E3 2010: Fallout New Vegas Impressions

by Joseph Christ · June 17th, 2010 · 17 Comments

Being a huge Fallout fan I’ve been looking forward to the release of Fallout: New Vegas ever since it was announced.  Lucky for me I was able to get some hands-on time with the game today to see how I might be spending the next 100+ hours of my life once it hits stores. Fallout: [...]

E3 2010: Two Worlds II Impressions

by Joseph Christ · June 17th, 2010 · 16 Comments

Honestly this won’t take long. One reason I’m writing about this is because I’ve mentioned in past podcasts that I’ve been excited for this game.  Sure the first one had numerous problems but thats what sequals are for right? To learn from past mistakes, to grow as a development company, and to correct past transgressions. [...]

E3 2010: Vanquish Impressions

by Joseph Christ · June 17th, 2010 · 13 Comments

You should know that I have an erection. It protrudes from me like the proud prow of a mighty Spanish galleon.  And I have given it a name. Vanquish it shall be. I had some time to play Platinum Games’  sci-fi action game and I haven’t been able to get it out of my mind [...]

Ninja Theory is the team responsible for PS3′s Heavenly Sword and with that project, they not only demonstrated competent game design but they set the bar for story telling and character presentation in gaming. Today, I kicked off my E3 experience with some hands on time with “Enslaved: Odyssey to the West”, a multi-platform game [...]

E3 2010: Kane and Lynch 2 Hands On

by Joseph Christ · June 15th, 2010 · 11 Comments

I’ve secretly been excited for Kane and Lynch for a few months now. Ever since they released that trailer that had them barging in on a naked couple, a few random cuts (and shaky camera movements later) they were chasing a naked and screaming woman down an alleyway.  The entire thing was designed to look like [...]

E3 2010: Dead Space 2 Impresses

by Nick Henderson · June 15th, 2010 · 10 Comments

EA’s press conference was by far my favorite conference we have attended thus far.  Not only because of the number of high profile titles that were demonstrated but because of the general approach to delivering content.  But that is for a whole different post (to be posted later).  When EA unveiled their gameplay trailer of [...]

E3 2010: Bad Company, Battlefield Vietnam Announcement

by Joseph Christ · June 14th, 2010 · 4 Comments

One of the best things I’ve heard at the conferences we attended today was the upcoming arrival of the next Bad Company 2 expansion.  Taking place in Vietnam it looks to possibly be a redo of what I consider to be one of the best, and one of the most underrated Battlefield games. We were [...]

by Joseph Christ · June 14th, 2010 · 22 Comments

After a long time waiting we here at 4Player Podcast made it into the Natal / Kinect reveal show.  We actually found out the new name of the system while standing on line.  After about three hours of joshing for position we were finally let inside.  What happened after that is something that is hardly [...]

Alan Wake, I beat the entire game in one night. Many things to say, and the words will come. Until then… It’s worth your money. People will remember this shit. -Travis

My Frustrations with Professor Layton

by Nick Henderson · April 29th, 2010 · 7 Comments

My absence from the site for the past few weeks has been unfortunate but I have been trying desperately to keep up with the new releases and tackle some of my laundry list as of late. My latest conquest has been a fresh experience (to say the least) but also one of the most frustrating [...]

Just Cause 2 and why it brings us one step closer to the Holy Grail of space sims.

by Joseph Christ · April 27th, 2010 · 8 Comments

Just Cause 2 is a wonderful and expansive game. Looking at my game stats I see that I have played the game for over 18hrs but I’m sitting it around 16% completion. For someone who spent a whole lot of time in Fallout 3, those kinds of odds are music to my ears. But more [...]

Do as the Picture Says…

by Alan · April 13th, 2010 · 37 Comments

In the online world we see “featured” users, boasting stars, colors, banners, pictures, or other such things that represent public recognition. In an online community these contributions usually come in the form of comments.  So are the comments made by a featured individual any better than everyone else’s? What about the comments made by those [...]
