No. Even with the prayers of billions, you can never end me, Iga. As you can see by my glowing power of my semi-translucent ears, that I am unstoppable!
Watch in Japan on 31st December. The battle of the millennium. Iga vs Hamster. The unstoppable force vs the Immovable object. The battle that will decide the fate of the universe.
(PS: I pretty much recognize each and every one of these titles! Do YOU?)
WTF is up with these cases? So there is no plastic in those sections? The cover insert wont keep the dust out of game cases. WTF?
I've got a yuletide log too if anyone wants it. I dont think anyone does though. *strains*
Merry X-mas! X-mas fiends!
Santa delivered me not one but two copies of Spirit Tracks for Christmas. Now I have to exchange one for..... Mario and Luigi 3?
I played up to the desert world on NSMB Wii too. Seems like the DS game so far... meh. It's definetely harder though. Looks like ass on my 50" HDTV though
Another Code Wii, well its gotten very very slightly better. Its mechanics aren't that different from something like Hotel Dusk but when there isn't a compelling reason to be doing what you're doing it really drags. I mean I'm doing puzzles to distract a doggie, to find an MP3 player and to grab a handbag from a lake. Oh and trying to light a BBQ.
Wonderful.
Fallout 3 update, I've gone out looking for quests and found a few so there is more content. I think they messed up with the way quests are tracked and marked. Especially breaking up the notes, sometimes not marking objectives and not noting down important info or locations for you. Also the rewards for completing these quests are a little assy. A good conclusion to the mini-story of a quest is good enough. Some dude paying me 50 caps..... WTF? Some guy just saying thanks... gee thanks. One couple not thanking me at all? No registering of completion of a quest? What?
Oh and GS gave GOTY to Demon's Souls if you did not see that.
Heh. 50 Cent Blood on the Sand got the GS "Most Surprisingly Good Game"
While 50 Cent may have been a smash hit in other forms of media, his 2005 video game debut was a dud. Though its critical reception seemed to doom it to obscurity, 50 Cent: Bulletproof sold remarkably well, all but guaranteeing a sequel. When the sequel was announced in 2008, it was received with a massive groan from the gaming public, and the revelation that a jewel-encrusted skull, of all things, was to be featured prominently in the game seemed to confirm suspicions that Blood on the Sand was going to be a whole lot of ridiculous nonsense.
What a pleasant surprise, then, when that ridiculous nonsense turned out to be pretty darn good. The inaccurate, unsatisfying gunplay of Bulletproof has been replaced by responsive controls and a variety of fun-to-shoot weapons; the bright, detailed Middle Eastern environments are a big improvement over the dreary cityscapes of the first game; and the music is much more competently integrated.
But 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand isn't just a vast improvement over a poor game; it's an entertaining third-person shooter in its own right. The arcade-style scoring system is surprisingly engaging, keeping the pace lively and rewarding players for their death-dealing skills. Though the action and environments can get a bit repetitive, there is enough brash, vulgar attitude to keep things entertaining, and the drop-in/drop-out cooperative play makes it easy to enjoy with a friend. Running through ruined streets, blasting anything that moves, and earning big points while a great selection of 50 Cent and G-Unit tracks play in the background is a whole lot of fun regardless of what your expectations were, which is why 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand is the most surprisingly good game of 2009.
How did you broach the delicate issue of my adoption?
I think you're little ones would take the news well.
See, see what your son does for you papa Steel?
Did I read that right? Gamespot gave it to Demon Souls?
Wow. Colour me surprised.
Yeah me too. I figured they'd play it safe and go with Uncharted 2. Good for them.

Tell me to get back to rewriting this site so it's not horrible on mobileExpect fewer games."
Bah *edits*
Expect fewer games.

Tell me to get back to rewriting this site so it's not horrible on mobile^I'd go with that that. I'd say I laughed out loud during that more than any other game. Eat Lead was funny in a wry "heh, I get jokes" kind of manner.

RE: "The LONGEST videogame Preview of ALL TIME! (FF13), I can't believe I almost read all of it!"
That dude must have started writing the preview when Square started developing FF13.
That's also the same dude that wrote a near 12,000 word review of Mario Galaxy.
Fucking pathetic writing, if you ask me.
No! You're meh!
Animal Crossing is meh!
Fixed!
