AGAIN?!?

 From the desk of the Pissed off Jade Fox:

...

I cant believe Im doing this again... Seriously. Youd think I would have better things to get pissed off about then comercials. But once again here I am with another rant... About a comercial.

RANT TIME 2

Ok, so once again I was watching videos on That guy with the Glasses ( Link here: CLICK ME!!!! I love them)

 and Blip now has commercials at the beginning, middle and END of each video.

 *Sigh*

 Ok, I can deal with that, seeing as it is free content.

Now the ad that has lead me here is for Gamestop (who I also love) and starts by showing a guy on his couch, with cheetos and milk on a stand next to him. He's looking at his game and sees something that, I guess, pleases him? Its a soccer game theyre promoting and I know dick about soccer, so Im guessing that its some good player or something.

But the man is over joyed, and in his glee does a full body... I guess the only word for it is spasm, in which he kicks over the stand, spilling cheetos and milk everywhere. They throw in their gobbledygook about the promotion, and then it cuts back to the guy just sitting there stunned about the player he saw.

Is this man retarded?

Don't get me wrong... Ive been excited before. I've even jumped up and do a little dance some time. (example) And yes, I have made a mess before. But my reaction afterwords isnt to sit and stare like an idiot at whatever made me happy. Its normally "Oh shit" and then frantecly running around to clean up my mess.

I know that, for comerciles, you should extend your suspension of disbelief, but after seeing it again, and again, and AGAIN, I get pissed at this man every time. Maybe Im the only one... Maybe Im reading too much into it...


But what if Im right?

Here's to "if"

Game review.


Like I said in my first blog, I am not a good game reviewer. I try though, so I think I get effort points. ^_^

So today I'm going to talk about a game that I love, even though it made me want to break my PS3.

Shadow of the Colossus.

For those of you who haven't played this game here is a quick summery. You are a daring young man who brings the love of his life (who is very much dead) to a mystic land to make a deal with an entrapped demon. The demon agrees to resurrect her, but you have to kill the sixteen giant monsters that roam the land. You, being in love, agree to this, and ride off on your loyal horse to go kill these beasts.


The majority of the game you spend riding across the empty landscape, holding your sword aloft so the light reflect off it and points you to your next Colossus. The rest of the game is the fight between the huge monsters, switching between frantic combat, and puzzle platforming as you crawl across the colossus like a flea. And that's it. You ride your horse, then fight a monster. Ride your horse, then fight a monster.

AND ITS FUCKING AMAZING!

I'm not sure if I am the minority on this, but I love the boss fights in games. It's my favorite part of the game. Shadow is ALL BOSS FIGHTS! Each Colossus is different and unique. The all have some similarity to real creatures, from birds, to bulls, to snakes. Each one looks like its been sleeping for years, and are waking up because you are there. The puzzles get harder, as do the monsters, but to a level that you can handle.

Now the reason I almost broke my PS3. THE FUCKING CAMERA! I swear, the only reason I ever died in that game is because the camera would not move the way I wanted. The final Colossus being a cacophony of fucks as I couldn't see what the hell I was doing. Just ask my aunt, and her two young children.


So all in all its a great game and I suggest you play it. Shadow of the Colossus is available on PS2 and the HD collection is on PS3. Pick it up. You wont be disappointed.

Here's to gaming.

So for D today I think ill talk about Doug Walker, also know as The Nostalgia Critic.

Now a little back story here: I hadn't heard of Doug Walker, or the Nostalgia Critic until last year. I had seen the name mentioned a couple of times by other critics and reviewers, but I had never looked into him.

A phrase from one of his videos was cut into an AMV that I was watching, and I decided to follow up by watching a review he did. And, HOLY CRAP, I loved it. Doug takes older movies, from the 80s and 90s and reviews them, seeing if they hold up in this day, and age.

I find that his reviews are fairly accurate, and funny as hell. I have never laughed so hard in my entire life. They make me look back at my childhood and remember the things I loved as a child. And even if he totally trashes the things I loved (or still love) I still look back with fond memories, and joy.

Doug, Mr. Walker, please keep up the good work. I enjoy every thing you do.

What the hell happened to Sonic the Hedgehog?

This guy was on top of the world, rivaling Mario... MARIO! Sonic was way more awesome then Mario (This is the opinion section of my rant.) he had cooler power ups, a way more awesome design, and he was FAST! Mario could only jog at a steady pace. Sonic went from 0 to 60 in only a few seconds. WAY COOLER THEN A STUPID FAT-ASS!

But I ask again, what happened? Over the years Mario has been getting bigger and bigger, while Sonic has just been making ends meet. How can Mario remake the same fucking game over, and over, and over, BUT Sonic does it and gets Crucified. Sonic tries something new... and gets slaughtered. Sonic follows that fat fucks example, and gets called a cheap rip off.

They both even had failed cartoons. Who else here remembers The Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog, and The Super Mario Brothers Super Show... THEY BOTH SUCKED ASS! But Sonic actually came back with a GREAT cartoon, Sonic SAT AM. and is still making some good cartoons, like Sonic X.

I want to see a world where Sonic and Mario switch places. Sonic could be making Sonic Galaxy 2, while Mario is making Super Mario and the Black Knight. The question not being, would Sonic do better, no no no... I want to see if I would still like Sonic, or if Id be in Mario's camp.




Here's to wondering.

See ya around.
