"The stars do not determine our destiny. That is our responsibility." - Rose (Street Fighter series)

Happy belated holidays everyone! I'm back again for now, forging updates at the speed of light before the "Bell of Doom" rings again... BEFORE getting started, I would like to dedicate this month of Feburuary to my top waifu, Rose.. Why? cause guys like me always give attention to their waifus during this oh so lovely month... yeesh..The past few months, including the new year, have just been going by like a breeze (thanks alot to my recent job schedule ><). More hours, more mula, more stress, and alot of change lately (<-im not even joking about this part). Haha is there a bright side to it all? WELP! I do plan on going to more cons this year (maybe even around the eastern coast?), as well as using this golden opportunity to... save.... er... *coughcoughbuymorejunkcoughcoughcough*... wait, what? confused

Forgot where I was going here with this.. I suppose it's time to do this step by step, eh? haven't done this in months -fallsover-.

What Kind of junk?:

Glad you asked! Ever had those times when you make up a list of crap to buy and then you TOTALLY forget or set your mind upon something else by the time you do have money? welp! NOT this time, bro cool

. Other than that 1TB HD I keep forgetting about.. Anyways! With the PS4 coming out sometime in the far future, I've decided to lay off the $200 worth of gamestop shopping sprees and move on over to something abit more...

Expensive...? Um... Sure, why not?! I kind of needed a new camera anyways.. I'll always cherish the photos that have come from the Canon Powershot A530 (The photo right above is probably the last photo i'll be taking with it, for now), but it's about time to LEVEL UP THE HOLY SH*& out of this camera and turn it into a Canon EOS Rebel XS! I did manage to snag this puppy up from eBay sometime last month but had to put this on hold since the seller I won this exact camera from kinda backed out and cancelled the auction (I honestly thought $120 was a good deal for it..). Ah well... just ended up paying for a brand new one, along with a zooming lens which both costed an arm and a leg. I somewhat like the idea of being able to ACTUALLY equip different kinds of lenses and add-ons to this, I certain hope to learn more and more about this camera for years to come.. Results you say? well... uhh... here we are:

^Had to edit the lighting with Gimp... goes to show that I've still got a ways to go before I take this thing to any kind of public event *cough* (Dont forget, a new Regular Show on Monday night)

OMG AND COMICS! LOTS AND LOTS OF COMICS! Following the newer Deadpool series (Can't wait until issue #5! Those dead presidents are going DOWN... again), Street Fighter (Udon) series, DARKSTALKERS (finally found issue #1 after all these months), and.... AND... MAH LITTLE PONY!!! HEY! I know what we're all thinking here... But the MLP comic series is actually as funny as... well.. the Funnies portion of your Sunday News Paper! ESPECIALLY when you dub everything yourself and point out hilarious movie/video game references. Ahaaa! Oh that Rarity... you'll never cease to to make me laugh out lound.. Ahhh the joys of being a "brony" \(´д｀)/.

Speaking of Ponies... Fluttershy seems to be worried about Twilight. How's about you click above and help out stunned

