Update/Check These Guys Out If You Haven't

Hey guys and gals, Chris_sez here with a little update and a little bit of promotions. Even though the blog has been out for a good 3 weeks, we are still in the process of getting everything set up. We now have a total of 5 authors. These people are people that Sam and I know; hence, we asked them to be part of this and they agreed to it. So for right now, we will not be taking request for more authors. Sam believes that 5 authors are enough and I'm going to go with it for now.

Now that the updates are done, it's time for promotions. These people all have YouTube accounts and they are well known throughout the internet. Some of these people you will know and others this will be the first time you'll hear about them. So without further ado, let's show you some awesome gamers!!!

First we have the Angry Video Game Nerd (AVGN). Many people know him for his vulgar actions and words against games. Well this works very well for the Nerd. He is the true definition of a retro gamer; especially for the games that are bad or "shitty". James Rolfe is a great reviewer. He gives his opinion on the game with no hold bar. Suspect him to be shitting on games at times and point out the annoying crap in games. Want proof? Just look at his Silver Surfer review for the NES. He usually updates his YouTube channel about 2 times for reviews. Now that it's October, the Nerd will be reviewing horror movies & games; thus, giving Halloween its very spooky feel. Don't forget to check him out on ScrewAttack's website or Cinemassacre. The AVGN: One Nerd you don't want to mess with.

Welcome to 5UP Gaming Reviews!!!

Hello everyone, this is Chris_sez welcoming you to the brand new 1UP Gaming Blog!!! I'm brand new to the idea of gaming news and reviews; however, Samantha isn't. She has a blog where she talks about a lot of things. These can vary from video game news, to anime; even to life. I would highly recommend you all to check it out. http://lazynoonz.wordpress.com/. I do have a blog as well and highly recommend you to check it out: http://biggerthanastatus.blogspot.com/.


Well as I said before, this blog is for gaming news and reviews. We'll make sure to get the news out as fast as possible and make sure it's accurate. Both of us wanted to do this for a while; just didn't have the time to set this up. It's a good thing we started now, because this seems to be the best time/year for gaming. For example, Sonic Generations. This game has got a lot of hype (as it should) and a lot are excited to see the blue blur back in his element. So to make this as cool as possible, there will be reviews for a lot of the Sonic the Hedgehog games. It does include the game gear games (expect those reviews to be short). For more Sonic news, check Sonic Retro or Sonic Stadium.


Did you think we're only doing Sonic reviews? Well think again. We're gonna hit the games of our childhood, today's games and the games that made you rage quit. That's all for now. Give us some time to get the reviews out, since we have to play the games. Also, Sam is making a background/banner for this, so stay tuned for 5UP Gaming: We're your extra lives!!!


GAME-ON!!!
