Xbox 360 Visualiser...

...Sucks. 1. It is made by Llamasoft Jeff "I should have stopped with the Amiga" Minter's company. 2. Music does not sync up with the images. 3. All the images are subliminal, either with floating X's or floading boxes. 4. When chaning tracks the visualiser must be cancelled, then the user has to scroll through the songlist whith annoying blips and bloops. 5. Someone who has watched it has probably killed someone. (Help me Jack, the visualiser made me kill.)

Dragon ball: Tenkaichi Budokai 2! Wnak

This one is especially for Cunzy as he LOVES the Dragonball Series, I don't know that much about it because I'm 25 and dont watch cartoons anymore. It comes out on the 27th October! it has 130 characters, I dare you to name one other fightin game with that many characters, I DARE YOU.

Playstation 3 only £500!

WHoa! So it's been a bit Hellbound Angels round here with all the updates. However, today's update has some serious gravity. Bully the New Rockstar Game has been targeted by Jack Thompson and no doubt the International American Unsatisifed Angry Housewives and Mothers For Justice (IAUAHaMFJ). The Beeb has the scoop. "I'm pretty sure that the game is harmful to minors," Mr Thompson told the Washington Post newspaper. Seriously who gives a shit about minors anymore? Minors smoke, drink, get pregnant, get fat, get kidnapped by paedos, beaten by American Mothers, beaten by their fathers, fiddled with by Uncle Amber, bullied at school, get mumps, chicken pox, peform inordinate amounts of fellatio in the back of cars, take lots of drugs beat up the ederly, don't have to work, they still fall in love and they don't have bills to pay. SOUNDS LIKE THE LIFE WE ALL WISH WE COULD HAVE!!. I reckon if Jack Thompson and the concerned mothers of America had a week of

Buzzword(s): Micro-transaction

Micro-Transaction : (adj) 1. A small payment taken from a holding sum. 2. a very small transaction. 3. Anal Rapage. Right for those of you who dont know Micro Transactions are getting more and more widespread throughout the gaming community. X-Box live is already a user of this system, the user buys some Points using real world cash, the points are then redeemed for virtual "prizes"from in game content to Dashboard skins. But where does it all end? Lately i heard some rather sick news, the Gran Turismo that will be coming out for the PS3 will be reliant on these Micro-Transactions. The game will come with a poultry amout of cars and tracks, the user then purchases cars and tracks based on the progress he/she has made. Anyways GT team are saying that there will be literally 100's of extra content to download. I did some calculations based on the prices they gave and it totalled just under $1000 for all tracks and cars... $1000 to get a 100% complete rating Fuck that.

The NES was pushing it but...

Image
According to Guardian Gamesblog there will not only be NES, SNES, N64, Master system and Megadrive games available to download via "micro-transactions" but also Commodore 64 titles. This tenuous link allows me to talk about the last great game to ever come out on the C64. Mayhem in monsterland was a platformer from Apex (The creators of Creatures) and published by Codemasters. It was a great wee game each level was split in 2 with the dark world and light world. In the dark world Mayem (the yellow dinosaur pictured above) would collect magic dust from all over the level then hand it in to a giant dinosaur who would spread it round the land making it a light and happy world. Mayhem had two main attacks, he could jump on enemies heads ( a la Mario) or do a dashing spin attack ( a la Sonic), and as much as these attacks were the norm of the time the game (which many were lacking at this time) had a real sense of style and playability. Anyways check out the site , apparent

R.I.P Old Friend

Image
This is the eulogy I gave at a recent friend's funeral. Sorry for the mushiness but I'm just so upset :( It felt like we never really got to know you, you were taken from us too early. When you first walked into our lives, we were full of darkness and violence but you were like a ray of light through the dark. You had such a sense of fun just like your old man. The reason you aren't here today is immediately obvious, you just weren't supported here. Overly long "Localisation" processes, zero visibility in many stores especially GAYM, expensive second hand games, months and months with less single format releases than the Xbox 360. Yet look at those you brought to us; Eternal Darkness, Super Smash Brothers, Resident Evil 4, Pikmin and Animal Crossing to name but a few. You showed us the full extent of what could be done with limited gubbinz under the hood when other formats were releasing rubbish clones of old games but, even back then the beginning of your

And... we're back

Yeah so apologies to all our fans! but we're back up and running now sorry for the extended break, we shall blame this on our Hosting Site people making love to the "Gay-button". Things that happened after we were so rudely removed from the internet... Wii relese date announced. More Sony Lies. Sony Racism UK:R does amusing post. Kingdom Heart II released (then i released) I quit WoW Anyways Good to be back, enjoy.

