University of Florida Giving Credit For Playing Starcraft
I always pictured the University of Florida as a delightful candyland of debauchery, where women didn’t sheath themselves in North Face and even the lowliest of male specimens not named Tebow sexed it up regularly.

Killzone 2 Preview

Killzone 2 will be the sequel to the original lackluster title Killzone on the PlayStation 2. Do not be lulled into believing that the sequel will be as abhorrent as the first iteration. Killzone 2 was another one of those video games that was missing in action until now. The first glimpse of Killzone 2 was at E3 2005, and critics said that the footage shown was not actual gameplay footage. Those critics were dead wrong when actual gameplay footage was divulged to the media at E3 2007. At a recent gaming convention at Germany, more details were revealed regarding the game. In Killzone 2, gamers will be at war against the Helghast troops (same opponents from Killzone). The game developers accentuated how easy and intuitive the controls were on the PlayStation 3. Specifically, a brand new gameplay mechanic was introduced. This was known as lean and peek. In a nutshell, this is about utilizing cover (ala Gears of War). Interestingly enough, this was the first time I have ever seen taking advantage of cover being used in a first person shooter. I have never seen using cover in order to get a tactical advantage be used in Halo, Half-life, Resistance: Fall of Man, Doom, Call of Duty, or Killzone 1. This is definitely an original feature to the first person genre. Do not fret because the lean and peek method works like a charm. The gaming company Guerilla will be making the game, and they also showed a boss battle. This is where some strategic contemplation was entailed. These bosses are called heavies, and you cannot just fire at them arbitrarily. Shooting their vulnerable areas are the only way to defeat these juggernauts. The physics in Killzone 2 seems to be much more responsive than Killzone. For instance, shooting an adversary in the legs will result in him bleeding and falling to the ground. In addition, a headshot will instantaneously eradicate a foe. A lack of a heads up display (ala Fight Night Round 3) was also publicized in Killzone 2. This is shown to have the players more immersed in the video game atmosphere. It worked well in Fight Night Round 3, so I believe it will work perfectly in Killzone 2. The visuals are stunning to say the least. The whether effects are right on par with other first person shooters like FEAR. The most intriguing aspect of the gameplay has to be its versatility. If you are a fan of duck and cover (ala Gears of War), use the lean and peak feature. If you are a fan of running and gunning, (ala Resistance: Fall of Man) feel free to spray your rivals with bullets as you run circles around them. Killzone 2 is exclusively for the PlayStation 3, and it is slated for a 2008 release date.

Microsoft’s Xbox 360 is one of the most widely used and advanced gaming console available in today’s market. Despite its elegance, the one problem that has been widely reported is the red lights problem or more commonly known as red ring of death. Experts have estimated that this problem pops up in 25-35% of the gaming consoles. Being a reasonably high end product, it very often annoys users and even turns them to completely different brands.

Repair guides:

The easiest way to fix this problem is to send it back to the manufacturer. If the issue arises during the warranty period, the manufacturer usually replaces it for free in 4-6 weeks. If the product has lapsed the warranty period, the manufacturer charges to fix up the problem. Due to the amount of time and money involved, very often users do not prefer to send their console to the manufacturer but figure out ways to fix the problem. There are quite a few commercially available guides which claim to permanently solve the problem in an hour’s time without requiring any special tools. Most of these guides are in the electronic version and are accompanied by easy to understand user friendly videos. Some of them even have a customer support service to handle advanced issues.

Steps:

There are four red lights in the console and each one of these corresponds to a particular section of the console. One flashing light usually indicates some general hardware problems and can be resolved by simply unplugging the cords and rebooting the console. However, this is a warning sign that the console can is headed for the red ring of death. This is an ideal time to revisit the manuals and start observing all the necessary precautions. The flashing of two lights indicates overheating of the console and can be avoided by a 20-30 minute break after every 2-3 hours. An external cooling fan is advised especially for the players who use this console continuously for longer hours. The flashing of the three lights is the most dreaded problem and indicates serious failure of the hardware. This can be handled by referring to one of those credible professional guides or taking help of someone who has overcome this problem. The flashing of four red lights is not a serious problem and can be overcome by checking all the cables and replacing them if necessary.

Precautions to be kept in mind

Being a very common problem, the cyber world is filled with sites and forums which claim to have solutions to the notorious red ring of death problem. Some of the solutions like the “towel trick method” involving the covering of the console with a towel or cooling the console by placing it in a freezer should be totally avoided. These do not solve the problem but end up permanently damaging the console. The “towel trick method” stops the air circulation inside the console and could even ignite a fire. Hence, excessive caution needs to be exercised while following unverified solution methods.

Review: Metroid Prime – First of Great Game Series

Written by Podunker: bytemap

Quick Summary:
Pros:

* Control scheme is implemented and quite fun
* Graphics are top notch for Gamecube
* Sounds are spectacular and speak highly of an unknown universe.
* Large open map that is HUGE and fun

* Large map that is HUGE and requires back tracking, some may not like.

