Aos 5 anos de idade eu tinha um trauma, um Atari e tudo o que eu conseguisse ler de HQ. Olha onde eu vim parar.

Mas o assunto não é esse - embora seja deveras cômico e explicativo para vários fatos - , o caso é que lançaram Megaman 9  e a nostalgia bateu forte.  Talvez por que eu escute aquele monte de moleque falando que aqueles jogos antigos eram legais. Vão à merda. Eu já tinha matado sofrido todo ódio do mundo  com Battletoads, Ninja Gaiden, Shinobi, Phantasy Star ou Contra quando vocês mal eram um acidente de percurso dos seus pais. [ Que esteja frisado que eu não tenho orgulho NENHUM disso. Quase. ]

Bom, mais do que isso, eu sofri dos 8 aos 16 bits, suei dos 16 aos 32, com muito custo, escalei dos 32 aos 64 e nunca consegui passar dos 128. Somente devido à caridade de estranhos fui capaz de ver a ascenção da 7ª era dos consoles , vi os jogos 2D irem sumindo gradativamente rezando pra que a Capcom e a SNK não me deixassem na mão e parassem com essa putaria de jogo de luta em 3D pq Street FIghter e King of Fighters foram feitos assim e assim devem morrer. Quem jogou Street Fighter EX e aquele KoF em 3d que eu nem lembro o nome devem concordar.

O caso, realmente é que eu não esperava que depois de 21 anos desde Megaman 1 [ OMG ele pode ser preso D: ] saíria um jogo em 2D com gráficos em 8 bits pro PS3 e que teria até embalagem especial de cartuchão. Sério, eu mataria qualquer pessoa da imprensa que recebeu um desses pra ter o "cartucho" em mãos, c acha que é besteira? Se liga.

Eu sou fanboy,ok? Não tenho como mentir que eu não sou. Cresci Jogando essa porcaria desse jogo e devo ter jogado a maioria dos jogos desse robô estúpido de fraldas e canhão no braço. E infelizmente não tenho um PS3 pra jogar essa merda. [ O que significa que eu vou parasitar o Auron.]

Não era pra ser um post informativo ou com milhões de explicações, escárnios ou qualquer um dos meus típicos trejeitos. É só um post de um cara que gostava MESMO da época em que os 8-bits eram dominantes e que se divertia sem 3D ou um monte de efeitos especiais e blablabla. Eu gostava quando os jogos eram realmente difíceis , nãoq ue eu realmente me incomode com as superproduções, mas a dificuldade ficou lá longe e em alguns casos nem uso os cheats de praxe, deixando praquelas vezes em que eu só quero ver o jogo e não perder tempo upando, sem sentido.

Pensei até em fazer uma timeline de Megaman com Epic WINS e Epic FAILS mas não tive paciência e meu tempo vem sendo tomado pra faze o Casting Call das Crônicas de Arthur de Bernard Cromwell, à ser postada em breve, fechando as atualizações de HQ,Games e Cinema, antes de trazer meus suplentes pra cá pq não consigo fazer isso girar sozinho.

Ah, eu tenho que ressucitar o podcast tb,mas isso é apensa um detalhe.

Por enquanto, fiquem com um fanvideo de Megaman, que apesar da gritaria tem uma letra muito foda.

Por hoje é só e da próxima vez eu falo sobre as aventuras nos fliperamas do centrão de SP e como o Neo Park acabou com a minha vida.

Lekabel sonha com um mundo onde vai poder jogar todos os jogos que não jogou desde Sengoku Basara 2

A few days ago we told you of TNA's viral marketing campaign, well now TNA Wrestling's Video Game commercial has hit airwaves. Whats odd about it is it reminds some people of the FYE ad running with MVP and Batista in it. Enjoy!

Buddy Bear said to his new friend Robbie the Weasley, "Hey man, let's go shoot some bitches."

Rob replied, "What?"
Buddy said, "Yeah man, let's go shoot some crazy bitches."

"No, what, what? What kind of bitches, what?"

