A busy bee

Holy cow it's been nearly a month already. I'm not going to throw down the usual "Didn't have much to talk about" because frankly, it's been busy!

Firstly, reviews. I've knocked out a trio of reviews since my last blog: Rachet and Clank, Dragon Age, New Super Mario Bros Wii and shortly I hope to have one finished for The Saboteur so that alone has taken up a heck of a lot of time, but time well spent . SMB and Rachet and Clank have a lot in common with their legacy and sometimes I wonder if a four star review for NSMB is too lenient or too harsh. The game is a lot of fun and on multiplayer it can be a total blast, it also hits all the right nostalgia buttons and brings back in all the stuff you'd want from a 2d Mario games, but then there is its flaws. A new Mario game brings certain expectations, especially on the system that brought us Super Mario Galaxy which really brought the 3d games forward but NSMBwii feels like a step backwards from Super Mario World, at least to me. Perhaps it's wrong to judge a game on expectations, but is it's also wrong to review one just because the game has a long history? I've been going backwards and forwards on it for a while but four stars seems fair, but they could have achieved so much more.

One game I do have no doubts about is Dragon Age: Origins. For the longest time I believed KOTOR to perhaps be my favorite game of all time but I believe that DA:O has dethroned it, it really is that good. It has such a fantastic blend of of old style RPG with out feeling old in a bad way, it also tells such a fantastic story. Sure the game isn't for everyone and I'm sure the constant dialog will put off some players, in my opinion, those people are missing out.

There's a fair bit else to say but it's mostly to do with non game stuff but just getting through Dragon Age and writing the review was perhaps 60 hours of time and heck I could write for ages about it along, but I'd be too tempted to dip into spoiler territory.

I'll leave you for now, I've more PHP training and reviews to write over the next week and I'm hoping to play and perhaps review Zelda: Sprit Tracks and try out this Assisins Creed 2 that I'm hearing so much about. In the mean time be sure to check out Citizen Game, my reviews on GameSpot and my Twitter page @madelk (be sure to introduce yourself)

Stay Warm!

Level 31 Ippon!

Well looks like I'm at Level 31 also known as Ippon. I wonder if it has anything to do with the Pokemon Aipom. Don't ask me how I know that.

Hmm. I can't believe I'm posting a blog this soon. Well I need to register for one more class for next semester, next week is the last week of classes, and the week after are finals. December 17 is my last day before break. Then I have a nearly 3 week break from school. .

I wonder if anyone will comment on this blog now that I've posted it and I rarely post blogs nowadays?

Anyways, I won't be getting DBZ: Raging Blast because it's the same thing like the budokai and tenkaichi series. DBZ is over and it will not change. The game just repeat the storylines and the gameplay is practically similar in every game. So therefore, I won't be getting anymore DBZ games. Also, DBZ remastered DVD's was the worst thing ever. First they cut the screen and then they had to do the voiceovers again which sounded much worse than the original versions. If you guys watch any DBZ parodies on youtube, then you'll know that Toei made it so that DBZ is copyrighted on youtube the bastards . The parodies were very entertaining and it made me want to watch more since they were humorous as well XD.

I don't play videogames as much as I used to or watch dbz now cuz it's boring for the time being. School, gym, homework, and living on my own occupy most of my time.

I also won't be uploading any more videos of dbz because gamespot never bothered to fix it glitch and it's just not the same anymore.

To those who play Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, you have no lives. Get a life. I mean seriously. First Halo, then WoW, and now this. :O.

Well I don't know what else to talk about at the moment. So TTYL guys.

Approaching the End of the Year and the Semester

Hello everyone! Nice to see you all again!

Well, it's been a while since I've last checked in here. How have you all been?

Things for me have been going well. As you all know, it's already December and the end of the year is approaching quickly. This also means that the end of the first semester of my Grade 10 school year is fast approaching as well and things are getting quite busy! The teachers are certainly piling up the work done in class and the assignments that have to be finished so that they can get it in before the beginning of Christmas Break. Still, everything is very manageable.

I have to say though, I'm actually going to miss this semester. This has been far better than anything I went through in my freshman year of high school. Classes were far more interesting (probably because two of the teachers I have are new to our school and very young too) and things went from "OK" at the beginning of the year to "a lot of fun" towards the middle. I'm definitely going to miss English class the most since that's generally the course I find most interesting.

