http://www.firstpersonshouter.com A PC Gaming Blog Fri, 16 Apr 2010 16:39:48 +0000 http://backend.userland.com/rss092 en A couple weeks ago I sat down to write a post about Just Cause 2. I wanted to talk about the fun, silly nature of the combat and violence in the game without writing a proper review (something I don't feel I'm particularly good at). I eventually decided to present the ... http://www.firstpersonshouter.com/?p=1027 The Panau Stately Bugle Newspaper Metro Section D Page 23-24 The Panau Police Blotter Incident Date: 3/20/10 Incident Time: 3:12pm Incident Location: Rumah Hartawan Incident Description: Domestic disturbance.

Incident ... http://www.firstpersonshouter.com/?p=1007 So, I've been playing with Just Cause 2. Not playing it, but playing with it.  Apart from completing the two introductory missions, I have not played Just Cause 2: the game. The fifteen hours I've spent have been with Just Cause 2: the toy. And it's quite a toy. Mind-bogglingly huge, ... http://www.firstpersonshouter.com/?p=987 Just a quickie post to pimp my friend's new business: hand-made steel mousepads. I got mine the other day, and it is pure hot-rolled steel gaming sweetness. It's lovely and heavy and works great, plus he custom-stamped with my battle-cry. At least, I'd like that to be my battle-cry. It's rare that ... http://www.firstpersonshouter.com/?p=982 Welcome to a new feature on First-Person Shouter: How Mad Should I Get? Today's topic: Bioshock 2 DLC. Downloadable content will be made available soon beginning with the Sinclair Solutions Test Pack, available this March from the Xbox® LIVE Marketplace for the Xbox 360® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft and ... http://www.firstpersonshouter.com/?p=962 STALKER: Call of Pripyat is, at its core, a rather clunky affair. The inventory screen is ancient in design. The map completely sucks and is hard to use. Most of the often vague information from the largely unmemorable NPCs is imparted in blocks of text, and what isn't is presented ... http://www.firstpersonshouter.com/?p=729 This is a diary about STALKER: Call of Pripyat.  There aren't really any plot or story spoilers here; I've done my best to be generic in terms of describing this particular situation I found myself in.  There are some details about some of the gameplay features of the STALKER games, ... http://www.firstpersonshouter.com/?p=687 Hey, so, I have this little Oblivion blog that I update roughly once a century, and I have gone and updated it. With an update! If you're not familiar with Living In Oblivion, where I play The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion in the guise of a lowly NPC,  here's the start. I'd apologize ... http://www.firstpersonshouter.com/?p=684 I'll be straight-up with y'all because that's how I roll: I have no idea how to review a racing game. I can't think of any racing games I've owned, though I've probably played dozens of them over the years, usually at a friend's, usually not for very long, because I'm not ... http://www.firstpersonshouter.com/?p=667 From Resident Evil 5 -- click for larger. Just a reminder: when you're at a fancy dress party and a zombie tries to surprise buttsecx you and you're forced to kick him in the head without turning around, make sure your face shows no discernible expression.  It's called manners, people. http://www.firstpersonshouter.com/?p=665
