I don’t speak Dutch so I have no idea what they’re saying in the video below, but I do know that the game footage excites me. I can honestly say that the original Ghostbusters movie was one of my favorites growing up (along with Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure and the original TMNT movie). [...]

Tried out the Call of Duty 4 demo this morning. My first thoughts are that it’s certainly a little more frenetic than 1 or 2, but the feel is very much the same. Graphics are excellent, even on my rig; my video card is a 6800 Ultra, so that holds me back a little bit [...]
The Orange Box is Portal-rific!
Published by October 12th, 2007 in Game Reviews and Games. 2 CommentsBeing the good little Valve fanboy that I am, I went out and picked up The Orange Box at Circuit City Wed evening after work (it’s currently on sale for $37.99 btw). Although I could have pre-ordered the bundle on Steam, I generally like to wait and pick up the discs. I’m [...]
New Contender in the Mouse Debates
Published by August 23rd, 2007 in Gadgets, Games and Hardware. 0 CommentsRudeboy and I have different taste in mice, but we share one thing: a fancy mouse won’t buy you any extra frags. Now, granted, you’re not going to get a lot of kills if you’re playing with your laptop’s trackpad or little eraser-thingy pointer. But I’ve almost always been happy with an ancient two-button optical [...]
Well, I cranked up the BioShock demo last night. It played pretty well with my system, in spite of the fact that I didn’t bother trying to tweak and turn things off. The framerate was too low, but I wanted a feel for what a DX9 card would present. My current rig has a Core [...]
Tired of using your lame attempt at a car badge in Mario Kart DS? Well… me too.
Good thing there’s a site like DSIcons.com to assist those of us who are less apt at creating anything other than a pixel blob in the icon editor. As the picture to the right shows, the [...]
DS Game of the Week: Mario Hoops 3 on 3
Published by August 6th, 2007 in DS Game Of The Week, Game Reviews and Games. 0 CommentsWell… as I predicted, I’ve been somewhat of a failure at posting the DS game of the week on a weekly basis. But in my defense, my real job has been quite demanding the last month or so. To tell the truth, I actually have a whole list of stuff to post, [...]
Here at the ModStomp Mansion, we’re rather enamored with Guitar Hero. We pretty much play it as often as humanly possible and although we mostly suck at it, we enjoy it more than a warm milk bath. That being said, I think we’ve now found a game that will be able to dethrone [...]
Ok… so Guitar Hero doesn’t technically have a “God-Mode” or “God” related difficulty level, but if it did… it would exist specifically for this guy. I bow to his utter Guitar Hero god-ness and plan to pray to him nightly as he sits upon his Fender made throne at the top of [...]
So I just watched the latest gameplay trailer from the new game “The Darkness” and I have to admit that I found it a tad disturbing. Now, I want to preface the following comments by saying that I’m a huge first-person shooter fan. I’ve been playing fps games for over 10 years and [...]
