I watched all 3 on G4TV.....And i gotta say, There was some pretty cool stuff....In my opinion this is how well they did
1.Microsoft
2.Sony
3.Nintendo
No im not saying this because i love the 360, its a fact. Microsoft equally showed a good amount of stuff, games,media and such. The new upgrade on Xbox Live looks awesome, but the avatars look very...kiddy.They seriously look like cheap knockoffs of Wii Miis, just taller. They made a partnership with netflix, which is cool, AND they showed some awesome footage on Fallout 3, Gears of War 2, and Resident Evil 5. I definetely have my eyes on those games. If i get the money that is. What i didnt like about Microsoft's press is that.....Come now....All these community games.....Leave all that community stuff to the Wii, i know they're trying to get more families to get into the 360 but i think they're trying too hard. As for nintendo. They did...TERRIBLE. Well not TERRIBLE, but jesus..MEDIA....MEDIA...and MORE MEDIA, I MEAN WTF?!? WHERE ARE THE GAMES?! I dont count WiiFit and such as "Games" because games such as WiiSports came with the console, and is like a demo to what the remote can do. They did this last year, and i dont like it. They did NOT show any REAL gameplay footage of their top promised games, so that was a little disappointing.
Now sony. Did much better than Nintendo, but didnt do as good as Microsoft. What im really surprised at, is that Sony......in a way...i think their killer app was Killzone 2, Yet they didnt show ANY gameplay footage or ANYTHING. They just mentioned it in their list, but thats it. Also.....Sony in my opinion has no chance. So many games that were so called "PS3 Exclusive" have moved onto the 360. My friend were discussing about what system was doing better and such, and i talked about RPGs growing on the 360, and Final Fantasy games may also too...I think there was one final fantasy game, but i heard it had problems. He was like, Well...Final Fantasy 13 would NEVER go on the 360....Final Fantasy has always called Sony their home. Guess what. Final Fantasy 13 is on the 360, SO HAH! Same with Resident Evil 5. Same with Devil May Cry 4 awhile back, and guess what?! IT SOLD MORE AND PLAYED SO MUCH BETTER ( i heard the PS3 version freezes a lot, i witnessed it myself). Microsoft just had an awesome press conference, and i think Sony did much better last year. Nintendo sucked this year and last year...Wii zapper...Epic Phail..... God Of War 3 appealed to me so thats gonna own.
My friend says Resistance 2 will beat Gears of War 2, but Gears of War 2 has so many more gameplay possibilties, its not even funny...Freaking meat shields....And RIDING A BRUMAK.....DAMN MAN. Though the leviathan surprised me at first, All he basically did was shoot rockets at its mouth if he was grabbed, so thats nothing special. Since Nathan Hale is a chimera, im not surprised that he survived all those throws lol. Well thats all for me now. Cya later. PS: I dont own a PSP, but ive borrowed one for awhile....resistance on the PSP looks awesome...Microsoft basically dominated this time around, with a good mixture of media and games...Sony did about the same, just not as good and not showing anything Killzone 2ish...Nintendo. You fail. You fail miserably, and still sell the friggin Wii like hotcakes. Damn you......>.>
Im typing this and there is like one minute before midnight over in the west coast of the U.S lol. Well....Hows everyone doing? I havent done a blog in awhile because nothing seems to occur to me to type one up, but i guess i have time now. As for my life, A boring summer. Most of my friends are on trips and such so i cant hang with them, and they wont be back till like a month. Im supposed to be on leave for Philadelphia on sunday to visit my relatives for a month, but its been postponed...I did much better freshman year in high school than i did in senior year middle school(8th grade) so i dont really have summer school....Thats a first in awhile...Sooo yeah. As for gaming, as you can see i got Ninja Gaiden 2 (my first game in a long time) And i gotta say its awesome. Im currently yelling and cursing at the game on Mentor...2nd chapter mid battle boss...This game is hard. No really...its the hardest game i have ever played in my gaming life, so for now im just getting weapon achievements(You complete the game using only that one weapon besides spells and projectiles). As for other games, im mostly playing Call of Duty 4. I have not played that for awhile either, But im more active now...im only level 2 prestiege ranked 43, but trust me if i was playing this whole time i would have made Gold cross 55 or one prestiege lower by now, But il get there eventually. I dont play Halo 3 as much anymore, due to my friends not playing it as much, and im frusturated at how my skill keeps dropping so il put Halo on hold for now. Handheld, i play with my DS. Im currently playing my Advance Wars: Dual Strike, and my Pokemon Pearl. For Dual Strike im just getting medals and such, completing campaign another time...Pokemon Pearl, im just filling my already filled up boxes of pokemon by catching and evolving. I have like around 330+ on the pokedex and ive played 120+ Hours. No i do not play this game straight, over the school year i play on bus rides to school, bus rides back home, On the go with my friends and such...So it just racked up lol. GBA wise, im playing Advance Wars 2,and Castlevania:Circle of the Moon. If i had enough cash, i'd buy cheap good 360 games such as Assassin's Creed,or Timeshift. Yeah i know, timeshift aint the best, but i hear i played the demo...I also hear that the game is just pretty average, and has its moments so il try it out, and im pretty sure its cheap.
