Obtaining all 490 in your Pokedex. Not an easy task!

I know this is an unusual thing to blog about, but I feel it was a large achievement.

As of about 3pm GMT, I have obtained all 490 legitimate Pokemon in Diamond/Pearl. It was a long and hard quest, and there were many things that helped me along the way. My journey started way back in May, obtaining Piplup, then the other two starters, I headed across the Sinnoh region, catching as many as I could. This however was a task that I couldn't possibly do alone.

I noticed that the GPS was a little unreliable. Its hard to find decent trades. So I resorted to using a website to find them all. In order to really complete the game fully, you need to make friends, especially those with Diamond/Pearl, but also older versions help too. The Wi-Fi chat on Serebii.net was especially useful because quite simply, although there are loads looking for "shinys" or "EV trained" creatures, you'll find the odd trade thats reasonable. The other advantage is if the trade isn't for what you can give, you can always negociate.

Some people will however not give things up unless for Shiny creatures. If you have them, great. If not, you might find it hard to obtain Lugia or Ho-oh, or similar creatures. The forum does have its share of young kids who insist you're either a n00b or a scammer. This was apparent when I decided obtaining all 490 was impossible, but the dex entries wasn't. I asked for the Dex entry to Raikou, the last legendary I needed. I had imported a Master Ball over to sweeten the deal. "Give me the Raikou for the Dex entry and you'll get a master ball for free." I thought it'd attract people to do the trade. Instead I got abuse, even some punk who falsely accused me of scamming him out of a starter Pokemon. So much distrust on the internet. Besides, why would I even say "I'll give you a Master Ball for doing it" with the intent on scamming? Well, it turns out the punk couldn't produce enough evidence to suggest I did do it, heck, he gave the wrong Pal Code! Honestly!

There are a bunch you need to evolve, and you really do need to establish a contact. If you trade someone a Pokemon early on, If you want the trade evolutions, get their details. If you establish trust, then theres no problem with it at all. Some may see it as grooming if it goes out of hand, but always ensure you're nowhere near whoever you're trading with. Failing that, you could always use the GPS trick, which I will not state on here for risks of informing glitches.

There are some you just need to plain evolve, and it takes time. There are also some you can't get via normal means, so scout around for those who will trade for them. They're around, somewhere! It took me about 3 months to do it, and I didn't play for two weeks at one time, so with perseverance, it shouldn't be hard.

What am I doing now? Complelling a Lv100 team to take on the internet. After that, I'd probably sit around, waiting for the events to come out. It'll take time, but it should be around sooner, rather than later! We hope!

Super Smash Bros Brawl: New and Veteran Character thoughts

So the sequel to the ever popular Super Smash Bros Melee is fast approaching, and some more characters have been revealed on the official site. So I feel its time for a preview of whats in store.

Firstly, the game will feature four styles of play. Wii remote, Wii remote+Nunchuck, Classic Pad and Gamecube pad. All ideas seem fine, though I expect veterans will play with their Gamecube pad.

The stages have some novel ideas, for example, remember the Ice Climber stage where you go up and down? Well thats gone in place of a DK stage that just goes up. Also new are multiple tiers where one minute your on a roof, next you're in a castle, then underground. I wouldn't be surprised if its a dungeon! Also they're using the Wiis internal clock and date system to power whether or not you're fighting in day or night, spring, summer, autumn or winter. Its brilliant thinking!

There are a bunch of new items, but most interesting are Assist Trophies. These act pretty much like the Pokéballs from before, only have characters from other games in them! Confirmed ones are Samurai Gohoh (F-Zero), Dr Wright (SimCity SNES), Knuckle Joe (Kirby) and Hammer Bros (Super Mario Bros). Pokéballs are still around, with Chikorita, Goldeen, Deoxys and Groudon confirmed. (Chikorita and Goldeen do what they've always done. I always thought Magikarp would've been better for Goldeen!)

The new and old characters look superb. Fox, Link and Zelda look brilliant in their new costumes (and thankfully Zelda is no longer blonde!) New characters include Pit, Zero Suit Samus, Wario (in WW suit) and Ike from the Cube Fire Emblem. Metaknight and Solid Snake haven't been posted yet, but one would assume they will soon

The Console Wars - ACT X

So, once again its that time when people come together to argue about which consoles and handhelds are better. But most haven't even had the oppourtunity to test all of them, and some even base their opinions based on preconceptions of the previous console's main players in the market. I in the past have certainly been guilty of this, especially with the Mega Drive (Genesis)/Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES) competition. So this time round, I have tested all the consoles before making a desision.

