Nintedo 3ds: I have not seen it in person, finally Nintendo is releasing a system as powerful as the psp that is also ancient now. The 3d with out glasses sounds lame though from reports I have read you have to hold the unit just right to get the effect, and the 3d does not work from all viewing angles. LAME!!!!! A gimmick. Seriously though, metal gear looks ok, but more nintendo shovelware, their quality is crappy since the wii and gamecube. More lame cutesy crap in 3d. NOOOOOOOOO. E3 everyone said nintendo won for announcing a bunch of rehashes, more zelda and kid icarus, who cares man. The wii is an utter failure with horrid games. A system no one buys games for. 3rd parties got fucked on this console cause only nintedo shit sells. I hope nintendo goes down in flames. I cant believe nintedo puts out old tech over and over again and gets away with it, its under powered just like all their shit, just like apple. So lame.

Ok, it’s now the red dot of death. Now not only can your system red dot for good, but now it’s prone to overheat in the middle of your games, and shuts off right in the middle of a level and you lose progress in your game. Oh boy, just what I want, So the old xbox 360′s have a 70% failure rate or higher, and now the new ones over heat an shut off in the middle of your games. They need to trash this piece of shit, and microsoft should never make or design a console ever again as long as they are in business. They make such crap. Windows 7 has really made me not hate them as much, before i hated all their os’s as well, atleast now i like windows 7. So that is a big plus and I am into windows gaming, so with that, no interest in the 3-shitty console that breaks, nickle and dimes you, scratches your cds, and charges you to play online, even the pc doesnt do that. DEATH TO XBOX 360 STILL. Kinekt looks so lame as well, just wii rip off, shovelware for grandpa and ma, so lame. All the games they have shown, and the e3 demonstration has shown this to be a dud, and an expensive one at 150 as well.

I was not impressed when I first heard about ps3 3d gaming, thought it was going to be a gimmick. After seeing it and playing mororstorm in person, wow, i was blown away. Sure the frame rate takes a little hit, but man, this is so wicked. Saw it on a samsung 3d tv with the glasses. What sucks is, there is still some ghosting, and with the sony 3d displays i hear there is flickering. So until they iron out these problems, and they get the price of the tvs down to the affordable range, this will be a big deal, but not right now. The playstation move, well it looks lame over all, a glowing ball on the tip, its like an old vibrator or something. Socom does look kind of kool with it, but i know i wont play that game with the move. No way. I am really over the wii, so the games that are wii like do nothing for me, the graphics are a little better, but over all, boring. I will get it only because I already have a playstation eye, and it will only be 50 bucks. So at least that is cool. I was blown away by the twisted metal announcement, but man that is so far away. I don’t care about grand turismo, Killzone 3 looks like a rent. I was not impressed with the games of e3 for ps3. The only game i want to even buy for the ps3 in the next year is socom 4, nothing else really. That is so sad, sure fall out, and dead space, but i will buy that on the pc instead. Both sony and microsoft look really boring for this next year. Over all e3 failed, nothing new really, portal for ps3, a game that takes no time to beat and is short, oh boy. I’m just sick of the consoles honestly.Sony failed e3 just like the other two, there is nothing in the next year that i am excited to play but socom. LAME!!!!!! Also, Playstation plus, WTF. No cross voice chat? LAME. So sony didn’t take away anything for us, but now they want us to shell out 50 bucks a year for qore, and some free games we only get as long as we keep the subscription active. First month, its like oh these games didnt sell well, lets re put them out there. Shit i have already played, or crap that i would never want to play, playstation plus is for shovelware. Don’t bother with it until they start putting out good free shit for us users. The os and automatic game updating thing is cool, but that should be for everyone, not ps plus. LAME!

I jumped ship to windows 7. Glad I did, now i can finally play mass effect. More than anything it is APB, Fallout vegas, and deadspace 2 that made me want to go pc gaming again. Kick ass video card and quad core processor. Diablo comes soon as well. So PC gaming is probably going to dominate my gaming future for the next year until twisted metal comes out, and of course i will try out Socom 4. Pcs are still a massive pain in the ass, but much better with windows 7 I must admit. Stay tuned, on the VAC site will give a gear up date and a big long why i jumped off apple’s ship speech. As a final note, this years E3 Sucked. NO PSP2, WHERE ARE THE GREAT GAMES? Thats all for now.


I am surprised that nintendo didn’t get buried when the XBox Playstation wars first started and Sega went under. The only thing that saved their ass was their focus on young kids games and the hundredth randition of Mario. I aso agree that Apple does suck! That’s why I bought a Sansa Clip instead of an ipod. It takes forever for itunes to sync up and half the time it doesn’t work right. with the sansa I just plug it in and drag and drop the files I want into the folder. About 6 months ago I had a custom computer built with a 3.2 GHZ Quad Core AMD Phenom processor with 8 gigs of Ram. Windows 7 Professional runs like a breeze! In under a minute of pressing the power button, I am all loaded up and on the internet. I can run multiple applications while listening to music and I don’t get so much as a glitch or hesitation in loading. By the way, really looking forward to the new material. Everything you make is incredible. TAOBA was phenominal and I wish people were more open to it compared to the old sound. I will miss the new guitar sound but I am sure i will love the new sound with the vintage gear. Do what you feel and fuck what people say! As the saying goes “you can’t satisfy everyone” so just satisfy yourself. Best of wishes and good luck with the new album.
Your long term fan and friend,
