    No more Jeff!?

    Hey everybody! I know I haven't been on for a while, and this news was a terrible "welcome back!" gift. I've been usimg GS since 2004, and have come to know the Gamespot family. Of course, it was a sad parting to watch Rich go, but atleast we had notice! Why in the world would Jeff be getting "canned"? He's really been the back-bone at Gamespot, and to see him leave like this really sucks. It's like watching M*A*S*H when Colonel Henry Blake dies, it's heart-breaking. Gamespot certainly won't be the same, not for me atleast. So here's to Jeff........"Good knowin ya".

    Ogre Battle64.......WTF!?

    I recently finnished playing this game today, For those of you that don't know, it's a turn-based RPG for the N64. It had been really great, until the ending. Appearently. the way you play the game affects the ending, and there are several different ones. This game ended with my men kicking me out of the army, and since I wasn't there to lead, the enemy takes over, burns down the cities, and kills all the people. I spent 45 hours for absolutely nothing. 45 hours! Be really careful if you play this game.

    Very Impressive Lineup

    E3 was great this year a number of great games and some really interesting Hard-Ware. First off, Super Mario Galaxy looks great, and probably plays great. So that's definately on my wish list. Bio Shock was very impressive, as was MGS4 and Call of Duty 4. Of course Halo 3 looked great, but I think everybody's beginning to get a little sick of watching, and want some more playtime. Now aside from games, there were the big hardware announcements. The wii zapper looks nice, and should probably play well with most FPS's. Also there was the Wii Wheel. This seemed kind of bland, but when you add Mario Kart for the wii in the mix, it definately gets more interesting. The Wii Fit board was probably the most intuitive. This really gives developers the chance to make more interesting games like Snow-Boarding or Surfing. Even boxing, with the board detecting your motions as you dodge punches from left to right. And of course there was the PSP update. There didn't seem to be much of a difference, but according to the editors, it was considerably lighter, and you now have the option to play on your TV. I'm definately looking to evrything I mentioned and alot I didn't mention. And I hope E3 comes back next year with the same format.
