Lost Delayed, Possibly Until September


Prepare for outrage. Just as Lost was starting its final laps with the last few episodes-- we have a delay.

REVIEW: Lost Season 6 Episode 10 "The Package"



Folks, we’re winding down to the end of Lost. There are only 6 more episodes to go. After last weeks rocking episode I was a little worried we’d get one about Kate. Have you ever noticed how Kate is the word hate with a “K” but I digress. We didn’t, we got a real Sun and Jin episode, and it was relatively good.

Keep reading to see my opinions on the episode and my theories. Feel free to call me out or post your own theories in the comments.

REVIEW: God of War III for Playstation 3


There were always people hanging around, natives and tourists alike, waiting for the latest tidbit on most anything. So Paul took his stand in the open space at the Areopagus and laid it out for them. "It is plain to see that you Athenians take your religion seriously. When I arrived here the other day, I was fascinated with all the shrines I came across. And then I found one inscribed, to the god nobody knows. I'm here to introduce you to this God so you can worship intelligently, know who you're dealing with.
-An Ancient Text

The god I didn’t know until now was Kratos. I had never even played a God of War game until Santa Monica’s third effort. I hardly even cared about the franchise. Here at The GameTrust I’m the PS3 man and, by default, it became my baby. I left this game paying attention not just to the God of War franchise but to the developer Santa Monica. Yes, I know, I’m late to the game. Many of you have already been here and done this. My perspective is from a completely fresh experience, and thus I will not be comparing it to any of the prior franchise games.

REVIEW: Lost- Season 6 Ep. 9 "Ab Aeterno"


Ricardo, we finally got your episode. Last night’s Lost episode was a night I’ve been looking forward to for a long time. I’ve always had questions of where Richard came from. Last night we got his story.
*Insert 80's slow clap here*

REVIEW: Lost- Season 6 Ep. 7 "Recon"

ABC didn't even ask if they could use this picture of me! What gives?!

Lost gave us another great episode. The only thing was it didn’t go much of anywhere. It was better than the Kate episode from this season, but it probably didn’t have as much information in it. It’s probably just because I like Sawyer a lot more than I like Kate.

Spoilers will happen when you go to the next page... don't read it if you haven't seen the episode. I'm serious.

PREVIEW: Monster Hunter Tri


I’ve never played any game in the Monster Hunter series before. When I first heard the name Monster Hunter I thought of some lame Pokemon rip off. I was very wrong. These two franchises have nearly nothing in common but wacky Japanese culture.

I recently got the chance to play Monster Hunter Tri for Wii. Below I’m going to give my virgin impressions of the game. I know that if you’ve played your fair share of Monster Hunter you’ll probably eat my opinions for lunch. The point of this preview is not to inform Monster Hunter pros on what to expect, because you already know. This is to let newcomers to the series catch a glimpse into this interesting game. It’s the first of its kind on Wii and a non-Playstation format. Monster Hunter is all the rage for PSP in Japan.

REVIEW: Lost Season 6 Episode 6 "Dr. Linus"

I love to hate Ben Linus. He may very well be my favorite character on Lost. I know he’s an evil pawn, but it’s fun to watch him play the game. For that reason this review may be a little skewed. Give me a break.

WARNING: what follows will have spoilers and probably won’t make much sense if you haven’t seen the episode. I’m not doing a recap here.

REVIEW: The Rocket Summer, Of Men and Angels




Bryce Avery amazes me. He is the front man... Actually he is the man of The Rocket Summer. Bryce plays every instrument on the album and has played almost all the instruments on every album he’s put out. The Rocket Summer has had some really great music over the years, but how does this newest offering, Of Men and Angels, stack up?

REVIEW: Lost Season 6 Episode 5 "Sundown"



We’ve now taken a look at Sayid’s life off of the Island. Even though his life in the flash sideways is quite hectic it seems much better than his “life” on the island. This episode deals with some very dark things and in some ways Sayid embraces them and in others he, well, reluctantly embraces them.
