This commercial pisses me of at so many levels. First of all the people responded to only two questions, of the supposed three that they had to answer, and the second question was answered with a “maybe”. The woman said hit the gas, that’s three before the last question was answered. WTF? Grrrrrr!!!!!

Taking a Brake
May 10th, 2007I have been off and will continue to be off my blog for a week or so. I have finals, Prom, and graduation to worry about. If anything really interesting comes up I might come back on to post, but for now all I had really planned was the usual rants.
Pokémon Diamond and Perl(Part 1 of 3)
April 26th, 2007
I haven’t posted much recently because I’ve been busy carving, finishing school, and playing my new DS game. I’ve owned the Pokémon Game Boy games Red, Blue, Yellow, Gold, Silver, Pinball, and Trading Card Game. I never really bought all that many games for the GBA, so I never played any of the GBA installations to the Pokémon series.
Pokémon Diamond and Perl came out four days ago. I have been waiting for this to come out for quiet some time now. I finally bought Pokémon Diamond two days ago from a Gamestop. I absolutely love it, I’ve played Wi-Fi and I love the voice chat. I love the new features and the kick ass soundtrack, I will post some more when I have some more time and impressions. But for now if you want to play against me in a Wi-Fi match, Go to Insaneent.net and post your friend code on the Pokémon thread.
Damn Stickers
April 17th, 2007
(from left to right: A sonic 2 damaged due to Stickies, 2 NES games somewhat damaged by Stickers, 3 GameCube game cases damaged by stickers, An unnecessary sticker on a Hitman 2 case)
These damn stickers that game stores keep putting on there used games are really making me mad Pissing me off . Starting with modern games, game stores like EBgames and Game Stop, tend to make it hard to take their products stickers hard to take off, I don’t know why that’s just what they do. But when game stores put stickers on the cover of classing NES, SNES, N64, and Sega Genesis’s, thats a slap in the face to those who think that these classic games deserve some respect for there presents in the establishment of the gaming industry.
I had bought a Hitman 2: Silent Assassin game for my GameCube, on the front there was a sticker of the ESRB rating for M for Mature, Even know M for mature was clearly labeled on the same side of the box, this sticker serves no purpose, there was no reason for this sticker to be on the box, So why is it on there? Why would they waist money for stickers that are not needed?
(from left to right: 16 movie cases bought from Blockbuster with Stickers, Sticker on the paper itself rather than the plastic, 5 failed attempts to remove the sticker from the DVD Cases, 2 stickers on cardboard movie case)
And Blockbuster seems to know that stickers on there dvd’s piss people off, because rather than them simply putting the stickers on the plastic cases so they’re easy to come off, they choose to put the stickers directly on the paper cover clip, to make sure if you try to peal them off you tare of some of the movie description with it. Also If blockbuster puts there stickers on the special Warner Brothers DVD cases, they are nearly imposable to get off, but that’s partially not their fault, but the fault of warner bros. for trying to brake down the standers of the DVD casing industry.
Virginia Tech Shooting
April 16th, 2007
My heart goes out to the victims and the families of the victims of the Shooting at Virginia Tech High school. I heard about this driving home from school on news radio, I hope everyone can take some time out of their day, today or tomorrow, to pray for them and to pray that an event like this doesn’t happen again.
F**k Neversoft and Activision
April 15th, 2007
All right, I have every Tony Hawk Game made cross-console, Except for the current generation’s release. I bought Tony Hawk Pro Skater 4, Tony Hawk Underground, Tony Hawk Underground, Tony Hawk Underground 2, and Tony Hawk American Wasteland all at the “brand new” Game Cube price of $50. I also bought Tony Hawk Pro Skater 1,2 and 3. used.
Less then a year ago, it “killed me” to hear that they were not going to make the Project 8 for the Wii. Instead they chose the kiddy, Non-free roaming, SSX Tricky Style, slap in the face, Tony Hawk Downhill Jam and even now they are making that Downhill jam the for the PS2. Downhill jam was still published by Activision but instead of Neversoft the game was developed by Toys For Bob. So basically Neversoft forgot about Nintendo. It wasn’t about graphics because the game was made for all other systems: PlayStation 3, Playstation 2, PSP, Xbox 360, Xbox. It not about controllers because of the classic controller, or even if they thought not enough people had the classic controller, there is style the Game Cube controllers. So WTF Neversoft? WTF happened?
If your looking for a game that will fill the free roaming void that THDJ, Dave mirra is the closest thing you’ll get soon. Carve Entertainment plans to publish a ported version of The PSP game Dave Mirra BMX Challenge some time around June this year for the Wii. Although the the Mirra Francaise is coming to the Wii, I have yet to see any Information for a Skating game for the Wii.
Ciara Talks About Her Gender Switch in Her songs?
April 15th, 2007“Would the rules change up?…
Or would they still apply?…
If I played you like a toy?.
Sometimes I wish I could act like a boy.” ~ Ciara-Like a boy
The subject of this song brings many questions. Why would she right a song about changing the role of her gender if she just had a possible carrier killing “rumor” about her being born with a Penis male-reproductive organ?
Associating Games With Other Things
April 13th, 2007
I’ve usually have two Television sets setup at my gaming area. One to play games and one to watch cable or DVDs.
Recently I can recall playing Dave Mirra Freestyle BMX 2 on Game Cube, and thinking of George Lopez Quotes from an episode that I watched years ago. When ever I go back to Tony Hawk Underground 2 I think of Simpson’s Quotes, the same With BMX XXX.
I never actually beat Luigi’s Mansion, every once in a while and play it for a few minutes and try to remember where I was at, whenever I play it I remember the day I got My Game Cube, Luigi’s mansion being the first game for the system I ever had. I also remember the fact that I didn’t have a memory card until after a weak or so of having the game.
Tony Hawk American Wasteland, I beat on it’s hardest setting in 2 days. I beat it in my basement and every time I play it I think of things that happened to me those two days, I remember my brother was home and he Kept yelling at me that I’m waisting my life playing video games.
When ever I play Pac-Man World 2, I think of kanYe West’s The College Dropout. I probably played the majority of the game listening to that album.
Metroid Prime and WarioWorld and Hitman 2 were that last three games that I bought before Getting a Wii, I definitely associate these games with the few months of anticipation of getting the Wii.
I Know whenever I play a retro game, Like Super Mario Bros 1 or 3, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Caveman Games, and what have you.
Anyways I was wondering if other people have these type of thoughts? Do you ever associate games with something else, something that happened to you while you were playing a game?
