I have been recently been playing a little bit of Grand Theft Auto IV just because my friend got me into playing again. It actually hit me as a pretty interesting game after I started a new save file, but it seemed that the only thing that was keeping me interested was either getting new trophies or getting new weapons. It actually feels like a very rewarding experience after you get new items or features, which I never noticed or experienced...

XBLA in Brief Spoof: Small Arms from Kaillif on Vim...

I really want to f****** get Fallout 3 now. The first 30 minutes of the game has hyped me up to the point that the second I get $60, I am walking at least 2 miles to the nearest Circuit City and picking it up. I have to say a few things though:The character models aren't good, but they aren't AS BAD as Oblivion.People were right, you do get desperate in the game, sometimes, especially when you have no med-packs or bullets, you really want to avoid almost every enemy.VATS is...thank, god...NOT the perfect kill-everything button,...

Sorry I wasn't here to celebrate my blog's first anniversary/birthday on December 20th of last year when I finally decided to start this shindig. Now it's time to set some goals for next year:1.At LEAST a hundred posts before my baby's second birthday.2.Don't burn out.I combined two things that will probably never work out with each other, but are going to have to work out. I'll start right about...now.Oh, and please start to support my site by clicking on a...

I just bought two new video games, Call of Duty 5 World at War and Cabela's Dangerous Hunts 2009. One you probably have heard of and one you probobly havent. but its strange that I think that these two games are about equal. for starters, and dont lie to yourselves, if youve played World at War you know by now that its a little overrated. Its a good game and all, i just dont think that its worhty of all the hype its getting just because of the franchise. In almost every regard Treyarch just tore off Infinity Ward's work and...

It’s the same question I’m asking myself. I can watch 90+ episodes of Naruto in a week then finally burnout, but I can’t watch a little more then 25 episodes of Code Lyoko in about a month and THEN BURNOUT?!?!It’s probably because my temporary internet provider is probably one of the slowest piece of $|-|1Ts I have EVER used. When I was watching all my Naruto episodes, I only had to wait about a minute for the video to buffer enough so I didn’t have to stop in the middle of the episode. Currently, it takes about 10 minutes for...

Remember the first posts on VGNO close to a year ago? Well, in one of those posts, I posted Armake21's review of Halo 3. I wanted to go back and see his videos again, and I found out his profile was deleted, so I spent about 20 minutes trying to find his new videos(because EVERYONE does that), and I found out that many people(including me)compare Armake21 to AVGN, which I think is really cool, because he doesn't seem to get paid or doesn't seem to be a very large celebrity either, even though his reviews are just as great. I...

Thanks to a recent RedRant podcast I listened to a few days ago, I found a nice video podcast/show that is pretty funny and has some good humor. It is called Awesome Video Games, and it’s about some kids that are played by 20-something year olds that are in the 8-bit era and a dad(also played by a 20-something year old with a fake mustache) which is really funny. What is also really cool is the camera work, as the camera zooms in and barrel-rolls around their faces in a really cool way(since the cameraman knows the script)....

Ok, if you ever have been on the homepage on DeviantArt.com, you probably have already seen a few of Bleedman’s pics but have never noticed it. Bleedman draws a lot of fan pics, and just as much original drawings, too. From what I have seen from his pictures, is that he takes a lot of cartoon shows and draws them in a style that makes it look like something like a professional manga, but still keeps the appearance of the original characters....

Yay! Time for a progress report in Code Lyoko.Skipped Episode 24 straight to 25 because I kind of got tired of the filter but the concept of episode 25 sounds pretty cool and I wanted to know how they would solve that. After watching about the first 15 episodes I REALLY wanted to watch Code: Earth where the series actually takes a dive for an actual plotline. I really have nothing else to say about the show but I think I will have more...

...

I have nothing else to write about, so let's talk about karaoke parties!Well, I'm at someone's house right now, bored out of my mind. A few minutes ago I was forced to karaoke or else my mom would take away my GoW2 preorder(not that I REALLY want it, I just want to ask her to switch it for Fable 2, Fallout 3, LBP, Mirror's Edge, Dead Space, Left 4 Dead, and all the other games much better than GoW). Luckily, I only sung 2; Creep by Radiohead(SOOO lucky it was there, I never knew it was), and Bohemian Rhapsody, which was probably...

Alright, time to move on to Tuesday's weekly segment. The high score session. Hell yeah, applause, woo!, and all the other exciting stuff. Welcome back from a long freaking hiatus.Anyway, to buisness itself. I recently downloaded StepMania, and I have been working on my quite rusty DDR skills on the keyboard. I like knowing that I get better and better with less practice. I have been getting more AA's then I thought I would ever get, and these were the same songs I could barely get B's on a few months back.And then, to actual...

Oh, gosh. Here it goes again. I forget to even CHECK the website and now I have to make up for it with 3 posts(including this one) that I REALLY want to post but don't know if I could do. Oh well, let's go!First off, I have been getting into a LOT of fanfiction again, and if you remember a few days ago, I posted a fanfiction from Full Metal Alchemist. Although I haven't been watching much Code Lyoko in a while(I am REALLY BUSY), I have still been trying to work my way through "Code Lyoko, a Retelling".Then, I freaking start...