Pirate Ninja or Zombie Sasquatch?

Image
I thought pirate ninja, especially considering I decided to make my whole town ( Gaylando) gay because that really matters in videogames, however, the answer was Zombie Sasquatch. That's right folks I'm talking about Animal Crossing Wild World. Recently Team That guy's have all bought AC:WW. We'll be giving out friends codes here just as soon as the UK gets Wi-Fi. Seriously, checking for Wi Fi hotspots in my top secret London location reveals 3 BT Openzone Phone Boxes, 2 student unions and 4 pubs; all of which I wouldn't dare pull my DS out an play in because: 1) It'll get stolen 2) If I'm with anyone else it's really antisocial 3) If i was on my own in a pub it would be weird 4) I'm not standing in a phone box for 2 hours playing my DS. Aside, from the WiFi problems, probably should move to Norwich for two reasons , AC:WW is as good as the original and as good as everyone out there says it is, which is a good job really considering the absolu

Fatal1ty is a cock

Image
Yeah so for those of you who don’t know Fatal1ty* (hereon in referred to as “Cock”) he is a Pro-Gamer. He won some competitions playing FPS’ like Quake and Unreal. Anyways so now this guy has his own brand a selection of Keyboards, Mice, headphones etc. Which brings Thatguys to think that we should bring out our own selection of hardware. Our idea is to create some kind of hands free device which allows wanking at the same time as playing specifically for: Dead or Alive. Dead or Alive: Beach volleyball SSBM, for looking up the skirt “that” trophy of princess Streetfighter II, get two Chun Li’s to bounce about making that “Hup” sound and perhaps KO her just as climax occurs. Devil May Cry We have already mocked up a controller: +  All we need now is for Nintendo to “release” a virtual Spluff-the-biscuit game. Multiplayer fun! Which leads me to another thought; the classic Spluff-the-biscuit game, the rules are the last person that unloads on the buiscuit has to ea

Soooo Lucky- Dino Masters

Image
I was this close (makes a "very close" hand gesture) to buying this game the other day. DS, Dinosaurs? . Gamespot gave it 2.4 out of ten terrible. But it looks so good! I mean look at it! It's got everything, maybe. Hang on Aralosaurus? It's a bit of an obscure dinosaur but...oooh one of those crabs from sonic and a Mario ? block. I wonder what rearity means? I don't know but it's got one star for rearity, that might be good. It's even got foram impressions in the rock like real stratigraphic sequenes. They are a bit big though. I wonder what 165 and 41.9% mean. Sorry, gamespot I might have to get this anyway. UPDATE More disbelievers! Something is up though . Anonymous gave it a whopping 10! and a "excellent game i would recomend it to everybody." It's a conspiracy! I want Dinosauria goodness!

Exclusive Interview with the Auchinawa DJ

Image
As promised I have managed to secure us an exclusive interview with the headlining DJ at Auchinawa! Her name is KaiserTia andas it turns out that she is a qualified maniac, because she once bit Cunzy11. 1) Welcome, Stranger . So, boring things first. As a "lady" gamer, where do you stand in the whole girl gamers issue? Do you feel you are stigmatised at all because of your genetic make up and/or your gaming hobby? Or is it simply that you beat Richie most of the time which is why he resorts to sexist remarks. Pfft. I personally don't want any special treatment just because I'm a girl. Most of the games specifically made for girls are rubbish anyway. Give me a shotgun and some zombies any day! I think any girl that knew how to pick up a controller the right way was seen as a bit of a novelty in the bad old days, but this is something that is inevitably changing. Every year I'm meeting more and more girls that are into games in some way or another, and I

