DR 2: Case Zero, Tekken 6, & Zeno Clash (Should I get it?)
First of all I would just like to say that I want the above song to be the theme song of my life. I want it to play everywhere I go just so people know not to mess with me. And if they do there's a good chance that I'm going to throw a garbage can at them.
Dead Rising 2: Case Zero
Is it a demo or is it a full fledged downloadable title? Who cares, it's fucking fun! On Friday night I had a chance to sit down with the prequel to Capcom's upcoming Dead Rising 2 and after 6 hours of straight play I think it's safe to say that I got my moneys worth. It's 400 Microsoft Points and if it doesn't sell you on DR2 at the very least you're going to have a fun little sandbox to screw around in.
The only thing I'm worried about is that Case Zero might actually be too good. It's a good chunk of gameplay and it might actually be enough for people that are still undecided about picking up the sequel. It personally made me want it more but I can see both sides here.
Tekken 6
I don't really know what to say about Tekken 6. I picked it up on sale last week for $10 and even though I've put about 10 hours into it - I think it's total shit. The fighting engine is weak, the scenario mode is garbage, and the final boss is absolutely horrible. I'm done with it and while I'd like to go back and get the 4 achievements that I'm missing I don't really see myself doing that anytime soon.
Zeno Clash
Lastly is Zeno Clash. I actually never bought Zeno Clash but I did play the demo on Xbox Live. The demo didn't really sit all that well with me but I've done a little more research on the game and I think it could really pick up after getting used to it. What do you think Destructoid? Should I pick up Zeno Clash: Ultimate Edition on Xbox Live or not? I have until tomorrow to decide as it's on sale right now for 800 MS Points. Hurry and pour on the peer pressure or peer... ummm depressurization?

Hey Destructoid!
My name is Kim Fidler, I'm Canadian, and I've been playing video games for over 25 years. Yes, you can calculate that and you'll probably realize that I'm kind of old. Not REALLY old but old enough to have 1 or 2 gray hairs (around 10 at last count). I'm 30 and even though I should be bogged down by all of the bullshit that comes with being an adult, I still love games and the gaming industry.
I don't really know what it is about games that I like so much but I think it has a lot to do with the community that surrounds them. I'm not talking about the fanboy jerk offs that populate every single gaming website, but the great people that keep this hobby a viable way to spend your free time. Take a look around at all of the people making community blogs on Destructoid and I can guarantee that every single one of those people is a great person in their own distinct way. They all have something to say and while you might not always agree with it, we as gamers are always willing to listen to different opinions.
That is why I have decided to start a blog on Destructoid. Over the past decade I have written for several gaming websites but it's come to that point in my life where I no longer want to be a member of the gaming press. It's a cool job but I have a career that I absolutely love and, well let's face it, I can't hang with all of the big names in the gaming media. I'm looking at you Jim "Big Comfort" Sterling.
So that's me. I'm a pretty normal guy that probably likes a lot of the same things that you do. I have a shaved head because it makes me look tough and I run about 25 kms a week. That's about it. Thanks for visiting my blog!
