If you haven’t played the Bioshock XBOX Video Game, you are really sleeping behind the wheel. In terms of playing a game (for console), Bioshock easily takes the lead with intense characters, crazy graphics, and an awesome storyline. Imagine your plane has just crashed into uncharted waters, you sink into what appears to be an aquatic biosphere, and soon find that the utopia that was once hoped for has quickly turned into mutated humans, corrupted leadership, and a slew of rotten corpses. Sounds like fun no? Generally hanging around a 17-18+ rating, Bioshock for Xbox is a great gift idea for the upcoming Christmas season, or could be used as just a an after hours stress reliever!

Being that I love both super heroes and video games, I guess you can say I am “connected” with what is happening in the worlds of both. Recently I have found out that jail for the worlds most criminally insane, Arkham Asylum, has just broken loose and Gotham City is in all sorts of trouble. If there has ever been a way to clean up this problem, it is Lego Batman Video Game. With hilarious graphics, storyline, and characters (in typical lego game fashion), you can choose to be Batman, Robin, or up to 12 of the worst villains in super hero history in order to save Gotham. Offered in all platforms including Xbox 360 and soon PS3, Lego Batman will have you mastering new powers, moves, outfits, and vehicles such as the Batmobile, Batwing, and Batboat! For extreme game play, you are even able to customize your characters, build/transform the game environment, and find various collectibles for rewards. The Lego Batman video game can be played solo but has the ability for co-op play so that your sidekick can drop in and out at any time. The Lego Batman game is a great stress reliever and has all the facets of some good old fashion Lego fun.

If you are a guy or gal who spends the majority of their time in a comfortable chair with your controller in hand, screaming or jumping about during a video game, then you are in luck. A bit of great Professional Video Gamers News, a recent study has found that gamers (targeted on EverQuest 2) have a self-purported height and weight that is on average 10% leaner than the current national weight conditions. This is a hilarious twist of events considering most consider gamers to be extremely over weight! This study conducted by the South California University also has findings that show women actually spend more time at the controls then men do, even though men outnumber women gamers 4-1.  Who would have ever thought that a video game like EverQuest 2 could yield such important results? If you are a big fan of console or PC games, it is time to bask in the knowledge that perhaps the stereotype of a gamer will soon turn to a lean, mean, video game machine.

Call me crazy but most of my free time (and not so free time) is spent playing video games. I really could care less that while other people are out shopping or “enjoying the nice weather” I am inside trying to take over planet after planet, in an attempt to dominate the entire universe.

How many times have I heard that Spore “is predicted to come out next month”, only to wait in vain, and then wait some more, and then some more? I swear this video game has been pushed back for what seems like well over a year but the good news is that the Spore Video Game Release has happened! Designed by the same makers of The Sims, Spore is a game intended to allow the user to journey through evolutionary process over the far reaches of space. With millions of planets full of users creations, you will be able to interact, battle, and take over various galactic civilizations! As the user, you can chose to play within the 5 evolutionary phases of Spore, (cell, creature, tribe, civilization, and space) and the object is to see how advanced you are able to make your creation. Sorry to all you console gamers out there, but Spore is currently for Microsoft and Mac users only! Just be sure to have the appropriate system requirements and Internet hookup in order to enjoy full game play.
