epic and Midway Announce Unreal Tournament 3 PC Has Gone Gold

PlayStation 3 and PC Gamers Can Get Their Frag On With Three New Maps for Unreal Tournament 3

Today, Midway and Epic Games announce that downloadable content for the award-winning first-person shooter, Unreal Tournament 3, is now available for PlayStation 3 and PC. The downloadable content consists of three deadly arenas: Morbias, Facing Worlds and Searchlight. PC users can find the new content at www.unrealtournament3.com, while PS3 users can download it directly from the PlayStation Network.

These downloads, which are free to all owners of Unreal Tournament 3, mark the latest achievement in providing the gaming community with unrivaled mods and superior experiences through the most recent installment in the Unreal Tournament franchise. While Unreal Tournament 3 shipped with 40 maps, and hundreds of user-created mods have been published since the game’s release, Midway and Epic are committed to providing fans with even more official content to further extend enjoyment of the game.

Morbias is the deathmatch arena that started it all, perfectly suited for anything from small intense duels to chaotic free-for-all matches. The Unreal Tournament classic, Facing Worlds was one of the most played maps in gaming history. This beloved sniper map makes its return alongside an intricate new capture the flag map, Searchlight, designed for both z-axis rooftop runs and strategic indoor gameplay. Returning classics and fresh new designs let you experience Unreal gaming like never before.

Unreal Tournament 3 is rated “M” for mature by the ESRB.



A remake of Facing Worlds? Oh fuck yes!

I'm interested in the new Capture The Flag map, Searchlight. From the way they explain it, it sounds pretty spiffy. It's been a long time since I've played Morbias. I just hope it's a faithful translation, along with the epic map that is Facing Worlds.

If you cannot find the new maps on PSN right now just remember that the maps will most likely be live when the Playstation Store is updated later tonight.

New Trailer for the Warhawk 1.3 Update; the word "pimp" comes to mind.
MrSadistic | 3:48 PM on 03.24.2008 24 comments


With the FREE update of Warhawk set to hit next week, Sony has released a trailer showing off the new additions to the game.



As you can see, the Bio-Reactor Field Generator & Mechanic's Field Wrench are shown off in the trailer. The Bio-Reactive Field Generator acts like a sort of "Halo 3 field generator", but it actually heals your allies and is able to kill your enemies. The field wrench is reminiscent of the Engineer's wrench in Team Fortress 2, in that it is able to not only repair your vehicle but is also able to harm an enemy's vehicle as well. Also mentioned in the trailer are the various fan-made custom paint jobs and insignias that will be incorporated into the patch.

While the idea of finally being able to repair vehicles during mid-fight has finally come true, I guess we'll have to see if it's a Godsend or just another stab in the face (from shipero... bastard)... and just in time for "Wednesday Night Warcawks" to boot.

Look for the patch to hit next week, April 2nd.
