Now share your opinions!

Instead of portable hand held consoles, traveling companies should invest in to the WiiU, I mean look at what that person did!

Come on gamers, you guys got to admit, home console games feel so much better than the portable ones, well at least it does to me .

It really does seem hassle-free, hell why not put one in your vehicle?! , remember not to game and drive!

What do you guys think?

- Traveling MiNuN

As usual, another year has gone by, it is time to wish everybody a very Merry Christmas!



Open those presents and give out to those you love



Do enjoy yourselves, as for me, I can't ask for a better present than having my girl in my life



Let the snow fall!

Sanctuary taken from Kingdom Hearts 2. It is amazing what is sampled these days.

Do you know any songs like these? Do share .

Here is a 6-7 minutes video of 35 years of Rap/R&B sampling from video game music! Check it out, it is pretty cool especially when you don't realize till you watch this video.

One day, because of Halo 4, I needed to replace my 20GB HDD, and I figured I can try Kijiji because I did not want to spend an insane amount of cash for something I do not really want (Never used Kijiji before), boy, I was surprised, I got 3 amazing experiences to share!

1. I traded $60 to a guy for a 250GB Xbox HDD, not only that it was the FF13 special edition HDD, not only that, it was brand new! I was expecting it to be used (I dislike used products).

2. I got a Galaxy Nexus from renewing my contract, I tried to sell it on FB, CAG & Red Flag Deals, for weeks nobody bit, but the moment I searched Galaxy Nexus on Kijiji's search bar, instant buyer! Yay!

3. I need rechargeable batteries for both my Xbox and my Wii controllers (Nyko's batteries) since the ones I currently own are dead and do not...

Another emergency blog! Don't worry my emergency blogs will not impact the regular weekly blogs I output .



Yes, Nintendo WiiU is a great system. If you are a gamer in general, you should not be biased and choose to support multiplatform when abled. So sign this petition along with 13.5k others

This blog will be about my girlfriend.

No, I am not going to talk about how I met her, not going to talk about how much I love her, not going to talk about how beautiful, amazing, perfect she is, not going to talk about how much of a gamer she is, nope, not a single word about that stuff!

Instead I made this blog to promote her Youtube channel instead =).

http://www.youtube.com/user/PwerlvlAmy

She is quite active on Youtube. She mainly films her walk-throughs for the games she plays, some original creative videos etc...everything she makes/films is related to video games. She love video games (especially old-school titles) and is hugely involved with the video game world.

The amazing thing about her walk-throughs are...

SolidSnake86 is not the first user to say it, I do not blame him, but I thank Drclaw411, you made me shed manly tears .

I tried explaining by commenting, but apparently that is not working, so here I am, an emergency blog, why not blog on it?

This is whats happening;

You are checking CAG's front page for the most popular blog of the day


You click on my blogs, and you, along with 99.9% CAG users, end up with this


but I end up with this


Why?

Well, let me explain my blogging method first of all. When I get a topic, I usually make a blog on it and save it for a week that did not have a blog released by me (because if I release blogs...

For those who checked out my "MiNuN's WiiU Christmas Special!" blog, knows that I picked up the deluxe edition of the console on launch day .

One day I had a party of 6, including myself, over at my place and we played the WiiU .

It made me realized how fun it is with more people, and if you guys thought Wii Sports was fun, Nintendo Land beats it not by a single step but by a huge leap .

I also realized that the general view on WiiU is that it is not as much fun as the Wii, so I am making this blog hoping to change that.

Here are 3 examples as my friends and I play 3 different games of Luigi's Ghost Mansion within Nintendo Land.

Yes there are;
-Yelling
-Swearing
-Name-calling
-Names
-But most of all, laughter and fun

Today MiNuN presents to the blogging CAG community, a 3-in-1 topics special!
- Nintendo of Canada WiiU's Launch Event in Toronto
- A bit of Toronto's Christmas parade
- Pick Up: Wii U Deluxe edition

It will be a hefty one, but lets-a-go!


