The Gaming World According to C-Rose
It’s been a while since I last spoke. A lot has changed in the world. The Lakers won – We lost MJ and then there was E3. It’s interesting that these events all had one thing in common – downtown LA. Between the Staples Center and the LA Convention Center LA has been the center of the world for the last month or so….
There’s a lot that happened at E3 but I’m sure most of you have read about it by now, everything from Project NATAL by Xbox to the new lineup of titles for PS3 and innovative titles like DJ Hero and the must have-Modern Warfare 2.
But, if you’re looking for something to play RIGHT NOW you need to get with Fight Night, Round 4. This game is simple goodness. I recommend giving Tyson a try.
Also, another highly anticipated title is Left 4 Dead 2 by Valve. There’s been some controversy in the blogosphere about this being a weak expansion of the original L4D but I disagree, the game is simple and plain fun, gather up and kill some zombies (and make sure you stay together)-that’s it. There’s nothing much to really innovate on that concept – just to enjoy.
BTW, I want for this to be an interactive conversation so I look forward to your comments and questions about the gaming industry. Is anyone out there looking for the new DirectX 11 cards? Will you upgrade to Windows 7? Do you play Casual Games? If so with your spouse or parents? Let me know.
