Month: September 2007

It was on 9/9/9 that North America was blessed with the Sega Dreamcast. Now, eight years later, we celebrate Dreamcast Day! So plug in your old DC one more time and play some games! Looking over my collection, I think today shall see some Jet Grind Radio, Soul Calibur, Chu Chu Rocket, and perhaps even more! If only the PSO servers were still alive.

I just wanted to gloat a little. After however many months since the game’s release, I have finally completed the main quest of Oblivion. I have to say, it was one of the coolest endings I’ve ever seen in a game. So now that I’m done, I plan on playing around with some side quests and buying some of the smaller DLC until the retail release of Shivering Isle (with included Knights of the Nine) comes out in October. Anyone else have found memories of that game?

I didn’t have this info yet at the time of recording the latest show, but Gametap did see some releases this week. Are you ready to be John Romero’s bitch all over again?

• Daikatana (PC) – What was meant to be the most ambitious shooter of all time turned out to be a whole bunch of poorly executed features. Consider this one worth checking out purely for historical purposes.
• Infernal (PC) – This third person action game wasn’t actually terrible judging by the demo I played a few months back. Heaven and hell are fighting again, and you’re in the middle of it.
• Blast Miner (PC) – Some sort of indie puzzle title. I got nothing.
• Morning’s Wrath (PC) – Another Gametap indie title. I guess this is some sort of Diablo clone.
• Startopia (PC) – It’s like Simcity in space! A lot of people say that this game also seems like it could have been an inspiration for Viva Piñata. That would make it Viva Piñata in space!

Have fun, all you Gametappers. Incidentally, I’m Ajguy on Gametap as well, so feel free to drop me a line.
