Thoughts? Should they also be asking for a blood sample?

Usually, Nintendo has created devices that print money, however lately and in the near future they will fail to recreate the hype that they once had for Wii/DS systems

The 3DS isn't doing so hot right now, and it never was to begin with. Also trying to get people interested in the Wii U is seamly impossible. As a retail salesman at Rest Cry, NameDrop and Cheers I can tell you about the basic reactions people give me about Nintendo Products. This post also started to turn into a employer rant on customers so just go with it.

DS:

Oh my Son's DS system broke after 2 years and we are looking to get another one. (How did it break?) He dropped it. (We do have accedental protection plans for the DS) No I don't want to spend the extra money on a Protection Plan. *a idiot obviously* (Seriously? your Son's DS broke and you don't want to protect it? Nintendo doesn't cover stuff like that and you have to pay shipping out of pocket) I'll take the risk *see...

So a small few of you remember my anger for Yakuza 3 losing content for the American release. That was about a 8, today I am at a mother ing 10 folks and its not going to be pretty.



Megaman Legends 3 has been Cancelled. THAT GAME WAS THE ONLY REASON I BOUGHT MY GOD DAMN 3DS!!

Quote:
"Unfortunately it was not felt that the Mega Man Legends 3 Project met the required criteria, and it is with regret that we must announce that the Mega Man Legends 3 Project has been cancelled, meaning that Capcom will not be releasing the Prototype or the full game," the company said on its website

"Additionally, updates of the Mega Man Legends Developer Room will cease as of today, though the North American Developer Room and its forums will remain open indefinitely."

Ok my fingertips are BURNING!

I primarily use my laptop when going online and use the touch pad to scroll. After about 1 minute of use my fingertips be burning yo.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cwyVV5_orBo

This laptop is fairly new; a Asus bought in 2010. Yet still I've experienced this problem before with other laptops and I've got to say its quite annoying. (maybe the finger print burner is on??)

I've now experienced this with the iphone 4 (first time using one today). I played infinity Blade for about half a hour and again my fingers were on fire, because I was winning. 2 seconds later they started to hurt again.

Anyone else experience finger gonorrhea? I don't want to have to use a finger condom but I will if I must. I speculate that when I get my PS Vita I will have this same problem but it will be worse as I believe it was mentioned that the Vita had heating problems.

Shadows of the Damned Review

By phantasyx 06-18-2011 01:53 PM
Updated by phantasyx 06-22-2011 12:29 PM
Shadows of the Damned is a awesome game that is not intended for everyone. SotD has excellent humor, great gameplay mechanics, and has some of the best pacing I've seen this year. The short Campaign, Load times/glitches and general Cheesiness of this game won't hold you back from enjoying this great title.

The story is about Garcia Hotspur (Terrible name) who is a demon hunter trying to save his love, Paula, as she has been kidnapped by the Lord of the Damned. You must use your trusty "Johnson" as you bury loads of shots into your foes. (Johnson can turn into different guns...he's not a penis)

I am a bit bias for SotD as Suda Goichi is one of my favorite developers but I think its safe to say that most people will enjoy the humor in this game or some part of it. Most of the jokes revolve around Garcia and Johnson's journey through on the underworld and they are constantly telling each other stories about themselves that opens up the character development...

headed off for my 3rd interview with the store manager today at best buy so I'm pretty sure I got the job.

The first interview is kinda like a screener to see if your not insane or crazy. I think I won him over by tapping into his inner geek and starting a conversation about electronics. From that point I used all my skills assessed from looking up other BB interviewer experiences.

The second was like a test to see if you have what it takes to be a BB employee. They make you wait in a chair for a hour to test your patience and see if you will crack and leave the area or store. After I finally survived not walking out of the store with my frustration, I had to improvise selling situations on the spot, talking to 2 guys in a cramped room, for a additional hour, and I had cotton mouth from waiting the first hour. They probably didn't want to hire me but they assessed that they needed to steal my inside information on GameStop. I agreed to spill everything...

The internet is becoming a ad ridden.

By phantasyx 06-08-2011 10:54 PM
Don't worry this isn't another E3 Blog or dubious question and this blog post won't have any links to another blog site that you just copy and pasted here to get more views which technically is a referral IMHO but I'm not a Mod, I'm just a simple man.

And this simple man can't get through 2 youtube videos without having to sit through a 30 second ad. Granted, there is a way to stop pop-ups but now there is shit that takes up the entire screen that you can't bypass. I can't even watch news videos without having to learn about how dawn dish soap cleans dishes, hell, nothing much else can change after 50 years unless they made a new soap that can clean the dishes for you and turn into candy. EVEN IF I HAVE THE GOD DAMN PRODUCT/VIDEO GAME/SERVICE I STILL HAVE TO SIT THROUGH THIS AD???

I'm sick of it and their isn't much we can do about it. I wish we could retaliate against advertisements, mainly in videos.

Also to all those wanna be, up-and-coming...

The KKK is the evilest, hate mongoloid organization our country has founded. We'll just agree on that for now.

K is the 11th letter in the alphabet. Times that by 11 x 11 x 11 because there are 3 k's. There is only 1 letter in KKK so add 1 to that total, The KKK wanted to separate blacks and whites (2 colors) so divide by 2 and post what you get.

