BattleBlock Theater – Secret Finder Achievement

You can find a secret in Level 1 – 7.  It’s not too hard to find and it’s right at the beginning.  I’ll show you here.  This also shows some of the great non-poop humor the game has when the announcer starts singing upon unlocking the level.  This will also make it easy to net you the A++ score for this level if you collect everything in the secret level.  Good Luck!

Huge Delays this week.

TumbleweedsSo first I’ll apologize for the delay in the contest.  We unofficially ran it longer and our winner is none other than @onyx62isThe other obvious lie I told this week is that we would be announcing the winner on the podcast.   “WHERE’S THE PODCAST!!!!”  Due to an illness suffered by me this week the podcast is getting recorded tonight.  It takes a lot of work to get all the hacks and coughs edited out so we postponed.  It’s gonna be cool though because we’ve got a LOT to say about BioShock Infinite.

DmC: Devil May Cry – Review

Genre: Action

Developer: Ninja Theory

Publisher: Capcom

Rating: M (Mature)

And so the rebirth of Devil May Cry (or DmC as some have took to calling the reboot) has finally
arrived. As a huge Devil May Cry fan, I’ve been anxious to check this title out. If the hive mind that is the internet is any indication, DmC is sure to be a polarizing game amongst veteran Devil May Cry players regardless of the reception.

Some will ultimately like Ninja Theory’s latest effort, some may not. But if you find yourself on middle ground and are unsure if you should spend your time or money to find out, click the jump to get my opinions on it. Continue reading