Anime...im watching the usual. Downloading Bleach and Naruto episodes, while watching Inuyasha on comcast on demand. Ive been reading manga on a site my friend recommended to me as well. I finished Rurouni Kenshin...one of my most favorite Anime/Manga...this is my second time finishing the series, so im satisfied. I was ALSO VERY BORED.....one time...and a bit high at the moment from drinking monster, So i read...a random manga i found,but heard of. Im not a perv or anything, but it was just out of curiousity....And i think my friend read it before...its a manga called Absolute Boyfriend. Ive been told this manga has been preferred and recommended ONLY to mostly females(due to "Hot" anime guys), but it has a good story....and it does. I finished it a few days ago, and its pretty good. Plot is pretty nice...and once again dont get the wrong idea. I was a bit hyper, and was really bored...So yeah. I'd recommend it though....But seriously, I'l read any manga if its recommended and good. If it has like...Explicit things in it such as lifted skirts and such, il read it if the story,plot, and characters are to my liking. Well i have nothing more to say. Its 12:16 and im just typing this for randomness....and i had the time so....Cya later. ShootToKiII out.
Self explainatory title. DO YOU KNOW HOW HOT IT IS RIGHT NOW? A HEAT WAVE ENTERED SAN FRANCISCO TODAY....and THE HEAT IS UNBEARABLE!! ITS AS HOT AS IN CHINA!!! And for those of you who been to china before,must have felt the heat,EVEN IF IT RAINS! The rain is even warm. Seriously. It is really hot here,and these levels can be life threatening to children and like elderly people. I cant find my shorts!
Also,im level 29!! Radiant Silvergun. I always liked the name of this rank
. Also,Games to look at. Today is May 14th,and as i type this the time is en route to 1:40 PM(i get off early on Wednesdays...12:40). Since today is may 14th,i am going to get Assault Heroes 2 off Xbox Live marketplace. Though the original Assault Heroes was brief,it was an enjoyable experience and a worthy arcade game,only 5 bucks right now! the sequel is 10 bucks,but hey its a new game. It SHOULD be worth the 10 bucks. I read all about the new stuff,the better graphics,and others....Hopefully this all turns out great. Also games im looking forward to this year:
Gears of War 2:November 2008
Dragonball Z:Burst Limit:June 10 2008
AND THE GAME I AM TOTALLY SERIOUSLY GOING TO GET: Tales of Vesperia August 19 2008...And the thing is...ITS AN XBOX 360 EXCLUSIVE! xD. I thought it was gonna be a PS3 exclusive considering the last few tales games were on Sony's old console,the PS2 and the PSP. But i was surprised when they said its only making a debut on the 360! I am seriously going to get this game! Hopefully none of these games get delayed,i have a small feeling Gears of war 2 might be delayed,and DBZ games always come out planned. Same with Tales games. I will most likely obtain 2/3 of the games...Depending on reviews,and possible copies. And my mom,i can prolly get 2 of the 3 games i want. Burst Limit sounds a bit of a letdown to me due to lack of characters that Budokai 3 had,so i might not get that. Gears of war and Tales of Vesperia have my attention right now. Finally...a Tales game with good graphics...
.
Also,Anime i am currently watching:
Bleach:Ep 169(New one comes out today)
Naruto Shippuuden:Ep 57-58
Mobile Suit Gundam Seed Destiny:Finished
Samurai Champloo:Finished(Again)
Inuyasha:Ep 88
Watched the new Naruto Shippuuden Movie also. a bit short.
and i think thats it. Theres more that i might be forgetting about.
Well thats it for me today. I will talk to all of you later. Peace. PS:Unfortunately,Tales of Vesperia and Gears of War 2 will be out the time im in school again..except il be a sophmore...Damn. Burst limit will be out on like..when school ends...i will read the review for it first. Also a question: Do any of you know of ANY game thats release date was PUSHED DOWN? Instead of pushed up(delayed). Because i would love for that to happen.
PS:Im a level 28 Bionic Commando My Recent Reviews

I had a pretty average time playing Gears of War. Very good nonetheless,and i am looking forward to Gears of War 2. Continue »
"Underappreciated"
I dont get it. This is quite a solid game,of course not without a few flaws...It deserves much higher than a 6.5. Continue »
"Mixed reactions"
Great game that is dragged down by punishing difficulty,and several gameplay problems. Continue »
