Got my PSP R-type game... and guess what. It came with the limited edition R-type Ship model!!!
To those who don't know me, I like to collect rare game items as a hobby. Most of my collection is actual weapons from games. But whenever I see cool little models like this one, I can't resist but to get it.
Ordered it from Amazon the second you posted the blog with the ship model, also, the game plays with my old custom firmware hacked psp. I bought Patapon and still cant play it :(
I will model the ship hopefully sometime today, and ill post it. Im one of the many that remembers how much we played Rtype when we were kids, fencing off the cyber aliens.
wow, honestly It looks funny but also its a direct hit to the little Ninty fan inside of me. I wouldn't mind if Rare blew up the latest mario style 3D character, but not the old school pixel version... It's like my kid child hood honor symbol being decapitated. Literaly, Banjo Kazooie, once a loyal Nintendo game, now belongs to Microsoft, comes back with a backlash to shot Mario's head off o_O; yea just a simple inside game joke, but still, something about this gif animation hits that little ninty side of me.
What does it all meaaaaaannn!?!?! Well honestly they can't get 20/10 no can they? right?
I didn't know Cnet was so cheap... $11 per share? wow, looks like they weren't doing to well as a whole company. Just did a quick Company Pyramid search, and sitting on top of it all, is all powerful General Electric. So what does this all mean? just like Reaprars existence in web blogs, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!!!
-------------

fix that cancer of yours? Correct me if im wrong but, in this past 2 weeks, there has been almost 1 to 2 RedRingers per day in Dtoid, and showing a increasing rate. And here we have Microsoft acting like everything is good, smiling, chilling, making money, their system is selling over selling competition, the games are selling, XBL users keep spending 50$ a year, so money is flowing all nice and perfect right?
Then why wont they fix their goddamn console??? Look at the PS3, it has a Enormous Fan, probably thats what the 360 needs? I honestly don't know whats the exact fix but, from 2005-2008 there has been no form or way to fix it? Seriously, if Sony released new technology like the cell and BRD laser, and able to already reduce its size dimensions and power consumption, and price in under a year, Microsoft can't solve the RROD? I honestly can't comprehend that.
Why not release a new console that has the air space, the fans, newer chip/MB that doesn't burn out, a fixed DVD player that doesnt scratch the living shit out of the games. What? they can't make another SKU???
Jesus... they can make many SKU's but not a 100% nonRROD SKU... why? they say their making money, that their this gen's console winner, then fix this already.
Why do they keep making money of you when they fail at their services, how many more of you are going to keep throwing money at the moneypit just so you can play your games?
3 Year warranty is not a fix, its a stubborn way of saying "Hey, be satisfied with this, and dont worry, we will make allot more money off from you when your warranty expires" "oh and this doesn't count disc crash, HD crash, MB crash, or the Red Light of Death" (sucker)... seriously, I can't believe all of you guys with a 360 don't revolt to MS to fix your console fully, or give you a life time warranty since they cannot fix it. Or just don't want to cuz it would cost more money.
Sorry for the rant but one of my good friends 360 crashed while we were playing at work. He brought it so we could play at lunch time, the only time I actually get to play during the day and it dies on me playing... I was so pissed cuz I had some of the hot girls from work dig how I played GH, and then PEW! screen freeze, restart, death... Im pissed and this wasn't even my console... I felt so bad cuz now my friend has to go through the whole crap of sending it, and since it died while I was playing, it feels like it was my fault... and now this is the new joke at the work place... keep Crunshii away from games! he kills them! -_-
I wont Lie... and no, no Gametrailers corrup.... mistakenly comparing videos, zing! @_@!
Come with me unto this rule of thumb, what makes car racing games fun. All in one video.
as as much I admit I love GT5P and how my noengine/no tranny/stillunborn 3rd gen rx7 will probably never look as sharp and perfect as it does GT5, I must admit that GT5 is the most realistic racing game ive played. (Confesing I dont play much car racing games), and by saying this, I downloaded Grid for the PS3 (I think) but haven't had the chance to play it since im working 2 full time jobs and my play time has been reduced to practically a milisecond.
So what say you curious george reader, have you played both? which one is more fun to play, online pla, and what are the highlight of both games. After watching this video I am actually thinking of getting Grid, just not so sure how much fun it is.
I will admit something about this video dough... no racing game video will EVER!!! AND I MEAN EVER!!! show how fuggin awesome it is to show a HD dull car bump as the one shown above!
Call me Mr. Detective C. Just did a little research and found out that GT is owned by Viacom. Which if you know, Viacom and Microsoft are sucking each others rears... Well nothing new here right? but how far does the rabbit hole go?
Im pretty sure not all of their videos (well honestly, who knows) edited with the PS3 being either dubbed down, or even using the PS3 version with the logo replaced by the 360. And other sources have hit the web giving a bit more info:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GameTrailers
"On May 11, 2008, GameTrailers was caught doctoring a PS3 vs 360 video. Some have alleged this is due to Microsoft paying GameTrailers."
hmmm tsk tsk tsk, and here I just thought brainderailment was just hatting on GT for stealing his GF, now I know why brain. Oh and you, the 360 naysayer want proof?

