Go to hell Dungeon Maker!

ok, first of all, I'd like to say that I am a huge Wii and Ds fan, I am NOT a nintendo fanboy, but I just really like the consoles. HOWEVER I get rather angry when I hear people ignorantly refer to them as kiddie consoles....

Anyway my brother has Dungeon Maker on psp, its a pretty cool game that mixes elements of Dungeon Master and Diablo, basically you build a dungeon, it gets populated by monsters, you go in and hunt monsters... sounds fun? it is.. it's got a cool serious themed look to it, and the combat is like I said, Diablo style (i.e. realtime)

Sooo.. I find out this game is coming to ds.. this gets me excited.. it's out.. so I get my hands on it, lucky me. Now the boxart has me worried, its all anime and childish. I like neither. It doesnt matter too much, theres plenty of crappy looking games that are great fun so I start playing. Oh god help me... the story is terrible and so obviously directed to children... but not just children, retarded children. But again, I dont care, I just want to build dungoens and Diablo crawl them (I just invented that term, yay me, it means dungeon crawl in Diablo style :) )
Soo.. I'm in town.. the interface is kinda like that of the original psp version, just colorful and all the shopkeepers are little girls begging to be tenticle raped, not too bad. Once all the parts are purchased I'm off to the cave to start building my dungeon! Again, the anime look kinda gets to me, but its actually not that bad.. the gameplay so far feels right.. I walk to a wall, dig at it, and form a room, keep digging and form a hallway.. put in some furniture to make it a specific type of room to attract monsters the next day... ok I'm going to enjoy this I think!!
Done building, I run out of energy so I rest for the day.. next day comes and I'm eager to Diablo crawl my dungeon! So I quickly get my shopping out of the day and rush off to the rooms where the monsters should be.. oh look some sort of bat! yay! wait a second.. whats my attack button? perhaps when I engage a tutorial will tell me, so I run at the bat.. then it happens.. my character stands still, the bat flys into me and a turn based battle is engaged... WHAT?! wheres my bloody diablo crawling?!

anyway I would have plenty of swearing and cursing to do if i hadnt already vented out on a friend (thanks leero applewuss!!) so I'll spare you. but basically I'm pissed off that the company behind the ds version of Dungeon maker would go trough such efforts to actually make the ds version childish and crappy! dont get me wrong I like turn based combat but it's not for this game.. this was meant to be a Diablo crawl!! It's games like this that give the sony fanboys and general nintendo haters ammo when they want to say the wii and ds are kiddie consoles.. DAMN YOU!!!

old news but...

well this isnt anything new, but for those of you who didnt know...

Area 51 is an awesome first person shooter released for pc/xbox/ps2. its got a great creepy single player and is awesome.. and was released for free recently-ish.

It's sadly not legible for CaG review because its not low spec enough, BUT it is free, so it deserves mention.. if your a gamer with a good pc who just likes free games, do NOT miss out on this beauty :)

Hey everyone.. i've been away for a while and left you cheap ass episodeless.. sorry about that..

its been 4 weeks and i have my reasons!

Well my girlfriend and love of my life has been here for 3 months, and was leaving to britain, so for 2 weeks cheap ass gamer was a little less important to me then spending time with her, hope you can understand. After that i moved out of the apartment we shared together but forgot about getting a new internet connection at the new place.. and that.. well.. took 2 weeks to do.. and it was the most boring 2 weeks of my life... Anyway i have an episode coming up soon! i promise!
