Who wants to be a Superhero
I should have signed up for this. I could have been someguy in a dumb suit. I could have been a contender.
Castlevania Flaming Whip
A whip that is on fire. How Simon Belmont got a hold of all these items is unknown.
On the other hand, the 2d Ocarina of Time is looking pretty good.

A Final Fantasy Wedding
You know you have reached geekdom when the wedding march is music from a game.

Everybody wants to be a Cat
Ev'rybody Wants To Be A Cat
Music composed by Floyd Huddleston and Al Rinker.
Lyrics written by Floyd Huddleston and Al Rinker.
Performed by Phil Harris [Thomas O'Malley].
Everybody wants to be a cat,
Because a cat's the only cat
Who knows where it's at.
Everybody's pickin' up on that feline beat,
'Cause everything else is obsolete.
Now a square with a horn,
Can make you wish you weren't born,
Ever'time he plays;
And with a square in the act,
He can set music back
To the caveman days.
I've heard some corny birds who tried to sing,
But a cat's the only cat
Who knows how to swing.
Who wants to dig
Along-haired gig
Or stuff like that?
When everybody wants to be a cat.
A square with that horn,
Makes you wish you weren't born,
Ever'time he plays;
And with a square in the act,
He's gonna set this music back
To the Stone Age days.
Because a cat's the only cat
Who knows where it's at;
While playin' jazz you always has a welcome mat,
'Cause everybody digs a swingin' cat.
Everybody digs a swingin' cat.

John Snider and Ninja Turtles
I hope this doesn't get John Stalked. But the person describing the game looks like him. The hair has the same flip. And Ubisoft looks very unlike any videogame company I have seen.

A Funny Artist
I like this artists style. So I decided to show the art. It is a bit hard to figure out, but the next button is on the top right and looks like an icon of the next picture.

Some quick links
- Ok first off we have a really well done Star Trek Fan Series.
- Then we have a home made NERF Gun that can penatrate cardboard, With Intrstructions.
- I can guess that you want something really nerdy, how about imagining the Tenth Dimension.
- And the film Buff will always want a Horse Head Pillow. (Sorry about the picture in one of these.) Or a Pirates of the Caribean Fire Place.
- And finally a fun game.

Blender is now better
I would link every thing important, but the article here already does it.
Blender is a program built to do every thing the user wants for a rendered environment . It is also free.
I guess this new update includes everything a production company needed to make a movie. So this makes the Blender program much better.
I have to say, collaborative movies are pretty cool.
An Arcade Game based on Che and Fidel
The commentary says that no one else in the world besides America has a problem with Fidel. I guess everyone else in the world is worried about there own dictator living nearby.

Animal Crossing Movie
A story about a Ninja, a Girl, and a village filled with talking animals. Truly the greatest epic story ever made. Most especially if Tom Nook is able to create his robot army.

Columbine Doom Fans
The Diaries of the Columbine shooters are now open to the public. As it turns out they where big time game fans. No one really knows how to react around this.
The article also shows a fan letter for Doom by one of the shooters.

Japanese Robotics will Rule The World!!!
There is no mention of a Gundam in there. Though I figure that will probably be a reference point for most Japanese.
It is interesting to see that robots in Japanese TV shows are simply a means to an end. American and European culture give them the thought of Superiority. Or that some how Man will be wiped out by them.
I do have one problem with this article. Right now there is a concern that our population is declining. This is both true and untrue. The truth is that we are naturally compensating for our means at the moment. So when the Old and Graying die off -no offense to any friends that are old and graying- the population will gain more children. This cycle has been seen from the other end as well.
Our ideas of over population came from the idea that we are having to many babies. Get the idea.
Feeling a little bit Peckish my self.
An article on all of this.
Futurists tend to have great theories, and some do come true. But never in the way that the person thought it would.
Case in point, 1984. We all live in a world where anyone can find out anything about anyone. And nothing is thought badly about this. So we are becoming our own Big Brother.
Or that Kahn Noonian Singh was captured in 2002 according to Star Trek Mythos. And that this was the end of World War III.
The transhumanists are scary though. I wonder if they will ever gain political power. Will it be politically correct to say, "he speaks with a forked tongue." Or, "She is very catty."
Enough Speculation, good night.

Net Neuterality
The website it self is built to inform women of predators, and unfaithful boyfriends. I actually like the idea.
I was going to post the front page. But it seems the website is branching out into womens langire.
First off , why does a sexual predator site need a langire line.
Second, how do you spell langire. I am only guessing here.
Thirdly, why is it that almost all the guys are 6 Ft or above. I would guess that other shorter guys can be just as bad. But it seems that the more height means the worse guy?
Fourthly, being over 6 Ft my self, does this automatically make me a problem?
More importantly with this article is what the girlfriend did. She looked up her boyfriend. She found out every part of his life through the internet, and by following him. In other words she was stalking him. Should this be allowable?
I remember when I was a computer tech at a TV station. I would look up my co workers on the internet. This was viewed as sort of creepy so I stopped. Now this is completely acceptable. And some of those same people are surprised not to find me after a good Google.
I think its great that people are writing about how bad some of these guys are. That they are predators and need to be stopped. The idea of being anonymous on the web is finally starting to be proven false. And this has good things for it.
An interesting conflict of emotions for me. I hate the guys, but fear the consequences to capture them. Most especially if a post is lying. We don't have any checks for that.
It is as if 1984 happened, and everyone turned out to be big brother.
This Comic has truth in it
I have often wondered if that was true.
This one sort of scares me. It is pretty funny. But it might also mean that much more angry, jerks, with guns for the people who go door to door. I did that for a living. For some odd reason, going to some ones door was considered over kill.

