Hey guys, couple months back I mentioned that I created a blog and stuff like that. Well, even though I havent written anything on it in a while, I actualy put alot of time into a new article and posted it on a blog im contributing to. Please give it a read (its a pretty sizeable article) and tell me what you think. The blog is about the many different endevors the PS3 has tried during this con...
http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2011-03-01-devil-may-cry-film-in-the-works As we all know, the film rights to Devil May Cry have been picked up by the same studio that has done the resident evil movies thus far. And honestly, im all for it. I think if theyre was one video game that could work as a movie it would be Devil May Cry. think about it, what is Devil May Cry known for? Crazy, over th...
I should preface by saying that I listened to J-POP and Japanese music prior to this, so im well open to music where I dont understand the lyrics and can just appreciate the music itself. So far im listening to this K-POP gro up called 2ne1 (21) and I find them quite good. Itunes only has their new album up, 'To Anyone" and Im enjoying it, even if alot of the songs are in auto tune. And im told...
Ive actualy been a rather big fan of Gamefly over the years. I dont have a job, so I cant afford to buy games that much, or atleast without seeing if they are good first. It has also given me the ability to play most anything I want, which expands my gaming. However, as of late theyve been kinda annoying me. First of all, if you want a new release, you have to plan 3 days ahead or more. Because...
Wether or not its considered weird for someone to perfer PS3 over 360 these days like it was back in the day (and honestly, it shouldnt be) im honestly considering making my PS3 my main paltform for console gaming going forward. This might be weird to some of you here, sine I think most of the community here are mainly 360 users. My reason for this change being certain factors that have present...
Well, its is now 4 Years today that the PS3 was launched in North America. Its been a crazy ride so far. We now come to a close to the retrospec for the PS3s first 4 years. In past entries, we saw the PS3 on the verge of collapse to showing great signs of rising from its own ashes to become a highly competitive and worthwhile console. But what has this year entailed for the console? Well, lets...
We last left off discussing PS3s infant years of the launch and first year on the market, and like we know, they werent exactly that stellar. But could this change in the year ahead? 2008: The first full year of PS3s existence had come and gone, and things werent looking good. Their was a drought of Exclusives, no one even thought about getting multiplatform on PS3 save for a few games fi they...
Ok, so the console gen isnt over yet, and these type of things are mostly done AFTER the hardware gen is over, but I thought it would be cool to get a retrospec of the last 4 years of the consoles life. So I will be doing blog posts like this up until the day it launched, which was Nov. 17th 2006 in North America. Since i owned the console since pretty much its launch, I thought I would do this...
Well, Move comes out in like 5 days or whatever. And thus the first shot at Nintendo in the motion control wars, but I guess its not really a war until all the particapents are in it, so come Nov. or whenever Kinect hits, the war will really begin. But, are these things REALLY going to sell alot day 1 (Move and Kinect)? I really dont think so. I think these things are not going to sell alot wee...
Ok, first of all, I would like to say that I love football. I love watching it and sunday is a bid event day at our house. Family members constantly talking smack because we each like different teams, and its great. But, I have been having a personal issue of constantly switching teams that I like. Wel, constantly may be a over statement, ive only switched twice. First, I was a Rams fan, but I...
I made a blog not too long ago asking for advice on how to structure my Video game realated radio show im planning on doing for my colleges radio station, and now I need a name for the thing. Me and this other guy are going to do it, and we need a good name. Thing is though, all the good or obvious names are taken. I cant call the show something like, say, Buttonmashers, because gamespot had a...
for the past 3 years or whatever that I have owned a PS3 I have constantly gone through a cycle of lament about wether or not I should have really boughten it. Maybe its that I hate thinking that 360 is some standard bullshit that you always need to demo on it, always need to show it in videos and always need to show that version being streamed if oyu do that kinda stuff because its some kind o...
I thought it was one of the best movies of the year, if not THE best. Maybe im biased because I play and love videogames, but everything about this movie was great nd enjoyable. It was super funny, rather adult for a PG 13 movie, I LOVED the Visual style of this movie and the fights, I loved the way the sound of the Intruments in the band have actual shape adn neon look, and I love that this mo...
http://www.splitreason.com/ Not sure how well known this place is, but I heard about it on a episode of Talkradar and I gotta say, these are some of the best gaming related shirts ive ever seen. heres some examples of the shirt designs: and heres some great nongame related stuff they have (I think this is my Fav. one) Seriously, I can spend like a crap ton of money here. Where do you get your g...
Im currently in the Broadcasting courses of college and my teacher suggested I joined our colleges internet radio station. But the thing is, im planning on filling a gap no one has done yet, targeting the video game fan part of the listenership. But im not entirely sure how to strutcture it. More then likely itll be just me, because I think I would have trouble finding someone in my college tha...
