E3 Impressions: Part II

continued from E3 Impressions: Part I…

Gran Turismo 5

Freaking awesome. It sets the bar. Driving mechanics, everything. They’ve taken a long time, which pisses off gamers when they take a long time to release, but usually when they do that the creators take their time to make the game good. Doesn’t always work that way, like with Alpha Protocol which got pushed back 8 months but averaged maybe 6 out of 10. It sucked that they took such a long time but it’s cool that they are getting people that like any type of motorsport like rally and Nascar and those people are going to enjoy it. The rally is my favorite. Others might enjoy street racing. They are tapping into all markets. Haven’t heard about customization where Forza has had the edge when it comes to multiplayer, community where you are able to auction off your cars but your design. Damage is good, looks good, physics look good.

E3 Impressions: Part I

Interview with in-house gamer freestyle18

So, what did you find most exciting at E3?

The main thing I’m excited about is Deus Ex. I think that is going to bring together what most people are looking for, especially MGS fans and Deus Ex fans. It’s going to incorporate aspects of both games. It’s going to combine. Probably one of the most underrated games out there.

Underrated? How so?

Well, I’m not saying people aren’t excited. But Halo, Gears of War, Gran Turismo, we’ve seen new iterations a lot more frequently. Deus Ex holds a special spot in a lot of gamers. It’s holds the spot of being one of the greatest games of all time. It’s finally getting a proper sequel from the developers and we should all be excited.

PS3 Laptop Mod!

The guy who brought us the Xbox 360 case mod has done it again, this time with a PS3. Behold:

A great idea or another silly modification?

Remember: Winter LAN Party ’07 video!

Hi guys, we were going through our archives when we found this gem:

It is footage from the Bald Hound Frag Winter LAN Party ’07 which took place in Idaho Falls, Idaho.

A lot of people showed up so we networked 4 or 5 Xbox 360s for a fantastic Halo 3 tournament where everyone got in on the action. We hooked up a PS3 to a projector for some Resistance: Fall of Man, and enjoyed some Gears of War, F.E.A.R. combat, and Starcraft as well.

Our fridges were stocked with BAWLZ and pizza was provided courtesy of some very nice folks!

Welcome to… the BHF Blog!

Howdy, we are getting back on our feet with a blog. Bald Hound Frag is going through some major changes as you can see, but we will keep you informed as we develop the new Bald Hound Frag concept.
