Played UT, used to play SS5 and LastBlade 2 (a long with SFA3) with magy,k'dude, and axl, but that was way back when. I should get my X360 soon and when I do expect to see me gamercard up and online ^.^.

Yea dude the story was boring as hell for me. Too random, and sudden out of no where. Also they didn't deliver completely as I wished, the trailers showed him and Toushiharu duking it out, and much like the Naruto Shippuden movie (trailer showed Naruto dieing it was only a dream and a mere mention in the movie) this movie ends up having a 5 minute brawl, in where neither Toshi or Ichigo do anything but much less strike swords.

Dude that's epic! You make me want to get my own bike ! Why did your arm hurt though? Other then that, glad it didn't strike fear into you like a scared bunny.

Yes, I can verify that he'll do something amazing in the future episodes, (that something I consider a favor since he was never one of my favored characters).

I saw 2 copies of this on amazon for sale, they where $100 each, one came with the entire game (cd/manual) the other one just the disc. Pretty crazy to think sh!tty games cost that much.

Some idea's on Sonic, and reasons I can't sleep.

It's 4 a.m, I have yet to complete my Math homework and because of this I am unable to sleep. I am also unable to begin my Math homework because any time I begin to do any form of remote work I get so pissed in knowing that after I'm done with this bullshit I have another pile waiting for me tomorrow! What's the point anyway? Even when I'm doing the things I love (IE: Writing, anything Video-Game related) it doesn't advance me in any other way besides the "Road" put down by man himself, and when I think about that, all I see coming out of my head is that fact that no matter how you see yourself the bar of human stays equal and your ass would never be above mine as mine will never be above yours. I'm just tired of the same fucking (Gamecop, seriously censorship is for guys who like in the back!) routine every day. Wake up (if I'm not going through a night like this one), go to school, come back home, eat, play games or go to a friends house and play games there, come back home if I'm not home and eat again, sleep or go through another night like tonight. I know that even if there isn't a point, life is much better lived off with you having accomplished something, no matter how small that something is, but even though I know that, my brain malfunctions at the idea of attempting a useless action when the outcome is not known, and if I attempt to look at it from a interesting perspective then my heart kicks in, and laughs at me for doing it for the wrong reasons. I ask myself "Whats the point?", and every time my body responds with the words "There is none".

Lately I've been discussing and re-beating the entire Sonic series with a group of local friends. From Sonic Mega Collection to the Museum Gamecube game which included Sonic CD (A game we all agreed disappointed but delivered on some level, it's seriously not "the" best or no where near "the" best Sonic game ever made as so many claim) . I am however the only one in the group to have beaten "Sonic The Hedgehog 06", and because of this reason and the fact that I introduced and sparked curiosity in the group (I mean Sonic 2 for the MegaDrive was my first true video game experience) I've sort of have become the guy you go to ask questions. The most common of questions is "How would you make a 3D Sonic work?". Well I'm listening to the Sonic 3/Knuckles doomsday beat and am pondering the answer to that question right now, and it seems to be impossible to get any Sonic 3D game to work the way it should. First SA 1/2 both did an OK job, but speed isn't as present as I'd like it to be. Second the Super Sonic sequences (which I've come to realized is something that is *extremely* important for a Sonic game to work) are mediocre. Third the camera angle is at it's primitive "you might die" stage (though updates shouldn't be done if your actually going back a step, I'm looking at Sonic Heroes and Sonic 06), and there are some levels that are trying extremely hard to appeal to the Mario category of gamers (Knuckles gtfo the Sonic series if you can't go back to kicking ass with your fists and not finding treasure like a fag). So how do you make a 3D Sonic game work, on paper at least, is it possible? Here's the scenario I'm running in my head right now, since it is the doomsday song I'm listening to I'm thinking of how a "Near Game End" boss fight would go about. Sonic is mid screen when the level starts, the level title "Robotnik's Spider Trail" appears right above his head as the beat starts kicking in. The camera steps out for a second in order to show a cinematic, and Robotnik is stepping into his machine behind Sonic as he says a one liner. The machine is a spider hooked up to rails, and right before the cinematic ends, the spider goes under the track that your standing on. Around your view you see sort of like a space ship texture, with windows here and there representing Earth on one side and Mobeus on the other (this has to do with the story I'm making up). Now Robotnik runs past you (still under you on the track) as you see the spider legs connected to the trails (your target to hit, there are 8 legs hooked up). Now Robotnik moves forward at high speed and this is where the speed part kicks in, every now and then a Snake head (a form of the snakes he used in Sonic 2 during the Oil zone) will come out and either shoot you or run horizontal across the track as a method of knocking back your rings, and with that, his Spider Machine legs every now and then have a tendency of extending up and smashing down on the track. Rings appear on the track every now and then as a means of letting you defend yourself, and his moves will be setup in a Mega Man fashion, hard at first but once the pattern gets down you'll be able to 1-2 the guy (just like the old school Sonic games). This is where the problems start kicking in though, the biggest one would be "How do we control speed?". Sonic 06 attempted the "Lets make Sonic run without stopping" approach, and that was horrible, I remember wasting 10 lives on the later tracks remembering every little thing because if you didn't know it before-hand you where screwed (this is the point that a game goes overboard). If the speed is controlled by you, then how is Robotnik's speed controlled? If Sonic is going slow, then Robotnik will go slow, and that will make the game dull (something no game should ever be). What if we mix it up? Then balance becomes the issue, if your going fast 10 seconds, then it switches to old school Robotnik fight for 5 seconds, now the game becomes a nuisance, this is worse then dull, because reviewers will do a considerable amount of bashing on that concept of the game alone. Camera becomes even a worse variable, sure you can leave it classic 3rd person, but chances are the player will occasionally be caught off guard in the direction that he's not looking, unless the Camera's fixed, and then the essence of "speed" becomes something hard to give of. I have a few views on how to tackle the issues, but none really worthy of 5-star, on another note, I'm pretty tired, so I'll continue this later, peace.

