Had a Thought About Black Ops

Most of you probably know that the Call of Duty Black Ops is going to be 3D. 3D is the new thing for Sony's PlayStation console, so why is Black Ops 3D for Xbox and PC? Well I have a hunch. Microsoft has a lot of money and invest a lot of money in the Call of Duty franchise, just look at the huge deal they made just so that they could have DLC first. Anyway, I think that Microsoft (owners of both PC and Xbox) paid a large sum of money again so they could keep up with PlayStation. Spending money to keep up when they can't get new ideas for business. What do you all think? Tell me in the comments.

Just Thinking: Let's Change the World!

Awhile back in my Google Reader I found a new keyboard layout and loved it. It's called Dvorak and after reading all of the pros I don't understand why the world now days doesn't use it. Click on the Dvorak link above and see why it's so great. You may ask why I don't use it myself. Well, it's simple because I have a computer that was given to me by my school and that means that teachers use my computer and would get mad at me if I used something other than QWERTY. So pass the link on and let's try to change the world standard of QWERTY and go to the faster and less error prone Dvorak.

It's Been Awhile but I Have a Good Reason.

Hey guys, I know I haven't posted for a while and that's for mainly two reasons. the first being that I got a brand new hard drive for my PlayStation 3 making it 640 gigs and not 40 like I used to have. I was just catching up on some old games. The second reason is that out of nowhere, I got really sick. I mean, it happened within ten minutes. I was at Rosatti's then I went home to get the movie to return to Redbox and then my eyes started to itch and my face and chest burned. My nose would not stop running.

I am going to go off on a random tangent here so just bare with me. My brother says that the first rule of having a car is that you can't have to many napkins in your car. Well, I took his car to Walgreens when my attack happened and I remembered his rule and went for his napkins. To my surprise he only had four napkins. I went through those faster than; Well I went through them really fast. When I got home I felt awful, my face was pure white, my eyes completely blood shot and a runny nose. I went through a new roll of toilet paper and then some. It was bad.

Well on the topic of todays blog post.

On IMDb there is some "super" news if you will as we discover who will direct the new 'Superman'. On the PlayStation Blog there are some new games and a new artist spotlight for ModNation.

On IMdb they have given the public 20 names for us to follow in the next 20 years because they should be making headlines. It goes from Christopher Nolan (The Dark Knight) to Joseph Gordon-Levitt (Inception) (Left). So go ahead and take a look at the other 18 people and tell me who your favorite movie/actor/actress/writer/director is in the comments below.


Also, I will be posting about once a week from now on. This past week has been slow, so when new information gets in I'll post again.

What's going on the 28th of September 2010?

Well I'm glad you asked because resistance has some pics for us to look at while the PlayStation Blog has some ModNation madness, UNCHARTED 2 has some good news and some great games are going greatest hits and more. Though you may ask, "I thought this guy also went over movie stuff?" We also take a stop by the IMDb.


First up at Insomniac Games, a few pictures have been leaked by 1337Guyzorz2. There are a total of 18 photos, so go ahead and take a look for yourself.  From the pictures it looks like this game will take place in New York and St. Louis. New characters and new missions and a lot of dead Chimeran.

These pictures are awesome and really want make me want to play this game.

I been looking through the pictures and the graphics look amazing. The guns are big, the machines are big and the monsters are big. We are all still waiting for Sony and Insomniac feedback on the pics but the game looks great.

ModNation Racers is now $39.99. That is 300,000 tracks and 1.5 million user created content. I pre-ordered this game and am very happy with what I got. The drift mechanics are great the weapons system is excellent and gameplay pitch perfect. The only drawback is the load times, but really it's not aggravating and it gives you some time visit the restroom or finish a sammich. Oh! How could I forget, ModNation for PSP has a new price as well, $19.99 with 15,000 tracks to chose from. There are two videos on the PlayStation Blog but I'm giving you the first video.



I know you have been waiting for the UNCHARTED 2 news and here it is. Game of the Year comes out October 12th with over $35 in downloadable content or DLC for the literates. It comes with



We got 7 new games coming to PS Greatest Hits:

  2. Ratchet and Clank: A Crack in Time
  3. Motor Storm Pacific Rift
  4. Demon's Souls
  5. Call of Duty World at War
  6. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
  7. Tekken 6
I promised movie stuff. So let's get started with a brand new trailer that just came in today, "True Grit" take a look. The movie is about a young girl that recruits a US Marshal to track down the man that killed her father.






Sadly, Sally Menke Quentin Tarantino's long time editor died at the age of 56. Here is the link. Basically the article says that she was hiking in Griffeth Park and disappeared.

Further details have not been discovered yet like if was homicide or an accident. Only time will tell.

I Got a Little Bit of Bad News



Well I just wanted to start you all off with this video. Now that you are all ready for it and can't wait, I found out that this game won't be released for another 2 years. How sad, I was really looking forward to this one. The sad news.

On another note though, KB also known as Kevin Butler VP of all cool things, shared a link with a select few. I thought that this was quite cool and figured that I should share.

That's it for know and that is the happs that I'm readin.

What Happens to be New-September 27, 2010

Today we cover four games that haven't been released, Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, God of War: Ghost of Sparta, Fifa 11, Fallout New Vegas and EA attacks Activision?

I decided to go off and look around for what is coming and on ign.com I found the new Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood trailer. Brotherhood is scheduled to come out November 16th, some of you might recognize this day as the day LittleBig Planet 2 was supposed to come out  but was sadly pushed back until January 18th 2011. The trailer is below and also on the link above. Along with the link there is an article about the beta impressions.



I just received a tweet and was a little hooked when it said "Oh snap! @EA responds to Activision and claims Kotick's hubris is destroying Call of Duty." I was a little busy typing the above statements but soon I clicked on the link a urge you all to read it and see what the hub bub is about. Link Here

Fallout New Vegas has a commercial and I have brought it to you straight from 1up.com. Aside from the great music that this trailer has I find that this game has great potential. Watch for yourself!



Meanwhile on the PlayStation Blog we find that the God of War: Ghost of Sparta demo hits the PlayStation Store tomorrow. For those of you who haven't heard of the Six reasons to pre-order God of War: Ghost of Sparta here you go.

And before I go, come with me as I travel to Soccer. Is Fifa 11 better than 2010 World Cup? That's right I also have a video for the viewing masses. In this 2 page article the team at ign really goes all out on the pre-release review. You can also find the article here, so go ahead and read away.



Hope that this has satisfied, and until next time, that's the happs I'm readin.

My Previous Followers

To all of my previous followers to my previous blog I just wanted to let you know that that blog is dead. There were so many of you I couldn't keep track of the both of you and decided to start fresh and build a reputation. Just to let you all know I will not take up the reviewing of video games. Don't be sad though because of my super biased opinion isn't what people want to hear and I will leave reviews to sites like ign, G4, and others. I will tell you if I agree with the rating and will post links to the review. Like I stated before "super biased" you won't hear much at all about the Wii and even less about the Xbox.

Apart of my fresh start I will include the movies I'm watching along with the IMDB, Rotten Tomatoes, flixster and other site ratings. For those of you who follow the PlayStation Blog and have seen Sid Shuman's posts, I wanted to incorporate his "what I'm doing" box. I also have a few people that I follow on twitter and usually click on their links and I am going to be posting what I see with a little yada yada yada.

After looking over the preview for this blog I decided to take of the "Follow me on twitter button" and so I will find a way to give links about my twitter. Also, before I go I have dedicated a Facebook to to this blog.

You can find me on Twitter and Facebook
