Maybe I'm an old man, but the CG modeling in this trailer doesn't totally agree with me, and I miss the soundtrack from the original anime! *SIGH*

Don't expect to get too much out of this  trailer, other than an awesome look at how detailed Los Santos (Rockstar's Los Angeles) is. the protagonist is not seen much, but is heard throughout the trailer describing how his dreams have differed wildly from his reality. Some have suspected that it's GTA Vice City's Tommy Vercetti come to fictional Cali, but that's pretty much been debunked.

Enough of that, though. Here's the trailer

Fresh Monday, a fresh episode of the ESH Podcast. This week's show is all games just like last week's... the only difference is that this week's show...

Is Full of Clips!

Massively multiplayer online guru Blizzard has another expansion coming out for World of Warcraft. While the main new feature of the game, the new Pandaren race and continent, looks pretty fresh and exciting, I’m here today to talk about a different part of this package. Blizzard is certainly not shy about including homage here and there to other games, the new pet battle system takes it to the next level. Being a big fan of the Pokémon franchise, and always hoped for an online version of the series, they’ve certainly gotten my attention.

Shaking your tail feather to multiple beats at a time!

Whenever the big video games as art debate is brought up, there are a number games that are mentioned. Now, in one convenient package, you can pick up both of the titles that are always mentioned. Ico & Shadow of the Colossus Collection combines these two PS2 classics, both of which are among my personal favorites, and upscales them to your HD television. Did Team Ico do an admirable job of bringing these iconic titles to high definition, or are they a simple port of the games you played last generation?

Last year's Split/Second was one of the most exciting racing games to come out in years, so it's no surprise that many developers would want to imitate the insanity that Black Rock Studios brought to the racer. Who would've guessed, however, that the MotorStorm series would be one of those to rip a page out of their books? Here we are, then, with MotorStorm: Apocalypse, a racing title that knows how to make players sit on the edge of their seats.

Persona 4 is a GREAT game. The Persona series has grown into one of the best RPG series of all time, and it deserves praise. So what happens when you take that plot and turn it into an animated series? For one thing, you don't get something for everyone.

Our favorite furry bastards have struck a deal to appear on American television within the next couple years.

Over the past few weeks and probably the next few, I have been playing quite a few games that, in actuality, I had already played many times before.  Remakes seem to be all the rage in the video game industry right now, along with every other industry for that matter, and they all tend to offer either polished graphics or new features.  The real question becomes whether or not these games are worth getting.