That Gamestation Ad What's On T'idiot Box

Have you seen it? Have you seen it? Basically, there are two guys; one is playing a FPS, I don't know which one, on their setee (fuck you couch). The guy who isn't playing is eating toast, or something, and making fake guns noises which pisses the gaming guy off, for some reason. Then there's a voiceover that says "annoyed that you are constantly reminded that you could have bought your games cheaper?", which doesn't make sense but I didn't hear the commentry guy properly. Then the first gamer guy is in a room with another guy playing a driving game, I don't know which one, and the first guy is making driving noises and the new guy shouts "Shut up", or something, and it's an advert for Gamestation. Ok, so it isn't that great and I've only seen it once, but for the first time in my life, it's an advert that depicts guy gamers in their "stereotypical environment". We don't get many game adverts in the UK on telly.

Where are they now?

Image
Every self respecting games blog, at one time or another, runs out of ideas and does a hilarious "where are they now" post featuring a videogame character who was in one or two games but hasn't been seen since. They are often lame and it annoys me that no one can come up with something original these days. In other news we've managed to catch up with videogame legend the Nemesis who has s.t.a.r-red (pun intended!) in Resident Evil 3, Resident Evil 3 (GC), Under the Skin and on the Silver Screen in Resident Evil: Apocalypse. Cunzy11: So, you were fantastic as the relentless monster stalker in Resident Evil 3 . In mario 64 , what do you have to collect to progress into new areas? Nemesis: S.T.A.R.S Cunzy11: Absolutely. It must have been interesting for you to hook up with Jill and Carlos again for Under the Skin . I imagine it was a lot of fun! What game show am I describing: Musical talent show in which amateur lookalikes and soundalikes impersonate their

Brain, My arse

Image
Right so I got a copy of brain academy on the DS and I have played through it done all the practice stuff and I have got an A ranking on the Test thing, but I have realised why all these Brain training games are around £20. There’s no replayability. That’s it you get a medal saying your smart and you have the top rating, I have barely had this 3 weeks and already it’s a cartridge gathering dust. Anyways! Official that guys review: The game is shallow and disappointing. Fun for like a couple of weeks, but essentially it’s a glorified Warioware. Get that instead. 4/10. flacid.

Your Guide To Buying A Game

Image
Both Gamers new and old should all be aware of the correct procedure for buying a game from a shop (these were the common places for games purchasing before the internet). Game stores are, in theory, a paradise, a library dedicated to the pure wasting of time playing in made up worlds. However, if you do not adhere to the strict rules you may run into trouble from the Game Police. They will come to your house and delete all your save games and give you a stern talking to. So, to set the scene you wish to buy Mario Kart DS from your high street venue. 1) Before entering the store it is custom to start sweating. The store is fully modified to help you, the heating will be on max throughout the year and little in the way of ventilation is on offer, however, it helps to start moistening outside. This is to maintain the sweet aroma of boys in the morning in all game stores. Non-compliance and you'll be seeing the gaming police. 2) You wander over to the DS section. If you see a g

Cocmputer Games 0 Playing Outdoors 1

I was in WHSmiths in Waterloo Station on Saturday, I won't bother you with why, and I spotted one of the local newspapers with the same headline as the title of this post. Turns out, the newspaper surveyed some of the Thames yoofs and they said they preferred playing outdoors to playing video games. Firstly, the survey is a bit pointless because, through no fault of their own, children are essentially stupid small adults. I imagine that most children would prefer to spin around in circles until they threw up rather than go to school. I reckon they would also prefer to play videogames than eat vegetables too. For some reason these surveys (I know they are out there) never seem to make the headlines. Secondly, no fucking shit! I'd prefer to play outdoors if I couldn't play games like Resident Evil 4 or GTA: San Andreas because of the ratings. Also, I'd go further than playing outdoors, if I was stuck with playing shitty multiformat pixar/disney/other CGI film maker t
