Minibosses/Persona 3

I can't really decide which news is better, but I'll start with what happened first. This past Thursday I finally got my Minibosses cds! These guys are fantastic (my personal favorite video game band) and they are really talented musicians. I was surprised that they still had cds available and the two month wait was well worth it. I have good news for anyone who wants some great free music...you can actually download all the songs for free off of their website http://minibosses.com ...my personal favs are "Mike Tyson's Punch Out", "Double Dragon", and "Ikari Warriors"!

Go and check out the Minibosses already!

Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3 amazingly found its way into my hands and it's all I've played since Friday (the day the miracle happened). I am about 9hrs in so far and I really love this game. The story is interesting and all the characters have their own unique personalities. The battle system is great too, though I really don't have much experience with the turn-based RPG genre. One of the things I love most about the game is the setting; the fact that it takes place with HS students who go to school everyday and kick ass every night...that's just interesting to me. I don't know if previous games in this series were in similar places, but if they are then I would be inclined to go back and check out some of the older games too. I just really like the mature themes of the game and the stupid humor of some characters; I found myself laughing at the dialogue more than once and it really did remind me of high school. Next time you hear me talk about Persona 3 will be when I review it. This could be a while because I have no idea how long the game is and don’t know how much free time I’ll have in the coming weeks.

...One last thing. Gus, the game is friggin' Awesome!!! :)

New Logo +

Well I wanted to say that I put up the new logo I worked on and that you will also find that the review scores have finally been set up the way I planned them originally (go and check them out to see the new score system). I also doubt that anyone who went to the Chicago AGI get-together visits the sausage, but I want to apologize for not being able to make it out...My grandpa was admitted to the ER late last night and he's still there and will be there for a minimum of 72hrs so I really wouldn't have been in the best state of mind for the night. I hope everyone there had a good time and if there's a next time here's to hoping I can make it.

-New review system is simple

...games score between 1-5 sausages, with 5 being Awesome and 1 being horrible...and on rare occasions *cough* Jumper *cough* some games will even get 0 sausages! That's right some games suck so much that they don't even deserve any sausage! I hate you Jumper.

Some Updates

Well there are a few things I plan on getting done in the near future...a few reviews among other things. I might not get around to everything because I have had two great days in gaming these past few days. Yesterday I finally got my Minibosses cds and today I found a copy of Persona 3! (I'll go into more detail on both of these in a post tomorrow) I have to say that Persona 3 from the few hours I've put into it so far that it's amazing! I am really loving so much about it and I think it will be a great game to hold me off until GTAIV gets here.

Anyways here is a list of what I hope to get done soon...

- MLB 2K8 (360) Review
- Rainbow Six Vegas 2 (360) Review
- Bru Krew Designs :P

...I don't know if I'll get all of that done, but I will try. Persona 3 is calling me and I'm so glad I have the game. Boy is it amazing!! You don't know what you're missing Gus!

Zombie Genocider: Is the sausage worth it?

Zombie Genocider: Defeat at least 53,594 zombies
Is it one of the most annoying achievements ever? Yes.
Is it worth it? Yes.

Anyone who has this achievement will likely be considered a whore, a real juicy, nasty whore. I recently went through the agony of running over zombies over and over and over. I hated it, but it was all worth it to me. The reason behind this is because you actually get something in-game for doing this. Have you ever wanted to beat down some zombies as Mega Man!? Well you can't do it in this game, but you can blow some heads off! Is that good enough for you? No...then you can go eat a sausage!

I just want to tell anyone who attempts this amazingly horrible feat that you will hate this game immediately after it's done. You will want to take the game and set it on fire!.... Right after that you will want to take a massive corn-filled dump all over it...and then once all that has had time to settle in; you will finally be able to clean it up and start playing once again, but now you will have the aid of the real Mega Buster. Now take that weapons of mass destruction and bust some zombie sausage!

*EDIT*

I HATE YOU Dead Rising! Why did you freeze on me during Infinity mode? huh...you are a dirty bastard and I truly hate you. You do know I can't save in this mode and thus would have to start from the beginning if I want to make a second attempt. What's that...you think it's funny...STOP LAUGHING! I hate you Dead Rising and I hope you burn in hell!!!

Gamestop.com Changing Things Up

Well for those of you who don't hate Gamestop/EB you'll be happy to learn that their website is undergoing to much needed changes. Some of the major changes are things like: The ability to get your EDGE card discount when purchasing used products online, The ability to pre-order online and pick up in-store, and a community aspect (such as forums and reviews...).

The list of new features is rather long so I'll just link it for those who want to read up on all that's in store for the updated site. I must say that I do not love GS or hate GS, but these additions are great and something that they have needed for a long time.

Gamestop.com New Features

*EDIT*

The site went live on March 30th so everything should be functioning as well. The link has been fixed (It didn't work after the site went like because they moved the page). I have a few issues with some new features that I will talk about at a later date...