Infamous Semi Review

By phantasyx 06-04-2011 07:28 PM
Updated by phantasyx 06-22-2011 12:30 PM
Infamous 2 has some great moments however it is not the sequel its cracked up to be. I liked the first Infamous, it was original, unique and their wasn't a lot a I disliked about it. Infamous 2 is a hollow shell of what the first one was. What it does right is keep the same formula as in combat and even adds melee which was missing as far as combat.

Infamous 2 is LONG! I've actually been playing this all week but never got a chance to write about it because I've been too tired. I'm still working on my second playthough but I'm clocked at about 20 hours for 1 playthough I've only finished clearing the first city and second city (2 islands in the game, 2 cities each.). The story telling is still good and I've got to say there was a moment in the game where finally we get a break to pop open a beer, I've been asking for that moment for a while in video games and we get it here. I know a few people are upset about the voice actor change but don't worry, you get used to it and...

☺Anime Blog☻ Samurai x Ninja Edition

By phantasyx 06-01-2011 02:25 PM
This Anime Blogs theme is about the Samurai and ninja. A little history to lay on you: Most ninja were actually once Samurai. Many Samurai were left without there masters (they are called ronin) after wars, conflicts or disbandment of their respected clans. In many ways a ninjas fighting style is often used to combat the weaknesses of the Samurai. For example many of there swords were blunt to cause swords to break easily when blocked, they used bombs filled with powdered glass, peppers and other nasty things to blind opponents and of course used throwing stars and any means necessary to kill and also escape.

This is a bit different from Samurai because they wanted to do all things somewhat honorable so using cheap shots weren't necessary something they would attempt. If a samurai draws his sword he must use it, thats why frequently you see samurai grabbing the handle because they are threatening to draw their blade.

OK OK I'll shut up, I know you guys don't...

LA Noire DLC Round-up

By phantasyx 05-22-2011 10:50 AM
Updated by phantasyx 06-22-2011 12:30 PM
You guys owe me $20 for this, seriously.

LA Noire originally planned on having a few more missions in the game. The DLC content was provided to their sponsors as incentive for pre-ordering the game however these cases were just simply cut from the game and later tacked on as DLC for GOOD REASONS (They suck and are hard).

A Slip of the Tongue - (Walmart Exclusive)
This is a Traffic cop Case where Cole Phelps must stop a trafficking ring. I've never come across a laughably harder and annoying mission. I'll try not to give away some of the story but you come across 2 annoying people you must interview that totally funk the LA Noire vibe. Along with that, I kid you not, there is at least 20 different clues and I'm sitting here wondering what the to choose while interviewing because they overlap and just keep piling up until I get to the last interview and I have 22 ing clues all of which could be right and only 1 make or break question.

Grab a old t-shirt you don't like, some old pants that don't fit and some shoes you no longer care for.

Go outside and place the shoes on the ground about a foot apart. Then take the pants and open them up and crumple them a bit, grab some pennies and place them in the pocket for good measure and put them on the shoes to look like you just took them off, then do the same for the shirt and place it on top of the pants. Find a hiding spot or a good window and enjoy!

LA Noire Final Thoughts

By phantasyx 05-16-2011 02:47 PM
Updated by phantasyx 06-22-2011 12:30 PM
So now I'm about 20 hours in and quite exhausted from playing this game with no end in sight and countless dlc coming so I'll give you my final take of the game so far.

LA Noire has refreshing new concepts and idea's, great music and beautiful scenery however actual gameplay elements hamper the experience of making this a perfect AAA title.

Granted there probably isn't a game that does every single thing in the book correct or meet our expectations completely but LA Noire definitely comes close. The concepts in this game will be translated over to new and upcoming titles as it perfectly creates the detective "feel" and solving a case gives the user complete control over the outcome based on choices and mistakes. I would say this detective style gameplay will be copied like RE4's over the shoulder gameplay it will become a big hit with gamers and I commend LA Noire for making it that good.

Most people will continue playing for the excellent...

I'm still pushing through the game and I actually like it so far. For people who are still left in the dark like I was before I played the game, here are some things to take note of:

This game does not have heavy shooting in it. There are some missions that will need you to gun down people but its really watered down, don't expect RDR fun or RE here, its more for certain situations. The only other game I can compare this to is like heavy rain except its not linear at all. You don't get a neat little map with all the clues and making mistakes effects your experience. You will get upset if you are a perfectionist as you will not get every question or section right which will effect your "Stats" or experience points.

You really need to do some NON-Linear detective work. Trying to tell if people are lying, bluffing or telling the truth is REALLY HARD, Finding clues also are hard in the beginning because they don't really show up on your map. If you get...

Fun things to do when your on xbox live

By phantasyx 05-13-2011 09:44 PM
Granted I only play xbox live maybe 1-2 months in the year but last time I played I had fun changing my voice on the mic.

Basically it all started with one guy impersonating herbert from family guy:

Then someone else chimed in as Sling blade:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZ10o...eature=related

Then I went for a stereotypical Latino voice

and we all had a blast playing a nazi zombie round in Black ops as oddball characters.

Is there anything you guys or gals do online to get just a little more fun out the experience?
