All we wanna do is eat your brains!
Posted by CoyAndChris in Reviews, Xbox on November 2, 2009
Let me begin by saying I absolutely love Left 4 Dead. There is just something about blasting zombies as you and some friends frantically try to escape each level that makes me smile. For me it’s an incredibly fun game, and now a year later Valve is releasing a sequel! It’s worth mentioning that some fans of the original title were a little less than happy with Valve for coming out with another game so quickly, but in my opinion they have changed enough things and added enough new features to warrant a full release.
Those who pre-ordered the title at a few select retailers were given the chance to Read the rest of this entry »

Before you start, I’d like to point you Chris’ AWESOME review. To avoid repeating things and thus being extremely lame and boring, you can check out his review to get the low down. I was the second guinea pig of this experiment and have had some similar findings along with some sleepless nights. Having fresh breath and the energy to be up all night long does have it’s advantages.

BreakingTheGame’s Product Testing – Vroom Foods, Inc.
Posted by CoyAndChris in Non Videogame on October 20, 2009
About two weeks ago Kiki contacted me and inquired if I’d like to try out some samples of an “energy product” and post up a review for BTG. Of course I agreed, I’m a caffeine addict. I love my coffee and sodas, and without the occasional Red Bull or Monster in the morning at work I’d be drowsy at my desk and dead to the world.
A few days later in the mail I received a package direct from Vroom Foods, Inc. On the outside of the packaging, in big bold letters, exclaimed that the parcel contained “SERIOUSLY CAFFEINATED!® Contents”. Prior to this review I had Read the rest of this entry »

Arcade Feed: Bust-a-Move Live!
Posted by Scratch in Arcade Feed, BTG on October 1, 2009
This week in Xbox Live Arcade –
Bust-a-Move Live makes it’s way to the Xbox Live Arcade this week. I can’t really say it any better than they did on xbox.com - Bust-A-Move returns, with its original gameplay still intact: Fire bubbles at the bubble clusters on each stage to destroy them! That’s it. It’s simple and addictive. It’s similar to Zuma and very similar to a flash and cell phone game called snood. Bust-A-Move is also known as Puzzle Bobble since it stars your favorite Bubble Bobble characters. This time the baddies are already encased in a bubble and it’s up to you to match up the colors and clear the board before they fall below the line above your bubble launching machine. It’s a very simplistic style of gameplay and very addictive. So addictive in fact, I thought the demo was too short and ended up buying it. If you’re a puzzle fan this is for you.

Posted by Scratch in Arcade Feed, Contests, I thought this was cool on September 29, 2009
The mayor of Behemoth Town has announced that they are kicking it into top gear with their Necromantic DLC giveaway. Now is the time where you head over to the dev blog and find out how you can become a Necromantic DLC owner. They have around 2000 codes to give away, so there are plenty of chances to win. Not many companies take the time to do this on such a large scale so be sure to take advantage of it. I’ll give you head start…..follow them on twitter. 
Also you can check out our experience in the game. There’s a code at the end of it and I never recieved a message from anyone saying they got it. Who knows maybe it still works. Let us know if you get it.
