Boom Headshot!

For unknow reasons, I can not get onto Dave Jaffe's blog. Did he take it down? Is he reworking the blog? Or is he coming to Blogger?

But besides that, I can say I have finally found work around where I live so I'll be under the payroll yet again. Working at Target has been so much fun, well the managers there make it fun. Plus, besides wearing snazzy red t-shirts, I get to score big with games and other electronics, (such as GoW2 maybe hmmm lol) so I'm happy that I got the job and will leave this keyboard, even if its only for a day or two.

Anyway, dazed off right before Game Head was coming on, so I'll be watching that episode with some stuff from the new RE movie, so catch ya around.

If I Could Be A Superhero...

Okay folks, I'm sort of into English humor. While searching for Mr. Bean, I come across more Rowan Atkinson humor! He has made a movie with other English actors to recreate Spider-Man. The humor transformed it into Spider-Plant Man.

Part 1
Part 2

Pretty funny parody. At the end of part 2, the reporter says, Fathers 4 Justice which is noted for their members to dress up as superheroes and scaling buildings. Just for those who don't know it. Anywho, some parts are not funny, but for the most part it is a funny parody.

I Hope This Isn't Chris's Blood...

Okay, those who don't know. I rant, I never rant on forums so right here is where I rant away on the game industry despite it being good or bad. Anywho, we are talking about blood loss and more blood!

Back in the days when the arcade was filled with people, I remember playing Mortal Kombat for the 1st time. My father at my side encouraged me to play it, so I popped some quarters in and played. The game back then was the most intense and violent games. The amount of blood coming out was a lot, even I knew that it was all just fake and I was very young!

Back in 96', Resident Evil gave new meaning to blood spillage along with the whole horror thing despite its b-movie cheese (see: Barry Burton's lines). In some regions of the world, I believe they changed the blood to green, which would look wierd coming out of the player's character.

Today's game has even more blood! I can't really think of a game with more blood in it since every game has an equal share of blood. But with next-gen approaching, could we see more realistic blood loss? I hope so, but the cartoonish 300 pints of blood loss will always be my favorite. Hell, even the most realistic game ISN'T realistic in terms of blood. But then, what's too much blood?

I wish to see more realistic blood loss in the future along with other gross scenes, dunno if there was any gross scenes in video games, I mean to the point where you fucking hurl and can smell it through the screen. That's why I try to stay true to the #0 law of games IMO, your on Earth, there's gravity and if it isn't Earth, you can have your flashy DBZ fight scenes (see: Final Fantasy 7 Advent Children....yes it isnt a game I know).

So in all, I wish to stay true to more realistic blood and hell, even more blood and sick ways of killing people (see: God of War). I mean, what's the worse that can happen...the ESRB give your game an "AO". Hell, we need to see a LOT more of those, just a game without limits..full frontal nudity,sex scenes, gross things, drug usage for 5 minutes and a long story with cursing a lot of cursing. Okay, GTA: San Andreas has a shit load of the word "FUCK" but even that game should of had a "AO" rating.

If only the ESRB knew about Hot Coffee....

Apparently Firefox cant see this

Okay gang, for some reason Firefox can't see the template, so it's not that tough for me to view the text and all, but yes. I have another template for those lovely IE users out there. Hopefully, the template maker can get around to making it for FF and Opera. (cause I'm hearing problems with Opera as well).

Cory and crew, hard at work making God of War 2, had recorded some stuff for SpikeTv's GameHead and the episode came on last night! If you missed the episode, they have it up, or will have it up, on their site @ spiketv.com

I would go into a rant on how games need more blood, but for now, I shall summon the all-mighty Mr.T!
