For those that don't know, last weekend I went to a video games expo called eGames. It's basically our version of E3, where they have the latest and unreleased games on display and fully playable.

Yahtzee who does Zero Punctuation was there, even though I didn't get to meet him in person I saw him a couple of times on a stage that they set up. Once when he was wasting time with two other nobodys while they were setting up some Guitar Hero stuff, and another where he was hosting a video game quiz thing.

There was also a fire that apparently happened somewhere in the building. I was just sitting there playing games when I noticed everyone going outside, I ignored it and kept playing and some guy told me I had to go outside. Nothing like 500 nerds standing outside in a parking lot. We were out there for about 5 minutes and then we went back inside.

Anyway, on to the games.

Wario Land: The Shake Dimension
Plays pretty much exactly like the old Wario Land games that were on Gameboy. Side scrolling, jumping, shoulder bashing is still intact, with the addition of a couple of new features like a punch-your-fist-against-the-ground attack and picking up stuff and shaking it, both preformed by shaking the Wiimote.

Mirror's Edge
I didn't exactly know the controls for this, so I pretty much tried to figure them out on my own. Which didn't really work out so well, so I was constantly falling off buildings and eating a lot of barbed wire fences. It is good though to finally see a first person adventure game.

Little Big Planet
I had the most fun out of the possible 40 games that I played that day playing this. Sure at first it looks like a 10 year olds game, but it's really fun and very humorous. I recommend this for anyone that owns a PS3. The only criticism is that the jumping isn't all too good, you can hardly jump to where you want to go which causes you to frequently die.

Gears of War 2
I only got to play a couple of rounds of this, I pretty much treated it like the first game and it seemed to handle basically the same. I did lose on one round because I forgot what the chainsaw button was and I got chainsawed by some kid.

Pure
Pure is the best racing game that i've played in years. Every other racing game is too realistic for their own good and soon as you hit a wall you're done, but this is anything but that. You race with four wheeled motorcycles, use boost and preform tricks. You're rewarded with boost by preforming tricks, the more boost you have the better tricks you can preform. There's four levels of tricks and each one takes longer to preform, so you gotta watch yourself on some of the higher levels.

Buzz! TV Quiz
I've never played a Buzz game before this one, because i've always thought it was too expensive. Looks like i've been missing out, I had a lot of fun with this one and I was very impressed with the character animations.

Fallout 3
This is the last game that I played of the day. I'm familiar with this because i've watched a friend of mine play a little of it. I pretty much just wandered around, killed two dog things and some flying robot that exploded in my face.

There was a ton of other shitty games, but I won't mention them because they were just horrible to play.
Overall is was a pretty good day, i'm rather pleased with how it went.

And now, stuff that i'm up to.
I'm working on two movies at the moment. One is The Carbonwater Show ep.4, and the other is for Bill Murray week which is happening during 7th-14th of December.