I'm going to list them in the order they were released. This way we know for certain what does what, how well they do it, and how long we expect that console to last. Lets get started shall we?

CONSOLES

XBOX 360

This console is the first one to have been released of the next generation. It boasted many things. Firstly, it promised to give the taste of the future of video games, and with High Definition around the corner, games would soon have more detail than ever before. It also promised a sleak new look, ergonomic game pad, and a host of other things. So now the other two consoles are released, how does it fair?

Single Platform Game Graphics: The 360 shows that games developed for that console really show off the hardware. The best example of just how good the 360 is, is Gears of War. The level of detail is insane, and the game really redefines the genre, and it couldn't have done it without the features developed with the 360s Dual Core processor.

Multiplatform Game Graphics: In the beginning, when they were developed for old and new consoles, the 360's games weren't too impressive, but with the advent of the PS3, the games have really begun to shine. The Darkness looks set to amaze, and pretty soon things will become more and more advanced in this field.

Game Library: Understandably, since this console has been out for well over a year, it has the largest. But some genres are more neglected than others, such as RPGs. However, with Blue Dragon set to appear later this month in some places, that could all change sooner than you think!

Pad & Hardware: Firstly, lets talk game pads. The 360 has wireless and wired pads. Using the "ring of power", users can push the button and assign their pad to one of four slots. With the peripherals such as the Guitar Hero 2 guitar (wired for now), and Xbox 360 headset which plugs into the pad, this is one of the more sophisticated game pads around. Other hardware includes the hard drives which total up to 70gb in some cases, which is huge. Face panels that are customisable are a nice touch. It can also play DVDs and HD-DVDs, which is a nice feature too with the advent of High Definition.

Backwards Compatabilty: This is an area I haven't touched on much, but it seemed like Microsoft had problems with some games at first. Hopefully this is all fixed now, but it may still be early days.

Online and Others: Game go online in most cases now, and updates are avaliable for most games, making it one of the more in depth consoles. It also uses a LIVE function which has the free SILVER membership and pay monthly GOLD membership. You can also use money to buy downloadable content, such as Theme Packs. You can also take full advantage of the Xbox Live Arcade facility, which has loads of games to download. You can even download trial versions before you buy, which is nice. Another nice feature is Achievements, avaliable for all games, including Live Arcade ones, which somehow give some games more insentive to play. Finally, the price tag. There are more expensive versions, but there are also cheaper versions, which are important to consumers. But is it better value? Better than PS3, maybe not in the case of the Wii.

WII

The Wii was a surprise to many when it was first announced. Codenamed "Revolution", it said it would change gaming forever, and it wasn't wrong in any way. Much like the DS before it redefining handheld gaming, the Wii uses a TV remote **** thing to control games, complete with attachments for it, such as the ****c Pad, and Nunchuck. Another thing it boasted was backwards compatability with the Gamecube, but also NES, SNES, N64, Mega Drive and TurboGraphix 16 games to download to hard drive. It also has a Channel interfact, which allows users to select what they want to do via clicking on the screen. Since the console is so different, the graphics will be listed as Single Party and Third Party instead.

Single Party Graphics: The visual ****suits the bizarreness of the system itself, with games that vary so much, such as WarioWare Smooth Moves and Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess being so different from each other. Having said that, Twilight Princess almost competes with the better 360 games. Problem is, its not yet HD compatible, but there will be an HD ready Wii at some point.

Third Party Graphics: About on par with the rest of the Wii. Due to the fact its reportedly easy to develop for, third party developers have had more time to think about what to do with the system to really show it off, therefore the initial library is more than impressive in terms of graphics. Ubisoft in particular had a ball with the console even on its release, with two games making the initial release schedule.

Game Library: While not as much as the 360, its more inventive, therefore more people have had an oppourunity to examine just how different the console is. With the sales proving it to be a great console for consumers, be sure to expect more for the system in the near future at least.