Also forgot to mention the 3DS I got a while ago. Decided to check out Code of Princess since playing Pkmn White 2 has me insane enough to bash my head against my desk until Pokemon x & y release (OMG FINALLY! ANOTHER 3D POKEMON HANDHELD GAME TO LOOK FORWARD TO!!). Being honest tho, i'm abit glad this game was made for 3DS! It makes me miss Guilty Gear and seeing Solange's boobs on a bigger screen would probably overkill my young, innocent, street fighter infested mind... must... punch them... er grab them.... I mean... yeah, probably going to just pick up a friendly Mario game when I go to Game Stop next time. I really owe it to him since I picked Hoes over (Mario) Bros... Heh heh heh.. HA, ok.
-sigh- Trust me though, I think I've LOST more things than what I've gained this year. Sadly, im sure you all have noticed our poor internet dying day by day.. Youtube being over run with copyright infringements, Facebook stretches it's envy filled tentacles across the land like a stereotypical Hentai Game monster, and messengers just being flushed down the toilet, and stickam has officially died. I never really cared, these are the kind of things you dont expect to happen until wayyyy into the future... But what's this?! me and my bit*&$ ass posse no longer have an e-place to hang out at anymore. Never figured Yahoo would lose enough balls to kill their Chat Room feature (I sort of expected this kind of thing to come from AOL Instant Messenger *cough*).. I fear this is only the start for most messengers! I hear MSN will soon be eaten by Skype? What's next?! Skype being bought out by Facebook?? AIM totally going out of commission?! Instagram for becoming a future social network? More historical portions of our Internet being stripped away and updated.. Ha.. I kid.. but seriously though, shoutouts to my old (table flipping) Yahoo buddies... Especially you, Killa... you lack of pie having son of a toadstool.
R.I.P. Yahoo Chatrooms.. You shall be missed.

(*≧ω≦)ﾉ ₳₦î₥ع:

So... Other than catching up with Pokemon Black & White Rival Destinies, One Piece has finally gotten interesting (say whaaaat?! confused

)... ONE PIECE has finally gotten interesting (SAY WHAAAT?! wtf

)... ALRIGHT, One Piece has gotten more interesting since that time jump from before. I walked into Barns & Noble the other day to see One Piece on the cover of Otaku USA magazine... WTF, now folks notice it on and off.. Still continuing to watch the anime series, Navy Smoker is about to duke it out with Trafalgar Law, like HOLY sh%#, EXPEDITION MATCH UP IN THIS MOTHER! buuuuuuut wtf, the episode (#586, not joking) has been delayed this week -sigh-. ANOTHER long lifeless weekend until next Saturday. Will Trafalgar Law drop an entire Navy ship upon Smoker and his soldiers? Will Nami and the others find a way out if their new "babysitting" job? Will Luffy and the others continue to play Battleship for the next 5 episodes (I hope they dont sink)? WILL THAT SAMURAI TORSO EVER LEAVE BROOKE ALONE (Is it just me? Or am I the only one who SERIOUSLY dislikes Brooke's pink pants? UGH) Till then, no spoilers... *coughcough* please?

The Cat Returns

Tales from Earthsea

YESSSSSSSsssssssssss been trying to watch more Ghibli films that I surprisingly haven't seen before (I should be ashamed of myself \(´ن£à)/...). Better late than never, right?? I would post links but most file sites that host/stream these movies are either expired/dead or removed due to copyright infringements. Both were such amazing tales, I'll probably end up remembering "The Cat Returns" out of most since I've always pondered about living life as a cat... Or better yet... personified cats! I wish someone could just "Chrono Trigger" our timeline (kudos if you get the reference...) so we could all just go Bloody Roar on each other all day/erryday. -sigh- a man could only dream...

ALSO had a chance to watch Chapter 2 of the Berserk OVA/Movie (GREAT telling for this portion of the anime, the CGI scenes are still abit fresh though), Yokai Monsters (Yes, I know... It ISNT an anime, but damn! You see these demons all the time in animes but they never really have a story of their own), and Shin Chan movie 11 (How many movies does this series have?!?! wtf

(ΘεΘ،ٌ) K.. enough animu for today.

HYYUUUUUUUUUUUUUOOO!!!

Gaming:

As mentioned before, I've been paying more attention to handheld games (via 3DS and Iphone 4 -sigh- stfu) since they're the only things on the go I COULD play during my busy work schedule.

