  1. This Manson's cover of Gary Numan's "Down in the Park." I just love Manson's version so much better...
  2. I just downoaded it, watching first ep now...
  3. The Brothers Mario is fucking awesome! Just that trailer is the coolest shit I have seen GTA4 used in.
  4. I am playing Asura's Wrath right now. Only on the second level but I loved the intro level. One of the first games that just goes all out. Big WORLD sized bosses and stuff. I love it and I was happy to pay $60 for it.
  5. My sister is going to that show, so I may magically show up, never been a radiohead fan, but never really listened to them all that much either. May just go to see what all the fuss is about.
  6. lol, if you and logan are representative of America then what the fuck is wrong with this country??
  7. Of course he is a hack, there are old ladies and kids laughing at his jokes. I just want the UK/European opinion of him. Do they just love him for some fucked up reason or is he like the Bob Hope that's says cunt and fuck, or what?
  8. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/46499162/ns/technology_and_science-science/#.T0Z2MfFKRLc And so it begins....
  9. Also, playing the Unit 13 demo showcases how the touchscreen can be used to good effect in a shooter game. Anything you want to pick up, or disarm a bomb, or unlock a door, or even reload or switch weapons is all done on the touch screen. It actually becomes really intuitive and handy to just press a little icon on the screen to reload or do whatever, I like it a lot.
  10. How is feeding chickens and cows to lions and tigers sad? You know in another eastern country a little below China, you can pay to machine-gun and grenade live chickens and cows.
  11. Quick call to Sony got the freezing problem solved and fixed.
  12. I have that EXACT same problem with Mario Kart, it kills my hands quick! So far though I haven't noticed anything like that with the Vita. Can't say I have played for hours on end, but it is very quickly evident with Mario Kart, and so far not evident at all with the vita. As for the sticks themselves they feel good to me. Maybe a little small, but I don't feel like I am going to snap them off or anything like that. Yeah I think this is more of the first wave of games utilizing everything it can just to show you what you can do with the Vita. I think that the second analog stick will be the most used new feature and everything else will fall to the wayside except every so often when a developer finds a unique and fun use for something. I just hate being forced to use it, and not having another "normal" option made available. It was just very disheartening to go to my download list and see soooo many "Ps Vita can not download" next to just about every game. Then I get to my PSP downloaded games and stuff like Persona and God of War I can play, but not Phantasy Star Portable, or the psp Katamari game. There just really isn't a rhyme or reason I can see to why certain psp games can be played and other ones can not be played. I sure hope they get the ps1 games running soon, as that is like number 2 or 3 on why I want a psp/vita. No I haven't, I will check it out and get back to you though. I will end up getting it no doubt. I will let you know when I do. I got Dynasty Warriors Next and Hot Shots Golf - World Invitational. Havent played the golf game yet, but was pleasantly suprised with how well DW looked and played. There isn't really any single player slow-down, but there is still a lot of pop-up enemies. On a side note, it just froze now while I was installing the Unit 13 demo and it will not turn off, reset or do anything now...
  13. Hell I watched this documentary on how 50 years after the Korean war, people are still being killed almost daily just walking in a field or forest from literally tons of unexploded cluster-bombs. Yet if one US tourist, was just injured slightly by some old bomb or something, this whole country would go on a war-path with metal detectors and xray ground readers, and claim this is the worst accidental atrocity ever! I don't know what I was getting at, other than to say the US is stupid most of the time. I just hope her message gets out there and makes an impact as she quite literally died to make it known.
  14. It is interesting to see how much video gaming has grown....114 titles was all we got for the Sega Master System. I think the ps2 probably had 114 titles released in a month at some point.
  15. Yeah she definately needs to impact this world, and I hope she does. Because now that we have elections, we seem to have forgotten that the rest of the world is having problems.
  16. Yeah look at her wiki-page....D. 2/22/2012.
  17. All right, I have played with it, downloaded etc, watched movies, and here's the two hour review. First off, most people will want to know how the games look and play. They look damn good, a lot better than the PSP ever did, and the gameplay is smooth, without any tearing or ghosting. What I have found is that I am still getting used to having a second analog stick. After so many years of so many portable devices only having one, I find myself forgeting it is there. The Vita itself is a good size. Bigger than the PSP and that helps. The touchscreen is nice and responsive. Basically it is what the PSP should have originally been. But I do think that maybe they have too many gizmos inside of it, just for tech specs sake. Touchscreen on the front AND the back. Tilt controls, Sixaxis controls, camera and speech. An example is the Dynasty Warrior game I got. To trigger musou attacks, you have to use both hands to tap the screen, which is kind of odd, and then depending on the character you use certain swiping motions on the touchscreen or shake the vita to "attack." Then go back to face buttons for normal attacks. Every so often you will be "ambushed" and have to use the touchscreen to defeat the enemies of the ambush. It seems like a gimick tacked on solely to make use of a touchscreen. It isn't bad, it isn't difficult to do, it just seems a little unnecessary. My biggest complaint about it was being told everything on the PSN will be able to be used on it, which just is a lie. No PSN only games work, no ps1 or ps2 games work, and only about half of my old psp games are able to be played on it. I don't know if it is something like the 360 and original xbox games, and they will patch it later and make more games available. So right now the main thing I would say to wait on is the list of games to play for it. It is a SOLID piece of tech, everything works and works well. There just isn't a whole lot to do with it, especially if you are new to PSP/PSN/Sony. Think of it kinda like the 3DS when it first came out. It was neat, it worked fine, just there wasn't a whole lot to play, but at least all the old ds games worked with it. EVen if you own every psp game as a download, you will be able to play about half of them.
  18. You know at first I was thinking this woman is fucking crazy to go in and just report what was going on, but after reading the article, I can see why she did it, and she definately qualifies.
  19. Or you could just download it for free....$5,000....that's insane
  20. LOL The Vita games are essentially SD cards lol....
  21. Just got my Vita up and running, and already Sony's stupidity is shown. During setup it asks if you have a PSN account. You say YES and the next page tells you the Vita needs a software update first THEN link your PSN to it and kicks you back to the "Do you have a PSN account?" If you say no, it tells you it will set up a trial account for you....lol....
  22. Also BB should advertise the fact that they carry most games to rent the same day as release. So instead of paying over $120 yesterday for Syndicate and Asura's Wrath, it cost me about 5 bucks to rent them both.
  23. Same, unfortunately my wife has to go all mental and shit and get sent out to Arizona so I will be gone the week of release =( My CE is already paid for too!!! I want it now! Logan why can't you work at BB still and put out early copies again??
  24. I love how out of EVERYTHING in Skyrim, it has all been boiled down to that damn helmet with the horns...Woot I got one of those like 5 min into the game...
  25. There is an email going out to retailers telling them to tell people to keep their ME3 saves, because there will be more! Apparently 3 is just the begining of the "real" story. In other news, Fuck Origin! It will fall by the wayside when they realize NO one is buying their games and everyone is still pirating them. Or maybe they will find an even more intrusive and user-unfriendly way to make sure you will pirate even more, then they can bitch and get sympathy while alienating their fans even more.
