School is over!!! (Apart from one thing)

Well today is the day which school was supposed to be out of my life, I would never have to go there ever again for the rest of my life, all I had to do today was get some forms signed off and I could go. So I went in did my last exam, it was History and quite hard :P but then came the big anger moement. The person who had to sign my forms didn't show up for school today, so now I have to go back to school tommrow, and thats the day MGS4 supposed to arrive!!! I am really angery because It only takes 3 seconds to sign so I have to wake up early, get dressed, walk all the way to school get it signed then walk all the way back, its ludicroius!!! Anyway apart from that its done, now all I am doing is gonna wait for MGS4, seya!

My N64 Mission is up and running again

If you've been a freind of mine for at least a couple of months you'll know that I started a mission, I was to collect every single N64 game, quite a challenge but it seemed easy enough compared to collecting every DS game which would be impossile since its the current gen console so there at top price and there still making more. As an extra bonus I have always loved the N64, it is my favorite console since it holds the most memories and mostly all of the games I own are top notch, I loved the fact that there cartridges too, because I'm always getting CD's scratched up :P, anyway where was I. Well MGS4 will soon be apon me, MGS4 has been a game I have been waiting for for years and years, it was the sole reason I got a PS3, (That and Ratchet and Clank: Tools of Destruction) but I've only just relised that apart from MGs4 I haven't really been looking forward to any games, theres no games that I really was looking forward to coming out. Sure theres the odd small one like Secret Agent Clank and HOME but there not big ones. So I just thought it's time I start up my N64 mission again, somthing to keep me intrested in the gaming world. I think I've just at this moement compiling a checklist of every N64 game, (That was sold in Europe) I will not be purchusing any games that wern'y sold in Europe such as hey You Pickacu and Dr Mario 64, if I come across a N64 Passport I'll think about it. Well to start off my collection I think I may need to atleast play some of my oldones, infact one of them I haven't even played yet, It's Donkey Kong 64, I'd really like to but no N64 Expansion pack "Shakes Fist at Amazon for not making it come with the game I got" So that'll be the first thing I get. Then I am gonna go get myself some cheap N64 games to start off with, and my first buy will be Yoshi's Story. Yoshi's Story is one of the games I wanted to get while the N64 was still current Gen, but I never really got round to it. And by the time I was about to buy it my dad comes home with a PS2, so I completely got rid of those Yoshi styled thoughts and spent money on PS2 games. But now I can finnaly get the game I've always wanted, anyway I was on You Tube looking for good reviews of it and I came across what has to be the best review EVER! You have to agree with me, the link is at the bottom of the page, trust me once you watch it you'll be in stitches, I'd pay for that guy to do more reviews, I would! Anyway thats how far I've got so far, my next blog will be non N64 related as it will be on Wednesday and it's topic will be about my last exam and no more school, then when MGS4 comes that will be my next one. Anyway please watch the You Tube video, I'll see you soon!

Webcam Manteince Needed

Well my webcam needs to be fixed because its not working 100%, well it's Tesco Value so what do you expect, so sadly there'll be no FGVB this weeks, nothing really happend. The DVD was good and the card is good, I reccently completed Mario Kart Wii and Oblivion Fighters Guild AND MGS2 and I'm fully prepared for MGS4 now, all I must do is wait. Seya!

PS: Please go back and watch my Ocelot video, I really want more views, ty!

My last MGS Video before the series end's

The Metal Gear Solid Series is the best series in my view to make videos about since there is just so much footage everywhere, but for my first one I made a bad choice by making a video that was about a character called Johnny who didn't have much footage anywhere on and off the game. So I've come alongway but over the years my videos are getting better, and now I present to you The Lone Ocelot, it is my second tribute to Ocelot, my last tribute i did to him was ages ago and this is much better. Is it my best MGS video, well prehaps so, anyway please post comments and enjoy!

