Transformers: The Review
posted by
Fuzunga
Wow. Transformers must be the most expensive movie ever made. It has mind-bogging special effects (that's right, I said mind bogging), scrumtrulescent action sequences, and giant transforming robots! Seriously, they must have spent at least $42 million on random props to blow up! But really, this is the movie to see this summer. Transformers has it all. Plus, it was cool how they modernized the series instead of keeping it stuck in the neon-shirted 80s. I just wish they would make a TV series this cool! The robots are totally kick ass!
Just because Transformers has breakneck action sequences (seriously, your neck will spontaneously snap while you watch the movie) that doesn't mean there's no room for character development. I never thought I could care so much about a robot. There's this one scene with Bumblebee where... ok, I'm not going to spoil it if you haven't it yet, but let's just say that it moved me to tears. I found myself bawling and screaming "WHY!?". They I realized Bumblebee was just a robot and I slapped myself in the face. Ok, so maybe none of that really happened, but you really do start to get attached to the little guy. I just wish the main character wasn't named Whitwicky...
Overall, this movie rocked! The special effects were incredible, the action intense, and the sex scene... don't even get me started! That was some hot bot-on-bot action. Sorry. I'm done fooling around. Seriously. I mean it this time. Oh, and Optimus dies at the end. Oops...probably shouldn't have spoiled that for you.* Oh, well!
Transformers is the movie to see this summer and if you haven't already, go see it right away! You can thank me later. Oh, and here's a little known fact for you: Peter Cullen, the original voice of Optimus on the 80s cartoon show, voiced Optimus in the movie. Just a little nugget to get your brain going there... because you're IQ probably just dropped about 20 points from reading this...
*Nah, I'm just messing with you again! You really think I would spoil the ending? Everyone knows the Autobots always win in the end. Or do they?

And now for something nobody expected....

It seems that Metal Gear Solid 4 will remain a PS3 exclusive and will ship in early 2008. This would be the first sensible decision Sony has made since the release of the PS3... that is until Microsoft announces that a special edition of the game will be released for the 360. Hey, it's bound to happen isn't it?

Oblivion: Game of the Year Edition Announced

The Oblivion: Game of the Year Edition was announced today. It will include all of the downloadable content released so far on one disk. Players who already own Oblivion, but have not purchased downloadable content can continue their previously saved game when they boot up the Oblivion compilation disk. It will be released in September for 360, PS3, and PC.
PS3 price drop... sort of
posted by
Fuzunga
Sony announced this morning that they're lowering the price of their 60 GB PS3 (now the only one available in North America since Sony discontinued the 20 GB model) $100 to the retail price of $499. Sony also announced an 80 gig PS3 that would be bundled with Motostorm and retail for $599. Sort of defeats the purpose of the price drop doesn't it? So what they've done is basically upgraded the hard drive size of both old models by 20 GBs. That's still twice as small as the Xbox 360 Elite hard drive.
The new pricing will be effective immediately. Both systems are identical except for storage space.

Screw Nintendo handhelds

I remember when i got my first gameboy. It was a turqoise gameboy color and my grandma had gotten it for me for Christmas. Then later when the game boy advance came out i got it to. On both these systems my first two games where pokemon blue and yellow (for gameboy color); silver and crystal (for gameboy advanced)
Then i got pissed
I realized than in order to play my beloved pokemon games i would have to upgrade my gameboy almost every year! At least gaming consles last for about four years, but handhelds your lucky if they last half a year! And then once they move on to the newest gameboy ur stuck with playing my little horny, strawberry shortcakes fruitylicious party games, and sluty 10 year old bratz games where puberiscent pre-teens attpempt to get guys attentions by showing off their flat undeveloped bodies making them likely targets for child molesters and rapist (oh boy!).
However the real reason i came here was to praise what might what might be the greatest download in the histroy of the internet.
ROMS
ROMS (Read-Only Memory programs) are free downloadable gba games that have been made available for the computer. I garuntee you that you can find any game that was ever made on a gba online and download it. However these ROMS will only work with a gba program which really isn't a problem since there are so many of them . The one i recomend is http://vba.ngemu.com/.
Also need a site for ROMS? http://gba-rom-news.org/
