Shadow Complex

Shadow Complex was released today on Xbox Live Arcade.

After doing some research online I’ve bought a Dazzle capture card, so that I can digitally record and edit my gameplay of xbox games. I’ve created a video here, for you to see some of the first 10 minutes of Shadow Complex.

I’ve also outlined my ideas for possible future videos. Please subscribe on Youtube. I intend to make many more videos, and the quality of the recording and editing will only improve ..read more

Braid

We’ve all played Super Mario Brothers. It’s the quintessential platformer. You know the score, jump on their heads to kill em and make your way to the castle at the end.

In that respect, Braid isn’t that far off SMB. But as it turns out, Braid has a few magical tricks up its sleeve. Just like Mario, it’s not your average platformer.

It’s a side scrolling affair where you play a little chap called Tim. Your quest is to find the princess ..read more

Street Fighter IV

Anybody who knows me knows why I have taken so long to get the new paulietheboss site finished.

They know why I’m up late at night making clacking sounds while I abuse my stick (ooh err) and they know why I spend hours looking at strategy information and discussion on shoryuken … all because of a game.

I’ve been a big gamer for as long as ..read more

Prototype

I managed to grab a copy of Prototype for the Xbox 360 the other day. Got it for £25 including delivery - not too shabby for a relatively new game that’s going for £40 everywhere in the shops!

Anyway, thought I’d take a little time to outline some information on Prototype, and the good/bad.

Before I get into that I’ll share a little story. A friend of mine from a messageboard (shout out to Chris “cheap throw” Bakewell) told me about an ..read more

Crank 2: High Voltage

Ok lets face it, right off the bat it’s pretty obvious that Crank: High Voltage isn’t exactly what you’d call high brow film-making. But the thing is that it doesn’t have to be.

It watches like a comic book reads, and for certain situations that is a good thing. Now for those of you unaware of the franchise,  the previous film Crank (2006) was one film that actually fits the bill of “an absolute balls-to-the-wall romp.”

I have to be ..read more
