Cblogs of 5/16/09 + SilverDragonisms
CblogRecaps \| 11:54 PM on 05.16.2009	12 comments

I've been doing the weekend cblog recaps for about 5 or 6 months now, and let me tell you I have seen some really shitty weekends. It's not that the weekend cblogs are typically bad, but not a lot of people blog on the weekends, and those who do typically write pretty mediocre stuff which a lot of the time is boring to read. Imagine my surprise then when I logged on today to discover a multitude of incredibly written, extremely interesting blogs. I was blown away. As you can see below I have listed a whole bunch of well written blogs in the top sauce section, which I think everyone should check out. Suffice to say, I would just like to thank all of the people who wrote these awesome blogs for making my task as a cblog recapper extremely enjoyful and easy this weekend. Writing like this is just a constant reminder of how incredible the Dtoid community can be. Thanks again guys.

Now let's get to the recaps ...

*-Megatron0016 would like to see the ESRB dissolved and a newer organization be built in it's place to create and oversee a new game rating system

*-Dhalamar talks about his love for the Arcade version of Galaxy Force 2, but also his hatred for the Sega Genesis port of the game.

*-Randombullseye presents the Top 10 best video game references in rap songs.

*-Flaming Burrito updates us with awesome pictures of the new Dtoid themed Fighting Stick he's building. TOTALLY AWESOME STUFF HERE!

*-Discarded Couch Sandwich remembers the days when Nintendo actually created games that used both the consoles and the handhelds together to make games better!

S-Subenu recaps week 1 of the forum discussion about Video Game Canon.

M-Other Worlds Than These: City 17

E-Electro Lemon has put together a new monthly contest called Dtoid MS Paint Masterpiece Theatre ... and it looks to be an awesome contest!

E-ShiMuNi night continues this week with ONE EYED MONSTER, staring Ron Jeremy!

E-Tazarthatyoot wants to meet up with any interested Dtoiders this weekend in New Orleans. Anyone interested?

S-Anthony Burch wants everyone to know that the new HAWP about "Like Big Boss" which is coming out soon, is an original idea, not stolen from someone else.

N-It looks like Tatsunoko vs. Capcom is coming to the US. I can't believe it honestly!

N-Even more proof that Tatsunoko vs. Capcom is coming Stateside!

V-Kalakaua posts some home made game play footage of Demon's Souls for the PS3

V-Captain Foolage presents the first episode of his Halo 3 machina series

T-Bloodraine 2 is one of SuitCoatAvenger's "guilty games", games which are horrible, but that you love anyways

M-Check out this crazy Europe pop song about the Playstation by Eiffel 65

F-Could there possibly be a Call of Duty movie coming in the future? I don't think it's such a far fetched idea honestly.

L-Ion Ray has come up with a few new video game drinking games he would like us to play.

?-This blog is "uber" short!

S-What Takeshi said ...

F-Drunk blogs might be full of fail, but they are still damn hilarious!

F-I had to fail this blog because it teased me with video footage of the new TF2 Spy Update, but the video was removed!

Dhalamar

Woo I made both Topsaucetoid AND Failtoid. :P

garison

I love it when you get to recap an awesome day.

Dyna Geek

Every day I try think of something to contribute because I love people seeing my name up there, getting me a little bit of attention. But I have nothing to offer and that makes me kind of angry. :/

Dhalamar

@Dyna Geek : Do what I do. Write about a game you're passionate about. Fuck whether or not the game is any good. You could go into depth about how much you love or hate Super Mario Bros. for all I care, it doesn't matter. To me personally, it's not so much about the game itself, it's about the personal feeling FOR that particular game. And that's just one subject that I tend to stick to. :P Write a blog post about your memories regarding the first game you played and the feelings and excitement (or lack thereof) regarding it. People like me would read it and love it. :) Or if you're one of those Halo gamers, tell an over-exaggerated story about the first time you got killed by some sniper who was hiding clear across the map. heh

To me personally, I could care less what the blog post is about, it's about how it's written and the enthusiasm.

Dyna Geek

@Dhalamar: Thank you. That's such a wonderful way to look at it. I'll consider that. There are many games I am passionate about.

Dhalamar

In other words, and I'm sure a lot of the community will agree with this .. contribute. Fuck it if you think it's good or bad or if anyone else thinks it's good or bad. It's YOUR contribution in the end. I personally love the fact that my "cry for help cos I'm a n00b bitch" post got on Failtoid cos I have a sense of humor about it. :P I fully expect anything I put up to hit that portion of the recap. :) I don't care, if one person gets a good read out of it good or bad I'm happy.

TheToiletDuck

Recaps are fucking mint.

Chris Carter

@Dyna
I agree with everything Dhala said. If you're afraid that you'll get flamed; don't be. The only people who get negative comments for the most part are people who write 0 content and abuse the blogs. If you write anything, you'll get recognized, and odds are, it's going to be good coming from you! Have at it!

Cataract

Or, just don't write drunk blogs. They're pretty horrifying to see the next day.

Chris Carter

Drunk blogs=content! Don't listen to Cataract.

SilverDragon1979

The drunk blogs are always welcome. They give the cblogs personality and character. ;-)
