QUARTER ENDS!!

Yay! I'm so happy the marking period is about to end!! I'm in my third quarter in college and I'm going to my fourth. I'm studing graphic design and it is fun but I'll get into detail on that another time. Right now I'm watching a movie in my class called The Heat of the Night and its really good I can't wait to write a paper about it because it is so similar to all of the topics we've been covering in class. I hope I get an A+ :)

BRAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWL!!!!!

Super Smash Bros Brawl comes out this week and not to mention the huge amount of tournaments appearing like Best Buy and Gamestop. Those who don't even like playing games just play it with your children or friends and I garantee that you will have a great time playing it so far every major game ratings website like IGN, Game Informer give this game a 9.5 out of 10. And that alone makes this game worth trying at least once, and hey, if you don't like it I'll buy it off your hands.

A New Age of Smashing!!!

Thanks to my friends, I have seen the import version of Super Smash Bros Brawl or Super Smash Bros X and let me tell all gamers out there.................it is BETTER THAN HALO!!! Oh my god!! is this game good we got over 30 characters, the stages are cool, the music......just awesome!!!, and the Subspace Story is hot with its CG animations. So far some people have posted their videos on youtube but to tell you the truth they played like a bunch of noobs because they were doing free for all with level 1 computers and they were losing. C'mon people!! this is brawl!! show me some of that MLG (Major League Gaming) action where legends are born like Ken, Chudat, PC Chris, Mew2King, and many more. But whatever, I know I'll be showing off my Mario, Metaknight, and Pikmin skills when I get the game on March 9, and hopefully it won't get pushed back again. And when I finally have a 24/7 access to the game it will be a New Age of Smashing!!!

Brawl release Jan 31st!!!!!!!

It looks like you can get Super Smash Bros Brawl on Jan 31st which is like two days away however, it is the Japanese version and you need a special chip to convert your nintendo wii. Yea, basically if you can't get this chip you can't play super smash bros brawl I have a couple of friends who are getting the import version because they are beasting to play it that badly. As for me I'm not risking damaging my wii with this chip, last time my friend got the same chip for his Playstation 2 and it over heated his system in two hours and might have crashed it, imagine what would happen if you put it on the wii? Well, whatever, I'm going to have patience and wait till March 9th and get my reserved copy and just cause you get a game mad early doesn't mean you'll be the best, I have been playing Melee when the game came out and I still have trouble beating people who just pick up the game.

Brawl got postponed

Yes its true nintendo officially announce the new release date March 9, 2008. Its funny how they always seem to push back the date, first it was suppose to come out with the launch of the nintendo wii but then they decided to push it back to December 3, 2007. What happened? when December 3 was just around the corner they said "screw everybody we're pushing it back to February 10, 2008" now when it was just two weeks away from the due date they said "I love seeing how they really want this so lets push it back yet again to March 9, 2008". C'mon nintendo stop stalling!!!!

Can't wait till Brawl!!!

If you have bought a nintendo wii since 2006 and have been enjoying many fun games like Wii Sports, The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, Super Mario Galaxy and thats just to name a few. But the #1 most awaited game for the wii is Super Smash Brothers Brawl. Anybody who has played the recent super smah brothers from the past knows this game is hot, the graphics, sound, gameplay, are just awesome. The Character confirm list on the smash dojo website include a variety of different fighters. They got the classics like Mario, Link, Kirby, Pikachu, Samus, Yoshi, DK, Bowser, Peach, Zelda, IceClimbers, and Fox. With brand new fighters also like Metaknight, Pit, Zero Suit Samus, Wario, Lucas, Snake, Sonic The Hedgehog, King DDD, Captain Olimar, Diddy Kong, Pokemon Trainer, and Ike. Its been a huge topic on the smashboards.com site and when it comes out on 02/10/08 everyone either an old gamer or someone who doesn't play games that much must own a copy of this game.
