Mimic's Weekly Gaming Splotch

Posted by mimic12455 - January 16th, 2008


I thought about it for a while and I feel as though I should post Video Game information journals. I know you probably can get them at your local Game site. What I have planned is that I'll post either a fact, review, preview, rumor, or even a comment on the section in question. You may get to see something you haven't heard about yet.

If you want more information on a certain subject, I'll see what I can dig up and post it here. For now, I'll just post what I feel like. If you don't like my opinions, don't read it.

++Nintendo News++

[General]

From my experience with Nintendo and their products, I say they are headin in the right direction with it's interactive gameplay. Who knows? They might be the first to make a system where you can actually step into the game.

[Wii]

As you heard, Super Smash Brothers Brawl has been delayed till march 7. So you're not going to get it for another month. The good news is that you get to see more information on the main website and look forward to it's innevitable awesomeness.

[DS]

This is probably old news, but a Sonic RPG known as "Sonic Chronicles: The Dark Brotherhood" should be coming out some time this year. I haven't heard any new info other then what was on this site: http://www.bioware.com/bioware_info/pr ess_releases/2007_06_21_Sonic_DS/
I'm still looking into it, so I'll tell you what I find.

++Sony++

[General]

You probably heard it all: the prices, the PS3, the jokes. They are still coming along slowly in the console war, but it's going in a forward direction.

[PS3]

After getting the PS3, I manage to get as much information out of it as possible. I manage to find something that I somehow over looked. While it does have limited to no backwards capatibility for PS2 games, I did find out that it can play any PS1 games with few problems. So that's a bit of good news for me since I do own some PS games. Plus it also contains a folder to hold PSP and PS1 games, another good thing since i lost all my memory cards for PS1.

I'll more information when I explore my PS3 more and install the wallpaper from newgrounds.

[PSP]

Looking around a bit, I came across a game coming out later in a few months called Patapon. It's a game where you control a tribe of small black eyeballs using the beat of the drums. While it may sound like a kids game, these little guys are anything, but kids. They have spears, axes, and arrows, going around killing anything in their way. Hell, Some of the bosses are three to five times their size. If I had a PSP, I'd get that game as soon as it comes out.

++Microsoft++

[general]

You probably seen it in some way or another. You were even forced to use it when you bought your computer last month. I'm talking about the Windows Vista. There have been many complains about it. While I have yet to use it, I can still help with advice.

If you recently got a Vista OS, then you will notice the slowness it gives you. I highly recommend you get help from the Geek Squad. You heard about them from many stores and sites. Sometimes you can have them check it free with ever computer perchuse. These guys definitly know what they are doing. They can have your computer up to speed and totally optimized for your conveniance. I highly suggest that if you haven't already, go to the Geek Squad website (geeksquad.com) and get that thing fixed.

[X-box and 360]

You probably heard about the Orange Box(Also for PS3). If you haven't, then you've got a lot of catching up to do. It has Half-life 2 and the much talked about (and parodied) Portal.

While there has been a lot of talk about it, but what caught my interest for it is the multiplayer game it comes with called "Team Fortress 2". I never got into the idea for the game until recently when I saw this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mY5qJHZ Cz2I

I don't know about you, but after seeing that and the rest of the "Meet the...." videos I suddenly found myself wanting to play it. I'll have more information when I get the game.

[PC]

THIS. IS. DATA!

+misc+

Another thing to add on things to know is that Darth Vader and Yoda will be appearing in Soul Calibur 4. No, this isn't a joke. As strange as it sounds, the force has been added to the game. Only bad thing is that Vader is for the PS3 and Yoda is for the X-box 360.

Got any questions or suggestions to improve this? PM or Email me and I'll read them.


Comments

I like your latest submission, "Poke the prinny". It was funny especially when the thing sang. And it was funny when it said 'dude' all the time.

Thanks, expect to see him in the future. :)
