Need for Speed Rivals - E3 Demo

Need for Speed Rivals is the newest iteration of the popular EA racing franchise.  I had the opportunity to play the demo while at E3 on the PS4.  The NFSR demo area had three bays, with each bay comprising of three cops and three racers.  For you non math majors out there, including me, there were a total of nine racers and nine police officers.  The nine racers can go about their business competing in various races while the police officers can initiate a police chase at any time.  This is a pretty cool feature implemented into NFSR.

New Wii U Bundle Coming Soon

Good things come for those who wait.Are you still on the fence about buying the newest Nintendo console?  Well, Nintendo hopes to help make your decision in their favor with a new Wii U bundle available Sunday February 17th.  The exclusive bundle entitled, The Wii U ZombiU Deluxe Set, will include a Deluxe Wii U (32GB), a Pro Controller, a copy of ZombiU with an art book and developer commentary, a download of Nintendo Land and enrollment in the Deluxe Digital Promotion.  The MSRP for the new bundle is $390.  Since launching last November, Nintendo has sold 3 million Wii U units.  I can only imagine Nintendo is trying to attract gamers to their system before the potential unveiling of both the PS3 and XBOX 360 successors in the coming weeks.  Will you be going out and purchasing this new bundle, are you still hesitant on shelling out your hard earned money on a system that is losing exclusive rights to video games (Rayman Legends), or are you content without having the Wii U in your collection?

Borderlands 2 Review

Shoot.  Loot.  Repeat.
 
After playing the crap out of the original Borderlands, I have been anxiously waiting to get back to the world of Pandora.  Gearbox and 2K Games have created a sequel in a way sequel's are supposed to be made, it's better.  Borderlands 2 improves in every aspect over its predecessor making it a truly enjoyable experience.  Fans of the original will no doubt want to check out the sequel.  If you never played the original Borderlands, that is okay, you can still jump in with two feet.  If you are a fan of shooters and loot driven games, do yourself a favor and buy Borderlands 2, you will not be disappointed.
