40 Days, 40 Games

Posted by Hurricane iBrow , in Life, Video Games Feb 24 2012 · 14 views

So I was gonna do this thing where I would play a different game for one hour each day for 40 days, and I wouldn't be able to play any other video games except from the one scheduled for that day.

But then I remembered that I'm going to Jamaica for like 8 days, have cadets that kill Mondays, that Thursdays are the worst creation known to man, and that I'd have to give up Team Fortress 2 for at least a good 39 days.

So I decided not to.

Nintendo Power Awards 2011

Posted by Hurricane iBrow , in Life, Video Games Feb 22 2012 · 25 views

I was extremely disappointed with both the editors and the readers this time around; especially the readers, because Rayman Origins received not one single award from them.

Xenoblade Chronicles better get Wii game of the year for this year, or someone is being hunted down. I'm just saying. Anyway, now I'll share my choices for each of the awards (from the choices that were available):

Wii Game of the Year - Rayman Origins
3DS Game of the Year - Mario Kart 7 (would've chosen Star Fox 64 3D, but...)
DS Game of the Year - Solatorobo: Red the Hunter
Downloadable Game of the Year - The Legend of ZeldA: Four Swords Anniversary Edition

Best Wii Graphics - Rayman Origins
Best 3DS Graphics - Star Fox 64 3D
Best DS Graphics - Radiant Historia

Best Original Soundtrack - Rayman Origins
Best RPG/Strategy - Radiant Historia
Best Adventure Game - Solatorobo: Red the Hunter
Best Racing Game - Mario Kart 7
Best Sports Game - Don't Care
Best Shooter/Action Game - Star Fox 64 3D
Best Fighting Game - Don't Care
Best Multiplayer - Rayman Origins
Best Platformer - Rayman Origins

Best New Character - Don't Care
Best Story/Writing - Radiant Historia
Best New Idea - Playing as and interacting with shadows (Lost in Shadow, Wii)
Best Retro Revival - Star Fox 64 3D
Best Stereoscopic 3D - Star Fox 64 3D

As said above, had they given the option I would've voted for Star Fox 64 3D to take home the 3DS game of the year award.

Now that I've recounted 2011, I feel like I want to once again mention the games I'm currently looking forward to in the year ahead.

Name Change Coming In March

Posted by Hurricane iBrow , in BZPower, Video Games Feb 20 2012 · 19 views

Since we have only a  little over a week left in February, I'm now looking for suggestions. Preferably my new name will have something to do with the Pyro from Team Fortress 2.

Of course, I can always fall back on good ol' ibrow.

Ibrow Plays Team Fortress 2

Posted by Hurricane iBrow , in Movies, Video Games Feb 05 2012 · 12 views

As I write this entry my first ever Team Fortress 2 (or any video game) video is being uploaded, so I guess Ishould advertise it. There isn't any commentary, but google 1337ibrow and I think you'll find it. Maybe. It's my first video, so I dunno. You can try. It should work.
