Also, IN BEFORE 50 OTHER BLOG POSTS POSTING THESE FUCKING PICTURES.
Damn.
Also, why so square banjo? why so pixelated?
WHY SO MANY VEHICLES BANJO?
YOU PROMISED THERE WOULD BE JIGGIES AND PLATFORMING RARE, NOT SONIC THE HEDGEHOG RINGS.
All the transportation I needed was riding on Kazooie.
Hey Dtoiders this is greybush and I'm here with Aaron Greenburg and we're gonna talk about vidja gaemz and T-Shirts. Niero's contest got my creative juices flowin' (not to be confused with the other juices, like blood, and saliva.) and I decided to make some shirts. Now, none of these can probably be made into a shirt because they would be too expensive, but I had a lot of fun making them, and I did put some effort into them. So without further adieu...
This was my first design, I really really liked the way this one came out, but it could have used more effort. Still cool in my eyes. The back would say Destructoid.com of course.
Here's the second. I'm a fan of big font words on shirts so why not bring Destructoid into the mix? I'm not to happy with this shirt over all though. The thing I like about my designs though is that the color could be different if you guys wanted.
Heres version 1 of shirt 3. It's simple, and has all the people who help make what Destructoid is. Maybe listing the community members on the back or something?
Here is version 2 of shirt 3. A little more simple than version 1, I like this one more than the other, but still not as much as shirt one.
And here's the final design I just finished up a couple of minutes ago. I probably like this one second best.
Sorry I didn't use other shirt colors, it was more out of laziness than anything. I had a hard time finding blank shirts that looked real. Hope you enjoy the designs at least, and who knows? Maybe one day they can be made ;]
Last weekend I got to be around the best people in the entire fucking world, and had the greatest time of my life so far. Before me, Tazarthayoot, IncredibleEdibleEgg, and Riser Glen went to Joe Burlings to play some Halo 3*, Halo 3*, AND Halo 3* we had to stay at Egg's and have a Pre-Narp. The Pre-Narp, though not nearly as fun as the actual narp, had it's own epic moments. From ordering cookies to be delivered to our fat stomachs at 1am, to walking to some gay record store, and being stopped by a bum who thought he knew shit about comics. (Actually, that sucked.)
The most memorable moment had to come from Egg though. Filled with fail from the beginning, he redeemed his self by building a pillow fort out of a couch at Tazar's storage and giving me a quickie while we awaited Riser and Tazar's return. That event does not top what I'm about to show you.
You see, when Asians get drunk, they have magical powers from the nether realm of Sun Tzu's asshole. Egg, had one half of a fucking rolling rock, and pissed a masterpiece.
This was at about midnight (his camera has a strong flash) and he didn't even mean to do it. We were all having a cigarette after a brawl fest (I won)
Egg decided he was drunk enough to piss in public. It started off fine, he turned and let loose into a bush, but we were chosen as the next target. The fucker failed, and chased us for a bit, but then went back and finished up.
In the darkness I made out what the piss really was, a dolphin, in all it's glory.
Videos coming soon of the road trip and actual narp. Niggers forever.
*is not actually halo 3.
Hey guys, if anyone has been keeping an eye out on Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning like I have, you have probably noticed the complete lack of new videos, or information besides the "delay" and the announced collectors edition (do want) Well, I have your fix. I stumbled upon this 30 minute video that showcases the Realm Vs Realm PvP aspects that Warhammer is really pushing to shine some new light into MMO player vs player.
A quick note about the video, assuming this is beta footage, which is most likely the case. The graphics are automatically set to "low". Second, of course, it's off a camera, so obviously there's going to be a dip in quality.
Enjoy.
Now for my personal thoughts. The guy who is in the video doesn't seem like the best person to show off the PvP, although, since there are no other videos I'm not sure if they did this in secret or not. For one, the guy is a clicker, meaning he clicks the hotkeys (surprise!) The more hardcore group of pvpers use their keyboards, and it's usually a lot more frantic. Personally, the animations look very slow, i'm not sure if it's because of the fact of the race of the character, or the art style as a whole being more realistic (I use this term loosely) which handicaps their ability to make more fluid, faster animation.
Second, the combat looks very slow, and very "easy" With WoW, I felt as if something was happening every second, you had to be quick on your toes with the key presses, constantly moving and shifting your camera to see what was happening, or in my case, get behind the enemy to attack them. This footage, just makes everything seem so slow paced, I'm not sure if it's to appeal to a higher base of players, aka casuals. Or, this could just be because it's beta. Only the developers have had extended time playing the game and getting experienced with the PvP aspects of the game. The slow pace could also have to do with their level, (or rank in WAR) only a limited amount of skills and such are available, so the fighters don't have much of a strategy.
