    THE WAR OF THE NEXT-GEN CONSOLES............ HAS BEGUN!

  • Wireless controllers only (more on that later)
  • Two memory slots. These are on the console and no longer on the controller

  • Now, about the wireless controllers...The Xbox 360 has revolutionized the way we think of having controllers. The Xbox 360 console does not have any controller ports. Instead, the new wirless technology lets the Xbox 360 detect the wireless controler automatically. It can have up to four of these controllers. But wait? How do you know whos first second third and fourth player? Well, on each controller there is a circular Xbox 360 logo thing that is split up into 4 quadrants that are buttons. Each button represents controller 1, 2, 3, or 4. But I know what you're thinking: "Wireless technology isn't that great for game controllers, the Xbox wireless controllers were glitchy." Well, the Xbox 360's up-to-date wireless technology is supposed to be practically perfect. Isn't that sweet?

    Xbox 360 has a built in Gamer Profile thingy that records your game performance whether you are online or offline. Awsome.

    NEW TITLES: Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, Project Gotham Racing 3, Perfect Dark Zero, Call of Duty 2, Test Drive Unlimited and Gears of War are a few of the Xbox 360's first titles.

    More info is on it's way.....but my hand hurts from typing so much so fast for now......LOOK AT THESE COOL PICTURES OF THE Xbox 360:

  • May 12th -
  • I updated the Gaming Evolution Page with this picture/chart and commentary.

  • April 29th -
  • I added the following avatar to the Avatars page: . In case you don't know, the avatar is of the "health stages" in the original "Doom" from best to worst.

    I also added the Official Half-Life site link the the Links page.

  • April 26th -
  • The Postal2 expansion "Apocolypse Weekend" (seen below) is supposed to be out this month...but Running With Scissor hasn't said anything yet...anyone that played "Postal2" or Postal2: Share the Pain", knows that the expansion is going to be pretty much better (and more messed up) than any other first-person shooter out there.

  • April 20th -
  • May releases are here! Well, actually they're not here, they're to the left of here...
    HIGHLIGHTS:
    (in no particular order)

    25 to Life
    Destroy All Humans
    Grand Theft Auto
    Midnight Club 3: DUB Edition
    Rainbow Six 4
    Ghost Recon 2
    Pariah
    Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith
    Mega Man Anniversary Collection

    25 to Life looks VERY cool along with Destroy All Humans and Pariah. The others also worth buying.

    In other news, there's a new legend of Zelda game coming out (possibly in Fall) for the Gamecube! Guess what?! Nintendo finally decided to make Link look like he did on the N64 again!!! The game also has great graphics and will probably have a great story line like all Legend of Zelda games. Also, Black and White 2 is being developed.

    A new Medal of Honor game is being developed called Medal of Honor: European Assult. Click here for more info. But there's a mistake! On the site it says, "Experience history's most intense battles in the fourth installment of the Medal of Honor series." This is extremely misleading. It's the fourth installment for Xbox and PS2, but it is definately NOT the fourth installment of the Medal of Honor Series. Why? Because there have been many Medal of Honor games for the original Playstation.

    Rockstar Games, the creators of the Grand Theft auto series, hava announced that their next game will be called The Warriors. It's based on a movie that was made sometime in the 70's or early 80's or somthing...I'm not really that sure. Anyway, it looks great (how could any game by Rockstar not) and will be for the PS2 and Xbox. It is set for a release sometime in September.

  • IM BAAACK!

    Sorry for you "like.... 3... visitors" (in PyRo's words while I was gone...look down) but my internet was completely messed up. And by the way, the site address may change soon as we are looking at ways to have free hosting without ads. Updates are on their way...

  • I COMPLETELY FORGOT! There's an Empire Earth 2 Demo that you can download now! Just click here!

  • March 6th -
  • I've started a new Vice City mod on the Faction Mod Projects page. On that page I also put links under the disclaimer so that you can get to the mods you want to get to without having to scroll through the page looking for them. The three skins for the mod are already available on the downloads page and there might be more skins in the future.

    I added this avatar to the avatars page: . If you don't know what HOPE stands for or what the HOPE conference is, look it up because I'm too lazy to tell you! :)

  • March 2nd -
  • Age of Empires III (3) is set for a release sometime in Fall of 2005!!! Goto the Official Age of Empires 3 Site for more info. The game looks awsome and is set in the "New World" (America in the sixteenth to the ninteenth century).

  • March 1st -
  • March Releases are here! Just look under the February releases....

    HERE ARE THE HIGHLIGHTS:
    Doom 3
