Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon. Good god I can’t wait for this game to release already… Far Cry 3 was one of my favorite games of 2012 (just behind Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning and Borderlands 2) and when I caught wind of a downloadable offshoot I was excited for some more Far Cry goodness. Then I started seeing that it was being modeled after something shit directly out of the [...]

I was a huge fan of Sacred 2 when it launched on the Xbox 360 and I wasted many hours of my life on that game. News of a Sacred 3 had me excited for some more top down action/RPG goodness. When I heard that there would be a side scrolling hack-and-slash/beat-em-up game in the meantime by the name of Sacred Citadel, I was both quite confused as well as [...]

With the start of April comes Microsoft’s next attempt at making the Xbox Live Rewards program worthwhile. I must say, I like the idea of this offering more than some of their past ideas. When you go to the 7/11 on the corner for your morning coffee and scratch-off tickets, odds are you are getting every 6th coffee on the house. People love punchcards because people love free stuff. Well, [...]

Today marks the announcement of the final Rock Band DLC release set for April 2nd on the PS3, Xbox 360, and Wii. It’s been no surprise for over a week now that the final song is “American Pie” from Don McLean, which seems like a wonderful finale song for a game I’ve held near and dear to my heart for so long. The pricing is nothing new, so I’m not [...]

Friday night means it’s time for a new episode of The SML VaultCast for you to waste your time listening to! Episode 7: Boge vs. Wild is like a mashup of two episodes. One episode is a Dummy Run about Boge playing the Xbox 360 all time classic Man vs. Wild starring Bear Grylls and the other episode is a nice discussion on preorder bonuses, Limited Edition games and consoles, and [...]

We’re coming up to the end of things here and while I am depressed beyond belief that Rock Band will be ending DLC in a little over a week, I can finally rest well knowing that my five years of requesting Chevelle have finally paid off. Shame it wasn’t a week earlier to celebrate my birthday. I WILL make it known, however, that Harmonix calling it “Chevelle Pack 01” when [...]

The process of releasing each song previously packaged with Rock Band Blitz as standalone DLC has been tedious in my opinion, but the process will cease when the final bunch is released on the 19th of March, which includes Shout by Tears For Fears, Diamond Eyes by Deft—I mean, Shinedown, and the “I just shot Marvin in the face” song. Check out the full details, as well as RBN details, [...]

I may be in the middle of a move right now, but with only three original Rock Band DLC releases until the end of the world end of scheduled weekly DLC, I’m sure as hell not missing out on posting these so I ran on up to Walmart to jump on one of their display PCs to get filthy looks and post about Rock Band. You’re welcome. Maybe I should’ve [...]

The end of the Xbox 360 Games on Demand sale is upon us and things are ending not with a bang, not with a whisper, but with a roundhouse kick to the temple. That’s right, fighting games are the star of the day with eight games getting their discount on with everything over 50% off. Whether you’re a fan of Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, Tekken, or even King of Fighters, [...]

Well it’s presently 4am on the east cost in the US and today’s Xbox 360 Games on Demand sale prices STILL aren’t active on Xbox Live. Strange though, that the actual sale PAGE is up on the dashboard, so we know what’s in store for the day, we just can’t buy any of it yet. The important thing to know is that The Orange Box and Left 4 Dead 2 [...]