Thinking of changing my name

For those of you who do not know my full name is William Joshua Wallis Stubbs, I get called Billy for short. It may have not occured to you but I do not really like the name Billy, or William for that matter, Billy sounds like a kids name and William sounds far to snobby for my likeing, so I'm thinking of changing my name. Yes I have given it lots of thought and it won't be anytime soon either, my parents do not agree so i have to wait till I'm 18 "Shakes Fist at law" So what will my new name be you ask, well I've looked all over this website that has hundreds and hundreds of names and out of all those I found one which I love to say, sounds great and is just a Qwarktastic name. The name I really want to be my name is Doyle, Doyle is of the Irish and Gaelic orgin and means "Dark Stranger" It is a popular males surname but not alot of people chose to have it as there first name, but I'm about to change that. When I'm 18 I'm going straight down to London to offically change my name to Doyle, i don't know about my surname, I may just stick with stubbs but I may also come up with a better name. Doyle Qwark! (Lol Joking) But defantly Doyle, so tell me what you think about the name Doyle.

School Tribute

Well my school tribute video is up, just not here. I've uploaded it up onto You Tube because it isn't much to do with games, plus then people from my school can see it too, well anyway please tell me what you think and enjoy!

In just under 2 weeks, I'll be holding it

In 12 days MGS4 will be released worldwide, it has taken an incredably long time to produce and has been delayed many many many times. (The game was actully supposed to come out as a PS3 launch!) The game is pre-ordered and now all I must do is wait, to prepare myself for MGS4 I will do alot of things, firstly I have started to play the games again, I am halfway through Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes, I have been practacing my online skills in Metal Gear Solid: Portable Ops Plus and I am just about to start Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops again, but it is not enough. To get myself really ready I must play MGS2 and MGS3 and MGS1 again, but I do not own a PS2 any longer so if I did play it on my PS3 I would have to start again. If I started again i fear I would not get it finished in time for MGS4's release. I have today, Saterday, Sunday, then next saterday and then Sunday and then Wednesday evening, and the next day MGS4 is released, so i do not have many gameing days left. If I were to start again i wouldn't beable to complete both of them since MGS2 would take me about 2-3 days and MGS3 would take me about 2-4 days. It wouldn't useally take me that long even if I did start again, but exams "Sighs" Why on earth do Exams have to be around this time of the year, I will have to do plenty revision so won't have much time to play games anyway, so I decided to break open my money box and buy a PS2 to PS3 Memory card Covetor. What it is is a device which allows me to transfer all my PS2 data to the PS3's internal Memory Cards, I think the PS3 can hold like 300+ Internal PS2 and PS1 Memory Cards, so not only will it allow me to get through MGS2 and MGS3 easier and quicker it will also allow me to get all my other data back onto the PS3 without having to start again. Then I will beable to revist old favorites like Resident Evil 4, all my Rathet and Clank games, GTA San Andreas and GTA Vice City and all my others. it will truely be arelif. It is a shame that it cost me £8.00 and it's a thing I am never going to use again once I've got it, but hey I care that much about MGS4. There is also another device I really want, it is somthing that is exlusive to the European Version of MGS4. Amercia gets The Limited Edition copy of MGS4, Japan gets the Premuim MGS4 Game and not only does Europe get the PS3 MGS4 bundle but it also gets this.

Metal Gear Solid 4 Limited Edition PS3 Bluetooth Headset - GAME Exclusive! (PlayStation 3) - Product Image

Straight from Snake's item inventory to your living room - arm yourself with the latest in tactical espionage action technology with this Metal Gear Solid 4 licensed Bluetooth 2.0 headset from PDP.

Built in rechargeable battery gives 8 hours talk time & 160 hours standby with 30 feet operation range. Auto power off and auto connect to last paired device. Comes with protective carrying case. That description makes me wanna get it even more, yes it is said to be Exlsuive to Europe but they say that eventully Amercians and Japnsese will get theres to, it may be £39.99 but I think it is a well worth piece of MGS merchandise, I will defantly be getting it. But I will have to hurry since it is limited stock, thats right its' not going to be in the shop for more than 2-4 months, after that it becomes "Rare" and Ebay will be plenty full of them. Also AFTER I have completed MGS4 i will be purchasing this

Metal Gear Solid 4 Strategy Guide (Cool Stuff) - Product Image

It is the MGS$ Offical stratagy guide, now remeber I said AFTER I complete the game, I am not the type to use guides on a game the 1st time round (Except with The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion and The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time) Once I complete it about 1-3 times I will purchuse this to help me get any extra things I missed, so if anybody thinks I'll be cheating technically I won't since I've finished it. Even if I collect everything by the 3rd time and theres nothing left i will still get it, for collection purposes only.

Well this has been a long old blog, well I hope you enjoyed it and I'll be seeing you Sunday for FGVB - Episode 6, seya!