I just finished viewing the second movie "Diamond Dust Rebellion". Aside the fillers, which every week give the impression "We're almost there! You know! The end of the filler episodes? It's almost here!", yet tend to slice 1 question and exchange it with twice the amount as previous, I enjoyed the 2nd movie very much! It gave me everything I wanted visually, but story-wise, man up until the last 20-40 minutes I was closing my eyes out of boredom, not the need for sleep. Anyways you should all check it out, it's definitely better then the first one, and more enjoyable then the "Bountou" arc all together.

I assume the gameplay is similar to this. http://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/429765 Which is an awesome flash game even though it's only 1 level!

How can they sell this "Legally" is the true question !

New commercial plz!

Awesome game! Although so far it feels like it follows strictly with JRPG rules (Linear and an excuse to reading a book) I love the battle system ! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grandia_Online Anyone got news on that though?

Lol they spam the word "Free" and make sure to add a bunch of parenthesis around the sentences with minor details such as. 1.When you sign this contract your soul is ours for 2 years. 2.Customer service isn't a requirment, it's a feature, and we can take away features or make them as impossible to use as possible. 3.You will automaticicly be put on the "Stupid" list, in this list we constantly add "Stupid" people who are gullable and will continue to feed to our greed until death. 4.If D!ck sucking needed,D!ck sucking commences. 5.For every dollar you think you save by signing this contract you end actually wasting five more.

It costs more in the long run because there are more features to spend it on as well as games. Also a wireless controller + battery pack on amazon costs about the same (1 digit difference) as a Dual Shock 3 on amazon.

http://www.lingeriebowl.com/ How come I only recently (few minutes) found out about this?

It gave me a tiny giggle .

Even though it's cheaper the only 2 products I trust in wireless form are my Keyboard/Mouse combo I bought a few months back and the X360 controller, which playing wired feels out of touch.

What's ridiculous would be the masses that are unaware of that ridicule itself.

Playing Combat Arms, it's fun but I see it un-installed in 2/3 weeks.

Happy B-day! Don't forget to order buritos !

Dude it said 3 days left here ! Gamecop stop delaying fun new themes D:.

Well after using it all day I have to ask you guys, where did you d/l Chrome? It hogs more memory then FireFox, flash sites (IE:Youtube) actually freeze up my browser mid-video from time to time, and when I torrent it actually takes at least an extra minute to load pages when compared to FireFox. Me no likey, me go back to FF3!

They have yet to add neosteam to the gamelist....assholes

Well in a "speed" way, I can run FireFox and Utorrent without a hassle, with Chrome it took me about 2 minutes to load up the 1Emu page, and youtube vid's pause for about 5 seconds before starting up. Then again it is the Beta, and FireFox is V3.
