Kojima-wants to end MGS at the second game.
Tokuro-wants to keep on working on Megaman.
Kojima-works up 7 more games, latest one being MGS4.
Tokuro-has not worked on a Megaman game in ten years, latest one being Rockman and Forte: Challenger to the future.
And now this crap.
Just wanted to ask, who is the better developer? New developers should learn from this.
Oh, takin' out from all the seriousness, some AWESOME Gears of War 2 footage RIGHT here.
A site I couldn't disagree more with: IGN(Nate not included), and why I regret buying GTA4(and not renting it).
I've hated IGN ever since they gave GTA4 a 10, but it was probably a good thing since they started making me actually read reviews instead of just looking for a score. I hate the fact that review sites only live off by the population they receive from viewers. If sites started giving up review scores, no one would visit their site, even though it would make more sense. It would at least make people actually read reviews.
Now onto the real subject, IGN. Not only did he give GTA4 a masterful(a.k.a. PERFECT) 10 score, he also gave Metal Gear Solid 4 a perfect score. IGN gives a new meaning to handing out 10s left and right.
En quote by Hillary Goldstein: There is a reason why it's been a decade since we gave a ten(a little paraphrasing)(From The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time to GTA4)
En quote by me: There is a reason why it's been about two months since IGN gave a ten(AKA, GTA4 to MGS4)
I would just like to say, that I have owned GTA4 for about 3 weeks now, and here's what I would like to complain about:
*Driving-I don't really care, everyone has their own opinion about it, just like to say that I'm not a big fan of realistic driving engines(mostly because I suck with them).
*Multiplayer-Maybe it's just for the PS3(I'm actually pretty sure it's because of the online being free) but I just find the multiplayer to be incredible boring, possibly because NO ONE HAS A HEADSET, HOLY CRAP!
*Overall way the missions are set up-I mean, I like the actiony, fun, gun fight parts of the game, but please, I do not like driving for about 5 minutes so I can get to that action or go look for a cab so I can just speed the crap up. I also don't like missions that don't inform you that it is actually impossible to kill a person until a cutscene or event occurs in the mission. I seriously used like 10 whole clips on this guy but my bullets don't seem to be doing anything until I reach a certain destination.
*GPS-not because it sucks, or anything, but it takes sooooo much away from learning the city. I think I have pretty much learned everything around Broker, but any other of the districts I just look at my radar to find out where I want to go.
*Crazy crap NOT in this game that I used as a reason to get the game-I mean, Helicopter and boating rides are as exciting as I thought they would be(in a positive way), but I was just sucked in to San Andreas when I drove planes and jetpacks. Now, you can't do that in GTA4.
*And last but not least, the square(PS3)/X(X360) and triangle/Y button-There are so many things I really would like Niko to do, jump up to cling a ladder about half a foot above him, be able to stand off ledges instead of automatically jump right of the ledge of a building into the street about 3 stories under him when he could just stand on the ledge and actually jump onto the other building, cling onto the ledge of a building so if my jump just isn't long enough, I could cling to the building like a person in real life would if he didn't want to fall 3 stories from the ground down. And trying to get onto ladders is a real pain as the triangle button is either unresponsive or Niko doesn't know where the ladder is, because sometimes, when I'm really high up a building and I want to climb a ladder, I don't want to press the triangle button and then watch Niko walk backwards to his death as if the ladder was getting closer to him.
And pretty much everything I didn't mention didn't bother me at all. There are a lot of things I would like to say about the game that I love, but that seems to be a waste of time as the only thing anyone cares about are the negatives(that, and I don't feel like typing EVERYTHING I like about the game, but just because I might be pushing people the wrong way, I love the story. I actually care about the people that I meet in the game).
The two things I love MOST about GTA4: Riding helicopters(with a tail or not), and getting hit by a choppers on a copter(doesn't kill you, but hey, sends you back flying for at least half a mile.
*phew....time to go to bed....and, um, sorry for the three week hiatus.
Sorry I've been away from the blog for a while. I've beat Assassin's creed and overall I have to give that game a 9.5/10. I don't think I need to explain why to you guys. Well check this out, guy gets recon armor for photoshopping?(why didn't I think of that), Haze get's a 4.5(I didn't think it was gonna be that bad), and fine I'm interested in Too Human geeze.
After Didi introduced me back to Call of Duty 4, I started to get addicted to it more and more. At the same time I have also been getting my skill back. For most of my matches I got a K/D spread of +7 to +12. But my best game was my last game of the night.
And I also remember how it feels to get three challenges in one game. I don't know how I got hard landing though, I just shot this guy while he was in the entrance of the sewers.
Reminder:
Tango Down Kill every member of the enemy team (4-player mininum). 250
Hard Landing Kill an enemy in mid-air. 250
Extreme Cruelty Kill every member of the opposing team without dying. 250
That's it for today!
This has finalized it right here.
What is it? PS3 version of GTA4 runs on 640p. Wow. So special. That means the XBOX360 version does that too.
...right?
Nope. The 360 version runs on 720p. If you'd like to see other reasons why I'll be getting the 360 version, look at my newest post on VGNO.
I'm sorry, The_Conductor, it just had to happen. Hay, littlebigplanet is only a summer away!
Hay! Wats up? Have been gone for a while but I'll be makin' a LOT more posts now.
So, for a first post, Anime/Manga breakout! #9!
