A Spore Nerd Corner

The day I've been dreading for oh so long has finally arrived.  That's right the final DLC for Borderlands 2 is on it's way. I can't tell you how much I've enjoyed all the DLCs for Borderlands and think it's a shame that it's all coming to an end, but all great things do I guess. The name of the DLC is Sir Hammerlock vs. the Son of Crawmerax.  It's set on an abandoned island resort, Hammerlock has been kidnapped and it's up to us to save him. It's set to be  released on April 15 for $2.99.  If you go back threw my blog you can see info on most of the past downloadable content. In a more positive note Borderlands 2 is headed to the Vita, but not until sometime this spring.

As much as we all hate it, we just have to accept that on launch all games comes with problems, Batman Origins is no exception.  But in this wonderful age of everything being connected to the net, and endless patching it's not as big of a problem. Sure you'll end up sitting around day after day downloading a new patch to fix yet another game killing bug, but at least the game works.  The only real problem is when the game makers decide they don't want to patch the game and that's what the makers of Batman Origins have done. Warner Brothers Games Montreal has recently said: "The team is currently working hard on the upcoming story DLC and there currently are no plans for releasing another patch to address the issues that have been reported on the forums,"  I don't know about you but I think I would rather have a game that works right than have more story that May or may not run right. I think this just goes to show yet another game company that cares ...

The latest Square Enix JRPG, Bravely Default, has his the 3DS and I'm addicted. So far I'm having a blast. It has a large world to explore, something so many games are missing nowadays, I actually feel like I'm not on some set out path with only the illusion of the ability to explore. Also threw the game your characters gain new professions, all the ones from past Final Fantasy games that we've all grown to know and love letting us customize the characters abilities. Another great add to the game is how it gives you a chance to (re)build your own town, giving you access to better gear and skills. The biggest downfall of the game is the voice acting. It sounds like they are trying to hard and after awhile it gets on my nerves and takes away from the story. If you're looking for a good JRPG to eat up your  time for the 3DS this is one to pick up.

The all multiplayer arena shooter Loadout was just recently released.  The game it's self reminds me of Team Fortress 2. It gives you different modes, everything from capture the hammer, basically capture the flag only with a giant hammer you can crush people with. It also has classics like team death match, and capture positions on the map. The best part of the game is the weapon customizing.  It lets you rip apart your guns and rebuild them giving them new barrels, changing the clip type, electricity shot, fire shot, and healing powers. You can change the gun from standard old bullets to a ray gun, rockets to a bunch of other things. It's worth checking it out just for that. Also to change up your weapon you don't have to spend real money, it's all done with in game currency, which is one of my favorite things.  The character you play is customizable as well, but take real money to change up. On launch the game has had some issues with a lot of crashing, and fin...
