“This is the retarded face I make when I beat your ass! You better watch out skinny kid, if you don’t let me win, I’ll eat your controller.”
If you haven’t already done so, we’ve got a pretty good discussion going on over in the “What Is The Longest Session You’ve Gamed For?” post about just how long you’ve gamed for in one sitting. Please be sure to go on over and comment if you’re a lazy gaming bastard like me.
Whew! It’s finally Friday and the end of the work week for most of us “working folk”, and we here at Loot Ninja want to let you guys sound off on all of the great games you are playing at the moment. It’s still a slow release month for us gamers, but with cool and original XBLA titles like Limbo and DeathSpank, I’m sure there’s a few ways for you guys to sink in a few gaming hours.

One of the hardest things to cope with growing older is the added levels of responsibility you have to take care of. From mowing the lawn, paying bills, and hanging out with your girl, one thing that continues to be put into the bin of “things to do” is video games. All of these responsibilities begin to take over, pushing out all of your free time to just staring at a blank wall. We both know that with the stressful nature of managing money and adult chores to do, the last thing you want to do is get frustrated by a boss or something in an imaginary game.

Damn! I don’t know what game that kid is playing but I want it! Any game that makes you look like that has got to be good right?
It’s the end of the work week for most of us “working folk”, and we here at Loot Ninja want to let you guys sound off on all of the great games you are playing at the moment. We want to know what you’re looking forward to playing over this 4th of July weekend. Did you just get LEGO: Harry Potter? Or another new game wrapped in cellophane that you are itching to play when you get home? Are you trying to finish off the last few levels to move on to the next great adventure? We want to know what it is!
Just finished Alan Wake last week and have been diving into Red Dead Redemption. Just took down the fort to end Act 1. Really loving the game so far. Love the fact that it seems like I could have taken on the fort by myself but I was patient and got everyone together to come help me. That was cool!
What are you guys and gals out there currently playing or getting ready to play over the 4th of July weekend? Let us know in the comments.

I’m almost done with Alan Wake. I just finished up Episode 5 and I’m just about halfway through Episode 6 (I think). It’s the final chapter in the game and so far the story has gotten really cheesy and pretty bad now that I know the situation. Hopefully Remedy ties all of the corners up nicely or they have a good twist at the end, but if the game ended right now I’d be really disappointed with the game. It plays great, it’s very spooky, but the story just isn’t doing it for me?

It’s Friday! The end of the work week for most of us. We here at Loot Ninja want to let you guys sound off on what you guys are looking forward to playing over the weekend? Did you just get a brand new game still wrapped in the cellophane that you are itching to play? Are you trying to finish off the last few bosses or levels to move on to the next great adventure?

I can’t wait to finish up Bioshock 2 this weekend. I’m so close! I don’t think I have too much further to go in it-I’m on the Persephone level going after Sofia Lamb-and hope to finish it up with a few more hours. Next, I’ll be reviewing Dead To Rights: Retribution for you guys here at Loot Ninja. Then, it’s on to playing the laugh riot Deadly Premonition, a bargain bin game from Ignition Entertainment. That’s a lot of gaming time I hope to fit in.
What are you guys and gals out there currently playing? What games are you looking forward to enjoying in your weekend gaming time? Let us know in the comments.
Video game connoisseurs come in all shapes and sizes. We have the over the top “magic missle” wizards, and we have the casual gamers who can get by playing nothing but Peggle and UNO on Xbox Live (and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that!). Point is, we see a lot of diversity in the gaming community. This ends up echoing over to our gaming setup that we use day in and day out at home. We could have over the top everything in our gaming collection of Japanese imported PS2 titles, with the room decorated with Mario or Sonic plastered on the wall, or we could also just have a padded white room with a very small stack of DS games. It could go either way!
Where do you stack up? Do you only buy the one of a kind collector’s editions of games? Or do you buy used? Are you the extreme or the sublime? I don’t care! I want to see it. You see that glorious setup pictured above? That’s all mine baby. Ikea furniture and all. I’ll go into detail about it in just a little bit, but I’ll get to the point of my article. I want to see how the Loot Ninja clan gets their game on. I want to see your gaming setup… And showing it to me could get you a Loot Ninja shirt!

For me, drinking and video games go hand in hand on Friday and Saturday night. We all do it. We start out in our younger years as small kids drinking juice boxes before the next level of Sonic. We graduated up to soda as we got older before taking on that next passenger in Crazy Taxi. So as an “adult” (I use that term loosely when referring to myself) we carry the torch into alcoholic beverages, mixing them in with our video game time. It can be fun times, or it can totally fuck up your game save forever. Here are a few tips with New Year’s coming up to help you stay up late and get your game on.

Okay, this post is for all you broke, penniless, spindle toting gamers like me who can barely afford to pay attention.
We here at Loot Ninja are all poor, working stiffs, thanks mostly to our wives and/or girlfriends spending all our money on useless random crap, like “furniture” and “the water bill”. This does not include Scuba, because he’s a fancy man and loves to sit naked on his imported Scandinavian furniture, while sipping expensive wine and nibbling cheese cubes.
Anyways, we will be bringing back the old “Broke Bastard Alerts”, and trying to polish that turd up a little more. We like to think of ourselves as the oil speculators of the gaming market. Rest assured, when the prices drop, we are ALL over it.
Here’s the deals for this go round.
- DLC titles Brain Challenge, Street Fighter II Hyper Fighting, and 3D Ultra MiniGolf Adventures are now available at 400 Microsoft Points each on XBLA.
- Amazon.com this week price cut Xbox Live Gold Card SKU’s by 20%, including the Xbox Live 3-month Gold Card at $15.99, and the Xbox Live 12-month Gold Card at $39.99
So get ‘em while the gettin’s good.
As usual, user submissions are welcome, so if you see a great deal on anything gaming related, send it our way and we’ll post it up.

There are more shows on MTV besides spoiled teens running around spending their parents money and interning at fashion magazines. MTV has their “True Life” series which portrays people of a certain disposition in a “real” fashion. MTV did a special called, “I am a Gamer” which highlighted the lives of a Golden Tee player, a gaming clan,the world’s best Unreal Tournament player, and the world’s best Pac-man player. You know, the bad guy from “Fistful of Quarters”. He makes hot sauce and has long hair. We think he is kind of a jerk.
Anyway, MTV is casting for this show. Who knows, it may get you laid. Maybe. Here is the link. Show up and get your 15 minutes of fame. All of those hours you spent playing Diablo II need to count for something, right?
