I should probably mention that the trailer was most definitely showing pre-rendered content. I have no doubt in my mind that those were not in-game graphics.

Oh man. Here we are, end of the week. This is the special weekend edition of the Community Blog Recap. Besides recapping the blogs of the last two days I've included all of my Cream of the Crop picks for last week as well. See you guys on Monday!

Several thoughts on improving the recaps:

  -More selective? Less selective?
  -Should I bring back old categories? Create new ones?

If you have any thoughts on the matter, or suggestions of your own, I would love to hear from you!

Did I miss your blog?

      I may have overlooked it or simply passed due to lack of content. Either way hit me up with a private message and I'll add it.

Misspelled your name? Bad link? Inaccurate info?

      My apologies. Send a private message my way and I'll fix it.

Cream of the Crop?

     Totally my opinion. Most of my picks are blogs that focus on recent issues in gaming, analysis on certain games, or generally anything well written and interesting. I'm often wrong though and I apologize if I miss a truly well written blog.

Want to help?

      Send me a private message, I'd be happy to have the help.

It says Wii, DS, and then, rather simply, Playstation. I guess that would mean Playstation 2?

Happy Thursday guys. Today was pretty slow as far as blogs go. Nothing jaw-dropping, but, eh, it's Thursday. Tomorrow's recap will be slightly earlier than usual, so look for it around 5 pm central time.

Hey guys! Isn't it about time we had one of these?

I don't have a whole lot of criteria. Pretty much everything makes the cut, but I'll probably pass on the really short blogs. Sorry but there's just too many bloggers here.

I accidentally created a duplicate page for the DS game Moon. This is the one that needs to be deleted.

I'm actually kind of baffled. I searched for the game and didn't find. I even went to the developers page and it wasn't listed. Strange.

They're both good in a lot of respects, but overall I'd say Ratchet and Clank. I mean, of course, the first Jak and Daxter is pretty untouchable. But after that the quality definitely declined a little. Still good, but never as good. Ratchet and Clank, though, is pretty solid throughout. Except for the Deadlocked bullshit.
