Fairly Angry Mike: Call of Juarez: Gunslinger
Yo!
Check out my new review of Call of Juarez: Gunslinger. A wild wild west FPS game with intense action and great story.
The low price tag and fantastic storytelling makes this a must buy in my opinion.
Take care!

Razer Atrox
Hey guys!
Are you a fan of fighting games like myself? Of course you are. There is not much that beat the fast paced action of Marvel vs Capcom 3 or Street Fighter 4. But are you playing those games the way they are supposed to be played? With an Arcade stick?
If not then you might want to check out Razers new Arcade stick Razer Atrox which is available for preorder right now. It works for both Xbox 360 and PC and is fully moddable.
You can also check out their store to the right there if you feel like browsing around. ;)
Until next time!

Xbox One reveal - highlights
Here you have some nice highlights from the unveiling of the new Xbox One. ;)
Xbox One - Always online? Maybe.
Hey guys!
More and more information about the Xbox One keeps coming in. Today we can read on Kotaku that the Xbox One does require an internet connection in order to play. Or does it?
According to this update in the article it seems that Microsoft themselves are not sure. Or atleast haven't decided yet.
"While Phil [Harrison] discussed many potential scenarios around games on Xbox One, today we have only confirmed that we designed Xbox One to enable our customers to trade in and resell games at retail," a Microsoft rep said. "There have been reports of a specific time period — those were discussions of potential scenarios, but we have not confirmed any details today, nor will we be."
Either way having to be connected atleast once in a 24 hour period is most likely not a hassle for us people that are always online but it really should not be a requirement. Should you not be allowed to play on your new Xbox One if you don't have a connection? Seems pretty stupid to me.
Hopefully Microsoft can sort this out soon and provide us all with more solid details on exactly what you can and can't do with their new console.
Take care!

Microsoft and the Xbox One reveal!
Yo!
So here we are. Microsoft finally unveiled the Xbox One and man there is alot of buzz going on right now. A lot of people being unhappy with everything from the design to the lack of games they are showing to the fact that most games will need to be installed directly on the hard drive.
Personally I am not that worried. I actually like the design as it reminds me of an A/V reciever. It looks cool. Also the inital unveilings are in my opinion never pretty and with time I am sure the Xbox One will have a ton of great games to offer.
Check out more about the Xbox One here.

Metro: Last light
Hey guys!
Soon Metro: Last light will be released. This makes me Happy Mike. However, I am a PC gamer and I just read that you will not be able to set your FOV in this game. You will also be unable to turn off aim assist in the menus. The only way to change this is by tinkering in the config files.
I find this irritating. These are simple things that could and should be readily available for a gamer to change. On the PC atleast.
Anyways. Look forward to my review of this game in the next few days. I am pretty sure it will scare the crap out of me so that will be fun. I guess.
Later!

Human face rendering demo
Hey guys!
Do you like tech demos? If you do then you are in luck. Nvidia just released their Ira face demo for us regular mortals to play around with. You can find it here.
I suppose the goal is to escape the uncanny valley and even if I am not sure they managed to do it I still think it is a very cool demo.
Check it!

Diablo 3 patch 1.0.8 is LIVE
Hey guys!
Finally the new Diablo 3 patch is out. You can read the patch notes here. So what do we think of this patch. Well first off there seems to be a massive bug that came with it.
Certain players have been able exploit the AH to gain massive amount of golds. Literally billions and billions so well done there!
Other than that Gold and magic find has gotten a buff. Not sure if that is a good thing but hey it might make it more fun since there really is not much to do in the game nowadays. Maps are still not random and the loot you find still comes with randomized stats so good luck there. :)
You can now search for multiplayer games based on certain criteria such as if you want to do a key warden run or just kill monsters etc. This is a very good addition to the matchmaking system in my opinion.
I am sad to say that Diablo 3 still suffers from the same old core problems (non random maps and random stats on loot) so at the end of the day this patch is quite underwhelming for me.
Well, have a great day and enjoy your gaming!

Fairly Angry Mike: Mars War Logs - Review
Hello!
Just got this new game called Mars: War Logs. It is a linear story driven RPG with pretty much the same mechanics as The Witcher 2. Not as good as The Witcher 2 but still a decent game.
Check out my nonsensical review up there.
Take care!
