It’s been only two days into E3 and I can’t help myself but to speak out on a few things. The whole show has been quite impressive so far. There have been some disappointments but I’ll get to that in a moment.
There has been so many new games announced, that I won’t be able to get to it today, but wow. Sure does have me quite stoked.
-Microsoft conference was kinda shitty. And that upsets me, because I love the Xbox. But they couldn’t stop ramming the damn Kinect into everyone’s throats. Like, Damn, Microsoft! Shut up about that stupid ass thing and just show us some games. I’m NOT (and neither is anyone who actually bought that dumb thing) going to play Ghost Recon without a controller. So stop shoving it in our faces.
On another note, MINECRAFT!! For the XBOX!!! That made me excited as hell. But then they tried to plug in the Kinect AGAIN saying you can play Minecraft on it. ಠ_ಠ
Gears of War 3-GAY! Halo 1 remake-AWESOME! Halo 4…umm…show something? And the rest was Kinect. But the new Tomb Raider is going to make people crap their pants. It looks incredible.
-Sony Conference was really really well put together. They only spoke about the Move as a, “Guess what? you can play this game on the Move. Neat huh?” Not shoving it down anyone’s throats. And their game lineup looks great. Resistance 3…the coolest box art ever! If someone can find me a Resistance 3 T-Shirt I will love you forever.
Now, the PlayStation Vita…I think it’s pretty cool…but not OMG MUST HAVE cool. It’s still the retarded step-chile of the Game Boy, but it looks a little innovative. I can possibly see myself buying one if there was a price drop and I happen to have some spare cash on me.
-Nintendo Conference was OMG!!! All I can say is Nintendo has won E3 this year. If there were prizes, Nintendo has got it. This WiiU thing looks very very cool. I am very impressed. Miyamoto came out throwing Legend of Zelda crap EVERYWHERE and making every fanboy/girl collectively jizz their pants.
The WiiU is something I can see myself camping outside a store to buy it. At first I was like “WTF IS THIS” then I saw everything it can do. Yes, it does EVERYTHING! It probably cooks you food too. Just wait for the oven peripheral to come out and there you go.
I’ll get back to a lot more of this E3 thing a little later. I just wanna soak in the awesome that is happening around me.
Please re-blog if you enjoy my writings and I’ll love you for eternity.

Duke Nukem Forever is Finished (Finally)
After 15 years, Duke Nukem Forever is finally done. 2K Games and Gearbox Software confirmed this by saying the game has gone gold.
“Duke Nukem Forever and its journey to store shelves is legendary. It’s an epic tale of four game development studios that banded together and did the unthinkable and shipped the unshippable. When you play this game you will be reminded of that epic journey at every turn and in every small detail of the game.” —George Broussard, 3D Realms Creative Director
Duke Nukem Forever is currently scheduled to launch June 10 internationally and June 14 in North America on the Xbox 360, PS3, and on PC.
“Duke Nukem Forever is the game that was once thought to be unshipppable, and yet here we are, on the precipice of history. Today marks an amazing day in the annals of gaming lore, the day where the legend of Duke Nukem Forever is finally complete and it takes that final step towards becoming a reality.” —Christoph Hartmann, 2K President
Looks like it’s really happening, guys.

Games That I Can’t Bring Myself To Finish
Oh my God, man! Why does this game have to be so freakin BAD?! I’m not talking the story, I’m talking the actual game. The story started to suck me in and kept my interest quite well…until I got to the action parts and had to deal with my team dying within 3 seconds of guns being fired. Useless game. Maybe one day I’ll bring myself to beating it.
I hate you Dead Space…I hate you! Why did this game start off so good, and scary…but then instantly it brought me to a puzzle where I had to freeze time and open some thing by turning another thing and I only had 3 seconds to do it. I attempted it, like, 12 times. Failed. And returned to Game Stop. Same Day. Screw that puzzle.
I don’t know why I didn’t finish it. It was pretty fun, but weird. My kinda thing. But something about that insane storyline had me confused and thinking I was going to hell for playing it. I’m not sure. Maybe I’ll give it another try sometime.
Never finished this one because…oh…I dunno….IT SUCKS! Why do I wanna play “Follow the yellow light to your next path and kill stuff: The Game!” I wanted to explore, but it would be impossible to navigate your way through that dumb world. And there was no challenge. Returned same day also.
Posted on this before, but still. Why is this so highly praised? It’s like nobody looked at the crap this game actually is. It’s all action and no story. They throw you at this world and you gotta kill bad guys because they look different from us…or something. See? It still never explained it. And thats why I can’t bring myself to finishing it. Maybe one day

Pirates Movie Review
Look what we have here, another Pirates of the Caribbean movie…who really wanted another one? On Stranger Tides is the next installment to the franchise that just needs to end. Now don’t get me wrong, I loved the first one. It was a great popcorn movie that was lots of fun. And the second one was pretty good, there were moments that had me scratching my head but still overall fun movie. But the third one is where the franchise can never be redeemed. It took everything you liked from the Pirates movies and crushed it.
On Stranger Tides on the other hand, was only pretty decent. And that’s being generous. Johnny Depp returns as Jack Sparrow and Geoffrey Rush returns as Barbossa as they search out the famed Fountain of Youth. But sadly…nothing really happens in this movie. Ian McShane plays Blackbeard the pirate and nothing really happens the whole time. You would think, “Oh Blackbeard, I bet he is ruthless and crazy”. But no, he doesn’t really do anything the whole time.
There was a lot of times I found myself unable to hear what characters were saying to each other over the loud music always in the background and the fact their accents were so thick. And it would always happen when they are revealing a plot point but the pirate music would kick in and you’d be like, “what did he just say?” and the Direction of the movie was just boring. The only really cool thing Jack Sparrow does is swing on a chandelier and eat a pastry.
The only credible part of the movie? The mermaids. Holy crap, the mermaids were awesome. Why can’t we see that? The movie should just be called Pirates of the Caribbean: The Mermaids are Awesome. If they are to make another crappy Pirates movie they should go on a search for the “Hidden Mermaid Necklace of Doom” where it gives you the power to sing to the heavens or something. Then they have to fight the mermaids the whole movie.
But I digress…this movie had a few fun parts, as Jack Sparrow is always a pretty fun character. But they didn’t do anything important or anything too fun. And the supporting characters were boring, except Barbossa…he was pretty cool. Also, lots of pointless stuff going on that could have been cut in the editing room.
4/10. Don’t go unless you have kids/girlfriend/wife that wanna see it really really bad.
