So I just bought a PS3 :/
Rayne | 9:21 AM on 08.06.2008 18 comments


Well I bought it about 3 weeks ago, but really just starting to mess with it an get games. I didnt do much research on it before I bought it. I didnt know the PS3 had about 60 games out if even an I didnt know that all PS3's didnt have backward compatibility. Well my fault for not even googling.

But, I didn't have any other choice. The 360 here is overpriced (like 500$) and while the PS3 was the same price by the time I bought an extra controller, and I'm scared of the stupid RROD. I live in the middle east prices are just outrageous, and if I bought a 360 I would have modded it and got screwed without the warranty.

So I bought the PS3 and in my haste was ignorant to the drastically low # of games. Top that off that I currently dont have a good enough connection to play online and dont have PSN yet.
And the new FF isn't even exclusive SMH! I bought MGS4 and GTA turns out GTA doenst work b/c I have an NTSC system with a freaking PAL CD and no HD. Yeah MGS4 is fun and graphics are great, but it's still the same exact game takes like 10 hours to beat and then its finished unless you play it again on Super Hard.....

Someone give me good news that ALOT of games are on the horizion or something I feel stupid for buyin it.

I do have good games I guess: MGS4 Rainbow Six, Resistance, Ninja Gaiden Sigma, and Assasins Creed..

Need For Speed PRO STREET... sucks!
Rayne | 2:45 PM on 11.26.2007 0 comments


Yeah another frisbee. This game is terrible. They keep releasing these sequel games on a yearly basis and run good franchises into the dirt. If i'm not mistaken I remember NFS on Sega CD being a dope game. I was proud to have in my collection. But Carbon was weak and so is PRO Street and the question I have is why? I mean is programming that hard that you cant add features or you put boring mini games into the game to drive it into the dirt...? I sit and think sometimes has beta testing been given over to 10 yr olds? Probably given to 50 yr olds with all the shit features in these games. Is it really that hard to find out what people like? Add some cool drift courses some neat dialouge and b00m! NFS could be great instead they take out traffic put you on a course and add the gayest mini games ever. BRAVO!


Seriously counting down the days until i can get an xbox coz ps2 is just so dissapointing nowadays Im so pissed at Sony for rushing the ps3 and forgetting their core customers but hey fuck the consumer right? it's all about the dollar

Smackdown VS Raw so... dissapointing

My first blog is going to be a rant, because i'm so pissed at how bad this game is. Seriously is THQ smoking the same crack as EA Sports are? This game is the most unfinished piece of trash i've ever seen I mean c'mon. The only new feature about the game is the stupid and I mean stupid utterly pointless wrestler classes. So wait... now I can do moves that I could do in 2007 but i'm limited from certain ones and some I can use some to become invincible.. Wow great.


The saddest part about this whole game (besides the roster being so old an inaccurate) is the one player mode or story mode. Pointless pathetic attempt that left me quite frustrated due to its repitetion.

What makes all this worse I have a ps2. I've been a loyal fan of this game since about 2001 and they make this product. An since only a few ps2 games are getting put out nowadays its even harder to swallow this pill. I would upgrade but until Xbox fixes the 3RL situation ill wait it out.

Anyway my advice unless you love WWE dont touch this crappy game lets send a message that we as gamers are fed up with the lack of effort these companies put into these 50 dollar frisbies.