Pad and Hardware: So with a new direction in gaming, the design for the "pad" has to be very important. It really does act like a TV remote, but a more sophisticated and complex one. The remote has a trigger, D-pad and two buttons, which are set out like a NES pad was in the old days. Using a receptor placed on top of your TV, you can use it in a variety of different ways. Combine that with the Nunchuck for moving and most games are able to be played. Some require more traditional uses, so functionality for Gamecube and ****c Pads are also available. In terms of Hardware, it seems the Wii has the least space for internal hard drives, but hopefully bigger hard drives would be avaliable soon. One thing that should be of note is that the Wii isn't only wireless, but also is compatible with the DS, so some games in the future might take advantage of this.

Backwards Compatabilty: The Cube part of this is perfect. Stick in a Cube game and you won't need to do anything else. The downloadable games are being released over time, and theres now well over 100 games to download, all the way up to N64. It's no surprise that they'll add more and more to the system.

Online and Others: This is where the Wii gets even more interesting. You can check out the news, weather for your area, and other things using your Wii's specific channels. You also have an Opera based web browser, which is good and functions really well on the Wii. The final thing thats interesting is the Mii concept. Like a more sophisticated Gamer Profile (Xbox360), you create a Mii version of yourself, who acts like an Avatar, and even features in games such as Wii Play or Wii Sports. Who knows, there may be patches to make more sophisticated Miis in the future! Out of all the consoles, its the most affordable too, which is great for all those who want it.

Playstation 3 (PS3)

The Playstation 3 is by far the most advanced of the bunch, but is also the one that experienced the most problems prior and during release. Firstly, they had problems with backwards compatabilty. Then problems with Blu-Ray, and during release, the hefty price tag put off many consumers all together. But the system does have things going for it. One is the far superior Blu-Ray, which holds a lot more than HD disks do. It acts like a DVD/Blu-Ray Disc player too, which is a bonus.

Single Platform Game Graphics: One game springs to mind: Resistance - Fall of Man. I was dubious when I first saw it, thinking it doesn't change things much at all compared to the last generation, but using an HD TV and a huge widescreen TV, it really does the game justice. Already the console has established a level of detail which is incredible. One thing I noticed which amazed the capabilities of the system was the fact that you shoot/break a window or shoot lots of bullets in a pattern, go away and continue for a bit, turn round and come back and they'll still be there when you come back. This is due to the systems four Processors, which each have their own functions. One for graphics, one for sound, one for events and one for the pads. Incredible stuff.

Multplatform Game Graphics: Oh dear. This is a mix and a half. Those designed for the system look very good, while those developed originally for the 360 look blurred somehow. The exception is of course The Eldar Scrolls IV: Oblivion, which looks even more stunning, but thats probably because they had time to tweak it for the PS3. Still, things can only get better for it I suppose.

Game Library: Its just come out, so its not too great. Resistance - Fall of Man is superb, and Motorstorm is incredibly sophisticated for a driving game. But with Metal Gear Solid 4 and Resident Evil 5 round the corner, things are looking up for the PS3.

Pad and Hardware: I will say this now. I don't like the Sixalus (I think thats its name). Its not weighted, which means that trying to turn a car using the movement instead of sticks on Motorstorm was a nightmare. You can tell they directly ripped the idea from Nintendo as it isn't as well thought out. The good news is that the rest of the pad is okay, and the L & R triggers work well, if a little stiff. It even comes with a Home button, much like the 360's Button of Power. The best thing is however that the PS3 can support 8 pads at one time. which is incredible, but probable considering the single processor for the pads. The variety of Hard Drives is huge, so saves are not a problem. The console is also mostly region unlocked, which makes things easier to import if it doesn't come out wherever you are. There are things that could be done with it to interact with the PSP a little more, and I assume they will in the future. The Memory Stick Duo is also to be used with the PS3, so if you run out of space, use one of those!

Backwards Compatabilty: Good news and Bad news. Good news is now most PS2 and PS1 games are supported, but not all of them for technical reasons. Bad news is that you won't be able to transfer your saves, meaning if you sold your PS2, you've lucked out. The reason for this is because saves are now done via hard-drive, and it creates special internal memory cards for your games. Works in logic, but the inabilty to transfer will more than likely frustrate many people.

Online and Others: The PS3 is what I would like to refer as what a Xbox 360's online functions did if it met the Wii's online functions and did unspeakable things. It uses the PSP's user interface, but it acts like a 360s online and also has the Wii's downloadable back catalogue for some games. Good or bad, who knows? Whether the PS1 downloadable games would be PSP compatable? Whatever the answers, you can tell they closely followed their competitors desisions to aid with their own. Oh, bad news, its the most expensive console out there, and its like half a grand!

