You know you want more stuff!

I found out the over day that if I do a third year of the course I'm doing at the moment, one the modules availiable is Computer Game Developement, so I asked my tutor about it and he says it will be making games coding in java, well thats a start.
I watched TNA Lock down yesterday and it was awsome. It got off to a slow start but it still was good, best matches were Hardy Vs Raven, A J Styles Vs Abyss and the six man X-division match. I give it a rating of 8 out of 10. If only all WWE PPV's were that good. Speaking of which, WWE Backlash is this sunday.

XBox 360 is almost confirmed to be the name of Microsofts next console, below is a picture of the XBox 360 controller, it looks a lot like the Controller S and confirms my worries about lack of innovation in the console. The picture has not been confirmed as real or fake.

Here is trailer of Another code for DS which explains a bit about the story, quality of the movie isn't that good though.
Congratulation are in order as Nintendogs scored only the fifth 40/40 rating from the famous japaneese gaming mag Famitsu, also over 180,000 copies of Nintendogs have been sold within its first week, this in turn has boosted the weekly sales of Nintendo DS to a massive 97,000 units. Well done Nintendo.

New ways to tackal Speeding in the states have been introduced.

Thats your lot, I might write a review for my next update.

PSP Euro Launch and more STUFF!

Sony have announced the first details of the european launch of the PSP. It will launch on September 1st for £179. It will be the value pack that comes with the Console and its battery, 32 MB Memory Stick Duo, remote control headphones, an AC Adaptor, a wrist strap, a cleaning cloth, a pouch and a UMD containing several non-playable demos.
If you want the console just for gaming or media then £179 is a bit steep but if you want it for gaming and media then its a good price, it will sell well as the the brand name "Playstation"is a very powerfull name in europe like it is across the globe. Howeveer I won't be getting untill the price is £100 or below as I don't pay more then £100 for a handheld no matter what ever it can do and beisdes from September onwards there are loads of games to buy for DS, GC and PS2.

A bit of DS Stuff now Nintendo have announced euro release dates dates for Pac Pix due out 20th May and the awsome looking Another code due out on June 24th.
A few weeks back I made a topic at Intrinity about upcoming DS games take a look.

And now for something completly random.
And more randon stuff.

XBox 2 Pics.

Take a look at these pics of XBox 2, these have not been confirmed as real or fake.
They look alot better then the XBox 1 but the size of the console still looks pretty big.

For bigger pics click here and here

Also the console is meant to 64MB memory cards and a removable hard drive, why have both? The removable hard drive is a good idea though.

More mini Reviews, Goeman DS.

Hey peeps, went to work on saturday, it was crap

Here is a very annoying song but its very catchy.

Check out the trailer to Mystical Ninja Goeman. Its looks like its got a lot of touch screen action in the main game.

Also TNA present Lockdown tonight, all eight matches are in the six sides of steel, if these matches are half as good as Trple X Vs America's Most wanted back at Turning Point then this should be a decent PPV.

If your kids are annoying you during a long journey, the picture below is a good solution to your problem.

Also two reviews that I wrote for the intrinity forums.

Timsplitters Future Perfect- Gamecube
TS2 was an absolute classic, it had lots of modes, decent multiplyer and each satge of the single player had a different style to it. TSFP is much of the same, in the single player it is much more story orientated as you chase someone through time and the levels are huge, so huge infact that most span through two missions, thats good but it does mean that there are not as many styles as in TS2. I belive TS2 is better then this but this is still a very worthy purchase.

Wario Ware Touched- Nintendo DS
As nintendo rushed the DS out to compete with the PSP Nintendo needed a game that wpuld show the innotive features of the DS and needed something that was already popular, Wario Ware on GBA and cube had already been a smash hit in japan with its fast fun addictive gameplay so nintendo choose Wario Ware. In Wario Ware touch you have to use the stylus or the mic to complete the micro games, these games have time limits so you either have to do it before the time runs out or survive. The main game consists of themed courses or megamix couses and games include things such as Poping ballons, drawing a path so a stickman can get home, unroll toilet paper, use a bow to hit the target, trap animals and all sorts each course also has boss stages, your aim is to complete as many games as you can and you can only fail four times. YOU MUST PLAY THIS GAME before making an opinion of on it as looking at screens and reading about does not do the game any justice. This game is addictive and fun. It truly deserves this score.

Reviews and stuff

I think I'm getting the hang of this, its not to bad. So what have I got for ya.
I got a TK adress at time of writing it wasn't working but it should be soon http://www.shades-stuff.tk

Microsoft have announced that they will be unveiling XBox 2 on MTV on May 12th before E3, tbh I'm not expecting anything much, just a high powered console with wireless controllers, this will lack innovation and once you get over the pretty graphics you'll find that the gameplay of the games are the same as on its prequal.

Star Wars Ep III on DS actually looks like it could be fun look at the Trailer but then again most Star Wars games tend to suck.

Here are a couple of short reviews for ya of recent stuff I've been playing on the good ole Dreamcast

Trizeal- Dreamcast
The latest Dreamcast release from Japan is yet again a 2D Traditional Shooter conversion from the Naomi Arcade board. Developed by Troubled developer Triangle Service and published by Sega. The action is fast and furious as well as challenging. The ship can fire laser, multiple bullets, Rockets and has a bomb that'll destroy everything on the screen. You can get power ups which will add bullets to the missle mode. The game is hard but easy to start, the speed of the game is awsome and is so much fun to play and the music is pretty good as well. Unlike the last few DC shooters this has a two player mode and actually has some extas like a bonus stage, lifting sub game and you can unlock the ship XIISTAG. My version of the game came with a free bandana and a Bonus Track music CD. Heres the downside, this game is doesn't really further the genre and is not really different to other shooters.
This is well worth the purchase.

Rage of the Streets- Dreamcast(Homebrew)
This is the lastest mod using the game engine Beats of Rage. Beats of Rage is game engine where games like Streets of Rage can be created.
Rage of the Streets is based on Streets of Rage, it contains Axal, Max, Blaze, Skates and Zan. Your mission is to rescu adam, all the special moves are here, the backgrounds are based on Streets of rage but are not directly from Streets of Rage, the music is remixes from the streets of rage games. But the action feels slow and only the "Y" is easy to do, the controller has trouble reconisng the forward, forward, X move which is a shame. But I will still say that this is the best BOR mod to date with Hatchet Ninjas being the second. Download it here
