I'm saying fuck you to my numbness and updating :3

The only news I have is that there's been some sort of leak of posters from different stores for a 360 price cut, so important!

Recent releases:

Dissidia: Final Fantasy (PSP) Fuck yeah, final fantasy! I wish I had a PSP :c
Batman: Arkham Asylum (360, PS3) My Brit. Lit. teacher was talking about Batman today :/
Raven Squad: Operation Hidden Dagger (360, PC) Kick-ass name, "Operation Hidden Dagger"!
Warriors Orochi 2 (PSP) I don't know, nice cover I guess
Mana Khemia 2: Fall of Alchemy (PS2) Another cool title, plus it's a fucking cute RPG, what's not to like?

Ok, back to anxiety and resentment.

Anyway, here's a video of Genghis Tron from 2006 performing Ride The Steambolt, fucking insane.

Once again, nothing interesting enough for me to write about as of right now :c

Heavy head and empty thoughts...time for some gaming news :/

Uncharted 2: Among Thieves finally has an official release date: October 13th. I still have no PS3, but if I did, I would definitely be looking forward to this game. I'll probably buy one around Christmas time :)

It seems we're getting closer to an Xbox handheld gaming system, in a recent interview with Kikizo, Shane Kim discussed it's just a question of when.

Recent releases ;)

Best Buy has announced they are offering a new PS3 bundle that will include the critically acclaimed Killzone 2 and Metal Gear Solid 4, all for $400. Pretty sweet deal if you ask me, I may go out and buy this next month!

That's about it :/

Recent releases:

ARMA II (PC) I heard this was not so good...
The Hardy Boys: The Perfect Crime (PC) For the lulz

Yeah, not a good week :c

Well, I've been playing Enchanted Arms and so far, it's barely mediocre. The fighting system is somewhat fun, although a little repetitive at times. The story is fucking horrible, so is the voice acting. The characters only have about 4 poses that they can only do in dialogue scenes :/ It's pretty easy at times, but the difficulty level rises pretty sharply from level to level, it's not balanced at all. That said, the game is still way too easy. The puzzles shouldn't even be called that, more like go to this room and flip the switch to unlock the door in that room. I still may write a full review when I actually complete it...

It was finally announced that Tekken 6 will be released on October 27th for the 360 and PS3. About damn time.

Best Buy has announced that they're going to start buying used games at stores in Dallas and Austin and testing to see if it could be a good idea to implement it in all their stores. A kiosk will scan the used disc to see if it works and will issue a gift card if it's in good condition. The kiosk's will also offer movies and games for rent. Sounds like a pretty neat idea to me, America doesn't do used games nearly as well as Japan.

Recent releases:

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (360, PC, PS3, PSP, Wii) More robots and explosions!
Fight Night Round 4 (360, PS3) For kicking ass and gloating.
Overlord II (360, PC, PS3) Who doesn't want to be a goddamned overlord?
Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor (DS) I love RPG's, what can I say?