The 80s and 90s were undoubtably some of the strongest years for cartoons. I was born in 1989, so while technicaly I am a child of the 80s, im much more intune with cartoons of the 90s then I am cartoons of the 80s. I was able to watch stuff in the 90s as they aired, obviously I could not do that with 80s stuff. So I relied on reruns for that. Many believe that in todays age cartoons arent what...
They say that imitation is the most sincere form of flattery. But it also helps when the imitation is good. IMO these are the best 11 song covers. Keep in mind these are ones I like more then anything else. these are in no particular order. Sympathy for the Devil by Guns and roses (original performed by The Rolling Stones) Pretty Woman by Van Halen (original by Roy Orbison) Aside from the utter...
This is in no particular order, but these are what I believe are the 3 best Batman films every made: 1. Batman: Mask of the Phantasm: yes, its a animated movie, but it did hit theaters. and by god this story was good. Bruce wayne meets up with a Ex love interest named andrea years after they split up and they attempt to rekindle there romance. However, at the same time of her arrival, a Masked...
(Before reading, know that most of this is going to be "well, no shit" to you, but in order to give my take on the conferences, I had to summarize them. So if it really bothers you, skip to the bottom. i just wanted to try and write my own take on the conferences like sites like gamesradar do. I know its alot of text, but please try to give it a bit of a read atleast and give me some feedback....
Ok, so i posted this on another forum, and really wanted to get your guys opinon on it because I trust in your maturness (atleast for most of you) and id like to get as much feedback on this that I can so it can help me in the future. And for those of you who constantly rag on me for worrying about graphics so much, maybe it can give you some insight to why im so crazy about console version dif...
Ok, while people may not think this is a big deal, I think it is. I turned 21 last March 22nd, and this beer is by no mean my first, but it is the first I actually bought with my own money, which seems speacil to me. I wated this long because: A. I wanted to pick one I thought would be good, which took some thinking. B. didnt have the extra cash, and if I really wanted a beer, I can just raid m...
Ok, so like lots of people, i own both a PS3 and a 360. But over the past year, ive been finding myself falling into fanboy trappings between the two. Let me explain what i mean. I like gaming very much on my 360, but im very worried it going to max out soon, atleast sooner than the PS3, and therefore itll become a obsolete console and potentialy not as a good console. Because I like my console...
As you may or may not know, there are rumor/talks of quit a few popular animes being turned into movies for the west. Im not talking about Japan making these movies, these movies are being made for the states and western audiences, meaning more than likely they will involve Caucasian actors. These rumored movies include Akira (confirmed I believe), Bleach and Death Note. now, I would like to fo...
Ok, So Ive been watching alot of Nostalgia Critic lately, so I decided to make a top 10 list of my most Nostalgic/best cartoon theme songs. Cartoons play a big part on my childhood, and I still watch them today. But im mainly focusing on stuff during my childhood, rather than modern stuff like Spongebob, although thats a very memorable theme song also. So, here it is. Keep in mind, your list mi...
Well, I turn the big 2 1 today. that means I can drink, gamble, get a DUI, all that stuff. Not really sure how your suppose to celebrate something like this. Party? Get Drunk? Party and get Drunk? Party and get drunk while bare ass naked with a lamp shade over your head, and getting it on with that one hot girl thats jsut as drunk as you are, than wake up and realize that she wasnt hot, but is...
No console is perfect, as we all know. Each one has its Streangths and its weakness's. Anyway, this is what I Like and what I hate about both the PS3 and 360. PS3: things I like: 1. Built in Hard Drive with every console: this gives devs the oppurtunity to utilize the HDD to improve performance and load times, but really, only Exclusives are going to utilize this like they should. 2. Bluray: Th...
(this is a follow up fo the blog post I made for "so you just got a 360 for Christmas.... now what?" and since lots of people are getting PS3s now, I felt this guide was maybe needed) So, you just got a PS3 did you? either for Christmas or on your own? Well, Congratulations! You have a great game syestem with lots of great games and features. But where do you go from here? Well, heres some thin...
Right now im juggling Assassins creed 2 and Bayonetta, than im moving on to Mass Effect 2 when it comes out, than Bioshock 2.
Congratulations, you now have a great games syestem with a robust librarey and fantastic online, but where do you go from here? What do you buy to further your console Enjoyment? well, heres a list that might help. 1. If you recieved a Arcade unit for Christmas, one of the first things you should do is get a Hard Drive. That dinky little memory card isnt going to cut it when you want to install...
A games console being about games? i have a computer for Twitter and facebook. the only thing that interests me is Last FM.
Ok, so alst week I got a hair cut. I got it short, and im trying to decide If i wanna part it to the side, or style it back. Ive heard from my parents and relatives they like it back, but there my relatives, there opinon isnt exactly unbiased. I havent really asked anyone I know what would look better, because alot of times, guys dont usually ask other guys that kinda stuff. Not sure what women...
It really depends on the game. If its a full retail game that I can get on disc, ill get it on disc. but if its something I wont be able to get anywhere else and/or I can, but its more convienant or its cheaper to Download, ill download it.
