The Devil In the Detail: Memorable Video Game Commercials
http://thedevilinthedetail.blogspot.com/2008/07/memorable-video-game-commercials.html
Wednesday, July 30, 2008. Add to del.icio.us. Memorable Video Game Commercials. I don't know why, but when I see a commercial for a video game, I shrug it off. Don't games get enough hype pre-release from other sources? The internet gives us gamers information about games months before these advertisements kick in. Best use of music - Assassin's Creed (PS3). Best Imagery - Gears of War (Xbox360). Yeah, it's the song from Donnie Darko. But 'Mad World' fits perfectly with the visual imagery we're prese...

The Devil In the Detail: Where Are You Hiding Arcade Cabinet??
http://thedevilinthedetail.blogspot.com/2008/06/where-are-you-hiding-arcade-cabinet.html
Friday, June 27, 2008. Add to del.icio.us. Where Are You Hiding Arcade Cabinet? In my city, there were a bunch of arcades where a hyperactive kid could spend his pesos. Tilt, Aladdin's Castle, two different Golflands, Chuck E Cheese, Nickel City. Now, only Golfland, CeC, and Nickel City remain. Nickel City is a fun place to kill some time and some aliens (in Alien vs. Predator). Most games. Well yeah, but I didn't hit any bonuses on these games. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Devil In the Detail: Gas or Games?
http://thedevilinthedetail.blogspot.com/2008/06/gas-or-games.html
Thursday, June 12, 2008. Add to del.icio.us. You know those commercials with the talking cars made by Chevron? Well I saw one recently with one car complaining to another that it doesn't. Get the same Techron gas as the other. Shut up please! The last thing I want to see on TV is anything about gas. Gas, and the lack of it in my car, has prevented me from doing a few things this summer. This includes purchasing items that entertain me, like video games. Of course, our dollar is worth less than Euros and ...

The Devil In the Detail: Games I Couldn't Finish
http://thedevilinthedetail.blogspot.com/2008/07/games-i-couldnt-finish.html
Wednesday, July 9, 2008. Add to del.icio.us. Games I Couldn't Finish. We've all been there. You're having fun, stomping on enemies and collecting items. You're trying to experience every minute detail, grinding your way through to 100% completion. But then something happens. You no longer have the drive to see the plot unfold, to learn all of the secrets and motivations of the characters. In short, you've lost your purpose in playing the game. What's the point, right? Shin Megami Tensei II. Yeah, me too.

The Devil In the Detail: Two-Player Mayhem!
http://thedevilinthedetail.blogspot.com/2008/06/two-player-mayhem.html
Tuesday, June 17, 2008. Add to del.icio.us. So, as I said in my first post, my best friend of twenty years is moving to Minnesota for his job. This is a list of what we played throughout the years, and our favorites for whatever strange reason. So here we go! Okay, so don't get me wrong. We do play the original Contra and Super C, but Contra Force holds a special place in our hearts. The four characters have their own special weapons that c. 4 Double Dragon II. 2 River City Ransom. The game continues to ...
