Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2 (First Look)

I have been a long-time fan of the original PS3 game (Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm) and was extremely excited to learn a sequel was forthcoming. The gameplay videos and QTEs (quick time events) all looked really well done, and looked to be in keeping with everything that made the original good. In addition, the single-player game looked ridiculously beautiful, and that was an aspect I couldn't care less about in the original game. So... is the game living up to the hype? Check out my first impressions after the jump.

Browncoats, Unite!

Nothing but good things have been coming out about the Uncharted (2) game and apparently they are going to try and capitalize on this success and make it a movie. While I was borderline on this news at first, I then discovered this:




Yes, Nathan Fillion (a.k.a Captain Reynolds, Captain Hammer, Richard Castle) is running a Twitter/viral campaign to be cast as Nathan Drake. While I know relatively little about the Uncharted world, what I have seen leads me to believe that Fillion is the perfect fit for the role. This has nothing to do with a man-crush.


I swear...

Anyway, tweet this post, share it on FB or simply use the #nathanfillionfornathandrake tag in your tweets. Get this ball rolling Browncoats!

My Latest iPhone Obsession: Color Bind

In the world of iPhone games, there's quite a lot out there to occupy your time. For me though, I really don't like spending any money on games, no matter how cheap, when I have no idea what they play like. Then I saw the video below and jumped all over this game. There's a free demo, so you can always download that first to see how it plays. The full game costs $1.99. Not bad at all for a few hours of fun.

Color Bind is ridiculously addictive. A very simple concept (basically connect-the-dots), but with a few twists and rules that make its slowly-growing challenge worth several hours of fun, at least. Give it a whirl!

Check out the review of the game  (done by appspy) after the jump.
