E3 Part 1: Consoles
Ok ok, its been a long time since i have posted anything, my apologies. But as most of you people know, is that E3 occurred this week. So if you haven't heard, sony microsoft and nintendo released there new consoles, durring the E3 press conference check em out:
Playstation 3
Let me just say WOW. Sony is really putting all they can out there on this next gen console. The hardware alone is amazing. Also the graphics are outsanding; the use of real time over CG is overwhealming. The only thing im worried about is how many studios will support the Blue ray disks, it seems that the studios are splite between blue ray and HDDVD. So here are the specs:
- It will support Blu-ray disks, DVD±R/W, CD-R/RW
- Backwards compatability to both the PS2 and PS
- One 3.2GHz Cell processor—total system performance rated at 2.18 teraflops
- 256MB system RAM 3.2GHz, and 256MB GDDR VRAM at 700MHz
- Memory Stick Duo slot, and SD and CF slots
- Bluetooth support with up to seven wireless controllers
- Six USB system ports
Xbox 360
So most of you people probably knew that the next gen Xbox was release announce a week before E3 on MTV, because all the true gaming fanboys love MTV. Durring their press conference, it seemed as they were trying to reach towards a different market. They preached that you can buy stuff on Xbox Live and use it to set up a business... yeah...idont get it either. They didn't try to shoot towards the hardcore gammers. Also I was dissapointed that I didn't see a new Halo game for a launch title for this new system. With this, i still believe that the Xbox will still be the best selling console for online gamming, that is a given, especially with the new console you can transfer your Xbox live account to the 360. Anyways here are the specs:
- Support for DVD-video, DVD-Rom, DVD-R/RW, CD-DA, CD-Rom, CD-R, CD-RW, WMA CD, MP3 cd, JPEG photo CD
- Customizable face plates to change appearance
- Support for 4 wireless controllers
- 3 symmetrical cores at 3.2 GHz each
- 512 MB GDDR3 RAM
Nintendo Revolution
So Nintendo's press conference went really well... well really quick I should say. Not too much information was released about this new console during the conference. There were no information about any games being realeased and there was no controller displayed, which makes me think that Nintendo will come up with another fancy controller liket the the 64 and gamecube. So this is what we know:
- All-Access Gaming, which refers to backwards compatibility to 20 years of Nintendo games, NES, SNES, N64. We don’t know particulars
- Downloadable to 512MB of flash memory
- SD memory card slot
- Wireless controllers
- Two USB 2.0 ports
- Built-in WiFi
- WiFi used to interface with the DS

The Hitchhikers Guide to The Galaxy
The movie is finaly out!!!!!!!! So I of course went to go see it on opening day.
So the movie is about this guy named Arthur Dent and his friend Ford Perfect, who is actually and alien. The earth is destroyed and Ford helps Arthur survive in the galaxy with a book called the Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy. As you know, the movie is based and the best selling novel by Douglas Adams. The movie itself was awesome: it was really funny, especially for English people, me being a person who hates English humor. The movie doesn't follow the book exactly, but what movie does. Im hoping that they make a movie adaptation to more of Douglas' novels. Overall this is a very funny movie, and would recomend reading the book before seeing the movie. I definately recomend that everyone see this movie, because everyone loves the fact that the answer to the universe is a mere number.

First 48: Loveless
Today I watched Loveless, but am still kind of confused over what I just watched. Aoyagi Rikka is in the 6th grade. His older brother was killed two years ago. One day a mysterious person named Agamtsuma Sobi appears. He asks Rikka to become the new Sacrifice to avenge his brothers death. So this is the basic storyline so far, BUT WAIT, it seems that this is a Shounen Ai, which involves a relationship between Rikka and Sobi. But it seems that Sobi was asked by Rikka's older brother to "Love" him; also it seems that Sobi and Loveless, Rikka's real name, grow stronger along side their so called love.
Ok so the slight homosexuality of this whole show kind of caught me off guard. To me it seems that Sobi is very similar Kaoru, from Evangelion, except Sobi has reasoning behind what he is doing. If you are able to get behind this confusing relationship, the story to this is actually quite decent. I cant really oppose nor recommend this series to you people because the story hasn't really progressed yet. What I will recommend is that you watch the first two episodes. If your are able to get behind the obvious and focus on the story line, then keep watching the series, it might get better. I will keep watching this series and give you my full opinion at the end of the series (note this is only a 12 ep series).
