Final Fantasy VII is a Shitpile, or Not: Versus!

Few games have inspired such passionate feelings as Final Fantasy 7.  It has sparked debate 
endlessly since it's release more than a decade ago.  In our first Versus feature, Zack Keyes and Rock offer up their thoughts, in what is surely to be a rousing back and forth!  Read on and have your nostalgia validated! Or crushed... Zack is in green, Rock is in blue.

Your Chance to Ask the Questions!

Have you ever wondered what life as a gams jarnalist is REALLY like?  Did you dream as a child of getting free games, alcohol, and women?  Are you still under the impression that that's true?  Well, now's your chance to ask those questions yourself!  I've set up some interviews with Top Men from the world of games journalism, and I want your questions for them!  So think up some doozys and post them in the comments.  I look to have these interviews for you guys next week!

SURPRISE LOVE from Surpriselove

We've started getting some rather amusing messages from a man who calls himself "Surpriselove."  We have no idea what these messages are, what purpose they serve, or if Surpriselove even knows what this site is about.  But we've decided to share them, one a week, with all of you.  For your viewing pleasure. I guess.

Battlefield 3: Xbox 360 Beta Impression

Every year a military shooter comes out. Every year the market gets more and more over saturated with the samey shooters. Every year people complain about each one, or champion each one as the best of the year (or entire world/time). I only just started playing online shooters last year. Where I introduced myself to Battlefield: Bad Company 2, Halo: Reach, and Call of Duty: Black Ops.

Apparently it was the year of colons....

But seemingly enough, the only title I stayed with was Battlefield.

Resident Evil 4 HD: First Impressions

It's hard to overstate the impact that Resident Evil 4 has had on gaming. From redefining 3rd person gaming, to revitalizing survival horror itself. Shinji Mikami made a modern masterpiece. And although the changes it made to a series I love dearly still bother me, there is no denying this game is one of the best made in the last 10 years. But how has it aged? Read on to see my first feelings...

Update on Batman: Arkham City Exclusive Skins

In a few weeks, I'll be reviewing Batman: Arkham City.  If you've followed the press for the game, you might have seen all the retailer-specific skins that will be available.  I, myself, am incredibly partial to the Batman: The Animated Series skin, which is exclusive to GameStop pre-orders.  In addition to skins for Batman, Robin will be getting his own variant skins, for use in the combat challenges.

I am pretty opposed to retailer-specific DLC, and I already have Amazon Prime, so I resigned myself to just not getting that Animated Series skin that looks so badass.  But while browsing release dates, I came across some good news.  According to a Rocksteady representative, all of the skins will eventually become DLC available to everyone, regardless of where they bought Arkham City from.  I couldn't have been happier. The less money I have to spend at GameStop, the better.

KGB, Now in Your Ears!

Finally, after a lot of hard work, KGB is recording our first podcast, KGB Radio!  This is something that we've planned from the start, with technical aspects that we couldn't possibly have foreseen, but after a long month of planning, it's finally happening. We're all really excited to get this ball rolling. The first cast will be recorded this Friday night, and will feature myself, Chris Linendoll, Zack Keyes, Pat Ronk, and Humor Tumor. I underline recorded, because I can't tell how long it will take to edit and post, but hopefully it'll be up not more than a couple days later.  Stay tuned for more!
