by Mike Steele on Feb.27, 2010, under Industry news, personal thoughts, podcast

People, People, People!!! We are BACK this week with another one of the sexiest podcast’s that will ever tickle your ears with it’s sweet vocal honey, THATS RIGHT! The Jake and Mike Videogame show, Episode 24, is in the house!

This week we have more games than you can shake a stick at to talk about, and that must be a shit load of games because shaking a stick is very easy, am I right?! But somehow, we managed to pack the podcast with even more than that, so you can thank us later. We talk about my thoughts on the new game Dante’s Inferno as well as 3rd person action games in general, but thats not all, we also talk about demonic nipples! How can you pass that up?!

We also go into our thoughts on Aliens Vs Predator and Bioshock 2 and why we either dislike them or like them, and then we use words ro express those points and facts and opinions to back them up. Yuuuuup, some really cutting edge stuff we’re trying here at the Jake and mike VGS, so give it a listen and if you like what you hear, takes your clothes off and check us out on Itunes and pop-Droid.com

A simpler time (a post about things and AVP)

by Jake Sprague on Feb.09, 2010, under Industry news, personal thoughts, rant

I was sort of disappointed when I first played the Aliens vs. Predator demo, and just to clarify I mean the new AVP that is coming out in a few days. I wasn’t feeling the game at first, it felt dated. Then I got to play some more of it with Mike and I am starting to really enjoy it. It does feel sort of dated but in a good way, it reminds me of Quake 2.

If you were lucky enough to get to play Quake 2 in its hay-day you may know what I am talking about. The feeling that every kill doesn’t really matter that much, the feeling that you and your friends are just having fun, the feeling of laughing when you get killed and then saying “I’m coming after you next!” This game feels like that too me. I don’t know if maybe it feels like that because I miss that kind of game experience or if it’s because it is deliberately made like an old school PC FPS but I do know that I like it and I am getting pretty excited for AVP.

AVP has some really cool stuff going on in the demo, being a marine is frightening at times, hearing your radar start to go crazy as multiple aliens come at you from the ceiling is awesome. Being a predator and finding your plasma cannon for the first time is incredible, and yes, just like an old school shooter there are weapons on the ground for marines and predators (even health packs). Then there is the Alien moments where you hide in the shadows or on a wall watching a predator and marine fighting, just waiting for the perfect time to run in and eat the survivor. From what I have played so far this game has a lot going for it and feels pretty balanced for a game with three very different classes. I am counting the days until it gets released.

Okay well i’m not literally counting the days or anything but I am getting excited for it. Look, don’t get all high and mighty like you are really counting the days or something. No one counts days. Lets just leave it at that. Oh so now you really count days?!? Well good for you, count all the fucking days, see if I care!!

PS I’m sorry about saying fuck earlier. I don’t know what I was thinking. I’m just going through a lot right now and I lost my cool. So again I’m sorry. Do you for give me? You do? Well that means a lot coming from you.
