Dragon Age

Today is the day of Dragon Age: Origins.  The TV spots are pretty neat but onfortunately are following the bad trend of not showing any game play.  Halo has reached the point where its not neccesary, they just run spots to get the fan base fired up and talking and also to make it look interesting enough for non Halo people to ask about it.  But the best show on network TV has finally been discovered and is being utilized properly, Big Bang Theory.  If you haven't seen that show yet, you are a masochist and just hate yourself.  But back to the point, they are very effectively targeting the audience in commercials with video game ads, and for the people that haven't already pre-ordered games may need to see just a few features or game footage to tip them over the edge to go ahead and buy it.  At least there is something to do with the game and not just people talking about odd situations that never happen, nor are they even plausible.

Halloween

Just a little last minute update. C4 Gaming will be closing at sunset (7:30) and everyone will get an all day pass for only $8 due to the shortened schedule. Have fun tomorrow and don't eat candy from Marco.

O.D.S.T.

Today is the last day of no O.D.S.T.  Midnight tonight it will be available and by tomorrow afternoon, spoilers, cheats, exploits and map hacks will be on YouTube.  Be sure and check out the forums and hook up with other C-4 Gamers on Xbox Live.  On another, much sader note, C-4 Gaming will be closed this weekend.  And it's not because I will be locked in my house all weekend playing O.D.S.T. either.

Back to School

School's back in session for most of you, if not all.  Now's a good time sit back and reflect on yet another wasted Summer.  Think about all the stuff you didn't do, and how great it was.  Be sure and tell your friends about the good times had at C4, and then trick them into going so you can get in and get snacks for free.  But not this weekend though, sorry.  C4 Gaming will be closed this weekend.  The forums will still be open, unless the health inspector catches wind of the place.  

Battlefield is HERE!

In what's called a stealth launch, Battlefield: Heroes is now available.  Who can blame them for launching it so quietly after the problems with 1943.  Heroes is like a mix of Team Fortress 2 graphics, Combat Arms pay for items, and Savage over the shoulder camera.  Come check it out.  Also, get your Halo 3 skills honed.  A big tournament is coming.  Concrete details will be posted soon, but keep October 3rd open.
