TANKs BLOG : tuesday gaming news

is it cyrsis or crysis?

not to nitpick but it made me double take, you list Gamestop as giving out the beta tickets, but link Gamespot :) I was think ooh cool, i missed the gamespot one, i can get in on the gamestop one.

That guy bitchin' about the release schedule for a BETA should be lynched. Get a life, get a clue ... and count yourself lucky to play the game prior to release at all. o_O

Tank great news caster. I enjoyed how Nintendo is the only one making money off of the next gen consoles that are out right now.

No tank sightings in 9 days? Everything OK?

as always, thanks for the scoops. The Bungie news is worrying. If Bungie leaves microsoft, how will it affect Halo 3 now, and in the future with patches and new content?

Word is that Microsoft would retain ownership of Halo. So it would fall under MGS to work on future halo games and additions to this one. MGS is a good studio, I'm not too worried over what will happen to halo.

Thanks for the Turok Information

Ya i would imagine they're between 1 and 2 gig each at least.\r

Thanks Tank..\r I forwarded the info for the Old Spice Challange to my clan & hopefully we can get something going..\r \r Again, thanks for the news. -Jay

800 pts for sensible soccer? WTF!

I love your gaming news links! Great way for me to stay in the loop.

I'm going to D/L the Turok Demo now.

ms is going to really piss me off if they launch another council this year.\r really piss me off, at 400 bucks a pop there not exactly super affordable and to kick out another one so soon\r when the 360 still has potential would make me angryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

DAMMIT - you killed the chick blog streak

Ya i had to add a male perspective. But it was either going to be Me or Soup :)\r \r

Maybe 2old2play should do a poll on xbox 360 failures

I'm not sure but i think someone did post a poll thread about 360 failures.

A dating site for gamers..... two women in the United States..... The rest are married?LOL!!!!!

when is Bionic Commando on Arcade coming out?

Bionic Commando is still in development but they're getting close. Last i read they were putting the 'finishing touches' on it.

GTA4 arriving at some stores???

You fail at linking (psst, the GTA4 arriving link).\r \r I almost feel like I am your personal Link Nazi :o)

yeah the GTA link is the same as the one above it

gh4 better have campaign coop online, thats what we really want, that and more content on a regular basis.\r if they dont want the game to get stale they need regular content like rb. \r im wondering if gh aerosmith will come with a guitar, cause i need one.

By the time Sony comes out with Home, we will be playing Xbox 1080

GTA 4 story link has been fixed :)\r \r

I like the details about the sequal to Viva pinata. thanks and wonder what LIPS means.

I'm hoping 'Lips' is going to be some new adults only gaming interface :lol:

Fable 2 really looks like its turning out to be serious masterpiece. IMO.\r REALLY looking forward to that one.

So let me get this straight.... there is a 90 minute cut scene?!?!?!?!

ninja gaiden 2 looks like it went the way of a god of war and heavinly sword which i like, of course ill have to play the demo to see if i like it, but it looks pretty decent. \r as for guitar hero metallica im kinda dissapointed, i wish they would just make guitar hero 4 with all the songs we want instead of making these side games.\r personally i think they should wait till they see if the aerosmith game will bust or not before making other games dedicated to one band. i mean id prefer to put in one game that has all the song i want to play as opposed to 4 or 5.\r and i really wish they would allow us to play previous content for the gh series on the new games.\r like all the songs i bought for gh2 , it would be awesome if i could play them in gh3 if i wanted to. \r

I'm with you C, i think it's retarded that the need to make specific band editions of GH3. Although the Aerosmith one is suppose to be more like GH3.5 , the've done a lot of improvements but do people want to have to re-buy GH every time just to get band specific songs? I think there's something shady going on behind closed doors with that stuff.\r \r

exactly, i mean its not cheap by any means. \r the only reason im buying the aerosmith one is because i want a les paul, i figure this way i get a les paul and a game. im undecided though if im ready to drop 180 on gh4. \r i may just buy the game like i did for rb and play the guitar parts lol

when i saw shots of halo wars the other day it looks like warcraft but with halo stuff, is this a correct assumption?

It's an FPS so ya in that sense it's like Warcraft.\r \r

Sorry i ment to say it's an RTS (Realtime Strategy) like Warcraft so they share the same genre. \r \r Top down, mine resource to build an army and conquer the land.

the TRUTH BEHIND THE XBOX360 DESIGN FLAW link not working Tank...\r

The link worked ok for me. I changed it now to link to the hardware forums post here on 2o2p which should work for everyone. And if not, just go to the Hardware forums.\r \r

very interesting, i used to play warcraft for the pc years ago, im seriously thinking of snagging halo wars.\r although im not sure how long my attention span will hold up.

Thank you seems like i get home to down load the batman. Oh yeah and 1up did a COD 5 preview as well\r \r http://www.1up.com/do/previewPage?cId=3168366

a suit case 360 lmfao

man, I can't wait for Fallout 3

I like this round up today. A lot of good information on A-List titles.

GOW2 is just sick, thats the only game im looking forward to this yr. is that sad?

OH dude, really? I've got so many in oct/nov that i've already pre-ordered them and started paying them down.\r \r In OCT i've got Fable 2, Fallout 2, Ghostbusters and EndWar. In Nov i've got Gears 2, COD5 and Left 4 Dead.\r \r I can't buy any new games between now and then because that's f'n 420 bucks !!!!!! Besides the money factor there's the time factor. I'm not gonna need to buy another game until Oct 09 !

bionic FTW.\r \r \r Tank don't you mean Fallout 3? No banjo or viva on your list? :(

Umm definitly NO on Viva, i h-A-T-E-D the first one. If you look at my gamer profile you'll see it's one of the few games i bailed on i liked it that much.\r \r Banjo i'm also not into and although it looks interesting, it's not going to make my list due to the other AAA top shelf games i already can't afford.\r \r

Those custom boxes are sweet!

I really like the gears box....

Dude. That's a lot of news. Thanks for the games last night BTW! :D

I Like the rumor and with that price cut I can possible snake one pretty sooner than later.

Nice find's on the STFU, but I think people are not really giving this one a fighting chance. I would at least say 8 to 8.7 on this game. MP should not be that big of a factor.

Teh boss fights sound like they suck too

its just another stupid action'y 3rd person game. who cares.

Wish they would reveal all the other swag on the Collectors edition swag for James Bond.

AC/DC DLC in October...\r \r JESUS FUCKING CHRIST! Will the Gods please stop raping my wallet!!!!!!!

The Halo MMO shots look like WOW UI and skin mods. Not sure I'm buying it.

More Halo MMO assets.\r \r http://www.flickr.com/photos/30784486@N04/

We are getting 7 new maps for Halo 3? Could it be true!?!?!?

Meh, i don't care.... i just care about the 500 more achievements :lol:

Hey, is there anything new on GOW 2?

Let me see what i can find .....