Regardless of these faults which I'm sure have reasons behind them, I will be picking this up on launch if I have the chance. I'm really looking forward to the innovation WAR is trying to bring to the MMO market. Everything will come together once I actually get my grubby hands on the game itself.
Alright, I've had enough of this shit. All these people posting their "not my turning point gaming rig." Well, actually, i'm sorry for saying "all". This post is directed to the people who do NOT need that new computer. I'm sorry, but it is ridiculous when you greedy assholes with Nvidia 8800GTS's feel the need to enter this damn contest, honestly. Personally, any computer that can run Turning Point: Fall of Liberty, should not fucking count, because that computer is in fact, YOUR TURNING POINT GAMING RIG Anyone with a 8800GTS or some shit that they know damn well can run Call of Duty 4 on medium with 60fps, does not need a new damn computer, maybe a new graphics card, if you want to run crysis, but a whole new computer overall? I've seen posts with people who really need this damn thing, me included, and it really just is a dick move for you assholes to lessen the chances of a more needing member to win the computer.
Really, you guys are just being greedy dicks. Seriously, for us gamers who want to enjoy the finer sides of PC gaming, but are unable to due to money or other situations, it's really just a slap to the face to us to see you post your computer that we would absofuckinglutely love to have, and then want to win another one. If one of you internet super heroes wins, you better make damn sure you sell that old one.
Also, I could get started on the somehow instant perfect timing of the influx of new users when there's a damn contest, but I think this subject would be way to easy to pick on. "Oh wow, I can win a new computer so easily while pretending to be a member, then I win, and leave." I know this is not all of your mindsets, but to the new users who have not posted anything before, except for the contest entry, fuck you. You know who you are.
Oh wow, we can throw people now? Well, I can't say I won't try it out at least. Saints Row 1 provided me with a good time while it was out, and the sequel can only improve it right? I think Saints Row is more of the cartoon Grand Theft Auto. More over the top, and silly. Even though Saints might have more violence and AIRCRAFTS, doesn't mean it will be better *cough*Storyline*cough*
Anybody excited to get this instead of GTA:IV?
God damn don't those graphics look worse than the first one? or is it just me?
I just got off the phone with Won Rorkmeng, a senior developer at Konami and intern at Microsoft game studios. The phone conversation went as follows.
Me: "Hey bitch."
Won: "Listen faggot, I got this breakin' news you can't tell nobody alright?"
Me: "k."
Won: "You know that game developed by the crazy japanese? the one with metal and solid substances?"
Me: "Yeah."
Won: "It's cumming. Hard. To xbox 360."
Me: "WHAT, NO WAY NO ONES GONNA FUCKING BELIEVE IT."
Won: "DON'T TELL ANYONE OR I'LL RAPE YOUR FUCKING MOM AND VIDEOTAPE IT."
Me: "Alright, when you get off work, I got us a reservation at McDonalds."
Won: "Soon baby, soon."
Anyways, yeah, he told me to tell the world that it's coming.
This isn't a joke, no april fools. Metal Gear Solid 4, for 360.
"If you're a Square-Enix fan, you're well aware of their penchant for including high-profile demos for future titles in current retail releases. For example, you will recall the playable Final Fantasy XII demo we found in Dragon Quest VIII. Therefore, we figured it would only make sense to see something similar with The Last Remnant, S-E's first next-gen offering that should be available later this year. So we started digging...but we didn't expect to find this.
According to a reliable source at SCEJ, Square-Enix has something big planned for The Last Remnant's release. Or rather, they have two "something bigs" planned. First up: they will be including a 22-minute playable demo of Final Fantasy XIII with the PS3 version of The Last Remnant. This demo lets us play through a section of FFXIII that doesn't occur until a good 20 hours into the game, which leads us to believe the developers are progressing nicely. Heck, they might even be ahead of schedule. Now, you may figure that this is the biggest detail we uncovered, but it's not. Oh, it's really, really not.
Not long ago, Eat Sleep Play confirmed what so many fans have been waiting for, and that's a Twisted Metal project for the PlayStation 3. They did this by embedding a simple code - easily cracked - during the end credits of the PSP's Twisted Metal: Head-On. Well, it seems Square-Enix is taking a page from their book because at some point during The Last Remnant (we don't know exactly when), we will get undisputed confirmation that the long-awaited and oft-speculated-upon Final Fantasy VII remake for the PS3 will arrive in 2009! Square-Enix just got finished saying that the FFVII Compilation isn't complete, and clearly, this is the final title. It's exactly what we've been waiting for, too! Wooo!"
The post says it was posted on the 31st. But it's super close to april first right now.
This seems like it could be a good start to the april fools shenanigans that the game industry usually pulls. Although, this is amazing news if it is true, I'm afraid it's just a horrible torture to us wishing for Square-Enix to confirm this.
We can still hope.
:]
