Noby Noby Boy on PSN. (YOU MUST GET!)
AngelsDontBurn 18 comments




I'll tell you what it is! IT'S GENIUS! I know everyone is still on the Flower hype, but screw that. NOBY NOBY BOY IS WHERE IT'S AT! It's only $5 bucks, so if you have a PS3 it would be retarded NOT to get it! This game looks incredible. Do I totally understand what the game is about? Yes, well, and no. BUT THAT'S THE BEST PART! This is WHY I got a PS3. Yeah, I said it. (Though I don't totally mean that, of course there are other reasons.)

If you loved the Katamari series, hell, even if you hated it. Give this a whirl. DO IT!

Also, video.

I hugged a gigantic Slurpee.
AngelsDontBurn 6 comments


I had no idea what was going on. I just knew I was scared. I tried to not dwell on whatever it was that was going on. Instead, I thought of this gigantic Slurpee I could be drinking from right now. A gigantic cup filled with sweet, icy, sugary goodne...

HHHHHHHHHHHNNNNNNNNNNNGGGG!

Thanks Amazon, you're awesome! (Gears 2 content)
AngelsDontBurn 10 comments




Today I received my second Amazon purchase and I received it early for reasons unknown. That purchase being the Gears 2 Collector's Edition.

With that being said, has anyone else already received theirs? I pre-ordered that Lancer + Collector's bundle and I was pretty confused when I received a box at work with my name on it from Amazon. I recall hearing Amazon sending games early but I didn't know it happened so often. Three other people at my job have already received the game from Amazon and I was wondering if anyone else in the US has received it early from the same source.

I hardly blog, yes I know this. I've been busy working and with the little time I DO have. I try to play games, and manage my time better with them, which hasn't been easy. I've hardly touched LBP and Fable 2. Well and I can't stop touching Fallout 3.

OH GOD AND THE L4D DEMO IS WAITING FOR ME AT HOME! HHHHHNNNNNNNGGGGGG!

HHHHHHHHNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGG!

Could this have been posted in the forum? Probably. BUT I WANTED TO PUT IT HERE! :D

Fallout 3 has gone GOLD! Well, kinda.
AngelsDontBurn 9 comments




According to Shacknews, Fallout 3 has gone GOLD!

For some reason Bethesda hasn't posted it on their blog yet, but hey, this is better than nothing right? Apparently the PC specs WILL be released within the next few days, which is some delicious news for all of your PC gamers.

Either way I want this game immediately and I can hardly wait much longer. The 28th can't come soon enough!

Also..

GOTY! HHHHHHHHHNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGG!



Update #1: I also wanted to add that this week on GTTV, 15 minutes of exclusive Fallout 3 footage will be shown. Fapping will ensue.

WHY UK WHY?! (Fallout 3 related)
AngelsDontBurn 16 comments


So I was browsing the Fallout 3 forums and then I saw this link...

http://www.game.co.uk/PS3/roleplaying/~r336335/Fallout-3-GAME-Exclusive-Limited-Edition/

I clicked the link, and then I saw..

THIS!


Is it sad that I'm trying to think of ways to get that BOS statue / figure? I seriously don't think I've ever bent over backwards so much for little bits of swag relating to a game that's coming out.

I'm beyond excited. I'm fapping, are you?

But feel free to check it out. :) <3

Vault Boy puppet; why can't I has you?
AngelsDontBurn 22 comments




Is it sad that I want one so bad? Is it sad that it's one of the minor reasons I'm bummed I couldn't make it to PAX? (Main reason was seeing everyone of course. :))

I hope it's not. No, I KNOW IT'S NOT. Because I want Fallout 3 SO bad and my god it looks phenomenal! I'm seriously counting down the days for that and Left 4 Dead.

Can it come soon enough? No, most definitely not.

I wish I could get one of these little guys, though it seems my only option is Ebay. Which isn't going to happen cause I don't feel comfortable paying 100 bucks for a hand puppet. :P

OH WELL!

I hope you all had fun at PAX, I wish I could of been there. Next year will happen for me I hope (I'll do my best to make it happen.) Though I hope there can be a massive gathering of some sort BEFORE PAX 09.

It's already been way too long and I need my fixxxxxxxxxesssssssss.

[NVGR] I HAS A NEW PC. But it has problems. :(
AngelsDontBurn 17 comments


So, I finally got a GOOD PC, amazing eh? Only problem is that it's giving me some problems. Therefore, I have a few questions. Sure, I know quite a bit of things about computer work, BUT, there are still a few things I need to learn.

