By: Racingfreak92

***CONTAINS MINOR SPOILERS***

In Sam and Max Episode 5: Reality 2.0 you again take control of Sam the talking dog and are joined by your rabbit partner max. You begin the game in your office as always in the 5th episode of 6 in the first season. In Sam and Max you control Sam on a click-based adventure where you journey along the world and interact with it using the mouse. In Reality 2.0 you take on a mission to stop the internet. And to stop it you must travel into the internet. You have a run in with the COPS during the game who want to, surprise surprise, hypnotize the world which is the theme of Season 1. Along with the COPS you are again joined by Sybil the indecisive store owner and Bosco the In-convenience store owner.

Did MS have the first next Gen. system or Did Sony?

PSX

You may not have heard of the PSX, put out by Sony but in 2003 they put out their Sony media center, digital video recorder, and DVD player, and PlayStation 2 video game console. It was released in Japan on 12-13-2003 but ended there due to poor sales. It came with a 160 or a 250 GB hard drive to record TV, home movies, digital photos, or to play PS 2 titles. You were also able to link the PSX to your psp to transfer videos and music. Rumor has it that if you do have this system that it will link up with the PS3. The system is also know as the Sony Cross Media Bar (XMB).

Def Jam ICON at a glance…

The Good

  • Easy to learn how to fight
  • Managing your crew and girls is fun
  • Playing your own music in this game is what its all about
  • Good Story line
  • Graphics are OK

The Bad

  • Achievement points are to far apart
  • It gets to a point where you are fighting the same person over and over
  • Not enough fighting moves
  • No replay value

The Ugly

  • Easy to cheat
  • Stereotyping

In my opinion this game would be a rental not a buy.
If you wan’t the full review you can download XBL Radio ver. 40

Hard to be a FANBOY!

Hello fellow gamers and 360 owners:
I am not one of those podcasters that think they speak for everyone. I usually just do the show and opine during the cast. However, the story below, as interesting as it is, makes me cringe. I could have commented on it. However I have so much more to add. As you know the new “ELITE” version of the 360 is underway, but what does it mean for us? Lets look at how hard it is to be a true FAN of our favorite system:

Shivering Isles on the Marketplace Early

Shivering Isles - $30 Expansion - Out Now!Â

Yes! You heard that right! It was supposed to arrive tomorrow, but made it to the marketplace today. The download will cost you 2,400 Microsoft points ($30) and 1 Gig of space on your harddrive.  Good luck finding an MS Point Card that high.

Can you believe this? A thirty dollar Marketplace download? Let’s hope EA’s not taking notes, ’cause this could be the start of a mess not even Major would want to clean up.

*Note, you must go to all downloads, then Oblivion to find this download. If you go to newly released, it will not show up.
So what are you waiting for? Go get it now!