Of course, the end of the first semester also marks the time when we have to pick what we're taking for next year, which is honestly always a confusing and long process for me It mainly has to do with the fact that there are so many things that I want to take (one of the disadvantages of growing older is that you no longer study things from a wider array of fields) but I can only take 5 other things other than the mandatory stuff (cut that down to 4 since I'm taking French for sure). Well, that's life! In case you guys are interested, here's what I'm currently leaning towards:

Grade 11 Physics
Introduction to Computer Science
World History to the 16th Century (or maybe American History, I'm not sure)
Media Studies

Yeah, as you can see, I'm more an English/History person. I'm keeping my options open though and taking Physics and Computer Science in case I feel like going into something like software since video games have been a pretty large part of my life.

Anyways, enough about school I just felt like sharing since I truthfully don't have much else to talk about these days.

My gaming has honestly come to a standstill now. I have not played ANYTHING since early November when I finished The Witcher: Enhanced Edition (great game, by the way). With Christmas Break coming up on December 22nd, I definitely need to get that fixed. I'm thinking about getting something for the PC since my brother did some massive upgrading recently and I want to make good use of it. Dragon Age: Origins and Mass Effect are two games I'm considering since I'm a big RPG fan. The Sims 3 (and its new expansion) is also something I've really wanted to get. My good friend is a huge fan of the series and I've had a ton of fun with the past entries in the series as well, with the main difference between us being that her computer can't handle the game so buying this would certainly be beneficial to both of us.

Of course, if I scrounge up enough money over Christmas, then I might just scratch all of that and buy myself a PS3. A library of interesting games + a Blu-ray player definitely seems like a good investment to me. Regardless, I doubt I'll be stuck with this gaming drought for long.

Hmm, well, that's pretty much all I have to share for now. I'll see you all again sometime soon (or not?)!

Top 10 Part 13: Fighters

wow its been ages since I made my last top 10 list! (actually its been ages since I last blogged -_- ) Guess that PS2 and all the parties i've been having before and after graduation kind of did the trick huh? Well but enough of that, lately I've been playing fighting gams like CRAZY! and just realized that fighters is my favourite genre! I don't know I just love kicking so much @$$ and therefore decided to do a top 10 list of my favourite fighters from a bunch of franchises! OK here we go!

Guile (Street Fighter)

guile

Street Fighter isn't really my favourite fighting franchise however Guile makes the game Street Fighter II worth playing! Not only are his moves awesome but I also think he is a very balanced character (unlike all the other Haduken morons that spam those attacks to no end!) yep and because of that he desreves a spot on my list!

Baiken (Guilty Gear)

Baiken

Known as the last Japanese Samurai (ppfft Samurai, more like a hardcore ninja!), Baiken isn't exactly the hottest chick I have ever seen however when you can fight like a badass with so many hidden weapons used for deadly attacks, who needs looks? She is my best character in Guilty gear and what I love about her is her fighting stance, her combos and I also like it when she pulls a pipe out of her boobies!

Julia Chang (Tekken)

julia

My second best character in the Tekken series, I admit there really isn't anything unique about Julia when it comes to fighting, however seeing her reminds me of Seung-Mina from Soul Calibur and not only that but some moves are identical to! I still need to practice with her however her undeaniable passion to save nature kind of caught my intrest (since I studied environmental management) so yep She's cool.

Nightmare (Soul Calibur)

Nightmare

Well at first this guy wasn't really all THAT badass in Soul Calibur 2 however after they altered his fighting ****to a more brutal and fast version in Soul Calibur 3he became one of my top fighters! What i like about nightmare is not only that he is faster than Siegfriend but his brutal fighting ****and every single cool armor he wears on every installment makes me wanna chock some people! cuz he is THAT badass! heck sometimes I think Nightmare is a lot more brutal than Kratos himself! Thats right fanboys I SAID IT! Plus Soul Edge is a pretty awesome weapon!

Johnny (Giulty Gear)

Johnny

OK from the looks of him its pretty obviouse he is cool, come on boys, you KNOW you want to be as cool as this guy. Not only is his looks awesome but his quick draw sword ****is pretty sweet to! heck he is so cool he had the ballz to actually hit on Baiken! damn thats what I call a ladies man!

Link (Super Smash Bros)

Link

The Legendary Hero of nintendo, you know if it weren't for te first SSB for the N64 i would have never knew what Zelda Ocarina of time was! seriously because of that Link has been my number 1 fighter for SSB and he still kicks butt in SSB Brawl, I use Link so dedicatly that I refuse to acknowledge Young/Toon Link! Why clone Link nintendo WHY?!

