So today I ordered these 2 things from amazon:
And they can't come soon enough.
Some Xbox 720 rumors
Blocking used games-Microsoft is thinking about adding a feature to make used games unplayable. Um, I'm not sure how that will work seeing how every game will be used afterwards. Also wouldn't that hurt Gamestop(even though I haven't shopped there since 2010)?
Radeon 6670-Honestly, I hope this isn't true. I mean, for consoles it's powerful, but it's really a low-barely mid range card for today's games. Maybe development costs and the economy are having an effect on this. The Xbox and 360 are known to have the best/powerful gpus of the gen for consoles, so it'll be interesting to see how this plays out.
Blu Ray-This sounds possible, plus more storage is a great thing.
Kinect 2-Um, an upgraded version of Kinect? Ok.
Fall 2013-It's said to come out at that time as well, hope things change(GPU, fighting used games sales) while keeping things the same(Blu Ray).
Another hard game beaten
You know, some games just go over the edge. And that game is Double Dragon 3 on the NES. It is easily one of the hardest games ever. This here sums it all up:
"Was this game programmed by a human??? Good lord man this has to be one of the hardest games of all time, died over 40 times on this damn thing and most deaths were on the last stage. This game is evil. The game gives you one freaking life to make it through, I mean, really now, and you can only use one continue when you die on either the 4th or 5th stage. Combined with ruthless enemies like ninjas that jump all over the place, those buffed guys who throw spears at you, cheap mummies that are impossible to use standing attacks on forcing you to jump kick to ease the fights, enemies that get in your way through traps and enemies that gang up on you too much and a final boss that will make you cry and you have a game that doesn't show mercy. It's like you need to be near perfect in it. This game should had been in more Top 10 Hardest Nintendo games lists."
Even with that said, I prefer it over the crappy Arcade/Sega Genesis versions, those versions with cheap enemies and bosses and bland level design aren't really that fun. They're just stupid hard for the wrong reasons as you die constantly. The music in them are awful. The hit detection in the Genesis version is some of the worst I've seen, I kick an enemy 3 times, nothing happens and then he punches me, WTF game, and not to mention it has the least amount of music. The arcade version rips off your money forcing you to buy extra playable characters, power up your characters, weapons and such to beat the game. Same for the Genesis version, but the arcade version requires real quarters of course. In short they suck, lol.
I'm a Double Dragon fan so I just wanted to point that out, lol. I hated the cartoon show and movie as well and didn't like 5. But I like the 1st 2, 3 on the NES to some extent and the 4th one.
Anyways...
Metro Last Light is delayed to 2013, oh well, saves me money this year, lol.
This article making fun of Call of Duty made me lol:http://games.ign.com/articles/121/1217539p1.html
Skyrim on PC is getting a Creation Kit soon. It allows mods to be easily accessed on Steam and such. Gives me more reasons to play, lol.
The Simpsons Arcade game is coming soon with 4 player online co-op. Oh I remember playing this awesome game back at the arcades in the 90s.
Alan Wake is coming to PC on the 16th for this month with a price of 30 bucks including the 2 DLC. I was going to get this game on 360, but I guess I'm glad my 360 broke in a way.:P
NetherRelam is thinking about doing other games than just Mortal Kombat. This is a good thing IMO, I would like to see them do a arcadey football game like Blitz again.
Ok, in several days I will update on a day that is special to me, stay tuned for that.
