In the Year 20XX...

New layout feels good man. Also taking the time to point out the super-duper spelling error for the 3 people that read my last post. Michael Chikils for the win.

I haven't really done a video game-related post in awhile, so I think it's about time. 2010 is shaping up to be amazing. I already know what I'm going to waste my money on in February, but I'm anticipating an E3 shitstorm as well. The first two games I've bought this year are No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle and Bioshock 2. I will probably write seperate posts for both those games eventually.

360 - So many sequels, so little time

Dead Rising 2
Batman Arkham Asylum 2
Fallout: New Vegas
Dead Space 2

We don't really know anything about the first 3 games, except that Dead Rising will feature wheelchairs with guns mounted on them. I have high hopes for Fallout New Vegas, even though I've never made it past level 12 in Fallout 3 and still have no idea how to access my Operation Anchorage expansion pack. I still have to finish the first Batman and Dead Space games, hopefully I will be able to by the time the sequels come out. I also am gaining interest in Lost Planet and Crackdown. I will play the 1st ones before attempting the sequels. They're only like 10 bucks at Gamestop.

XBLA - I need a new hard drive

Mega Man 10
Sonic the Hedgehog 4: Episode 1
Perfect Dark

In case you couldn't tell, Mega Man is a pretty big deal to me. At least the 8 bit games. No one above the age of 12 actually enjoys the Network games.

I am probably sinning against mankind or something by downloading these on my Xbox instead of my Wii, but I like to do achievements on my Xbox, and Sonic the Hedgehog 4 has 1080i/p support so glorious HD version for me. The only thing that worries me is "Episode 1" I don't think anyone wants to download episodes of Sonic games, especially with the track record from Sonic Adventure 1 to the present. Every once in awhile Seven Rings in Hand will come up on shuffle mode on my iPod and while MAKE BELIEVE'S REBORN (added to playlist for future enjoyment) still makes me laugh everytime, I still have a bad taste in my mouth from Sonic and the Secret Rings.


DLC - I bet you the Jews did this

Resident Evil 5 DLC - I know there's a lot of info and pictures on the two new episodes but I don't know exactly what's going to be included. Hopefully more of my waifu Jill, WESSSSSSSSKEERRRRRR, and punching boulders inside of a volcano

L4D2 DLC - Just my own personal idea, but Survival mode with the 4 original survivors and the 4 survivors from L4D2 playing all together would be fucking ridiculous, in a good way. 8 survivors vs 8 infected Versus/Scavenge makes me hard just thinking about it. Then nobody has to worry about being Rochelle, except for the guy that fills the last spot in the game lobby.

Modern Warfare 2 DLC - [GaGa] RG Pr1m3 needs more maps to shoot you in the face with the Spas-12 with and maybe more titles? The only title I want is Five Sided Fistagon, but I have to prestige 5 fucking times to get it. Fuck that. I want more more maps because I'm tired of always playing on Afghan and Wasteland and getting shot in the face the second I spawn, even on Highrise, ALRIGHT I GOT THE BOMB GO THROUGH THE WINDO- (headshot) DICKS. Also, yes, my clan tag is for Lady GaGa, but my queen would not be happy with my overall MW2 performance. Every once in awhile when I join a game server, someone will be like "GaGa? What the fuck is that shit?" And then I'll be like:

...Don't call me GaGa....
...I've never seen one like that before...
...Don't be scared, I've done this before...
....Show me YOUR MOVES. HAH-YEAH-HUUUUH FALCON PUNCH

Then it usually ends with a bunch of 12-years/lonely young males singing Bad Romance into their headsets.

Wii - Yes, there's actually games this year

Super Mario Galaxy 2
Metroid: Other M
Zelda 2010
Red Steel 2
NBA Jam

Again, we don't really know anything about any of these games, except that Red Steel comes out in March. I'm actually really really excited for NBA Jam. NBA Jam was one of the first Genesis games I ever had, and I remember being pissed that I couldn't be Jordan or Shaq. The screenshots had Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett and Larry Bird in it. Which was enough to convince me. It almost makes up for EA not making an NBA Street game as good as NBA Street Vol2. Three Michael Jordans on one team? I think I just broke the game.

-Pokemon Soul Silver

I don't even need to give a description for this. The only thing I have to complain about is the addition of moves from R/S and D/P generations. I swear to fucking god, if they've fucked up Ampharos's moveset. I will fucking bomb Japan. I actually checked Serebii after typing this. It's actually pretty good now. Now Ampharos will go from being under-used to over-used. Feels bad man.


-The Inevitable Engineer update for Team Fortress 2.

It is quite possible that by the time all of these games are released, Valve will not have released the update for the last class that needs an update, the Engineer. I think it's because everyone knows that once it's out. It will be 9v9, and everyone will be engies. Sentries everywhere. Dispensers everywhere. Completely useless teleporters everywhere. The servers will fucking crash.

I don't even want to think about the achievements for the Engineer either. TF2 achievements are fucking retarded. "Uber a cloaked spy and backstab a heavy eating a sandvich on a control point" then you do it and then it's like ONLY 19 MORE TIMES TO GO. And people wonder why they use achievement servers and unlockers. It's actually an effective system, I'm just pissed that I can't get a hat that isn't a Ghastly Gibus



not really related, but fucking hilarious nonetheless

I'm sorry for the lack of pictures, I was feeling lazy after working so hard on the new layout. I say I work hard because I had to do it with the touchpad on my laptop instead of my mouse.