"Yeah, some big ol' wobbly ass bitches walkin' down the street man, it might be fun man, c'mon, man, c'mon," Buddy said with smirks and jabs to the ribs.

"Man, I don't want to be going out and shooting some ass bitches what the hell man."

"Assbitches! That is why I like you man, sayin' stuff like that, man, this is why you're my boy Robbie, this is why you gotta be with me when we start shootin' some bitches, man!"

"I just want to go home and eat some hamburger helper, why do we gotta go out and shoot some bitches?"

"Because they ain't going to go and shoot themselves!" Buddy was giving this idea of his two thumbs up!

"Violence is not the answer." Robbie was being pragmatic.

"You don't even know what the question was!" shouted Buddy, not sure of what he was saying after he found Robbie's not well-hidden stash.

"I think you're just a mindless individual who conforms to the visceral appeal of the glorification of violence by the media."

"Naw, man, you know me, man, I ain't gonna do you like that, man. Don't be a ho, man. Be a bro, man!"

"Screw this, I'm getting a beer. Wait a second, why does the refrigerator smell like deodorant and listerine? Why does the toilet not flush? And why is the garbage can full, we just changed it yesterday?

"I took a shit, chewing gum, and bootleg porn dvds, in that order." Buddy scratched the back of his head and his arm a little.

"Damnit, you frickin bear!"

"This reminds me of a dream I had. Where Hermione, Harold, and Haggard went through the Phat Tollbooth and fought a bunch of battletoads, froggers, kermit the frogs, and teenage mutant ninja turtles. Actually, Haggard was using his axe, Hermione was using her spells, and Harold was just standin around in a french maid outfit. Do you know what this could mean?"

"What? Did you really have a dream like that?"

"Nope, but I just took a dump on the couch."

"Damnit, you frickin bear!"

"Hey, chill out Robbie, don't be grizzly, be polar, think polar, dude" Buddy burped while holding up his can of beer.

"How are you supposed to be helping me with this quest to save the world from Harold and the Golden Army?"

Buddy smacked his lips and threw away the recently finished rocky road ice cream container. He nonchalantly inquired, "What quest?"

"WHAT?! You're supposed to be here helping me with a quest to save the world from the Golden Menace! Remember? Your obscure references to a cataclysm involving the sky turning gold and how there's a holy cow? That's the reason I let you stay here? Huh? Ring any bells or nothing?"

"Oh, yeah, about that. Hermione already fixed that a long time ago. It was a bunch of stuff about a Goldeneye and a golden gun and a goldfinger. I'm just chillin'." He took another bite of Domino's pizza.

Robbie was not pleased. "So why are you still here?!"

"Shut up, you my bitch now! Are you a bitch? Yes, you are bitch, yes you are!"

"Now see here my good man, I am a respectable robber that does not have to stand for being referred to as a bitch from a punkass bear that eats my food and dumps his business in refrigerators!"

"Aw, don't be like that... After all, I am a respectable bear that won't be restricted to not mauling your ass in your own house. I have 7 kids that I am trying to avoid. 7. Plus, I took a dump in your dishwasher."

"Damnit you frickin bear! Dumps like a truck..."

"Nope, there's not a way we can do anything about it. You're going to have to face the fact that you got a bear living with you."

"Can you at least use the coaster for your cup of rollerskate milkshakes? Which, I might add, have made a  considerable mess of my Blendtec blender."

"Hm..." The bear was ponderous. He replied, "Hey, it'd be like a roller coaster! Get it, roller coaster?!" Nudge nudge, jab ribs, wink wink, Buddy did. "And I sure hope my tongue doesn't slip about your secret identity!"

"What secret identity?"

"You're Super Zammo Man!"

"What...."

"And you know what's Super Zammo Man's favorite thing to do is?"

"Not clean feces!" He said with a huge grin and shining eyes.

"That's right! Shoot bitches with me at the vet's place!"

"What??? Like..."

"Yeah!"

"Like, shots. Like give them shots. Female dogs."

