Ugh…..
Okay lets go over this.
Shitty actors check
Bad dialogue check
cheap looking costumes check
terrible 3d effects check
Desecration of one of Nintendo’s most priced franchise check
I’m still gonna try to watch it..if I can be found anywhere when it releases..
But that Megaman movie is looking better and better.

About time I did another one of these.
This is definatly not a easy pick, there are so many great themes on the NES, I can’t even count them, I mean I could probably fill up two of these top ten lists with Megaman themes alone.
So I must limit it to one per franchise.
#10
Gremlins 2 - Stage 1
I love this little jingle. I remember I actually used to play the game just to hear this theme. This game is pretty good as well, it’s hard as hell though.
#9
Blaster Master - Stage 1
This one is pure classic. Not only is it a great theme but the game is freaking awesome. But holy god is it hard, but I guess that was a running theme with games back then.
#8
Castlevania 3 - Beginning
Many great themes to be found in the Castlevania series and I consider this one being the best(on the NES that is)
#7
Jurrassic Park - Stage 1
The game is alright at best, but this song is great.
#6
Contra(Probotector) - Stage 1
The first videogame my parents gave to me(apart from Mario/Duckhunt that came with the system), Probotector is one of the best and memorable game I’ve ever played. It’s still addictive as hell. I do have to admit that I did use the konami code last time I went through it, the game is near impossible without it.
#5
Faxandu - Theme
One of the first RPG games I played back in the day. Apart from this song, all I can remember about the game in any detail is the horribly long password you had to enter to continue.
# 4
Batman - Stage 1
Batman on the NES is one of the few Batman games I’ve played that have given the Dark Knight justice. The soundtrack is overall great but this one stands out to me.
# 3
Super Mario Bros Stage 1
The toughest decision out of all of them since there are so many great songs from Super Mario Bros 1-3. But this one takes the gold mainly for being probably the most recognisable Videogame Theme song of all time.
# 2
Megaman 2 - Quickman Stage
The Megaman series is filled with memorable and awesome music but for me, this one stands out among them, even though it’s a really close contest.
# 1
Legend of Zelda - Outworld
They just don’t get any more classic then this one, it is easily my favorite on any console.
This concludes my top ten favorite NES themes.
Stay tuned for the top ten SNES themes.

No it’s not coming to cinemas near you, but it is being made by a fan. It doesn’t look all that bad to be honest especially for being a fan made movie.

We will not go silently into the night you zombie scums! We shall endure and use whatever weapons and resources at our disposal. At the end of all of this, there can only be one of two outcomes, either we survive or we die but through our courage we will be victorious and no army of rotten worm infested walking corpses are going to stand in the way of our survival!
Left 4 Dead has landed, so grab your shotgun and explode some zombie heads!

I was doing whole lot of cursing on Sunday after my Xbox 360 started freezing up with vertical lines going down the screen, eventually ending with RROD.
I tried the towel trick and I did get it working for a little while longer that way. but in the long run the towel trick would only cause things to get worse. My warranty has long since expired on my 360 and even if it wasn’t, the company that I had warranty with has gone bankrupt.
Luckily enough, I saw over at the Icelandic Xbox 360 community a post from a guy who said he could fix 360s. So yesterday I dropped it off at his place, and only had to pay a nominal fee compared with what it would have cost me to buy a new 360.
It’s running like a dream now, he cleaned it up and he also seems to have fixed the problems I was having with the DVD drive as well.
The funny thing is, this is the second 360 that has failed on me and I remember that it first started failing after I tried out the demo for Crackdown.
Now, on Sunday I got a crazy urge to fire up Crackdown for the heck of it and….then it froze up…
Now I’m afraid to even put the game near my 360… :p
Anyway, Gears of War 2 is good, I haven’t gone far into the campaign yet because I feel that this game should be played co-op and not alone.
I’ve also tried out the demo for L4D, in short, it’s going to be awesome. 
Oh I’m also playing through Force Unleashed that I got from a friend. It’s a great game, and definatly one of the better Star wars themed games that I’ve played.
Well…hmm I’ll leave you with this video below.

It’s here, it’s finally here!
Gears of War 2 hit the retail stores today and I went and picked it up around noon.
I’ve only scratched the surface of it so far but right from the start, not a lot has really changed. The graphics are a little prettier and I’ve come across one new weapon, you can also crawl away now if you are hurt and if you are playing Single player you aren’t automaticly dead, the AI will revive you.
Other then that, the gameplay is the same.
However this is by no means a bad thing, Gears of War is one of my favorite games and so having another crack at gunning down the Locust as Marcus Fenix is a welcome treat.
You start of defending a Hospital against the Locust, 6 months after the end of Gears of War and clearly the Lightmass bomb was not nearly enough to take out the Locust and due to evapouration of Immulsion after the explotion a new disease Rust Lung started spreading among the remaining human population and thus Humanity is left at the brink of extinction. When cities started to disappear COG started suspecting the Locust were back. Now with their last stronghold being in the city of Jacinto which sits on a Plateau thought to be impenetrable. But when it starts to show sign that it might not be so. COG sees no other option but to launch a massive counter attack against the Locust and taking the fight to where they live in an effort to save Jacinto.
At the start of the game, Delta Squad gets a rookie squad member called Benjamin Carmine which is the brother of Anthony Carmine who died in the first game. Now they use this to take you through the tutorial mode which is pretty neat. Since usually it’s pretty stupid when a War veteran such as Fenix would be taken through a tutorial learning about stuff he’s been doing for 20 years, but here they can do it with Fenix teaching the rookie how to do it.
The game also features upgrade multiplayer mode, with 10 players being able to play online vs the 8 player limit in the original and three new multiplayer modes called Gurdian, Wingman and Submission. They have also implanted a Matchmaking system similar to that of Halo. They have also implanted bots in multiplayer matches now, which is great. They are also available in a special tutorial mode for multiplayer so you can actually try out the new game modes before you go online and get your ass kicked.
Also as an added bonus there is a new five player co-op mode called Horde. Where you and 4 of your buddies can play together to fight off and endless waves of Locust attacking.
I’ll add something more about the game once I’ve had a little more time with it.
Oh and also
