I'm going to start posting reviews every now and then. Originally I posted reviews on a regular basis but then stopped and I had to write a new review to keep my GS Top 500 review emblem which is why I wrote the Prince of Persia review last month. I'll probably write reviews for 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand, Afro Samurai and possibly Matt Hazard: Eat Lead. Obviously 50 Cent and Afro Samurai aren't great games that need further breakdown and analysis but I'm kind of in the mood in rag on something since they're both meh games. I just started Matt Hazard today and while the writing and concept are quite good it doesn't help keep the game enjoyable since the combat is boring and wonky.

Also in the upcoming months a site I'm going to be contributing to is going to launch. A fellow GS member is involved and is working on the site and it's going to be quite cool. I'm hoping people here will check it out and perhaps spend some of their time on the site since GS has been a bit crap. I'll of course post updates when the site is getting closer to launch.

Being a game collector I like to occasionally browse for Press Kits. Not only are these cool since they often feature additional content and gorgeous packaging but they're rare due to the costs of production and who they're given to. So far I've been lucky to aquire 2 press kits: a God of War 2 kit which comes in a massive box and includes a dvd walkthrough disc of the first level and an extremely nice leather bound Warhawk art book which is my favorite so far. I also own 2 E3 ShowDaily's from E3 2005 and the extremely nice Konami/Kojima Productions spoof Show Maybe which was given out at E3 2006. In my recent browsing for kits I came across one for Tekken 4 which caught my eye for the outrageous price it's going for: $1,800/GBP 1,000. Here's the link: http://cgi.ebay.com/Tekken-4-Promo-Press-Kit-Edt-Brand-New-and-Ultra-Rare_W0QQitemZ220285071375QQcmdZViewItem?hash=item220285071375&_trksid=p3286.m63.l1177

This seller must be hoping that someone buys this who doesn't know better or the seller is just dillusional. I think even a hardcore Tekken fan wouldn't pay that price. Sure it's a nice kit but it doesn't reach the production quality of the Sony kits. But to be honest I would be tempted to pay triple figures for the Wipeout HD kit since that's a prize possession since it feature the game on Blu-ray, although you may not be able to play it on a standard PS3. If I could get my hands on the Uncharted kit that would make me a happy gamer.