Popup Video time! Today's theme, Geo Wars!This video was made by Matthew McCarthy about the Xbox Live Arcade game Geometry Wars 2 titled "Geometry Wars Will Be The Death of Me". He sings about everything he hates about Geometry Wars 2, which is pretty much everything. I like this version of the song, but if you click the link, there will be a download for the studio version of the song which, in my opinion, is much better. I could say all the same things about Math class.This is a video of pro Geo Wars player K4rn4ge getting...

A teaser trailer apparently unlocks in BioShock that teases the game's sequel. This trailer is apparently is unlocked by beating the game. Now, probably this was only found out because 2K Marin(the developers or publishers, I forgot) just updated the game to have this. But there hasn't been any news that I heard about an update to the game, because if this is as easy as it sounds and this is how it always has been(just beat the game and look in the BioShock 2 trailer), that is just SOOO STUPID how it just became news recently(check...

SPOILER ALERT: For the people out there watching Full Metal Alchemist or the fanfiction "The Switch Glitch" by Zilo SugarpillI dunno if this might be a new feature or what, I just like adding "1:" to things because I think that I might do them again. Since I really didn't want to do an anime breakout since I would like to have that as a weekly feature(and see if I could keep it that way for a while), I made a new feature. I dunno if I'll...

I do want to post daily, so I have to think of something to rant about right now...lemme think.Oh yeah!Lack of updates on VGNO?I'm not using my computer. I'm temporarily using my mother's laptop so it doesn't have any of the feeds available for me to feed off of(pun intentional).Why are you giving Gloqwi updates including a facelift A FEW DAYS AFTER you said that it was over?Because I felt like making up for some promises(a lot of them)that...

Maybe that was what VGNO was for! I have nothing else to do, and I STILL have not completed my homework, but I REALLY don't feel like doing it(why must there be a SPANISH CLASS!?!??! I want to learn OTHER LANGUAGES DANGIT!!!!). Anyway, I'd just like to say I am bored....currently watching Episode 22 of Code Lyoko, waiting for the whole thing to buffer(well, at least half of it), and if my scanner was plugged in right now, I would upload...

I've gotten through the first 20 episodes of Code Lyoko! Woo!...But between episodes 14&15, I did some skimming through fanfiction.net and there are some things I hope I will never remember, and some things that I'm going to be reading for quite a while!If you want something very(and I mean very) short but pretty funny, read Everybody Loves Odd!If you want to read an interesting love story, read Confused By Love(the link leads to the...

Looks like I can't let go of an old friend, and I don't really feel like writing for VGNO right now. So, I will stop making promises and only start to threaten making promises(because I know I will), right...about....Now.Now let me get on with my buisness. After I'm done, I'm coming with a Anime Breakout 11!Oh, crap, I made another promise. Can you forget about that one?Wait, did I mention the logo? Do you like or wh...

Yea. Code Lyoko is kinda not really an official anime, but it's based off of an anime. Code Lyoko you say? Yes. That show. Okay, I should explain.I watched the first 9 episodes on youtube after I went through my old music and found "Un Monde Sans Danger" & "A World Without Danger", the French and English version of the Code Lyoko theme song. I also was going through thoughts of what I did back in the day(because I count three years...

If you ever meet me in forums, you would know my anger against video games NOT being video games(movies, etc.) and firmly believing that any way that a company releases an original video game brand into another medium just helps the brand grow and not the culture. Now, I'm going to talk about Braid, or rather, tell you something I learned from Braid. Braid was a game I really wanted to get but really couldn't cough up the money to buy it on(saving for bigger games, no offense Jonathan Blow), I only had about $70, and I was only...

First time I ever played and I owned everyone in that game! Kaillif is one of those noobs that just runs away so it wasn't really fair. Thinking about selling R6V2 and getting GoW because my friend(monkie dukie) just brought gears of war over I don't actually have it so tell me what you think on xbl gamertag pdidi...

Although it may be true that they are making a big leap forward for their console, this is how I would have worded it.The Playstation 3 is making a big leap forward....and has caught-up with the 360.To see what I'm talking about, click here. What I'm saying is that this "big leap" they are making with Firmware 2.40 is not a very big leap compared to other consoles. Let's compare the new features to the Xbox 360.Trophies-The Xbox 360 already...

I didn't think very long after the announcement of Rock Band 2 to notice that it might not be the greatest idea. I mean, I'm all up for the cool instruments and being able to import downloaded song to Rock Band 2, but here are the reasons why I feel confused:Another $170 kit? They haven't reported the price, but I'm pretty sure it's going to be a heafty hunk of change, and I am NOT paying for those instruments all over again.They promised...

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...

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...

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 gee...

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...

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 aw...

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!...

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...

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...

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...