Conclusion

The Wii is on top at the moment with its unusual marketing strategy, and indeed unusual **** I personally love the Wii, but can't justifyably say that its better than the 360 and PS3 because of the fact its a totally different beast. Out of the other two, the 360 is slightly better, mainly because of the less gimmicky nature and the fact it isn't as expensive. I reckon the Wii will come out on top, but out of the two hardcore systems, the 360 is prefered, though the PS3 might stage a sprint later on. Who knows?!

HANDHELDS

DS

The Nintendo DS is the fastest selling product in the gaming industry. It shows that the Gameboy, Gameboy Color and Gameboy Advance were all leading up to something by the time some competition came out. Since its release, it has sold more units than any other computerised product. Many have taken to its games, it has created or revived some genres. Games that were unthinkable have now surfaced onto this format. It shows no signs of slowing down either and thanks to the marketing campaigns that still are going on, with in the UK, a deal with Channel 4 to show adverts and sponsor the big shows, long live the DS!

First Party Game Graphics: There are a lot of them, and all are quality titles. Those that are first party franchises developed by third party ones don't tend to stand out as much, but even with its rather gimmicky start, it has now picked up pace, and with Pokémon Diamond/Pearl now surfaced, things are looking up for Nintendo.

Third Party Game Graphics: The games here are sometimes better than the in-house ones, and some just use the DS so well. The best uses of the DS include the more intelligent ones, like Trauma Centre: Under the Knife, Phoenix Wright, Hotel Dusk and the "brain training games. One would imagine third party developers wouldn't do more original things, when in fact the opposite is true.

Game Library: Lots. I don't need to go into it too much. 1000+ games, different ****, what more can you say?

Hardware: The Dual Screens work wonders. The top screen is clear (Clearer with DS lite) and can be shut as a standby facility to conserve power. This also protects the screens from damage, which is something the GBA SP did. The original DS' metallic appearance is nice, and the DS lite looks just as good. The bottom screen/touch screen can be calibrated so that it functions like a dream, and the provided Stylus works perfectly with the DS. The handheld uses a rechargeable pack which can be plugged into the mains, which saves lots of money on batterys. The Wirelesness of the DS means multiplayer no longer needs cables! The DS games come in carts similar to digital camera carts, which are easy to store, but may get lost if you're not careful. GBA games plug into slot 2, but on the DS lite, they stick out, which is a little unfortunate. On the plus side, the DS lite has more brightness settings.

Backwards Compatabilty and Others: All GBA games work, but no GBC/GB games will work. There is also sometimes interactivity with DS and GBA games, which is great. Online capabilities of the DS are also apparent, using Wireless Hubs to connect your DS to the WorldWide Web. In this respect, they can only do more for this!

Playstation Portable (PSP)

Released in response to the DS, initially it took of superbly, but the blandness of the games was soon apparent when Brain Training and other such games came out. Its not a disaster, as it has practically PS2 graphics capabilities, but it probably just won't be as popular.

First Party Game Graphics: In some cases, these are impressive, but others just show that its a handheld PS2. The big screen of the PSP however does take advantage of a wider screen perspective, which improves the games visuals somewhat.

Third Party Game Graphics: Pretty much the same as the first party ones, there are some more stunning games out there, but they tend not to be as noticed. Castlevania Dracula X remake however does look great on the handheld.

Game Library: There are now quite a few games out, but not as many as the DS. It seems the DS is also easier to develop for, and therefore not only are more imaginative games avaliable for the DS, but more traditional ones too. That said, the PSP has a solid library of exclusives, which are also fun to play, and I hope to sample some in the future.

Hardware: The PSP is quite large. Think of it as a rather basic dual shock pad with less buttons, one stick and a massive screen in the middle. I say stick, its more like a thumbtack. Having said that, the Thumbtack is well designed, the D-Pad is too, and the only problems are the lack of L2 and R2 buttons and another thumbtack. The system uses UMDs, which are a nice concept, but UMD movies won't catch on, and to be honest, it doesn't matter if they do. Still, the interface similar to the PS3 one is a nice feature, and the Memory Stick Duo ensures saves are quick and easy to store.

