Now, I'm completely unsure if this is old news or not, but I just picked up Elite Beat Agents (with crappy random stuff) for 14.99 at Walmart.



Since most places I know still sell it >20, this was a good deal for me. Especially since I've never played all the way through it.

On another related note, Can you believe Nintendo Power called it the best DS game released so far for the Nintendo DS!?

As of right now, I disagree, but I have much to play, and thus learn.

PS: I lol at Highway Star thanks to Rock Band ;-;

Being the Gamestop employee I am, I noticed in our new marketing we put up today something exciting for a Pokefag like me.



On June 20-21 and June 27-28, you'll be able to come in and download Deoxys straight to your Diamond and Pearl.

As someone who missed all the Deoxys promos for RU/SA, this is exciting :)

The only legendaries I'll be missing is Mew, Celebi, Arceus, and Shaymin.

I know Mew is in the upcoming Pokemon Ranch WiiWare game, but has there been an event for Celebi?



Sorry if this is old news, I looked back a few pages and didn't see anything ;(

3 GH games in one year!?

THREE!?

Not to mention GH:Aerosmith has 41 songs.

41 songs for 60 dollars.

With smart Rock Band downloads you could get way more for the same price, and wouldn't have to swap out game discs to play songs.

This is the biggest rape of a series I've ever seen.

Three titles in one year, not including the DS one.

I'm just amazed.

Wow.

NOTE: I started a post before this, and finally finished it. Be sure to check it out ;(

So, incase you haven't figured out by my few friends on the right there, the only people I really knew on Dtoid before the NARP was SteamyV and Sevink. Both of which I know through friends, coworkers, and even have worked with them before.

Well, on Saturday after picking up Darkrai at ToysRUs, but before heading to Wild Wings, I went to another ex-co-worker's wedding.

It turned out that SteamyV was there.

So, what do we do? Do we sit there and act like a normal person would during a wedding?

Nope. We talked about Comics, Star Wars, Star Wars EU (Separated due to the fact that one is essentially 10x nerdier than the other), Rock Band, EA, voice casts for the new Transformers cartoon, and pretty much everything that shouldn't be discussed during a Wedding and it's Reception.

Most normal people would WTF at this, but me? I thought it was awesome.

Sadly, not every wedding I've been too has been this awesome.

However, every wedding SHOULD make you think this when it's over:



As Steamy and I chatted about Star Wars, I was happy to learn he liked Boba Fett, for the right reasons. You may be like "What?", but I'll explain in a second.

There's 3 kinds of people when it comes to Boba Fett:

1) Lol he's awesome cuz of all da stuff people do on the internets with him!
2) I've liked him for several years, because he's badass.
3) I liked Starwars forever, and Boba Fett was only cool because his toy was the rarest, all you people are lame ;(

90% of the people who think Boba is awesome fall into category one. Sure, MC Chris made a funny rap about Boba Fett. Sure, Family Guy/Robot Chicken makes neat jokes about him. But that's not why Boba is awesome.

Boba is awesome for quite a few reasons.

1) He's masked the entire (original) trilogy. That may not seem important, but I remember thinking Vader was awesome. Then they gave him a face and he lost that whole "Mysterious Ass Kicker" vibe. Not knowing what Mr. Fett looked like made him badass, and made it more emersive when I was a kid playing with my SW toys. I could be Boba Fett, because who the fuck knows what he looks like? Of course, the new movies kinda ruined it, but oh well.

2) Him and his father are what Clone Troopers and eventually Storm Troopers are based on, both in genetics and looks. Sure, the Troopers can't shoot for shit, but they're some of the coolest looking troops in anything ever.

3) Vader don't fuck with him. Steamy brought this up, and it was a fucking amazing point. Think about it, if Vader was unhappy he choked a bitch. Not much unlike Wayne Brady.



But seriously, there's one person he never really got super pissed at, and that's Boba. Sure, vader could kick his ass probably, but that's besides the point. Due to respect, street cred, whatever, he didn't ever get pissed at Boba.

4) Speaking of Boba fighting, he's pretty much the only Character who can almost pull off the same shit as a Jedi. Jump really high? Fuck you! I got a jetpack. Lightning? How about flamethrowers? Force Grab? Meet Mr. Grappling hook.

He seriously has a weapon for almost anything. Which makes him badass at Rock Paper Scissors. Infact, I always choose Boba when I play.

That is, unless, I'm expecting Boba's ONE WEAKNESS:


Fucking Sarlac pits.

Well, due to this post getting huge, I'm going to break this blog into 2 parts. Expect part 2 later this week, hope you enjoyed reading.

PS: Ha, photo from the NARP:

Well, I figure if I have a blog, might as well use it right?

Am I the only one who hates Middle School Fundraiser car washes?

Before you answer, let me explain why an event that should be praised and cheered on is obviously evil.

Back when I went to my local middle school, I remember the cheerleaders would have a yearly car wash. I remember seeing the fucking form that the had to take home and get signed. It literally told 13-14 year old kids to wear bikinis. Maybe you're into Pedo-stuff, that's cool, but having to see a bunch of young girls in two pieces freak me the hell out.

It'd be different if they looked like this (not really underage):



But they don't. They look like this (I couldn't find a non-attractive young-looking girl on google images in a bikini, so use your imagination):



But why bring this up on a video game website? Because I was forced to see it on my way to pick up Darkrai yesterday from Toys R Us.

Luckily, on the way back I was too busy reseting to get a good nature to see the fuckers humping a car window.

LOL NEW TOPIC TYM

Is anyone else REALLY frustrated with the PA game's create-a-character? I made my dude like 16 times, then it would show him in 2D and he'd look different.

I finally made one that didn't look retarded in 2D, but I was soon pissed to find out that, even though he was wearing boots and you couldn't see his socks in 3D mode, you could see his socks in 2D and they were colored something stupid.

I said fuck it and kept playing however, and am quite enjoying it.

After all, what RPG has NPCs that say "Tck...run non consent.exe" and "HOLY FUCKING SHIT DID YOU SEE THAT ROBOT!?".

That is all. I didn't know anyone except 5 people, but it was a blast.

But, seriously though, for the longest time I've always just lurked on here, and was too lazy to make an account because, honestly, who isn't a member of like 500 internet communities now?

Well, after tonight (yesterday?, fuck it's 5:41 am) I decided it was worth joining one more.

Just a few things:

1) Why do T-Shirts always come in small people sizes? I realize Rockstar sent stuff that wasn't just L, thank god, but so many times VG companies refuse to realize that there's pretty many a person who won't fit in a fucking Large T-Shirt. I work at a game store, and every preorder bonus is always L. Always.

2) I like COD4, but due to the huge surge of TVs using it, there was a major lack of Smash Brothers for most of the night. Seriously, that's just not right.

3) There was barely anyone in Pictochat. Am I the only one who prefers spamming penises (Peni?) in a picture-based chat room while waiting in line over drinking?

Wait a second, yeah, I probably am.

Anyway, not-long story short; you guys were awesome so I've decided to spend more of my free time not playing pokemon, and going on a website browsing forums/blogs, etc.
