Kratos must journey to the far reaches of the earth and defeat untold horrors and alter that which no mortal, or god has ever changed, his fate.

Scoring an astonishing 96% from 10 reviews on metacritic.com

GoW II completely eclipses its forefather, more blood, puzzles, cinematic presentation and fifteen minute long combos.
Delivers one of the best gaming experiences in the video game history
Sony's masterpiece, God of War II, trumps its prequel.
No review can truly capture the magnificence of God of War II
The graphics of GoW II are just as beautiful as ever with some of the best art direction in a game to date
It's not just one element that turned the game into a masterpiece, it's every element

Resident Evil Extinction Trailer





Hello Seamus here, guest blogger here on the feathery gamer. Denied an appropriate porn for Leprechauns post, I decided a shot of Milla Jovovich in suspenders would just have to do. The official trailer and behind the scenes footage were an afterthought.

The film is set 3 years or so After RE1 and RE2, and borrows plot elements from the game "Code Veronica". We find Alice hiding in the Nevada desert, teamed up with Carlos Olivera and L.J., along with new survivors Claire, K-Mart and Nurse Betty (Ashanti in a nurses uniform........)

Together the unlikely named bunch try to eliminate the deadly virus that threatens to make every human being undead. Now being undead can't be all bad if one was just left alone to get on with the whole zombification scene. But oh no, not content to let the undead... erm.. undie in peace, Milla and her buddies are intent on seeking justice.

Alice, Genetically altered (and wearing suspenders....), her super-human strengths, senses and dexterity are put to good use in what the Official website is declaring is her last adventure.

Set for general release 21st September 2007, Trailer upped by brian199232

Ghost Rider (2007) Movie



Despite rustling up $52 million and leading the box office field on it's debut, the film has only managed a grade of 35% from 17 reviews on Metacritic.

Time therefore to celebrate the wonder of hype, with some of the artwork that made the comic such a screaming success.

Sonic and the Secret Rings (Wii) Review

Sonic finds himself in the colorful and vibrant world of the Arabian Nights, where he embarks on his most outrageous journey to date through an expansive 3D world brought to life with realistic water reflections, light bloom and lifelike physics.

The game Currently on Shelves in US, makes use of the Ageia PhysX engine. and manages to score a healthy 76% from 7 reviews on Metacritic.com
Reviews Summary
An encouraging sign that good Sonic games can still be made.
By no means perfect, it's tricky to master but once you do, it really shines.
Moments of greatness moments of imprecise control or insulting design choices.
Something that is definitely worth a rental, some might find it too short to be a purchase,
An excellent sense of speed and plenty of depth, makes Sonic fun again
Innovative single-player, but multiplayer is another low-budget "Mario Party" rip-off
A Sonic console game you can feel proud to own

Alizee J’en ai marre



In 2003 Alizée Jacotey, performed in the video above, the routine was later made into the dance animation for the female Night Elves in the popular MMORPG, World of Warcraft. Alizée was considered to be the protégée of Mylène Farmer, but is currently taking a break from singing, it has been rumoured she will return with a new album soon. Upped by eyeball

Speaking of dance the Leprechaun has promised us a dance post this week.

Aye I have

. . . . . .

...Care to shed any light on that dance post?

...Ah.... No!

Right, well then we'll have to wait....

Pangya Cosplay character Kooh





Seamus here (the leprechaun), luckily I had this prepared earlier, now if you'll excuse me I need to lie down.

PangYa is a Korean online multiplayer, casual golf simulation game, available for free to download. Certain special items for the game (such as clothes for characters, new equipment and new playable characters) can only be purchased with real money. The game awards players with Pang, a currency that can be used to upgrade a character, or items to gain the upper hand during a course. The game's outcome is usually determined by personal skill.

PangYa currently has servers in Korea, Japan, Thailand, Brazil, Indonesia, Taiwan, Philippines, China, Singapore (serving Southeast Asia as well) and the US (known as Albatross18), with plans to expand to more English speaking countries.

Leprechaun requests: God of War II video review from IGN


Jeez what a night!! Seamus the Leprechaun here, a little the worse for wear after last night, so if you'll excuse me i'll skip the chit chat and get right down to it, and if someones got any headache tablets email em now!!!

Going out to Father Krishna, a 7 minute video review of God of War II "as nearly perfect as they come" said IGN who awarded the game a 9.7 outta 10. Armed with all-new brutal combat moves and magic, players retake the role of Kratos and embark on a new epic adventure to change the fate of mortals and Gods alike.

The request says: "Post for Father Krishna- he has never seen God of War....??
Poor B~@@@$ must be locked in a dungeon!"

Review Ridge Racer 7 (ps3)

A significant update to Namco's arcade-style Racer, with 375,000 ways to make your machine unique, and up to 7,150 combinations to tailor performance.
Scoring 78% from 36 reviews on Metacritic, it's obvious customisation wasn't the only attraction.

Reviews Summary
There's no denying that Ridge Racer 7 is a solid, fun arcade racer.
Mastering Ridge Racer 7 feels more like a mathematical exercise than a game.
Solid visuals, excellent arcade drifting action, car customization, and promising online,
Certainly not a system seller, not when the game is readily available on other platforms
One of the most underrated PS3 games at launch,
Feel like a member of a global race community, the audio is less than stellar
A somewhat boring single player game
Easily is the best installment yet for the main series

Ghost Rider Game Review (ps2) Crap!


Hello Seamus the Leprechaun here!!! how are ye? well the post title says it all, another Movie licensed game heading at full throttle to the bargain bin. How bad?

50% from 9 reviews on Metacritic.com with IGN saying

"The combat is repetitive and clunky, the driving is horrid, and the plot is completely useless"

and Gamespot

"Ghost Rider steals liberally from several major action games, yet somehow avoids stealing the parts that made those games fun."

I shoulda known when I saw the screenshots,

You may wish to visit The Ghost Rider Game Official Website where you can salvage some tasty wallpaper from this ps2 travesty

Thankfully with such horrid reviews I can now concentrate on my Korean Cosplay post, every cloud has a silver lining.

Oblivion Shivering Isles Preview





Weighing in at 1.5 gigabytes, Shivering Isles will introduce an entire new plane of Oblivion, roughly a quarter of the size of the original game. The Expansion, due for download for the xbox 360 in March, will feature new settlements, characters, quests, a new storyline, and a promised 30 hours of gameplay.

Update!! Shivering Isles Review

No information as yet on the cost of the expansion, rumour on gamerhelp.com suggests

$29.99 (2,400 mp) or €22, (1,834 mp)*

though using a large dollop of innocence. . . . let's see 25% size of original, plus a discount for luck, leaves me with (counts on fingers....)

$24 (1,920 mp) €17.99 (1,500mp) *

With Oblivion sales currently topping three million units, Bethesda wouldn't rip us off would they?

*(note on microsoft points, Each region is billed for Microsoft points in their own local currency. The pricing however does not change with the current exchange rates, meaning some regions pay more for the same amount of points than others. see wikipedia)