A great quote about Art.
With games like Animal Crossing, Nintendogs and Brain Training, Nintendo has already succeeded in selling games to people that didn't really care much for gaming.
- What we see with Animal Crossing on Nintendo DS, is that it's been a hit to people that's been playing for a long time, but also to people that's never played a game. I know several mothers that plays the game with their kids. As a result of this, the game has already sold millions, just in Japan. The last game only sold around 600,000.
I really like this quote because it is true. Animal Crossing is a great way to introduce people to playing videogames. And those that play them anyway enjoy the game even more.
This is how it should sound
| The Google website has a button to put this video directly onto the blog. Obviosly they are figuring out how much money this free advertising is making them. Played on the organ, you hear: Super Mario World (Castle Theme), Zelda Dungeon Theme, Super Mario 64 Bowser Theme, Chrono Trigger (Magus Battle), Naruto (Orochimaru's Theme), FF9 (Pandemonium), Cowboy Bebop (Rain), FF3 (Dancing Mad). | |

Railgun
I am checking now to see if they have some intstructions. If so, then I will be building one for a hobby. I have some ideas for the fuel source even.

The Top Years for Videogames
I just saw the history of videogames. So this list has more meaning to me.
The author seems to prefer Sega though. I view that as a personal problem. I mean Nintendo has built far better games.
Jumping the Shark
The author names 10 games that have jumped the shark.
I disagree on two of them. I happen to really like the Tony Hawk series. What I think the team at NeverSoft need to do is create an updatable system. Release a new set of levels and story every year. But release newer and newer levels every three months. Buy a game for $60 then when every year by the new chapter at $20.
The reason for this is so that you can play every level on one game. I got really tired of switching disks when I wanted to play certain levels.

Oh yeah, Sister Princess is a great show.

Discussion on Videogames
It was brought up that videogames are not art. And no one explains why, This article tries to look into it. The reasoning seems to be that videogames don't try for meaning or interpretation. The good game creators give you emotions and things to think about. But nothing out side of the game. So there is no way for videogames to be art.
This article is about Wikipedia but really it deals with some of the same subjects.
I guess the best move would be to make a game where the game shows different sides of a real situation. Would that even sell? Such an interesting question. I don't know if I have anybody really following this blog. ButI am curious if any readers have any ideas or opinions on the matter.
Free Books
This site allows the reading of classic books. I am trying to decide on what to read at the moment.
Pandora
This site is perfect for people that like to hear music.
I typed in Black Hole Sun one of my personal favorite rock songs. And am now listening to all sorts of songs that are similar to it. Not just in lyrics but in beat.

Alliance Silent War
A friend of mine pointed me toward this game. It has over 200 guns on display and some nice looking graphics. I wonder how the game plays as well?

Opinions on Videogames
Lets get the easy stuff out of the way first.
Here is a good list -pictures included- of every system ever released. I will admit that I have wanted to play a game from just about every one of them.
The oddest thing I notice is that the list shrinks as the generations go by. The shortest was this generation with 4 systems. And then next generation will have 3.
Sony wants to have its system being used as a computer as well. And I don't think that Microsoft or Nintendo will not be using computers. Are all of our systems slowly becoming computers that also play games?
On to the tougher part. I will just post the link. There is a lot to talk about. And I am tired so I will talk about it later.
I found an article about Modelism. It is about half way down. And yes, most predictive statements for complex systems should be considered a joke.
This whole global warming thing is the reason why I want to be a modelist. I saw some of the models and then looked at some of my videogames. The question on why no one has released these models for testing came to mind. Then I realized that no one had thought of it.

Mother 3 in 3D
A cool idea for a good game. The thing about is this, the creator is not very good at 3D. For this reason he stays in 2d. If some fans where able to donate the time to help him out, a game like this might be made. Its a definantly cool idea.
The Mother series is a comical RPG. It takes place in modern times and uses things that people from our time fear. For instance, Hippies, UFOs, Dinosaurs, Zombies, Possesed Blues Brothers.
If you click on the home link, you see red riding hood with a butcher knife. Cutest morbid picture ever.
Just some random stuff

Creepily Familiar
The pictures are well done. But the propaganda does seem familiar to propaganda today. Some used on Americans against other Americans.

It shows every gene sequence that has been fully followed.
The other one just shows mid pop balloons.

Make your own nation
Interesting idea. Lets see where it goes, the forums are pretty interesting as well.
As in, I think the group that made this are a little insane.
I guess I should show off IrChichke and tell you that the program knows nothing. It does not recogonise when some one is using another language. Lets put this in the Pacific, they have no Ch sound. And Eastern Europe doesn't want to deal with lies anyway.
