Gamer Herald - December 2010

We're Back!!!

December 28th 2010 04:11
Hello Gamers,

Well we hope everybody had a great Christmas Holiday, I know we did. Now we are back and better than ever. It has been a crazy 2010 for the video game industry. We saw some of the greatest games ever to be released in the industry in a long time. We saw the 2010 game of the year be announced at the Video Game Awards which was Red Dead Redemption (which is one of the best games I have ever played).

Call of Duty: Black Ops was also one of the best games that was released this year. That game was so good that it made the Top 10 Games ever sold in the US. To me it sounds like Call of Duty is well on its way to being the best game ever.


2010 was also the year of the Motion Controller. Microsoft and Sony both released a motion controller to compete with the Nintendo Wii. The Kinect was released in November and in its first week of its release saw huge numbers. The Playstation Move which was released in September also saw huge gains and numbers.

So what will 2011 bring us, what games are you all waiting for email us at gamerherald@gmail.com and we will post all the games. Thanks everyone and have a Happy New Year.

Splinter Cell just Announced!!

December 21st 2010 21:00
Good Afternoon Gamers,

Well we are just a few days from the big moment Christmas Day, where all Gamers will rejoice and enjoy the games that we wanted all year. Now I hope I get all the games I have been looking forward to. One series of games that I am looking forward to is Splinter Cell.

Ubisoft has just announced that the first three installments of the Splinter Cell series will be arriving to the PS3 in HD. It will be released in 2011, I have been a huge fan of Splinter Cell. I loved the games that came out in the beginning on PS2. It will be great to finally see Sam Fisher in HD from the original games.


Now Ubisoft is no stranger to bringing old classics in the HD era of gaming. They have released the Prince of Persia trilogy earlier this year and are now also in 2011 getting ready to release the Tomb Raider series as well. God of War has seen a great boost from its releases of the original two installments on the PS3 (which is great by the way I would suggest getting it) and now lets see what Splinter Cell can do.

So stay tuned for more Video Game news and reviews from th eGamer Herald or email us at gamerherald@gmail.com for topics you would like for us to talk about.

Good Evening Gamers,

So its has been over a month since the release of Call of Duty: Black OPS by Activision. It has reached to be one of the best selling games in the United States in just over a month. I can't believe the following that this game has. In the first night of its release there were over one million people who were online playing the game just within one hour. It is incredible and it will just continue to grow.

So what position did the game receive? On the list it actually reached #7 on the all time list. Call of Duty: Black Ops actually accounted for 25% of Video Game sells in the month of November. As of date Black Ops has sold 8.4 Million copies all being combined of Xbox 360, Nintendo Wii, PS3, PC, and Nintendo DS.

We have the list Below of the All Time list of best selling Video Games:

1.) Nintendo Wii Play w/ Remote
2.) Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2
3.) Guitar Hero 3; Legends of Rock
4.) Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
5.) Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
6.) Mario Kart w/ Wheel
7.) Call of Duty: Black Ops
8.) New Super Mario Bros
9.) Nintendo Wii Fit
10.) Call of Duty: World at War

Those are the top ten best selling Video Games. As you can see the Call of Duty franchise holds 4 of the top spots. This franchise is just a juggernaut and the way it looks it may be a long time before it slows down.

So stay tuned Gamers to more Video Game news, reviews, and previews and if you have a topic you want us to talk about please email us at gamerherald@gmail.com

December 7th 2010 20:45
Good Afternoon Gamers,

Ok so get this Im looking through the internet and I came across this article on Gamespot.com. People are now hacking the Kinect and are now using it in different ways. This particular one took me for a loop so a college student used a Kinect ans created helicopter out of it. Using the brain of the Kinect to actually control the copter.

Kinect or Move?! Hmmm Decisions

December 6th 2010 23:16
Good Afternoon Gamers,

I know that is something so many Gamers are asking themselves right now. Since the introduction of the Nintendo Wii both Microsoft and Sony were on the outside looking in. They saw the Wii taking the spotlight from them both and now they both have taken a step forward in motion controllers.

Ghostbusters Sequel?!

December 2nd 2010 20:53
Good Afternoon Gamers,

So when Ghostbusters came out for the PS3, Xbox 360, and the Nintendo Wii I was a little hesitant to pick it up. History shows that video games have not been very kind to the Ghostbusters. When I played that horrific excuse of a game Ghostbusters on the original Nintendo. It was hard to put behind me.

Cable TV on Xbox 360?

December 2nd 2010 20:07
Good Afternoon Gamers,

You heard it right, this would be a great possibility. Cable TV on Xbox 360, would swing the Xbox 360 as the main leading video game console if this were to come to fruition. Since the new Xbox 360 dashboard was released it brought along the ESPN channel with it which is a start for TV on the Xbox 360.
