A Spore Nerd Corner

So where we go, what do you want first. The good news or the bad news? Oh what the heck lets start down and work our way up. After all it's always better to end on a happy note. Bioshock Infinite, the game we have been waiting for what seems like years has been pushed back yet again. This time it's been pushed back to March 26, 2013.  Ken Levine, the creative director told IGN this time it's been put back for "primarily polish and bug fixing." He also said that they could have shipped the game the game this February but it just wasn't what the fans deserve. At this point I think they may be building this game up for nothing but a failure. I know I've been looking forward to the game for awhile now and when I keep hearing about all the polish they are putting on, I'm expecting one darn good game. It's going to have a lot to live up to. Now for the good news. Another game that's been pushed back a couple time now has finally reached the Itune...

Baldur's Gate ISO Delay So I've been waiting for Baldur's Gate to drop and it did.... kinda. While it did drop for the PC those us waiting for it on the Ipad are going to have to wait for who knows how long. The game was supposed to drop today but a fatal crash bug was found so they are going to have to resubmit to Apple. Rumors say that the game will be out on the 30th but I wouldn't hold my breath. Bungies New Game So the company that brought us Halo, and for us older player Marathon, have released info on their next title, Destiny.  The story begins about 700 years from now, after humanity reaches it's highest point, when a ship the size of the moon enters into orbit around Earth. Soon after aliens come to earth trying to take Earth. The game is described as "social" so the guess around the internet is it's an mmo. Also documents have been found with the Destiny logo along with the Playstation Logo and Xbox logo.

Hello world! I hope you had a good Thanksgiving and managed to survive the hordes of people that flooded the stores on this black Friday. XBox 720 News New news has been leaked about the next generation of Xbox. The rumor around the 720, is that two versions will be released.  A weaker version will be released that will use a version or at least bits of Windows 8 as it's operating system. This version wont be able to run the newest "super" titles that will be released and is meant for casual games that will be downloadable on Xbox Live. They're doing this to try to pull in the more casual player that would pick up the system for things like Netflix use and would hopefully grow into people downloading other apps and games. We are still hearing rumors about how the system wont be backwards compatible, also how the game wont be able to play used games. There's no confirmation of this yet, but still if it's true it's sure going to stink. The hope is tha...

Baldur's Gate: The Enhanced Edition that was scheduled to be released back in September has been pushed back until November 30th. For those that don't remember Baldur's Gate was a D&D style RPG released on the PC back in the  1998.  It's based in the Forgotten Realms world of magic, swords and grand adventure. Forgotten Realms is a major campaign setting for Dungeons and Dragons, where a large number of books (R.A. Salvatore a must read author is you like Sci-fi/Fantasy), and video games are set including Neverwinter Nights.  Eventually came out with an expansion back, Tales of the Sword Coast, and sequel Baldur's Gate 2. The re-release will have the original Baldur's Gate, the expansion Tales of the Sword Coast, along with new adventures, more characters to find along the way, improved multi-player along with a host of other improvements.  It will be available on Windows, iPad, Mac OS, and Android. It's a shame though you wont be able to download it...

So it's been a big day in the gaming world with some great news that everybody can dance a jig of glee about. Baldur's Gate Remix First is that Atari, Wizards of the Coast, and Overhaul Games have announced they are in the process of making enhanced editions of Baldur's Gate and Baldur's Gate 2. Now for the young this might not mean much but for those of us that have been playing games for awhile this is epic news. The Baldur's gate games were some of the best RPG gaming ever created. Baldur's Gate was release in 1998, in a dungeons and dragons setting you took the role of a character out to find why and who was after you. Along the way you completed quests, befriended companions that you ended up growing close to, all across dozens of maps. This game was as close to an open world as you were getting back then. I can't wait to see what comes of these enhancement editions of the game. If you want more information you can visit the official site here . Di...
