Mortal Kombat vs DC: Joker Fatality
Firstly: I have kinda stolen this from Digg as it appeared on my iGoogle this morning, but i thought to myself I should share and share alike because I think it is definately worth a look.
If you have been reading (I still have the feeling that no one comes here, but the page views seem to go up, so thats good news for me), you will notice that I am quite an avid Batman fan. It may also be known that I wasn’t a big fan of Heath Ledger’s protrayal of the Joker in Batman: The Dark Knight (I don’t care what you say, it just wasn’t for me!).
But after noticing this little tid-bit on my Digg gaming feed this morning my admiration for the Clown Prince of Crime has been restored.
Take a look here to see what the Joker’s comedy Bang! flag gun fatality looks like (the ‘video’ is a gif so it may be a bit jittery at first, so give it time to load…).
If, like me you like both DC and MK this game sounds like something you may buy if it was £20 and there was nothing else around, but other than that doesnt really seem worth full PS3 price for a fighting game… They are just too repetitive and although the shiny graphics are very nice, I would rather play a MK game with someone else (who bought it) that go out and buy it then play it single player.
Anyway, click the link (here it is again incase you missed it) and have a good laugh and see how the joker should really be done!
10 things I hate about FIFA 2008
This post probably seems very random when you think that it is the second half of 2008 so that means that there is the next installment of FIFA that must be on its way, at the very latest in time for Christmas.
But its not. Over the summer, I have been kinda of stuck in due to me not having a car anymore and wanting to earn some money for uni in September, so as you are probably aware by now, I trundle off to work 9-5, Monday to Friday, and I don’t really do much then after work for the above reasons (and the fact that only me and my girlfriend were only people who really moved away from our other friends so they don’t seem to bother with us much since we left last September).

Brainwashed by ASCII
My friend Stef and I agree that graphics are certainly not everything when it comes to playing games. Our friend Matt doesn’t agree, unless the game is in HD with ‘bloom‘ effects everywhere and even the tiniest graphical options turned up to the point his laptop melts or his PS3 catches fire, he won’t even consider playing it. He is what is know as, in our circle at least, a graphics whore.
No, he doesn’t sleep with people for money, and no, he doesn’t sleep with people for graphics even though that’s what this moniker may suggest. He just likes high-spec graphics in games a lot. This often surfaces in our chats about gaming (hey, we are computer science students, what do you expect us to talk about? Girls? pfft.) as the phrase “Yeah, but just look at the graphics!”.
Sometimes this is him proclaiming his love for the “realistic” people on screen and sometimes this is him brushing away these games like dirt off his shoulder.
More fool him I say.
The underdog has telekinesis
I am a big Final Fantasy fan. I have played most of them and also own quite a few of them too (I - PSX, II - PSX, III - DS, VII - PSX, VIII - PSX & PC, IX - PSX, X - PS2, X2 - PS2, XI - PC and XII - PS2) so I am greatly anticipating the worldwide (stops the Japanese completing it months before I get to put it in my console) release of the next installment - FFXIII.