(oh please click on the video!)
Dec. 19, 2007 > Financial terms of the agreement were not disclosed, but the companies said the deal has a projected base value of $500 million for the first five years.
"Viacom, Microsoft ink advertising partnership Deal valued at $500 million also involves content promotion"
NEW YORK - Media conglomerate Viacom Inc. and Microsoft Corp. said Wednesday they signed a deal worth at least $500 million to work together on advertising and promotion for TV shows and video games.
Also, Viacom switched from Google to Microsoft basing on this deal. Microsoft will be in complete charge of all marketing assets of Viacom for the next 5 years or so.
So... knowing Micro$oft I can bet you some dirty socks that allot of rigging has been going on. Specially on multi platform games... I remember seeing Oblivion review (dont remember if it was GT) looking better on the 360 than PS3, which I thought, well, probably the dev's did more on the 360 version than the PS3. However, when I actually played the game, it was backwards... I saw the 360 being just a tad less quality from the PS3 version after playing both. But back then I wasn't in Destructoid or any gaming blog, so I never made a post about it. But now that I see this, it makes me wonder... how many times has this been done...
$500,000, you can bet your Granpas soul some of it is buffing GameTrailers. If you watch the video, Phillippe Dauman says allot of it will go into publicity marketing for the xbox video game division.
So... apple pie anyone? you will need something tasty after reading this.
I was heading to my friends house, which is by one of Miami's most excellent areas, (calle 8 and 27 ave) where you can see the beauty of the night, as long as you are looking with your eyes closed. So on my way to my friends house, he said he was hungry so I stop by the McDonalds around that area, get 2 combo's and as soon as I pay the cashier, this stupid hooker comes out of the blue, hits the front of the car as she continues walking to me while sayinig: "al fin Te encontre maricon, te encontre" meaning, "finally found u u f??" as I stared amazed the biggest "WTF is wrong with this bish" was popping in my head, when she grabs my arm and scratches me, I quickly reacted and slammed a punch in her face, she quickly landed against the McDonalds cashier window with the cashier looking at me like "wtf is going on!?" I put my car on first and drove out of there with 4 fingernail scars on my left arm to my friends house...
So moral of the story? Punching hookers is only fun in GTA4. In real life, punch them before they can grab you...

Well I should correct the title. Should be more like, "You are a gamer? then your a mass murdered!" according to Beck's and JT's latest video game bashes. Yea i'm kinda getting tired of all the bashing video games are having when movie industry and NRA are laughing their ass off making profits while video games get the full blame. oh yea, and our president/VP on a bloody war for oil.
Seriously, if news anchors are taking their sweet air time from actual news where we the people are dying non stop and guns are selling in places to thugs, little kids, killers or anyone with 5 bucks in their wallet, then I think there is a problem in that judgment. Yea I agree little kids shouldn't play violent video games, but they, they shouldn't be watching porn either, or stealing stuff from their family members, or being mischievous, or parents shouldn't have sex until their child is old enough to understand how parents love each other, otherwise they might end up being rapers.
I would totally love to send them a clear message of, "Hey Fuckheads, why don't you waste your breath on a more effective speech?" Like, how about banning guns from pawn shops or getting rid of the NRA, how about ending the war?. How can we teach kids about not being violent from video games when they are going out being violent on their own? or taken to war cuz the President forces the world into war for his oil profits? Now that is messed up, so before focusing so much energy in hating video games, how about turning it into where it would actually make a difference.
Shit you know what, I don't know if you guys played that Civilization game that shows you how the world would have been if Germany or japan would have won world dominance. How about we make a game showing how messed up our world is, and to win would be correcting all the wrong shit thats happening, and put all the flamers like JT, Beck, Hillary, Bush, and whoever else bishes at games to be in that game as big bosses? Shoot them with the Simpsons Hippy flower gun of love! Now that would be educational material.