Backwards Compatability and Others: Theres no real official word of this that I know of, but its possible to play PS1 games on the PSP. How do I know this? Well they didn't release Breath of Fires 3 & 4 for nothing, so one would assume the capabilities are there. Some PS1 games are getting updated remakes, which is good for the system. The online functions act very well, and will keep going as long as the handheld system's alive.

Conclusion

Clearly, the DS is dominating the handheld market, and rightly so since Nintendo have dominated the handheld market for years. The PSP is a decent handheld, the best competitor since the Game Gear (SEGA), but it just seems to have been outsmarted by a handheld that gives players new ways to play.

Well, thats your lot for now. See ya later!

1 Year Anniversary

Btw, I joined last year, I'm at lvl9 (52%) and i'm still blogging, though periodically... Thats something to celebrate at least...

Also, I'm 21 this year, so I'm officially old...

Long time no speak!

I'm back for the summer. I have a bunch of stuff to say about games and it will be posted soon!

First of all, I have completed PSU's Offline mode. Its not difficult at all! There was one enemy that remotely gave me a headache throughout the whole experience, and it was a bog standard enemy, not a boss!!! Anyone who hasn't got the full 1000 Points due to not completing Offline mode probably got bored, or surprisingly found a bit difficult. I think I died twice in the whole of the game, and it was the same enemy both times that killed me! (Its on the last level, Huge thing that floats with a Halberd and Shield. Thats the hardest thing to beat...

Bit of Film speak now, if you haven't bought it already or it isn't released where you are yet, BUY HOT FUZZ!!! Its one of the funniest films of 2007, and is from the makers of cult classic: Shawn of the Dead. Even stars some of the cast from that film, and includes some quite gorey bits too. Probably not one for kids, what with the "funk" and "you bar-stool!" (Trying not to swear!!!), but one for anyone else who doesn't care about swearing and some violence.

With me being back for summer, it means lots of things. One: I rate more Xbox 360 games. Two: I get to raid my PS2 collection and Cube Collection, and Three: I can blitz my DS and Handheld stuff too. Its good to game...

Advertising the DS Library

Now you know about as much as I do that sometimes, advertising works. Two games that I've been talking about over the past few weeks have recieved this treatment. One is Harvest Moon DS and the other is Hotel Dusk: Room 215.

In the UK, the DS has a firm grip on Channel 4 Comedy, and in particular shows like Balls of Steel (a show where people do incredibly daring things, e.g. Holding up the traffic with a tractor behind you, or giving people free umbrellas with swear words on them, etc) and Peep Show (The show that made Mitchell and Webb into cult icons). Many things have been advertised, such as Kirby's Canvas Curse, Animal Crossing DS and Mario Kart DS.

So its no surprise that its happening again. This time with said mentioned Harvest Moon and Hotel Dusk. The Harvest Moon one resembles the Animal Crossing one, which is weird. The Hotel Dusk one is actually quite good, even giving a sample of the music. My point to this is that a decent game that one wouldn't have normally thought would be advertised, is being advertised quite heavily! This can only be good for the game and indeed the company Cing.

As of this minute, there are no announcements from CING about next products, but with the sales figures probably going to increase a lot, only time will tell with that. And we hope it is even better than the great game that is Hotel Dusk: Room 215.

Harvest Moon DS?! More like Lacking a Proper Tutorial......DS!

Ok, harsh I know, but I've never seen the point of Harvest Moon. You build a farm, raise animals, maybe get married. Ok, good idea in practice, and I know some of you are already offended about "oh, he doesn't like Harvest Moon, he's a loser!". Well, I'll tell you why.

I don't understand where you're supposed to start. I don't know what the point is, and usually I figure out a plan, just as the kid dies of starvation. Then I try it and it doesn't work. The series has lacked a proper tutorial for those who don't know what they're doing and it badly needs one. Sure Viva Pinata is more kid orientated, but its pretty much the same idea (in a sense) and it HAS a tutorial which makes things more fun.

I've tried to play Harvest Moon DS, after seeing it advertised on the TV and people looking as if they're having fun. I thought, "oh maybe it has a tutorial!!" But no. It has a hint of plot, but no tutorial. It doesn't even deserve a review in my eyes. Harsh I know, but according to the reviews I've seen, its not exactly a thrilling game to begin with. I'll tell you what I gave it. 4.7. This MAY be recifiied if I can understand it, but as of this moment, I do not, and do not wish to.

And if anyone actually comments, make it constructive. I'm more likely to actually take it in if you do. Heck, you might even on the off chance persuade me. But I wouldn't hold your breath..... 