Here I was, partitioning my HD and getting ready to install Win XP Pro. It was then that I noticed something weird happened, the screen started becoming distorted and all of the text was broken on the screen. I was not too happy to see this but I figured it could be some weird occurrence, so I shook it off. Fast forward to XP being completely installed and me downloading programs and installing games. It didn't take long until my PC froze again (except for my mouse) and the screen looked distorted / broken. Almost like someone spotted the screen with random white lines in numerous parts of the screen. I realized this would also occur when I GENTLY tap my case, the screen flips out and then it freezes.

I'm pretty frustrated considering I paid for this computer and it's something I've wanted, for a REALLY long time. I was able to play TF2 on it for a bit and it was SO fast and it looked SO good! Then TF2 crashed due to that popular memory error that still lingers.

I'm not sure what the problem is. I thought it was the video card considering the screen flips out, but it DOES function. I also thought it COULD be my motherboard? I'm not too sure. Considering I've never had a problem like this before. It's just weird that it randomly happens, but it ALSO happens if the case it barely tapped. Which makes me think it COULD be the motherboard?

I've booted the PC in safe mode and the problem still existed. I also opened the case and made sure the card was in the slot all the way and made sure no wires were loose or anything.

I'm not sure what it could be and honestly I want to get it fixed ASAP cause I'm SO excited to finally have a NEW PC. I have a few friends that could help out but they're usually busy majority of the time. On top of that I work from 10 - 10 Monday through Friday, so I'm hardly ever home. I just hope I can get this beast up and running sooner than later.

Also, here are my specs.

INTEL CORE 2 DUO E8500 3.16GHZ RET.
250GB SATA II 3.GB 7200RPM 8MB
160GB SATA-II 3GB/S 8MB 7200RPM HD
2G DDR2 PC6400 MEMORY
ASUS P5N-E SLI NFORCE 650I SLI MB
EVGA GEFORCE 8800GT 512MB PCI-E

I know I could post this in the forums, but I'd rather it be seen on the front page / in the c-blogs so maybe I can get an answer faster. Maybe someone knows EXACTLY what I'm talking about. Who knows. I appreciate anything and everything though.

One thing is for sure though. I don't think I'm ever ordering from CyberPower PC again, first order and a not so good experience. :(

YUH UPDATE : Pixel Junk Eden is awesome / I want Fallout 3 / I won't be attending PAX this year edition.
AngelsDontBurn 19 comments


You have no idea how amazing it feels to actually say "I've been pretty busy / real busy" as of late. For the longest time I was having problems finding a decent job but I finally got it. It certainly took long enough but it was definitely worth the wait. Since I haven't typed a C-Blog up in awhile, I figured I would take the time to do so before I went to bed.

Yes, this IS game related. Well, and not.



I want Pixel Junk Eden, pretty bad. I've realized I'm slowly getting addicted to the demo and I want the full version ASAP. I figured I would love it after loving Monsters so much. But it certainly feels good to get that amazingly wonderful reassurance. If you have a PS3 and haven't checked it out yet, do it. Just do it now. It's so simple yet so entertaining, it's hard to not love.



Tomorrow is Soul Calibur IV day and I'm excited. I didn't like III too much, so I'm really hoping that IV fixes everything I didn't like about III. I'm sure it well and on top of that it looks extremely pretty. Well and videos don't do justice so I can only imagine how much better it will actually look when you're playing it. It feels good to be excited about a GOOD looking fighter that's releasing, it's been awhile.



Also, Fallout 3. Wow. I can't even say much about it other than that. I didn't think I'd be looking forward to a game as much as Left 4 Dead and that all changed when I actually saw Fallout 3 video. It looks absolutely incredible and honestly, I'm counting down the months, weeks and days till its release. :)

God, the end of this year is going to be stupid good in terms of video game releases. It's almost going to be TOO good.

HHHNNNNNGGGG!

Also, under all of this good news, there is some bad news.

I won't be attending PAX this year. It really does suck and I was looking forward to going more than anything else. Especially since last year's ended up being one of the best weekends I had in awhile and I know I wasn't the only one that felt that way. This year is going to be 3, if not 5, times better than the last. Hell, maybe even more. But due to my new job (asking for time off is unquestionable) well and finances, it can't happen.

Blame the economy, blame my job. One thing is for sure, I know it's still a bit early but I want all of you to have an amazing time and to take as many pictures / videos as possible. If I can't go, I at least want to see as much footage as I possibly can. :)

I hope you're all doing well and I'll try to keep in touch as much as possible.