Leona Heidern (The King of Fighters)

leona

Whats there to say about Leona? she is sexy and deadly! My type of girl and her gory moves (like basically thrusting her hand through people's chests and even plant grenades in them) just makes her even more awesome! man now am actually looking forward to going to civil service! (will explain that on my final blog end of august)

Seong-Mina (Soul Calibur)

seung-mina

A hot korean fighter who uses a mix of ling shen su and seung ku ****long sword, not only is her zanbatou my favourite close range weapon but her fighting ****is awesome and sweet (beats all those generic Kilik users I see online!) Seon-mina is my no. 1 fighter in Soul Calibur and because of her unique combat trait I end up owning a lot of people online! HAH and my friend told me she sucks! what a moron! yep seung-mina has been my favourite ever since SoulBlade and thats not gonna change when when I get Broken Destiny!

Ralf Jones (The King of Fighters)

Ralf

THIS GUY IS FREAKIN HARDCORE!! I LOOOOOOVE HIM! He is the definition of badass and his moves are insane! Like that machine gun punch combo and grabs and many things!! Although he is currently my second best fighter (Leona being my Best) it wont take long before I master him. (Oh and because they ruined him in KOF12 am not gonna get the game until they fix him!)

King (Tekken)

King

He is the almighty wrestler from Mexico! and there is a reason why he is called King! Because he is the coolest fighter to have ever existed in a video game and I'm proud that he is my no.1 fighter of all fighting games! just check out his moves, his muscles and even that awesome jaguar mask! heck because of his awesomeness I went to the gym just so that can pull off his awesome moves! (I think I can learn everything EXCEPT for the frankensteiner move, that move is impossible....) to me Armor King is a plain rip-off of King, yes I know Armor King existed long befre King but still, I can't help it!

Yep I know this list was uncalled for but I feared I might break someone's back if I didn't do this list! Well anyways thats that! am looking forward to Tekken 6 so I can own some people online! just like I do in Soul Calibur VI!

Hmm...Been a while

Hey everyone. It has been a while since I've been on GameSpot. I guess its because I don't really have a need to be on here. I'm usually on either deviantART or Gaia Online. Though I do enjoy checking GameFaQs for the daily polls. I would like to say that I am currently playing Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon. I really love the Fire Emblem series. One of the best game series out there. I also cannot wait until the Ace Attorney spin off comes out this winter. Well, I'm done here with this blog. Bye!

P.S. I will attempt to come back here on GameSpot at least once a week.

R.I.P. Michael Jackson ( ;..-(/ Whatz ur fave mj songz

YES I KNOW IM KINDA LATE MAKIN DIS but I felt the need that i had 2. Unfortunately as u all know, da kid himself, king of pop, greatest dancer/coreographer of all time, yada yada, has left us at the age of 50 Michael Jackson in my opinion waz definately da greatest of all time. I gotta say, MTV, BET, N VH1 r some of da greatest networks of all time. W/out them, I would have never disovered how great this man really waz. U know, he made some of da best songz ever. No only did they make my mom and, embarrissingly, my dad , dance the thriller in front of the tv, but he also warmed da hearts of America by singing songs like Man in the Mirror and We are the World. He waz no doubt 2 me a hero and a phenomenal, inspiring star....DA KING HIMSELF! LOVE YA KID!

So here r my fave MJ songz. WHAT R URS?

THE WAY U MAKE ME FEEL (Favorite) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sEU9Q8NlOiY

ROCK WITH YOU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7hK3Y1Ehv9c&feature=channel

YOU ARE NOT ALONE (mom's fave) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o8rYl6K2STc&feature=channel

REMEMBER THE TIME http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nDxsM5jLNxM&feature=channel_page

MAN IN THE MIRROR http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHoDsIPBaMQ&feature=related

sorrry but thriller is #6!! lol O yeah... IF U DONT KNOW ANY OF DA SONGZ WATCH THEM. I PROMUISE U WILL LIKE 1 OF THEM. IF NOT... seriously... tHANX 4 READING THIS. ITS MEANT A LOT

R.I.P. also.. Billie Mays (from the cool oxi clean n other stuff commercials) n Farrah Faucet (from the old charlie angels tv show)
