Rage Saved My Life

Ever get pissed and slam your Wii Remote on your leg? I did, and it saved my life.

So, I'm currently playing the final boss fight in No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle, and in a fit of rage while Travis's death sequence was playing, I shook my Wii Remote around like an angry infant.

Lo and behold, Travis sprung back to life with four squares of health! So yes, it is now a proven fact - rage will save your life.

There's no need to run extensive testing, or perform studies spanning years. You heard it here, rage will save your life... well, at least in No More Heroes 2. As a matter of fact, it will save your life up-to-five times!

If the same applies in real life, does this mean Chessa is going to live forever?

My roommate has broken a few controllers out of rage. That was a few years back. Still, I know there's some evil creature with enough strength to crack and shatter the shell of a video game controller buried somewhere deep within.

This wasn't mentioned in the game's instructions? That's pretty funny

Metroid Prime 4: Beyond Review

It’s been a long time since we’ve seen an entry in the Metroid Prime series - 18 years, in fact. It was 8 years ago that Metroid Prime 4 was originally announced and its development was more than a little turbulent. Initially developed by Bandai Namco, it was later scrapped completely and development was shifted back to Retro Studios to start the project over. In the end, Retro has delivered a solid new entry in the series, but one that doesn’t totally capture what originally made the series so compelling.
