GAMES

So was the 3DS worth the purchase?
Um....I can't recommend running out & buying one just yet.

I was pretty much underwhelmed by the launch titles. Slim pickin's if you ask me.

The title I was really interested in trying, Steel Diver, got some bad reviews so I figure I could wait awhile before giving it a shot.

There are some cool titles dropping in the near future ahem...Kid Icarus, Resident Evil...

I hate to admit this but I've never actually beat Ocarina of Time so I was going to give it a go on the 3DS but Miko loaned me the Gamecube bonus disc version with the Master Quest included on it sooooo, it looks like I'll be saving some coin there.

I was planning on waiting for other titles to drop before picking up a 3DS but after reviewing the monthly budget & after realizing there was an extra paycheck for the month of April I decided to help out Wonton & take his extra 3DS off his hands today.

Now that I had a 3DS I had to at least get A game to play.

Now SSFIV is a good game & all but it's just I wanted something new, a change of pace if you will, from my recent gaming activity but when it came down to it there just wasn't anything else I was willing to spend my hard earned coin on today other than Ridge Racer. Sigh...

On payday I may pick up Ghost Recon & PES 2011 but other than that I can't think of anything else that's out right now for the 3DS I'd want to play, hell I may just skip those two altogether to tell you the truth.

I've got a wicked backlog of triple A titles I still need to get through.

All said, just wait a few months if you're considering the purchase. There really isn't much to write home about.

MORTAL KOMBAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Must buy.

Will I spend the coin for the fightstick ultimate whatever edition?
Hmmmm....

Work sucks.

Japan Nite 2011

I love Japan Nite I try to go every year. I hate the fact that the show seems to always be on some weird night of the week ahem...a weekday!

This year it was on a SUNDAY!

FUCK!

I have to get up at an ungodly hour for work & the venue is a 45 minute drive from my house.

I almost didn't go but a buddy of mine already bought me a ticket so I was kinda obligated.

Here's a breakdown of the events:

6:30pm -Leave my house

7:30pm -Get to The Independent

7:30 - 8:15 - drive around San Francisco looking for a parking spot

8:30pm -walk through the front doors of The Independent

I had already missed the opening band but came in just in time to see Hystoic Vein play their set.

I liked them very much, the lead singer was kinda yummers.

I stayed for Zukunasisters' set & had a beer, by that time it was 10:30pm & I decided I better go.

I stayed to see the new lineup of Lolita No.18 play a song then trekked my ass 4 blocks to my car & drove 45 minutes home.

Ugh....

***************************

Tsunami

I have friends in Tokyo & as my friend Yumiko likes to tell me "Tokyo is your 2nd hometown".

I sure like to think of it that way.
My close friends & family know that I absolutely love Tokyo.

When I heard about the Tsunami & the earthquake my heart sank, thankfully Tokyo escaped relatively unscathed by the tragedy.

I confirmed with all of my friends in Tokyo that they were ok.

My friends & family in Guam & Hawaii gave me the thumbs up too.

Although none of my peeps were directly affected my heart was aching for the victims.

I spent the entire weekend of the tragedy streaming news from Japan & just watched awestruck.

I didn't feel right doing anything fun, playing video games, reading manga -all of it was out the door for that weekend.

I wish there was something more I could do but I think the best thing anyone that give's a damn can do right now is donate, Japan has well qualified people in the trenches working. I think the best thing we can do is just donate $ & give them the resources they need to continue to do their job.

Big ups to Good Life, I swooped up their benefit tee, & also Japan Nite for donating the proceeds from the show to the Red Cross.

*********************

I'm exhausted people, gonna bounce like a bad check & try my hand at some Ridge Racer 3D.

I was thinking about a 3DS. Never had one of the portables. I'm not much of a gamer tho, so it might end up just collecting dust. Wait a bit is advice I've heard around tho, yeah.

Glad to hear all you friends and family are doin' alright.

What's good Solo!??!

You know I've spent the past couple days getting familiar with the 3DS & I am diggin' it.

I took it with me to Wondercon & got my first street pass notifications, I met 40 peeps at the convention via street pass & their Miis are now hanging out on my 3DS, it's hilarious!

I'll bet gamestop has a ton of the launch titles for sale used within the next couple weeks for a bit cheaper than retail.

It will play regular DS games too though so that's cool, I can try out Okamiden!

Sounds cool. Some of the street pass features I've seen looks pretty interesting too.
