    Shenmue

    I know, I know...too soon for celebration.
  2. Shit! This better be out really frickin' soon cuz I am so ready to platinum this game.
  3. How 'bout that Demon's Souls!! Winter Solstice still in full effect. Coming Monday ....too bad I lent out my copy
  4. I just gotta say that this past episode (10) is probably the best one this season. While slow at first, it gradually heated up. I do have to agree with Panch that certain characters don't feel like themselves but the new ones like Lumen (Styles has been excellent) and Chase (to this point) have been played out really well. Let's hope this season ends with a bang like the last one. Two more episodes to go.
  5. And at first,I was all like... ..yeah, that about covers my range of emotions. Maybe next year!
  6. Wow really? Never played 3? Best one in the series. I got 4 if you wanna give that a whirl. 1)As for Heavenly Sword, yeah, it was good, just not great and quite frankly never came close to GoW 2 in the gameplay department (I think). 2)While I'm not hating on the game (yet...), I gotta throw my 2ยข out there on the design choice. 3)Yeah, the whole hair thing going from black to white is a bit intriguing but the overall feel is just not there for me. I mean, if Dante is this emo, I can't begin to imagine Vergil. Again:
  7. Look at that! LOOK AT THAT!! THAT IS NOT NOT DANTE!!! Dude, he looks like Rihanna after Chris Brown got done with her. Wow. I love DMC but his is utter disappointment.
  8. At first glance, I was like "Oooh". Once I realized she talks (albeit nonsense), I don't want to look at her anymore. I DO, but I won't. Shouldn't have clicked that youtube link. Besides, she reminds me of someone else. Yeah, I'm gonna go look at that 'someone else' some more.
  9. Finally. After starting my character over twice, I got that Platinum. -__-
  10. Excellent flick. I patiently await its sequels.
  11. Tekken (2010) [DVD] D+ Terrible. Terrible fucking movie. Cheap effects. Corny dialogue. Horrendous delivery. Laughable costumes. Atrocious sountrack. And that's just five minutes into the movie, folks. Oh, and don't even get me started on the story. I can't knock it completely though. Tamlyn Tomita does an acceptable job in her short-lived depiction of Jun Kazama. Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa was a decent Heihachi and Ian Anthony Dale stood out as a some-what badass Kazuya... some-what. Oh yeah, Luke Goss as Steve Fox was ok too... except he's bald and doesn't really box. Everyone else just looked the part (barely in some cases and not at all in others) and not much was contributed to their respective characters. Some of the choreography was decent but overall it's easy to see why it didn't even make it to theaters (except in Japan). While no where near as bad as The Legend of Chun-Li, this movie can at least be viewed for some of the fights and a gratuitous amount of ass shots via Christie Monteiro. But even then, view at your own risk. As a semi Tekken fan, I didn't want to see it, I felt like I had to. It kinda hurt. Where the hell were Paul, King and Kuma??
  12. I have Away We Go sitting on my shelf and i have yet to see it. i have to give it a shot at some point.

  14. From Friday to Sunday, I woke up promptly at 11 a.m. to shower, make some food, wake up little brother up (because he didn't want to miss it either), go to my computer room, get comfy, and blast the audio while watching the EVO stream on my 23" wide-screen monitor. My brother and I saw every minute of it. These stream didn't end till around 3 a.m. and i was glued for most of it. At times I was yelling at the screen: When I saw certain top players go down against unknowns; udder disbelief: Then Ono comes up on stage talking about his next game...BUT SAYS NOTHING!!! He practically trolled the entire EVO audience with his so-called 'announcement'. The audience was not pleased. And I'm like: Anyway, when finals were about to begin, I kinda lost hope. Look, no offense against Ricky O., he's a great player and all but when America's last hope is this: you kinda feel like your ship has sailed. However as the finals progressed, things got good. So much so I was cheering for 'Pretty Ricky' and astound with some of the shit he was pulling: As the fight progressed, THE FUCKING STREAM WENT DOWN!!! All 30k of us watching burst in anger, flooding the stream provider with nasty hate mail. Twenty minutes later, the stream was back, a winner was declared and everyone was just let down. All we got was a half-assed apology and the stream provider saying the videos would be on youtube hours later. It was 3 a.m. so I said fuck it and proceeded to bed. So to sum things up, yeah, I was watching it somewhere.
  15. The "Boston Three Party"...I like that. "The Miami Big Three" doesn't have a nice ring to it though. I'm a simple man and I'd settle on "The Miami H3AT" or, to simplify things further, nWo: Seriously, they should just say fuck it and make that the new Miami Heat theme song.... that, or the .
  16. I forgot to post this while in momentary shock of "The Big Three" news, Hitler is pissed with LeBron's move to Miami. Really pissed.
  17. Wow. This is the beginning of the Heat Dynasty. While going to drop off my brother at work, I wondered what was going on at the AAA. That- that's pretty surprising.
  18. Wait. What? Am I getting this right?! You're not siding with Konami and winking over at Capcom's direction? Nick, don't get the girls excited now. In any case, there's always room at Club Capcom. Greet the nice girl at the entrance and make sure you sign in at the front desk. Oh yeah, don't forget to pick up the free Sengoku Basara schwag on the way in.
  19. How could you of all people not back Konami? You know you want to...
  20. Well this one was a no-brainer for me.
  21. Ah. Final Fantasy VIII. As pretty as it was, I could not follow that story as a teenager. Its not till I played it again two years ago where I was just taken aback at the insanity in this game. Intergalactic time traveling witches, moon monsters, obscure flashbacks that conveniently reveal that your entire party grew up together in the same orphanage. Oh Final Fantasy VIII, you rascal. Wait... how did this thread go from XIII to VIII? Someone forget to add the extra V?
  22. Oh man! I love the FF piano collections. VI, VII, and X are probably my faves (VIII and IX had a select few standouts). While I absolutely loved some songs in XIII, I hated most of them. Here's hoping they sound better played on some ivory.