Yes I actually got HONOR ROLL! So I told my mom if I got honor roll she would have to let me get GTAIV, so I might get that.

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...

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...

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...

By a very close call, the Xbox 360 one by a very small margin. Here are all the reasons.The PS3.Dualshock 3. (2/5)Metal Gear Solid 4 Beta. (4/5)Warhawk's 2nd Expansion pack. (3/5)No DLC on the Store this week. (-1)Home planned to come out this April. (3/5)Now, Microsoft's side: The Xbox 360.Halo 3 Heroic DLC turns free. (3/5)CoD4 Map pack released. (5/5)Forge filters. (1/5)Lag issues for Xbox Live. (-1)Halo 3 Legendary Map Pack announcement release date revealed. (4/5)PS3:11X360:12Very very close call. Well, that's it for Console...

Hehehe. I was trying to take a peek at the blog and while I looked at the post, I noticed it would let the picture of the Xbox 360 and PS3 picture be shown. There are many sites blocked on this server I suppose, as it also blocks the images of me and Didi's gamertags. Or maybe they don't want any mention of the Xbox 360 anywhere in this store.A few seconds ago, I found this game previewed in the store, called Ridge Racer 7. Sometimes I do great, as more than half of the races I played were ranked 1st place, and sometimes I do...

This will seem worse than you think.First off, Sony's side: The PS3.--Dualshock 3. Contains long awaited rumble but keeps the (sometimes terrible) motion functionality of the Six-Axis controller. Since this feature should have been here LONG ago, this only scores the PS3 a 3/5(minus one for coming soon). (2/5)--Metal Gear Solid 4 Beta. Something that I'm dying to need but only lasting for o so long. Available to download on April 17, this...

Yes. It is true. The map pack was delayed until April 10th, BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUT, Infinity Ward and Microsoft managed to find some to get the certification done early and, well, here they are! That is my understanding of what happened, not sure if that is what happened, but that is what I understand.I did though, hear about it releasing early this morning last night on X-Play! I was just to lazy to make a post about it. GJ Didi. I'm...

Kaillif lied once again. The Variety Map-Pack for Call of Duty 4 was released today for both the Xbox 360 and PS3 for 800 microsoft pionts or $10. Now I can't say I got it the first day, but there still is halo...

PS3 sucks! Xbox 360 has wayyyyy better DLC than PS3. If you haven't seen the new Legendary Map-Pack trailer for Halo 3 than get off this earth. Oh and Kaillif please tell me how to add video to a post and make sure you get rid of that dumb April Fools Stuff ...

Kaillif I hate You much alot for editing My SONG!In other news, Playstation HOME is planned to be launched this April. Initially it is totally free (unlike the XBOX 360 online) and you only need to download it (500 MB) You can customize your avatar, and you start out with a small "apartment". You can play arcade games, go bowling, or play pool with your friends, which methinks is free. For real money, however, you can purchase decorations for your house, clothes, and a larger house (although some clothes and decorations are...

Yep. That's right. Gears of War has finally connected with a director and a script. I just really hope it's not a Far Cry.In other news, let's review the best freaking video game April Fool's Joke...but first, I'd just like to say, whoever said there was going to be DLC for SSBB and ended up being an April Fool's Joke, I hate you with a passion.Now, for the awesomeness...PRESENTED IN HDEH!......actually, sorry guys.

You want to put your face on your character, well you can.3. The new terrorist mode lets you play with 4 friends,or random people, and take...

Well, I went back to Best Buy and played Super Smash Bros. Brawl for another while. This time I played as Pit and Meta-Knight, and I supposedly was the first one to beat Classic mode on Hard as I unlocked something that seems to be the SSBB version of an achievement saying that I did. They controlled very well, but I just have to get used to using Pit's jump like Ness' because you have to hold the jump button down to get to the highest...

Well, I decided to do some serious anime watching by doing it the old fashioned way.Watching it on TV.First up was Digimon which I always keep on misspelling whenever I try to spell it(Dijimon).Umm, it's either I haven't been watching long enough to actually be interested in the storyline, or all of your childhood's sucked.I also watched half and episode of Death Note and a full episode of Bleach. First off, Death Note scares me, I don't...

Yes it is confirmed. This weekend instead of getting Halo 3 I will get Rainbow Six: Vegas 2. It looks awesome and my friends told me to get so what da heck, only problem...

Here's my first impressions look on SSBB.First, I have to say, I might have been expecting a little too much from the graphics of this game, or it maybe because it wasn't presented on my TV, that I was expecting a little more because of all the screen shots I have seen. I can say that the graphics...

Sonic Unleashed sounds like the one to revive them all. Google it, and see what the awesomeness that could be! It might be all that I dream! Or better yet, Youtube it. There is a gameplay video that proves even more that it could fulfill my dreams......Oh, by the way, this one link, made me go crazy. Both the Gamespot score and the review, not saying that I disagree with the score.BUT THIS PISSED ME OFF MORE THAN YOULL EVER KNOW!!!!!!MORE...
