I just don’t know about this new trailer, but for some reason it still made me laugh. Maybe its the horses in the future. Horses! I hope we can make the horses attack, like the dogs! I miss the dogs.  The biggest Entertainment event of the year is always the release of a new Call of Duty game. Here’s the shiny new trailer for Call of Duty: Black Ops 2! The new installment will take place in the future. I miss killing Nazis.

Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions, Breaks Michelle’s Heart!

Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions Review

Spider-Man Shattered Dimensions was on my must play list of games for the fall season. One of the producers of the game gave me an Eyes On Demo earlier this year and I’ve tracked the game’s progress since that time. I loved Web of Shadows from a few years back, but hated all the other Spider-Man games because I’m not a fan of Open World Sandbox games. Web of Shadows does a fantastic job of blending Open World mechanics with story driven narrative, I never felt lost or like everything was pointless and the web combat and web swinging was pretty tight.

Shattered Dimensions was supposed to bring the best elements of Web of Shadows, while bringing something new, namely the idea of play four different versions of Spider-Man. Beenox – The developers, do a fantastic job of making the worlds – Noir, Ultimate, 2099 and Amazing feel really distinct from one another in terms of look but they dropped the ball on the most basic things and that’s Spider-Man’s powers. While I don’t like Sandbox games, I’m forced to admit Spider-Man is a character where it’s a necessity.

Spider-man Shattered Dimensions is finally Out! Michelle Interviews One of the Producers!

Spider-Man Shattered Dimensions Preview

Spider-man Shattered Dimensions first hit my radar earlier this year when I got an advanced eyes on look at Wonder Con, in August (on my Birthday, ironically enough) I had the chance to attend Activision’s Gamer’s Day event in New York and get some hands on time with it.  Activision, was annoying though because they wouldn’t let us take any video of the event and we had to adhere to so many different embargo dates that I threw my hands up and decided to wait until this week to start posting impressions.  The game is available for all platforms today. Check out this Exclusive Interview with one of the Producers. You can see my quick impressions after the break.

Guitar Hero Warriors Full Set List Released. Michelle is Underwhelmed.

Posted by   on August 18, 2010

in Video Games

I used to love me some plastic instruments but I have to say, I’m just not excited about Guitar Hero Warriors of Rock or Rock Band. I think there’s a finite number of hits you can squeeze onto these games and with the thousand+ songs (combined) available in the Rock Band and Guitar Hero stores I think we pretty much already have most of the songs that would be worth playing. I will say, I’m really curious about the Piano/Keytar additions to both games. Activision has released the full set 90+ song set list. Of that list, I recognize maybe 9 tracks. Take a gander after the break.

The more I hear about Shattered Dimensions, the more I can’t wait to play it at Activision’s upcoming NY.  Neil Patrick Harris will reprise his role as Spider-Man in Activision’s  upcoming Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions, which is currently being showcased at San Diego Comic-Con.  In the game, players traverse through four unique worlds from Spider-Man lore and take on the role of four distinctly different Spider-Men – Amazing, Ultimate, Noir and 2099 – which will be brought to life by Neil Patrick Harris along with Josh Keaton, Christopher Daniel Barnes and Dan Gilvezan, respectively.

Comic Con 2010: Spiderman Shattered Dimensions Final World Revealed – Ultimates (Shocking, I know)

Posted by   on July 22, 2010

in Video Games

Activision has revealed the fourth and final dimension for Spiderman Shattered Dimensions. It’s Ultimates, so the four different parts of the game include Current Universe, 2099, Noir and Ultimates. Everything I’ve seen from the game looks pretty amazing. I’m going to be spending a day with Activision in New York in a few weeks (ironically, on my birthday) and will have some live video and interviews about the game.

Still have Mapathy? More Call of Duty Maps Coming!

Posted by   on May 13, 2010

in Video Games

The first set of new Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 Maps didn’t  solve our severe case of Mapathy, so the Doctors at Activision have given us an appointment for June 3rd to give us another shot in the arm with a brand new set of Maps with The Call of Duty®: Modern Warfare® 2 Resurgence Pack. Featuring five maps, the Resurgence Pack follows on the heels of the record-setting Call of Duty®: Modern Warfare® 2 Stimulus Package of maps.  Additionally, to celebrate the upcoming release, Infinity Ward will host two Double XP weekends. The first Double XP will take place beginning Friday, May 28, and the second will follow on Friday, June 4. The last pack just came out, so this is a fast turnaround.