Code of Princess has been quite addicting! Why? I suppose it's the Guilty Gear feeling that brings me back for more. SURE, Guilty Gear was a fighter but the series also had a few other modes other than Arcade Mode and Vs Mode ALL DAY LONG. Years ago, I borrowed Guilty Gear Isuka from a friend for Playstion 2 (I COULD be wrong bummed

). Anywhore, I remember there being a "Beat em Up" mode in this version of the game that was pretty addicting during the time. THAT same feel is now in this game... Actually... Feels as if MOST of the Characters in Legend of Princess could be a part of the Guilty Gear Roster for some reason... The replay value is high, there's a decent amount of characters to choose from, graphics and music are both lively + set the mood, and Solange has a nice rack! ... What? That's one of the many things that just stick out in the game (note:im not much of a boobie person either and this character STILL manages to catch my attention.. Nice job, Atlus)!
Buuuuut hey! everyone gets tired of women swinging giant swords, right??? That's why I also happen to have Final Fantasy 3 for Iphone 4(stfu, I KNOW already how bad this phone is, shove it angry

), plays as well as the Nintendo DS remake once you get around to the on-screen directional pad!

^My own snapshot. Ya'll are probably shaking your heads at the classes I've set for each character. Brightside? Refia as a Ranger does SO MUCH DAMAGE! like DAMN, GURL! her high ass ATK stat is making the rest of the team look like a bunch... of..... Ffffffffffffffffff- oh hey, look! Almost forgot to post about Super Street Fighter 4 AE.

Super Street Fighter 4 AE on PS3 AND PC.... I have been switching between both every now and then (Using the same Playstation 1 Controller via usb converter) Some folks wonder why? Well.....

Playstation 3:

All mah friends play this version
Less Lag
I'm ACTUALLY maintaining an OK BP/PP score
My games ARENT ruined by friends via messenger sending greetings ~~;

PC Version:

Your choice of Music (via playlist or stage mods)
Community seems abit more active/talkative (lots of hate/compliment/advice messages)
A chance to show up on Stream
MODS MODS MODS MODS MODS! (Took a snapshot of a much better Training Stage)

Yeah... my main thing with AE on PC is mainly the mods... I have different music set up for each stage, KEN has his long SF Alpha hair, and BISON (Dictator) now fights WITH HIS CAPE ON (The "ima jack yo sh%# up" version of Bison), ANNNND..... annnd... Mmm... -drools-

...............

....

.......................

.................

......................................

.........

Nude mods... OH MAI GAWD the nude mods... you KNOW damn well I was going to go there.

It's always a pleasure to play other players on both platforms though (typically unhealthy but meh, whose complaining?). Other than that.. ugh... 2nd Darkstalkers re-release, I'll be waiting around for Capcom vs SNK 2 or Rival Schools to be released on PSN pleased

... Yep, slowly but surely *cough*... Still waitin.....

Yep...

still...

waiting for...

that announcement....

Anyday now...

THAT reminds me, didn't think I'd forget about my indie game collection, did ya? (Click on the images below for gameplay)

Robbie Swifthand -

Hahaha... I cant get enough of that last name... Swifthand... Anyways, this platform puzzle game is pretty entertaining if you're looking to pass the time. Run through rooms throwing orbs into tiny warp holes to get to the next area. Sounds easy, right? heh... heh heh heh...

Madhouse -

Reminds me of zombies ate my neighbors... REALLY reminds me of zombies ate my neighbors... Do you like playing Zombies ate my neighbors? This may be the game for you.

Figures:

Medicom RAH Black Rock Shooter (Black Variant) (Bootleg)

Sorry folks, im going to cut this portion of the weblog short today.

-I'm still getting used to my new camera (couldnt do this figure the proper justice it deserves)

-It's a bootleg. I've already mentioned before how I dislike the quality of Medicom figures -throws the figure base into the trash-. I havent read any reviews about the quality of this fig but I figured I might as well snag a bootleg for $89 rather than spending $250 - $500 on a figure that'll just fall apart of me anyways.

-It falls apart on me anyways, still kind of a WIP in the articulation section for now

- Although I have the BRS series sitting around, I still haven't had the chance to sit down and watch it after episode 2.

No worries though! I'll share abit more photos as well as my upcoming wishlist of figs im aiming for in the future (maybe). For those of you looking for a BRS Medicom Review, you'll have to look elsewhere.
