• Happy Saint Patrick's day

  Mar 17, 2009

  Hey guys it's march 17th which means it's Saint Particks day! The day to wear green, drink beer (or in my case root beer) and speak with a really fake irish accent xd

  My great grandfather on my mothers side was born in Ireland, so I can safely say the "kiss me I'm irish" line xd

  Lately I feel like I have the "spring fevor" that's going around, especially in the morning I feel a distinctive lack of energy which is odd seeing as I'm not doing much of anything at all since work has been really quite during the march break so far.

  Hopefully I'll get back to normal soon. In the meantime Amazon.ca finally shipped my copy of Star Ocean: The last hope for Xbox360. Since I found a copy of Ar tonelico 2 a couple weekends ago while in the boondocks the only other game that's out right now that I'm still waiting for is Star ocean 2 for psp and my copy of Tales of Symphoina: Dawn of the new world for wii that I won from the tales brigade so hopefully those will be in soon.
  
  Anyhow happy Saint Patrick's day guys

• Curtian call for the brothers

  Mar 13, 2009

  Today was a happy day for me, becuse I found out that we are Yanking the Jonas brothers movie out of my theater and putting Coraline back in 3-d. The best part was during the last showing of Jonas brothers tonight nobody showed up so I was able to pull the preverbeal plug on it and have the theater playing that movie shut down half an hour into the show.
  
  For once, the Superior movie won which is very nice to see, especially since people have been asking me for the last couple weeks why I haven't been handing them their 3-d glasses at the door when going to see Coraline.
  
  The funny thing was I was absolutely dreading the weekend that Jonas brothers movie was coming out, simply because the Hanna Montana 3-d movie was * on earth at my theater (or so I've heard).
  
  I was supposed to have that weekend off, but due to certian reasons I eneded up having to work it, and ironically that turned out to be for the best as I ended up getting interviewed for the April preshow which means I'm going to be up on the big screen, if only for a little bit.
  
  Goodbye Jonas Brothers movie, you shall not be missed. (Especially with your stupid music video still playing on the promo reel until the end of the month)

• Ultimate Ninja 4, it's coming get over it!

  Jan 10, 2009

  Their is a great injustice being done on this site. Basically any and all attempts on the forms to let people know that Ultimate Ninja 4 is coming out this spring have been censored by the other mods and even the Hokage himself simply becuse the game hasn't been officially announced online at http://www.namcobandaigames.com/news 
  
  
  I for one despise censorship of almost anykind especially this kind of stupid ceonsorship when the facts are blantently right in front of your face. At this point trying to hide it is just plain silly. So what if Shonen jump jumped the gun and revealed the game? What damage is their to control when it was obviously going to be coming out anyhow?
  
  I mean seriously they wouldn't extend the life of this website for nothing. It was supposted to end last year at the start of decemember and it didn't, and the only reason it wouldn't end is if a new naruto game was coming to north america.
  
  It's a simple process of elimination to figure out which game it would be. First for the most part the game would pretty much already have to exist in Japan before it could come over here. That eliminates a Uzumaki chronicales 3 and an ultimate ninja heros 3 simply becuse nither of them have been made yet out in the east.
  
  Storm was just released in October so no matter how fast they work on making a sequal it's going to take at least a year at bare minimum if not longer, since they have to update the character models to account for the time skip. 

  If it was Storm 2 by itself then it'd be much cheaper to close down the Hokage's room completely and reopen it closer to the release rather then waste the bandwidth for nothing in the meantime.
  
  Frankly the magazine articule didn't do anything but confrim something we already knew. While the announcment might not be online or directly from Namco-Bandai themselfs, it's STILL from Shonen jump which is about as offical as it gets.
  
  Just becuse this is the digital age dosn't mean everything is announced online first, nor does it mean an offical website is always up to date as some are horrendiously bad at keeping up.
  
  Now this censorship of deleteing the announcment isn't helping anything, simply becuse people are going to keep annoucing it anyhow. You're just making a loop where someone says the game is coming out, it gets deleted and then someone else annocences it again. Let's just get it over with already since the writing is on the wall as it where and has been for several weeks now. 

  
  
  So everyone, THIS is the one and only annocment right here. No need to keep posting about it on the forms as it's already old news by several weeks (I've already had the magazine since before December 22 when I made a blog entry posting the cover)
  
  It's just an OLD ps2 game finally getting over here now that the anime has caught up enough that playing won't spoil people who haven't watched the japanese version  *yawn*
  
  It's not that big a deal people, Honestly Accel 2 is the better game anyhow.

• Rewards shows

  Jan 8, 2009

  Thanks for the cool reward show Ivan as well as your's too Adri & Riri and thank you everyone who voted for me.
  
  I especially appecate winning the Best Blog award since I worked super hard on my blog in the past before things at collage and work made it hard to update on a regular basis.

  Now the December is over and the pure * that was winter break is behind me I'm thinking of ways I can bring my blog back up to speed as it where. Not everyday as it once was as I couldn't keep up with that pace for long, but at least a couple times a week if nothing else.

  (I was working over 30-40+ hours a week while sick at the busiest time of the year at my job in order to save up the last bit of tuition I needed for school)

  2009-04-07 (English volume 44)

  2009-07-07 (English volume 45)
  
  Beginning in February 2009, 11 new volumes of NARUTO will be released over 3 months, moving the series from Volume 34 (February 2009) to Volume 44 (April 2009) before returning to a quarterly release schedule beginning with Volume 45 (July 2009). First print-run editions of the volumes released in March and April will include a special promotional item – a bookmark or sticker.
  
  On the anime side Shippuden offically hits in January....

  Beginning on January 15th the latest episode of the NARUTO SHIPPUDEN (English-subtitled) animated series will be available for free viewing on the ultimate destination for anything NARUTO – the official NARUTO website, www.Naruto.com, within days of its original airdate in Japan. A new English-subtitled episode will be added every Thursday thereafter.
  
  On January 2nd, Viz Media will also debut, for free, 8 uncut, English-subtitled episodes from the beginning of the NARUTO SHIPPUDEN series on www.Naruto.com. Each Friday thereafter there will be an additional 8 uncut, English-subtitled episodes added on Naruto.com until the series eventually catches up to the current third season of the hit program. Also, coming this week, an exclusive sneak peek of NARUTO SHIPPUDEN (English-subtitled) debuting on Naruto.com.
  
  With the manga being speed up and the anime following can Accel for ps2 be far behind? With the Hokage's room going into hybernation and with big rpgs like Ar Tonelico 2 and Persona 4 still in the pipeline for the aging system, all signs point to YES!
