Contra 4 DS

Contra 4 is coming out for the Nintendo DS on November 13, 2007 and will include Contra and Super Contra from the NES. I can't wait, since Super Contra was the first game I purchased for my SNES. Big fan of Up Up Down Down Left Right Left Right B A Start. Good times.

Halo 3 - $300 Million in 1 week

Wow, it really isn't any surprise that this game was going to sell, but $300 million in one week is just amazing. It made $170 million in the first 24 hours, more than any blockbuster movie has ever made in 3 days. I bet Hollywood would like to charge $50 per ticket to get this kind of return on a movie, but then who would go out to see a movie, but I know that they are jealous.

The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass

I have only been playing The Legend of Zelda Phantom Hourglass on the DS for a short period of time due to the fact that I just picked it up last night and I was finishing Halo 3. My opinion of this game may be a little biased, if you have been reading my blog over the years, you would know that I am addicted to Zelda games, but I have to say after just watching the intro and starting the game, the graphics, controls, sound are awesome. You move link by placing your stylus on the screen where you want Link to go. The graphics remind me of the Gamecube version with link looking young. Some people didn't like that version of Zelda, but with the wide use of colors it is like butter. I know that I will really enjoy it and will update you when I am farther along. So, if you are a fan of Zelda (you probably already bought it) and have a DS, this is a definite buy it now.
