Guitar Hero III
Wednesday, November 14, 2007 at 09:10AM A lot of you ask about my favorite games that aren't on Candystand. As you can imagine, I play a TON of video games... you kind of have to in order to do a job like this! My latest obsession is Guitar Hero III. I'm sure I am preaching to the choir here, but the game is flat-out amazing and the wireless guitar makes the experience even better.
So, when the folks at Activision gave me a call and asked if we wanted to partner up on the game, you can imagine that it wasn't a tough sell! Hopefully you've seen that we are celebrating the game on Candystand by giving away a killer Gibson guitar and a ton of GH3 merchandise in the Candystand Rocks Guitar Hero III Sweepstakes that's up on the site right now. You definitely want to sign up for that one.
Something you may not be aware of is that our friends at Activision have actually put Wrigley's 5 Gum in the game. We've put together a video to give you a look. Now, when I play I can call it "research."
Our next new game: Headcase
Saturday, November 10, 2007 at 08:56PM Hope everyone is having a good weekend. Based on our traffic reports, I think you're all digging Vector TDx.
I hope you'll like our next game just as much. It's called `Headcase' and we've got a preview video for you to check out. Enjoy!
Vector TDx is live.... and your Friday productivity is toast!
Friday, November 9, 2007 at 01:48PM Announcing Vector TDx
Saturday, October 27, 2007 at 12:28PM We've gotten tons of requests for a Vector TD tournament. We'll start with the bad news.... since each level of the game has it's own leaderboard, it isn't compatible with our Tournaments application.
Fear not! Our friend David Scott took this as a challenge. And... he's delivered! Soon, we will be launching Vector TDx a new version of Vector TD. This game will have a single, all-new map and some new and upgraded towers. There's only one difficulty setting, so we will finally be able to find out just who is the world's best TD player!
We'll announce our launch date and unveil some screen shots in about a week. We plan on launching the game a week or two before starting the tournament so that you guys can practice up!
For all of the latest, stay tuned here at the blog.