One day scrolling through my Facebook's news feed I found out that Nintendo of Canada posted ;

"Join Nintendo this Sunday at 525 University Avenue in Toronto and celebrate the launch of the highly-anticipated, all-new, Wii U console!

This event will feature demos of Wii U, giveaways and appearances by 'special guests'.

WHEN
Sunday, November 18
10 am to 6 pm

WHERE
525 University Avenue"...

FFXIV Online servers ended on 11/11/2012 at 3AM EST, before that, 2 hours in-game was spent fighting special event monsters which is described in the video below.

Near the end of the server, the sky turned black, slowly turned lighter red, the rumbling got louder and...came the ending

Welcome to FFXIV:ARR. Watch it in 1080p.

It has been a great two years, if anybody watched the first arc of Sword Art Online anime, the experience is one and the same (except for the whole being scared of death thing).

I have never met a better online community than the one I found on the Gungnir server of FFXIV Online.

I believe only 2 CAG members play FFXIV Online, 1 being myself and the other being Banjora, we are on the same server within the same guild. We had never talked on CAG before, but when we got into the same guild, I have to say I am honored to...

I learned that writing about the midnight release party and the un-boxing of the game together in one blog would make it extremely huge and long, so I decided to split it into 2 blogs, click here to see my Halo 4's midnight release party at Yonge & Dundas Square by EBgames blog.



Here it is, Halo 4, I have not been excited for any game except for this one right here, ever since I started playing Final Fantasy 14 Online, and conveniently the servers are shut down and getting ready for FFXIV Online: A Realm Reborn.

I say it, my friends says it, everybody says it, when you play Halo 4 for the first time Campaign or online multiplayer (I think the effect is stronger if you start with online multiplayer), all you can say is "Amazing".

Seriously . That is how well done this game is. From the sounds, to the feel, to the visuals, nothing short...

I learned that writing about the midnight release party and the un-boxing of the game together in one blog would make it extremely huge and long, so I decided to split it into 2 blogs, click here to see my Pick Up: Halo 4 Limited Edition blog.

I pre-ordered my copy of Halo 4 Limited Edition with Best Buy online, which means I have to wait for it to ship in before I get to play it, so, what is the best way to play Halo 4 ASAP? Go with a buddy of mine to pick his up copy via midnight release style.


Boy, was I surprised, I was expecting a 'Go to the store, pick it up, go to his house, then play' kind of thing, but nope, there was this huge party thrown by EBgames and it was awesome, it made me regret not going earlier to try out everything.
...

I was on that pre-order as soon as they announced the iPhone 5.

I think because it was pre-ordered, it was shipped straight from their factory in China.

From China to Japan to States of America to Canada, this little device been to more places than I have!



I have been using the Generation 1 iPod Touch from the day it launched in N.A. (a bit more than 5 years), and I have to say, jumping from the Gen1 to the latest is a huge difference (I finally have speakers!)

I love the fact that they do not come in plain black and white either, I got mine in blue, just like my first iPod, which was a blue iPod Mini.

Modeled after the iPhone 5 (Where the first iPhone was modeled after the first iTouch), it looks the same with its 4-inch screen (Does it matter?)...

I try to pump out an entry a week, but recently I haven't got anything to blog about (since all I play is FFXIV )

Anyhow, in till I get some fresh ideas, I am running away

Oh man, I have been playing Final Fantasy 14 Online since September 23rd 2010, and I have only dreamed of this day...when I cap everything!

You know when you first start, stuff like this is only a dream, till nearly 2 years after and today is the day for me!

All I can say is...goodbye stupid crafting and hello questing!

I am not sure if you guys have noticed, but I do not really play anything but FFXIV now a days, so I have nothing to blog about. If you guys have ideas what I should do for weekly blogs, leave a comment or I am thinking of just blogging my FFXIV experience....
