Ezio Auditore da Firenze in FFXIII-2!?

As if it isn't enough that Square Enix is basically loitering with Versus 13 for the sake of XIII-2 and Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance (aka 3D). Now they even punish Ezio Auditore for even existing!

CryEngine3 Titanic vs Lumious & others

Ever wanted to see the game "Titanic Adventure Out Of Time" from 1996 in HD? Exploring the 1912 huge passenger liner in first person mode once more?
Here's your chance!

A Wishlist for fun, or at least the stuff little Alkaid could think of right now. Also information is included as well, though only partially. But leaving that section empty is unbearably bleak and shallow so filling this place with wishes and a little complaint is in order. Hope you don't mind if you do, just ignore this post and have a nice day! ;)
Also this might not be the real intention for this place but I just can't stand empty space like that even though we go on it every day.

Deus EX: HR The Missing Link (DLC Addition)

Welcome back dear readers to another round of "tag me" in Deus Ex Human Revolution.

There was once a submarine and it was yellow (as my fellow reviewer would say). This little submarine was cut of it’s content in favour of the DLC and release date.
So you invested your hard earned bucks in DeusEx Human revolution and are eager for more?

You want to see what Adam Jensen is capable of once more?

You liked the story and the philosophical background and want to experience the whole thing anew?

Your answer if you should or shouldn’t will be answered here.

Theatrhythm - Dissida - Final Fantasy

Hello dear people of TheCol- LOL oh I forgot, we're not there anymore so GOTCHA! Well then once more!

Hello dear people all over the world!

We are here to talk about the new game. Our dear Square Enix "plagiarized" once more and yes we are doing "that mistake" here also one more time, advertising SE games in an indirect manner! So brace yourselves for the ride, we have much to talk about here!

As you might have know Square Enix, formerly Square Soft is a gaming company stripped of it's former pride as a developer because of the famous words "We know what we did wrong and we apologize for our mistakes. Also we want to try harder in the future."

Square Enix registers Final Fantasy XIII-3 Domain?!

AHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHH SERIOUSLY I HAVEN'T LAUGHED SO HARD IN AGES! REALLY, NONE OF THAT COMPANY'S MANY FAILURES THESE PAST YEARS MADE ME LOSE MY MIND LIKE THIS! I'M STILL LAUGHING LIKE A MANIAC WHENEVER IT CROSSES MY MIND XDDDDDD

Okay, so they registered another domain. finalfantasyxiii-3.com.
XIII-2 isn't even out yet (and looks still like crap) and XIII was a disaster in terms of reviews.
Versus XIII is not even close to release with very, very little information ever getting published, which mostly states how they changed plans on something again, blablablanomurahasfunlivinghiswetdream.

Now now, XIII-2 is so brilliant, a real highlight of the series. It has cities. It seemingly is going to have stores (one can only hope) and you can TALK TO NPCs WHICH THEN SPEAK THEIR TWO LINES OF TEXT! OH MY GOD! THIS IS SO NEW!!!
Aside from that, we get "world is doomed, future guy comes back" time paradox bullshit. Last guy on the planet? Noel, right, you're the last motherfucking unicorn, I know, but you still are damn annoying.

To understand XIII-2 is to understand that Square Enix is making losses without end these years. Profits are shrinking rapidly, and the company seems even more focused than ever to throw out enough crap titles to even remotely stay in business while other studios they bought one day after the fusion of Squaresoft and Enix do the proper games that actually allow them to exist at all. Endless outsourcing takes its toll.

FFXIII-2 is full of things Square Enix did not do these past years. Pokemon, time travel, towns, proper NPCs, sidequests, hiphop and another cliche plot.
Okay, the last point is nothing new, we had cliche plots before. But seriously, they've thrown so much random crap into this game, they seem desperate to attract every single group of nintenyearolds there is.
They don't seem to have enough freedom for their projects to do something proper anymore. No time and money to risk a new engine, plot and characterdesign.

Seriously, at this point, they might just do the same they did to Final Fantasy Agito XIII/Type-0 to Versus XIII: Rename it.
Noel saves his future, gets back into the Versus XIII world. Voila, XIII-3.

Or the damn Valkyre Lightning isn't real Lightning, has no sister in that paradox and always has been guarding Etro. Of course, Vanilla and Fang will be forgotten as they don't exist in that Paradox without the real Lightning. Serah is gonna be heartbroken (again...) and will look for real Lightning throughout XIII-3, finally getting rid of the sucker Noel who now is in his Versus XIII future.

Serah will then travel the worlds of other Square Enix titles that failed to sell well or be critically acclaimed, and we'll go look for Type-0 Lightning, Aya Brea Lightning, Lightning Nurse and Lightning Owuhabunga in Nigeria. There has to be a reason they recycle their character models so damn often, right?

No, for real people, I'm done with this shit. I can't laugh about it anymore after typing this post.
Knowing Square Enix' recent failures, which pile up higher than the skulls for Khorne's Skull Throne, this is gonna be just another bad game yet good example why this company's ruin is well justified.

First Thoughts on Deus Ex: HR

So, me's grabbed Deus Ex: Human Revolution.
I don't know if it will be worth the buy yet, and I'm not far into the game.

However, I already have some thoughts about the game I'd like to share. Maybe some of you can comment on them to hopefully assure me it'll get better later on.

My first time playing involved dear Alkaid, who'll work with me on a Game-related Project. We're preparing stuff currently, thinks are extremely confusing since neither of us has been working on a team project like that before, and especially the presentation needs to be done well.
More on that soon enough. Important point is I'm directly talking about the game while playing, streaming via skype.