"Yeah Super Zammo Man! Let's go shoot some hot dog ass bitches!"

"Ugh... I need to lie down."

"Not on the couch!" Buddy tried to warn him...

"Damnit you frickin bear! What is this on the couch? Were you eating corn? How much corn were you eating? Damnit! That's it I'm mad, I'm seriously pissed. I'm going to go frickin' Zammo the shit back into your ass whether or not, you are a bear, you are gonna get something handed back to you!"

Buddy was silent. He was shocked. Suddenly, he became sincere, "I'm sorry man. It was the fear of getting tranq'd and roped up out in the street by the popo. I got nervous, dawg. I was afraid of them being all like "We gonna be all in yo grill buddy bear in the big city. Not big enough for bears," and business like that. I don't give a shit non-compulsively, man... (No pun intended). You can understand this from a bear's perspective, can't you? And if not a bear's perspective, a buddy's perspective?"

"Argle fargle rargle. Frickin bear... Maul my ass why don't ya..." Robbie struggled for words. "Fine! Just try to refrain from being turd burglar!"

"Yes sir, Super Zammo Man, sir!" Buddy Bear gave him his word on the Scout's honor.

...

But he wasn't a Scout...

Later that day, Robbie broke his ankle. It was because Buddy mutated into a zombie tiger and attacked.

The unrefined metallic ore is called, coltan. After processing, coltan then turns to a powder known as tantalum, which is widely used in the production of electronic devices such as cell phones, computers, and of course gaming consoles such as PS2.

Rwandan military groups and western mining companies have invested hundreds of million of dollars into the refining of this metal, and as a result, children have been forced to work in the mines, and the addtion of 'prisoners-of-war' to the industry.

But why does this focus fall on Sony and the PS2? It started with the consumer demand back in 2000, when Sony had trouble producing enough of the consoles to meet the consumer needs. They eventually needed an increase in the production of electric capacitors, which led to the "frenzied scouring of the Congolese hills known for being ripe with coltan."

"Sony has since sworn off using tantalum acquired from the Congo, claiming that current builds of the PS2, PSP and PS3 consoles are sourced from a variety of mines in several different countries."

FULL STORY

Raid went well tonight. Was asked to heal on the druid instead of dps on the spriest, but that's cool. First night in BT for the guild and we 2-shotted Najentus, and 1-shotted Supremus & Shade of Akama. I chock up the 2shot to terrible server problems due to the new patch and whatnot, I think we could have 1shotted him, even w/some of the n00bs.

Luke decided we should roll alli on Carl's server to fuck w/him when we get to 70. I said it was a great idea, so of course we picked night elf warriors and named ourselves Starsky and Hutch (with ascii for the a and u). Should be fun, if Luke at least decides to keep it up ;p.

So I left off on Sunday? That was a decent day. Involved drinking at home, swimming in the pool, and slip-and-slide action. I played bartender as I mixed up delicious malibu baybreezes for the adults and just pineapple/cranberry juice for the kids. I got BIT the hell up, one on my stomach by a horse fly the size of my FIST (at least that's what it felt like) and it left this huge red circle that was literally the size of my computer mouse (if it was circular). This other bite, from what I don't know, left a lump on my shoulder, ugh. Fuck outdoors lol.

Monday at work was meh. Went by quick, not much that I can remember on the interesting side. That night however (last night) was guild meeting and wii hacking fun. Wii hacking went well, got some emulators on there and games working, and it seems that the region free hack may be working, but as Gavino says "looks like someone has a trip to Clinton to make". Should pick up that $20 Japanese Naruto game for Wii and see if it works :). Played the hell out of Battletoads / Double Dragon, maybe I'll do a review on it for the blog (gotta love pulling chicks' hair, kicking them in the ass, and tossing them around like dolls).

