Caught your attention right? Probably a mistake from bestbuy, but it would still be nice to ask Square again when they are releasing it :-P.

Lenneth in Soul Calibur 4!
Lightthrower \| 8:00 PM on 07.31.2008	6 comments

Like i promised over on Tomopop, here is my Lenneth in Soul Calibur 4!

I know that the thing on top of her helmet isn't supposed to be there, but i can't get it off :-P. Also, i'll need to change her robe at some point, it isn't exactly like that, but it fits well.

Overall reactions from people on the internet are great! They totally love her! I think that's why i won so often, people were amazed at the character creation possibilities :-P. I'll be making Hrist soon after that with Hilde's style or Seung Mina. For now, i'll continue to learn Sophitia's moves to improve Lenneth. Here's another pic!

Feel free to post pictures of your characters too!

Worst trailer of all time!

Duke... Nukem... Trilogy!

You have to see it for yourselves, it is truly pathetic. Looks like a high school project.

If people think GTA4 is violent, check this out...

This is a video that shows Paris's ghetthos and gangs ruling the streets. Police have absolutely no control over what's going on over there, GTA4 is nothing compared to that. Yes i know that this is a directed video, but believe me, the gangs/ghetthos are really like that over there. Also the music rocks.

Wii Exposed: The Secret that Nintendo Tries to Ignore
Lightthrower \| 10:30 AM on 05.01.2008	39 comments

Over at gamefunk, excel made an analysis over which system sucks the most for games and the winner is.... the Wii!

"The Wii, released alongside the PS3 in November 2006, has seen a considerable 189 games released. Of these titles, a whoping 69, or 37% are complete trash. On the flipside, there are only 20 good games, making up a minuscule 11% - and of those 20, 4 of them are ports of last generation PS2/Gamecube games! What happened?"

Rock Band forum is down
Lightthrower \| 3:52 PM on 11.27.2007	5 comments

I was writing in the rock band forums after all the outrage and woah... the forum is down o_O. Is it because there is too much outrage or is it pure coincidence?

Latest news from the forum were that some people had their 100$ reimbursed, but they still didn't get their guitar. Does that mean that they will not ship any new guitars to these people, i dunno.

Seriously my personal take on the subject is that EA wants to drag the Rock Band name in the mud so it can release it's own band rythmn game and own the competition (EA only distributes the game... and probably made a lot of pressure to assure that the game shipped early for X-Mas).

about me

I've been gaming since the end of the 80's with my good old friend the NES, but soon after, her hotter sister the SNES caught my eye and we married. I re-married every 4-5 years after that, but that's unimportant.

Presently i work in the gaming field in Montreal and it's SWEET! Finally playing those games all my life has paid off. If someone wants you to stop playing games because "you won't get a job by playing games, blablabla" don't listen to them.

Waiting for: Final Fantasy XIII, Killzone 2.

Games currently sitting in my systems:

360 - Mass Effect
PS3 - Persona 3
Wii - i dunno, it's dusty
PSP - Final Fantasy VII Crisis Core
DS - Final Fantasy IV remake + FF4 in the GBA port yay
PC - I think Fallout 3 is in my dvd drive