Hotel Dusk: Room 215 - The Imported review saga

So I finally get to review one of the most promising games on the DS in ages. I imported this game at the beginning of the year, when the US managed to get it. Now I enjoyed the game, a lot and I believe that the hype that sprung up about it was something that didn't fall on deaf ears (namely mine). I had a choice when I saw it. I could either go with this, or Phoenix Wright 2: Justice for All. In the end, I flipped. Literally. I'm glad I decided to flip, and I'm glad it was heads. I only have one question...

Why is it that if I imported a game, I can't review it until it comes out in the UK?

Ever since I got it, I wanted to review it. The same with Final Fantasy III and Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime. I wasn't so sure if any of those (at the time) were coming out in the UK. Turns out DQH:RS still hasn't come out, and I highly doubt it will, whereas FFIII comes to the UK around June/July and will be met with great reception. I know Gamespot.UK has to keep a certain amount of reputation, but stretching it to what you can and can't review? That's just plain stupid. The DS' multiregion capabilities make for great news for those who wish to play games that aren't released in the UK. In the end, there are some people who through Importing try to con people out of money. But there are also those who simply want to play what normally they can't play.

Just as a side note: I've played Phoenix Wright 2: Justice for All, and it is also a fantastic game. Many titles that have seen a lot longer stateside than the british isles are those that are brilliant playthroughs. There are some I wish to play, doubt I will get to play all of them, but we can all but dream... 

Real Time Strategy - Given a new lease of life?

With the release of Command & Conquer 3: Tiberium Wars, a question arises. Are RTS games becoming popular once more? Well, more fun certainly. (See review). For the first time, I was losing badly on one mission. I had my second base blown up and my first base looked bleak. I strengthened my defences and made an aerial assault force gun down the enemy base. Took a lot of money, but at least that GDI pondscum didn't destroy that lab ;)

Warhammer 40K did a lot to reinvent RTS games, and its rare that neither Warcraft or C&C did that. Warcraft reinvented itself into a very successful MMORPG, and C&C played around with the series too much for me to care. (Generals, not for me) The thing that makes me play RTS games is that sometimes theres fun to be had, and the thrill of nearly being beaten, only to come back and firmly smack somebody into submission? Its a great feeling.

So while 40K has one more expansion at least to come, and I really hope Tyrannids appear this time!, before the MMORPG route is taken and Warcraft still carries on the MMORPG route, C&C looks to steal the limelight for a few years. Kane is back, and loving it!

My view on new things

Okay, so a few things have been announced during the past few months, and I want to share my views.

 

It has come to my attention recently that Harmonix have merged with MTV and are releasing a brand new franchise called "Rock Band".  Premise being  that you and your mates can sit around your Xbox360/PS3 and rock it out. To be honest, I love the idea, in fact, i'm probably one of the many people who played the first Guitar Hero and thought "the next step is a band". I have high hopes for this game, and the master track ability MTV allows Harmonix will improve things no end. I hope they don't decide to alter some songs like they did in Guitar Hero, and have actual bands that aren't famous, but not Harmonix's own development team doing their own thing as extra songs.

 

Next is the emergance of remakes on the PSP. Two in particular strike me. One is FFT: Lion War, which as we all know is the remake of Final Fantasy Tactics. This is one of those games that I wish to see have a UK release, due to the fact it is awesome. I don't have a PSP, but its important none the same. The only thing more important is the remake of Castlevania: Rondo of the Blood. This never made it outside Japan, so the fact the graphics are updated is cool enough, but Original Mode and Symphony of the Night on one system?! Awesome! Just hope and pray its an updated version of the Saturn version with the extra areas and Maria as secret character. (SotN)

 

Dragon Quest IX. Awesome. On the DS? Buh?!?!?! I haven't understood why they've gone handheld, but it looks great for what its on! Lets hope its as much of a success as DQVIII. Also hope they'll remake the other seven for something :)

 

Grand Theft Auto IV looks beautiful, but people are once again up in rage after finding out its basically set in a copy of New York. I don't get why this is so bad. The only thing I'd say is tasteless is if they decide to put in the two towers. Thats just plain wrong, and I'd doubt they'd do it. If they do, Boycott the game on principle!

 

Anyway, back to updating things. Not only am I doing reviews, but also RPG stuff too. Life is hard work ;)
