PS3 Taking Game Saves TO THE CLOUD. TECH TERMS.
*
Those fucking Windows 7 advertisements all TO THE CLOUD suck my ass. However, I am not an opponent of the CLOUD. I do not fight it. Or hate it. Thusly, I’m pretty fucking stoked that a future PS3 update will TAKE PLAYSTATION GAME SAVES TO THE FUCKING CLOUD.
Joystiq:
According to a recent report from Kotaku, unnamed sources in the game development community have received notifications from Sony telling of a feature which will be incorporated into PS3 firmware update 3.60: Cloud storage for saved games. According to the report, the feature (called “Online Saving”) gives developers the opportunity to let players set up their save files on a remote server, preserving the precious, precious space on their own hard drives, and allowing players to access save data from multiple consoles.
These developers also reportedly explained that the feature will only be made available to PlayStation Plus subscribers, or, as they’ll henceforth be called, the “Save File Insured.” This report sounds fairly believable — remote storage was one of the rumored features of PlayStation Plus before its reveal, and there was also that Sony trademark for “PS Cloud” back in 2009. We’ve contacted Sony for a comment on this report.
Oh, HOLD THE FUCK ON. I have to pay money to TAKE TO THE CLOUD with my saved games? Well, I suppose it makes sense. TAKING MY SAVED GAMES TO THE CLOUD would, in fact, be the first thing I’d ever consider spending money on PlayStation Plus for. Fuckers. All smart. About me. And money. AND THE CLOUD.
*[When I typed in “TO THE FUCKING CLOUD” in Google, that picture came up in Search Results. Too amazing not to use.]
Bulletstorm To Feature Gang Bangs? Check This Video.
Oh Bulletstorm. For a while, I loved you from afar. Your juvenile swagger spoke to me. Now, you’re getting closer and closer. I played the demo. You delivered. The distance that keeps us apart? Almost unbearable.
Today another video dropped, this time showing the Skillshot, the Gang Bang. Oh yeah man, the glory of this game will be known. Known well.

Sony Unveils PSP2 Or As They’ve Dubbed It, “NGP”.
I don’t give a shit about portable consoles. I ain’t hating, it just isn’t something I’ve ever been in to. With that in mind, it took a lot for me to drudge up the effort to mention here that Sony’s announced the PSP2. Or as they’re codenaming it, dubbing it, calling it, whatever: NGP. That would stand for Next-Gen Portable. Clever, right?

Dead Space 2 Impressions: Cyberpunk Boner.
OH SHIT, I’m coasting on some caffeine. Cracked open Dead Space 2 yesterday. Played it for about…an hour and a half? Thoughts: it’s fucking radical. Like, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles radical. Tubular, even. Initial fears over Isaac Clarke having a prominent speaking role? Dismissed. Cast aside. Having him play a larger role is fantastic, and he’s also apparently a sexy lad. Yeah, I don’t know why I’m mentioning that. Ripping this shit off the tip of consciousness. A consciousness polished and aimed with a caffeinated machine gun spray.
MY FAVORITE PART SO FAR?
The setting. As much as I liked the whole Event Horizon-Alien-Whatever tip of the original, I love the Sprawl more. Why? ‘Cause if you ain’t in the know, son, it’s a cyberpunk homage. There’s no way the name the Sprawl isn’t a head nod to William Gibson’s Neuromancer. The setting itself reflects this homage, the whole thing looking like a cyberpunk orgasm that channels Gibson and Blade Runner and other bonery.
GAMEPLAY?
Like the original, but adrenaline charged. A lot more enemies coming at you at once, and Jesus they seem to be running a lot faster. Maybe it’s because I played it after a long day, but I was (enjoying) having a harder time corralling all of the little demons charging me.
HAVE YOU PLAYED IT?
I’m only on the third chapter, but I’d be interested to hear other people’s thoughts-in-progress.
Fallout Fan Film – ‘Nuka Break’ Is Glorious Fan Service.
Most of the time, I find fan flicks to be awkward as fuck, miserable affairs. Geeks wanking. Listen, I love geeks wanking. But they generally try too hard, and while in paying homage, come off as well, fan flicks. Fallout: Nuka Break ain’t that. I was skeptical at first, as it opened up with some Whedon-esque dialogue. [Aside: Listen geeks, you’re not Joss Whedon. And he sucks. Stop talking like you’re in Firefly, you’re not witty.]
But the entire experience turned out funny, cute, and I was pretty bummed it was only seventeen minutes. Well done to everyone involved.

Bulletstorm Demo Impressions: BONERSTORM.
When I take up a cause, I do it full on. Over-the-top and out of control. If you’ve been poking around these parts lately, you know that I have undergone total dickcrush mode for Bulletstorm. Childish, juvenile, and embracing every fucking moment of it. The demo dropped today, and I was fucking stoked. As I downloaded that shit, I threw up a psalm or two dozen to whatever Vaporous Deity wanted to pay attention to me.
Dear Netherworld Otherbeings, please let this game fucking rock.
Sometimes, motherfuckers hear your prayer.
Macho Man Cuts A Promo For WWE Game; It’s MENTAL INSANITY!
Macho Man Randy Savage is one of the baddest motherfuckers alive. Fact, not opinion. Nothing can stop him. Not time, nor drugs, nor the death of Miss Elizabeth. After parting ways in 1994, the WWE and Macho Man have reunited, and it has resulted in awesome. The Macho Man has cut a fucking ridiculous promo for THQ’s upcoming WWE All-Stars. In something that is no less than a nostalgia-bomb-orgasm for me, Macho Man rambles on for a good minute and a half. Dude drops lines like “COMPLETE MENTAL INSANNNNNNNNNNITY” and “FUNKY LIKE A MONKEY.” Jesus Christ, I wish I was on set for this.
Oh childhood, I miss you.

New Asura’s Wrath Trailer Will Stab You With Awesome.
When Capcom debuted Asura’s Wrath last year, my priapism kicked in my pants. Like a goddamn bazooka. A bazooka of two inches and flimsy constitution, but who cares, let me dream. There’s some new screens and a trailer afoot on the internet, and here they are for your viewing pleasure.
Hells yeah hit the jump!
Dude’s Mom Loves Blood And Death In Dead Space 2! Seriously.
Electronic Arts is going with a pretty amusing “Your Mom Hates This!” ad campaign for Dead Space 2. They show the game to the average Mom. Then they catch the Moms on camera as they shit their pants, and run back to their lives of fupas and super-processed hair. I dig it.
What do I dig more? Dino Ignacio’s Mom. Ignacio is the user interface designer for Dead Space 2, and he decided to show his Mom clips of the game. Is she appalled? Hardly. She chuckles as she watches poor Isaac Clarke get dismembered and die a zillion horrible deaths. Outstanding.
Reminds me of my Mom, after spending twenty years in a house with my brother and myself.