Speaking of doing stuff, Gavino and I talked about getting some stuff done, like skits and show related stuff. I suggested we do the contest over at hv20.com, involving a skit between 2 - 6 min, with teh general theme of fire (hot, flames, heat, warmth, etc). Coming up w/ideas is hard ><. We had an idea after drinking though, about doing a comedic commercial parodying the "new, best invention" type commercials, where one item makes doing a menial job so much easier (*black and white with announcer over* "Having trouble making those HORRIBLE eggs?" *woman slamming eggs on the pan, everything going everywhere* *everything goes to color and shows new-fangled item* "Use the Eggalator 6000" - that type of commercial). Anyway, our parody would be something along the lines of "Tired of all hard WALKING everywhere?" with one of us stumbling and crashing into things because walking now has become impossible to do, in black and white of course. I'm sure we'll think of something amazing to go with it and finally make another skit.

Another thing we've been discussing is our show ideas. One that Gavino seems to like a lot is the Movie Brothers. One brother has it all, money, people, time, experience, and the other has the bare minimum, if even that: poor, lonely, inexperienced. They both had a video production studio together, but due to conflicting ideas, they split and decided to go off on their own. They each make movies together still, but each on their own and mix them up afterwards for a final product. It's a great idea, we thought of some really funny things to do, and I'm sure after collaberation and more brainstorming, we may make it into an interesting show.

The other show idea I had was a show called Blue Screen of Death (I think the name, if anything, was good for a show for us). The show idea would be two video game loving, wanna be video show making friends who, every episode, come up w/some idea for a show, and each ep would showcase them trying to make that show and maybe what the show would look like if they did a pilot. And if I remember correctly, the ending would involve something that would make the screen end up showing a BSoD: didn't have to be computer involved, maybe start off like that, with someone spilling something on a computer or bumping into the computer, and evolve into silly things like being slapped in the face causing the BSoD to show and end the episode.

Anyway, some ideas we've been tossing around, besides other things. I think the main problem now isn't just coming up with ideas, it's more along the lines of actually getting some stuff attempted and filmed. Obviously shows like "Roommates" will take more time due to trying to come up with costumes (this one might be explained in another post), but skits should be easier and not require too much out of pocket expenses and additional preparation time.

I still have the idea of doing reviews on my own to just keep myself busy and try to get my name out there, and of course a personal music video cover of some song that I decide to do...one of the "mouth the lyrics as the camera is dragged around places" type of videos. Might use ppl in it, might not. Hoping I can get to work on it soon, as the idea seems like fun. Starting off w/the camera pointing at me and singing, then the camera being dragged away and pointing to me in another part of the room and then the camera moving to a different part of wherever and me appearing again to continue speaking. It's sort of a lot of editing and making sure I get the camera in the right places (might be hard alone, but I'll see what I can do).

Anyway, back to watching this weeks potentially awful mega64 podcast, praying for the day of a season 3 announcement. After that, it's bedtime. I still have to watch Little Nemo - Adventures In Slumberland, tonight? Nah, tomorrow...gotta be then. Get home after work, mow the front lawn, come in, relax and watch the movie. They want to run ZA tomorrow! I don't want to run it...I do, but I don't. The more time I stay away from WoW when I'm not raiding, the better.

Alright, got another three vids this week. The first two are game related. One is a hilarious prank call to GameStop while the second is a pretty cool/funny vid on Halo 3. The final vid is a re-dub on our all of our all time fave game shows, Legends of the Hidden Temple. It isn't the funniest thing ever but it has its moments.

That someone was wrong. On top of that, I don't even think their comment was anything more than a sentence fragment gone astray with a dash of grandiose and a pinch of ignorance.

And to prove my point, I give you the much maligned but ever respected, "Turbo Tunnel".

THAT, my savvy and tenacious readers, is not state of mind. THAT is difficult.

Até hoje nunca consegui fechar este game. Demorou para ele aparecer no Virtual Console não?

En cuestión, se trata de varias llamadas que realizaron ciertas personas a GameStop, preguntando por el juego "BattleToads", un juego de luchas de ranas de NES para Wii (Como es de suponer, no existe...) . Atentos, que algunas son auténticos puntazos de ingenio xDDDD