Publisher / Developer: Nintendo / Retro Studios
Platform(s): Nintendo GameCube, Wii
Release date(s):

* Nintendo GameCube – November 17, 2002
* Wii – (NA) August 24, 2009

Genre(s): First-person shooter, Action-Adventure

Story: 9 / 10

Of all the series of Metroid, Prime seems the one to set itself from the rest because it does its best to include a story. Not to say the others didn’t, but for a newer generation and the fact that it’s in 3D, I think they want to prove a point. Let’s keep in mind now: this is not your side-scroller anymore, and because of that a lot of elements had to be changed–cut-scenes, backlog to the story, and much more are in included here.

This Metroid takes place right after Super Metroid (SNES). You are Samus, super heroine to the stars, and receive a distress signal from a Space Pirate Frigate that has been slaughtered upon your arrival by their own experiments. Upon arriving, you battle one of their mutated experiments only to be halfway blown up, losing all your suit upgrades and find out that Ridley is not normal like before. He is now known as Meta-Ridley (thought you killed him before in previous Metroids, but you didn’t somehow (*DRAT*).

So you pursue Meta-Ridley through this world called Talon in order to find and destroy him. Now, here is where the fun begins. Besides having to navigate huge labyrinths of an old civilization, you begin to discover secrets of your past, the metroid’s past and much more. I won’t go into too much detail as this is what makes the game fun. As you explore this vast planet, you will also regain your suit upgrades, fight menacing bosses that are quite fun , and come across some science labs that housed experiments that are *tadah* mini-Metroids to soon discover an even BIGGER secret…Metroid Prime itself. Sort of funny it’s the name of the game.

Of all the Metroid games made, this by far had a solid story that would do be great in written book format and does well as a game and possibly even a movie (see link below ). I hope I didn’t spoil anything for anyone because playing it is a lot more rewarding than reading it.

Gameplay: 10 / 10

Now, this is a first Metroid that features a First Person Perspective, which is now dubbed First Person Adventure. Sounds gimmicky, but it actually works in EVERY regard. Grappling hooks, auto lock, strafing, and shooting are easy to pull off. Nothing is left out of place and is well tweaked for optimal game play. The mapping of the buttons on the Gamecube controller are also well thought out and don’t hurt the wrists after long hours of play. I was almost missing the screw-attack since I LOVED that ability so much in Super Metroid, but the fact they added a double-jump was a nice replacement. In Metroid Prime 2, the screw attack is added back into Samus’ array of abilities, without losing the new double jump feature, but that’s a review for another day.

In fact, I had so much fun, it was difficult at times to get me away from playing. Metroid Prime was the SOLE reason I got myself a Gamecube. I loved the other games offered on it, but Metroid has a place in my heart that won’t ever leave. They kept the same feeling from the 2D and moved it towards the 3D realm with no issues at all, at least for me. Even morphing into the ball is REALLY awesome, cool, and plays very well into the environment.

I will make a personal note, if you are the type that doesn’t like to back track your steps A LOT to receive upgrades to your suit and to go to newer, unexplored areas, then this isn’t a game for you. I say this because that aspect is MANDATORY, but for me, very ENJOYABLE. Back tracking could be confusing at times, because you could get lost very easily; however, the map, which is very well implemented, makes navigation easier.

Graphics: 10 / 10

By far, this game takes the Gamecube to another level and pushes the hardware to the limits. Now, I’m not stating that it makes it sluggish, but it does reveal what many thought about the Gamecube. It may not have Halo-esque graphics, but it performs extremely well for such a small machines.

What is a nice addition is that use of graphical effects with the visor. You see Samus’ reflection within the visor, drips of water outside, frozen bursts upon yourself. Everything drips and oozes the characteristics of this fantasy world, making you believe that you are engulfed in this new adventure.

Challenge/Replay Value: 9 / 10

This is a very challenging game, partially due to lots of back-tracking. It may sound like this is a negative aspect, but this is what made the Metroid series shine in my eye. It’s an action/adventure/puzzle/platform game. It’s one heck of a hybrid with a lot of replay value: different endings depend on the percentage of collectibles you get: all those logs you read, databasing every creature, shooting down this and that and finding all those missiles and upgrades for your suit are just some of the things, if not all.

You’ll be greeted with the 100% complete and a true ending for this effort and all done in a run time of less than 12 hours, if my memory serves me right. All in all, this is a collectible in the Nintendo franchise. It’s really cheap now ( used), so it shouldn’t be that much trouble to enjoy a new adventure on the Gamecube that is also playable on Wii.

Oh, one last thing: Metroid Prime Trilogy for Wii is available this August 24th. It is a game featuring all Metroid Prime (1,2,3) titles. This game will enable you to use motion controls, or the original controls, along with some other minor tweaks.

Final note:

Makes me wonder if there is a movie in the works with this commercial . Also, I would say this is a KEEPER, especially since it’s really cheap new or used. You get a ton of mileage for the money you spend, especially if your into this type of game. If you have a Wii, don’t forget the upcoming Metroid Prime Trilogy set. You get all 3 games for and they all make use of the nunchuk and Wii-mote. It’s a thought that I was considering, since I don’t have the 3rd installment, since it’s Wii only.

Get caught up on the entire Metroid storyline (yes, there is one) before you play Other M.