I have found the June 2008 issue of Shonen Jump Mag, and I have made found a new interest, Rosario Vampire! It's about this kid that accidentally enrolls into a monster high-school and has some weird things happen to him. I have only read the first 56 pages, but they are starting to get more and more interesting! And as always, I will have VNManga to help me get the full chapters. This series is ongoing, so I won't be able to read a volume a night, but I just have a feeling this isgoing to be good.
Oh, by the way, this is NOT a hentai flick, just to let you know if the preview picture screwed you up, is all.
Yep I know you were probably all worried about me, but I'm fine I just couldn't get on my computer for a while. HUGE NEWS THIS WEEK: Grand Theft Auto IV gets a 10/10 from IGN(best of the series!), Bioshock rumored to come this fall to PS3, I finally got my hands on Assassin's Creed and that game is so confusing. I mean I get confused like what I should do at times(save person on let them die), but other than that it is an awesome and totally not worth a 7.5(IGN). Did I forget to mention I beat Kaillif's gamerscore yessss. Oh and add my friend on Xbox Live if you can
gamertag:monkie dukie
He's my friend outside of school, and tell him Didi sent YOU
Didi has (unofficially) beat my Gamerscore!!!! W00terz!!!! Letz now all wait for teh official beat soon! All you need is a little less than a thousand more!
I've just been playing video games for too long. So I decided to use the money I get to go into this ju-jitsu class and try not to play video games that much. Doesn't mean I'm stopping just means don't expect to see me on Xbox Live as much as you used to.
Now FINALLY I will go into news of the week. Mario Kart Wii get's an 8.5 from IGN and it actually has awsome online, Brothers in Arms: Hells Highway actually get's some attenion yay, UT3 360 multiplayer footage was released this week, and yes there is an Iron Man demo on Marketplace. Live Fire Weekend for Call of Duty 4 so make you download that gamerpicture and next weekend legendary weekend (25-27) for Halo 3 so download the new maps and gamerpicture.
Ok. So, I went to my friend's house for some party, and I had quite an experience.
First, I tried playing the drums fo realz, and I have to say it actually kind of works! Maps works the best, of course, but Reptilia and Wave of Mutilation work too! I tried Dani California, the cymbals just didn't sound right though. 3's and 7's worked fine too!
Next, I played some Guitar Hero III(not going to talk about it) and Halo 3(I have officially lost all skill).
Finally, we went inside his uncle's room to play some PS3. I played two games.
Ninja Gaiden Sigma
Assassin's Creed
Now, I don't know if this is for all games, but why is there always this warning about something relating to the disk? I also noticed that there actually was a loading screen at the beggining of Assassin's Creed. Does it seriously take that long? I also noticed that the PS3 version usually gets a better frame rate, but quickly switches back to a slow frame rate(like the Xbox 360, except without the better frame rate bursts), which makes the game seem unstable.
Ninja Gaiden Sigma(the original Ninja Gaiden ported to the PS3) is also a fun game, but the level of difficulty is freaking deadly. I mean, I only died 3 times, but it is very easy to get yourself killed if you don't know what your doing(the three times I died, I did not know how to use the Flying Swallow). The only boss battle I had was a very, VERY hard battle. So if this is the first battle, I can't even believe what Alma is like. It is a fun game, but getting killed is tiring, as soon after the three times I died, by the time I got to the horsemen in the second level, all i did was die.
So, that's my party. I swear I'll be updating VGNO soon!
Ok, so here's the laydown.

Awesome right? I found this on WiiFanboy.com and it's an awesome story. This guy works on a custom stage as a proposal for his fiancee. He starts a game with the time limit on infinity with Mario, Peach, and Kirby(the fiancee's favorite). He turns off the TV and leaves the game running. He then leaves the room. His fiancee then comes and turns the TV on, and asks if he's in a middle of a game. He comes back in with a small box in his hand and insists in looking at the TV again. She takes a look, and then says,"Oh. Yes!"
Well if you haven't figured out already, Gloqwi has left this blog and went on to VGNO(whatever that stands for). I'm not sure if he left or if he just isn't going to write on this blog anymore. I was thinking he could just write the anime stuff there and stuff we(writers on THIS blog) would find interesting like video games news and so forth here. Hopefully he will take my suggestion. He mentioned on his other blog how you get a 4 month Bungie Pro subscription for free with the New Halo 3 maps. To bad HE WON'T GET THEM AND I WILL! I don't even plan on using the slots so whatever.
Now let me dedicate this video to my son who I hope is watching this right now. :(
Well I've been playing on LEGENDARY in Halo 3 with some guys I met in Team Slayer, but I found out the host didn't turn the meta-game thing on so I didn't get any achievements :( . I've been watching video previews for the Legendary Map-Pack and all I have to say is WOW! I mean it looks pretty cool with all the new forge objects and how each map looks. Well done EA I mean Bungie. I get paid ateast $25 today or tomorrow so I'll buy some microsoft pionts. Probably going to buy Halo 3 maps Tuesday and Call of Duty 4 map-packs, and MAYBE Rock Band DLC! :)
And to finish my post I will end it with this video.

Just watch it.
Check out the VGNO Feed for updated news on games.
Let's not go into the Savage vs. Amir fight soooo Ikaruga(one of the best Gamecube games EVER) was released on Xbox Live Marketplace yesterday. I played the trail and that game is crazy hard, well atleast for me. Fans boycott the Battlefield:Bad Company DLC because it's expensive, Variety Map Pack looks amazing, Legendary Map Pack in 5 days, and GTA IV is going to be amazing I HOPE!
