Halo: Reach Trailer/Disection

The new video for Halo: Reach.

Disection:  What I’ve gotten so far from this is that these are possibly Spartan III’s, due to the one man’s E.V.A. helmet.  I’ve also gotten three names so far

Rune Of Red’s RESPONSIBLE Gift Giving Guide: Xbox 360

Hi everybody, I thought I’d post a gift guide for people to give video game gifts suitable for their ages.  This guide is for the xbox 360.  Some games may not be available on other platform. With that, let’s get to it.

NOTE:  If you feel differently, that is your own opinion which I respect.

Gifts For Everyone:

Forza Motorsport 3

Forza Motorsport 3

Forza Motosport 3 is rated Everyone

This game is not just fun for kids, I found Forza 2 very fun as well, and this is just as good, if not better, than its previous iteration.

If you want a realistic driving game, this is for you.

Madden NFL 10
Madden NFL 10

Madden NFL 10 is rated Everyone

This years model of the most famous Football sim.  There is not much new brought to the game,

however, a football game is always a good buy.  There is also Fifa Soccer 10, NBA Live 10, NHL 10, and Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10.

LEGO Indiana Jones 2
Lego Indiana Jones 2

Lego Indiana Jones 2 is rated Everyone

When I first played the first Lego Indiana Jones when my nephew was over I had thoughts that this would be a gimmick.

I was wrong.  I loved it, and it’s fun for both adults and kids to play.  This game includes all 4 movies and is very family friendly.

Gifts for Pre-teens, Teens:

Batman:  Arkham Asylum

Batman:  Arkham Asylum

Batman:  Arkham Asylum is rated Teen

This game, coming out in wake of “The Dark Knight”  Combines all that you love about the Batman fiction.

An excellent game for teenagers and Batman fans.

Marvel:  Ultimate Alliance 2

Marvel:  Ultimate Alliance 2

Marvel:  Ultimate Alliance 2 is rated Teen.

The sequel to one of the best games of last year, any fans of the marvel universe will enjoy this as it takes place during the Marvel Civil War.

Games for Adults:

Call Of Duty:  Modern Warfare 2

Call Of Duty:  Modern Warfare 2

Call Of Duty:  Modern Warfare 2 is rated Mature

The continuation of Call Of Duty 4, the sequel follows up with an amazing storyline and great soundtrack by Hans Zimmer.

NOTE: This game has come under controversy due to one of it’s levels.  The game gives you the choice before even starting the game

to skip the level.  This game has what some may describe as disturbing images, so ensure this purchase is for mature young adults at the very least.

Borderlands

Borderlands

Borderlands is rated Mature

Borderlands is a wacky, addictive game that is unique to it’s own nature.

Assassins Creed II

Assassins Creed II

Assassins Creed II is rated Mature

The sequel to the amazing rpg, Assassins Creed II builds and improves upon it’s prototype.  A personal favorite by me.

Halo 3:  ODST

Halo 3:  ODST

Halo 3:  ODST is rated Mature

The latest game from Bungie, this game follows the story of an ODST squad in the events on New Mombasa between

Halo 2 and Halo 3.  A very fun game coming from firsthand experience, a recommendation comes solid from me.

Left 4 Dead 2

Left 4 Dead 2

Left 4 Dead 2 is rated M for Mature

The sequel to the surprise hit of last year, this brings the classic zombie game down south.  Great 4-player game.

Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 special edition xbox 360

Add comment September 16, 2009

Oh how I love/hate technological progression

Today, on 1up, I saw that a 250 gigabyte xbox 360 is availible.  Of course it’s for the new blockbuster, Call of Duty:  Modern Warfare 2, due out November 10th, 2009 (11/10/09…like a bomb, get it? right.)  Now I love the forward progression of technology, but I also hate the cost of that progression.  I believe it’s safe to say that everyone else feels the same way about that as well.  With that, here we go into another feature.

Why I love technological progression.

The world thrives on progression as it also thrives on technology.  These two things combined are like the reese’s peanut butter cup:  Amaaaazing.  Look at today’s technology:  We have the iPhone, the consoles, mini-laptops (I hate them, they’re not a real laptop, just like a chihuahua [HOLY COW I SPELLED THAT RIGHT ON THE FIRST TRY!] isn’t a dog.  Cute, but it’s a luppie, like a chihuahua is a puppie.), new phones that make what looked nice 2 years ago look dumb, and many other things.  With each progression, life has the option of becoming a little easier (though I will always want some activities, like driving cars and such).  The forward progression of technology, to me, is the monument of creativity of mankind, time infinitum.

Why I hate technological progression.

Do you remember when you were a kid and money grew on trees and you could get the pokemon games for each type of Game Boy?  Yeah, me too.  Turns out money doesn’t grow on trees.  The forward progression of technology is great, however the cost of moving forward also hurts the hobbyist and/or professional.  I can tell you for a fact I will not be able to get this 250GB HDD because I don’t have enough money, simply.  I probably won’t even be able to get Halo:  ODST right away (Insert Sad Face Here).  I know I’m not the only one, people are having to trim back, and it feels like a taunt towards those affected by the recession.

Short feature today, movie of the new system will be up right after this is posted.  as always, email me @ rune@runeofred.com as for me, it is now time for homework. Wait till you boys and girls see what I’ve been doing. heh.
