Evil Ambassador Copiozo on: F.E.A.R. 3
The heavily influenced by Japanese horror movies FPS game is back thanks to WB Games. And while it is under design by a new studio called Day 1 Studios, they claim to be working closely with the game's original developers of the first F.E.A.R. game, Monolith. With this much backing and work being done on the game, it's probably no question that F.E.A.R. 3 will be a horror-fps game that will make you jump in fright (before retaliating with your arsenal of weapons).
Plotwise the game seems pretty well done since the game's story and

Time Magazine-Gamestop Promotion under stress of its reception
While TIME magazine doesn't seem to be the magazine for gamers (I'm more a US News & World Report person myself), the magazine is getting some news from its Gamestop poster/promotion which I talked about back in mid-May. While it seems like it is getting some attention, some of it not what Activision wanted.
According to the New York Times, TIME magazine supported the art direction of the promo and also approved of Activision's

Bioshock Infinite: Evil Ambassador Copiozo's Thoughts
Bioshock Infinite is one of the games I was really, REALLY looking forward to hearing about at E3 and during Sony's Press Conference on Monday, my wish was fulfilled. Before I go on talking about what was revealed at E3, best we retract what makes me want this game so much.
Now when I heard of a new Bioshock, I was coming off a slight bit of a "meh" after playing Bioshock 2. Now, don't get me wrong, I loved Bioshock 2, but I did feel a bit of that the multiplayer was

Battlefield 3 at E3
So at E3 on Monday, Electronic Arts held their press conference. Amongst their announcements of games like Mass Effect, Madden, and FIFA, there was one game that I really wanted to set my eyes upon, Battlefield 3. And I was looking forward to the live streaming of the trailer and the gameplay and having high expectations. And thankfully, EA lived up to its words and didn't disappoint me at all.

Evil Ambassador Copiozo's thoughts on LA Noire.
LA Noire takes you back to 1947 Los Angeles, the second War has ended and you're Cole Phelps, a new cop with a decorated war record trying to right the wrongs of his past and then-present time LA. He starts out from the bottom and work his way to the top.
This is not your typical Rockstar game. And frankly, I love that. A breath of fresh air of stealing cars and running over pedestrians to make a faster path to whatever GTA-esque crime event you have to do. Being a boy in blue means you have to behave well. So that means

Evil Ambassador Copiozo's Thoughts on upcoming Green Lantern video game.
You know, it seems that the best movies out there these days are usually ones based on nerd stuff that I like like video games and comic books....with a few titles we wish that didn't get on the big screen (coughcoughFantastic Fourcoughcough). While they are huge hits and are part of my vast DVD library, the best movies nearly almost make the worst video games. This is usually to generate more cash for the movie (the term "cash-in" is used for this
