I got two new games
I change my mind.. Now that I have a comfortable place to sit while playing games, I'd say Unreal 3 is pretty cool. Still no where near as good as Warhawk, but it is good.

The Media has gone too far!

Still, I was hoping the referenced article would be something more than a "PSP is dying" article. Not exactly material I'd use to show that the media has gone too far. Maybe an article that says "consoles leak radiation that gives you brain cancer", or something like that.
The article is as ridiculous as an article claiming consoles leak radiation. Anyway, it's not a surprise article, I clearly said the media always sucked, but that article just shows how painfully obvious it is now.

@Bowie... I don't know about that, the PSP has had some great titles and is getting bombarded by RPGs now. Monster Hunter set it on fire in Japan, but it sold like crap everywhere else. lol

One more time; FIGHTERS!
Guy was my favorite on Alpha 2. Idk why, but I could always do some crazy combos with him.

Yahoo says Sonic franchise should be put to rest

Oh God, Ray, when I made this topic, I just knew you would bring up your Mario shit again.

But Mario ISN'T struggling. Believe it or not, Mario actually has good games and always gets positive reviews. I both like Mario and Sonic but your Mario crap is starting to get old, Ray.
I don't know about that... Mario was struggling on the GameCube when all they had was a lame spinoff(Luigi's Mansion) and the not-so-good sunshine... He got rave reviews on Wii, but it wasn't exactly innovative or game-changing. It was more like Mario 64 in space.

And it was thanks for his appearance in Brawl and in Olympic Games that gave his reputation a small boost.


I disagree... The Olympic game was atrocious and since you want to point to reviews as reference, it got quite horrible reviews.

The Media has gone too far!
Well what am I saying? The media has always been shit, but it's just so darned funny that the sheep continue believing what they are fed by the teet of corporate media. Laugh with me!!! It's so damn funny!! Hahaha ahahaha ha! /psycho

Yahoo is now posting its doom and gloom about PSP, saying how it's "doomed" and "failing"... Goodbye PSP. This article is so misleading who ever wrote this must not have done any homework. What is the reason for this highly incorrect statement? Well I think it has to do with the sales and popularity. I remember when the media and press was bashing the Big N's motion sensing console before it was ever launched. Now all of a sudden its the talk of the town. Why the change of minds? Just because its #1 on the market? It's certainly not games, because the Media even admits the Wii has had a lousy year. Remember the Dreamcast? The media was praising it at first around launch, but before the PS2 launched all of a sudden they reminded the gamers about Sega's past like the Saturn, 32X, Sega CD. Was all of that necessary? It was IMO one of the reasons it ended up the way it did. There were other factors as well. I thought the N64 and Gamecube were good systems and boy did the media hammer them. I don't base systems on its popularity or sales, I base them for what they are: hardware, selection of games, and fun factor.

On the article he used words like "disappeararing", "eroding", "nobody's making PSP games any more", "nobody's buying them", "psp hardware designs old hat", "missed the boat", etc. He even compared the Iphone & Ipod Touch. What the hell! He's right, no ones buying PSP's that explains why there's over 40+ million PSP's worldwide, it's continuing to sell at a good pace, why Final Fantasy Crisis Core is close to selling 2 million copies worldwide, etc. That also explains why Sony, Capcom, and SquareEnix are showing a lot of love and support for the handheld:

So why are they reporting this garbage when none of it is true?! I think the media is trying to please the readers hence supporting the stronger and bashing the weaker. Clearly not "professional" at all, but it has always been that way.

If you know your stuff, then journalist's articles are just another person's biased opinion, but most people do not and that's why we see the big influence of the gaming websites nowadays. I've seen people that are getting rid of their PSP all because of the junk that they read on the Internet. An example of mindless suckling; a friend of mine was going to get rid of his PS3 simply because an article stated that PS3 has no good games coming out(There's no denying it's '09 lineup is looking good) and BluRay is dying(Dark Knight set records for BluRay). I'm not usually the type of person that insults people but I called him an idiot. If he/she jumps the bridge, are you gonna jump as well? Don't believe everything that the media/Press says and don't believe everything that FOX News or CNN says. Some people are naive bubbles and I could post evidence from all over the spectrum including: cars, music, musicians, etc.

In conclusion, THE MEDIA SUCKS AND ALWAYS HAS!!!


One more time; FIGHTERS!
Tekken 6 will own everything, even if Namco-Bandai is a moronic company now.

Tekken rules, but Street Fighter IV will probably be pretty awesome as well. I also enjoyed Virtua Fighter from Sega.

I got two new games
Unreal Tournament 3 and Warhawk.

Unreal Tournament 3 looks just like Gears! No surprise there, it's made by Epic. So far I'm not impressed though... I'm not a fan of first person shooters. I liked Resistance and heard good things about this so I decided to get it since used it was only $18. The campaign seems a little bland in the missions where you have to defeat the enemy by destroying their core or capturing their flag... So it's basically like online with a story added to it and bots. Granted I haven't played it long, so maybe it'll get better. I've heard online was what this game is great for, but after Warhawk, I doubt I'll be playing this much online.

Warhawk is just all around AWESOME! It just pulls you in and makes you want more and I only played the demo. I hate online games and the only online game I've liked was Tribes 2. In fact I liked it so much I spent thousands of hours on it over 4 years. It was just so addicting! Warhawk is somewhat like Tribes, only more realistic and less fantasy. I can't wait to get my own DSL so I can play it at home.

Guess What I found in another forum
Hey man, no bashing! Black Hero isn't nothing and it doesn't suck, they are also our affiliate. That said, it's free promotion! If people see that, they'll want to come here to see what he's talking about and when they do they'll see it doesn't suck..

He deserves to have his shameful post pointed out. He did nothing? He flamed Gale and this whole place. He shouldn't have over reacted about someone not liking his idea. If someone didn't like his idea, he could have simply came up with a better one instead of creating this moronic topic. His idiocy will be forever remembered at Sonic Blast. Btw, HyperShadow knows nothing...

I'm not sticking up for her, but he brought this onto himself. If, IF Gale(Gale, did you do this?!) actually called him names over the PM, he should have reported it and it would be done with.

Instead he went and flamed her back in this thread.

Sorry everyone for saying it wasn't funny. Dial up is slow and I didn't read everything... This was funny!!

In response to the quoted person. Give it up, it was enough for HyperMephiles to be shamed by his first post, you don't have to act like what he did was justifiable. He flamed and over reacted about nothing at all, if he can't behave normally and take criticism, it's his problem.

YUO GUYS THINK YOUR SO HILAREOUS ALWAYS GANGIGN UP AND PICKING ON WHO EVER YUIO WANT. HYPERSHADOW WAS WRITE ABOUT THIS ENTIRE FOPRM

YOUR ALL A BUNCH OF **bleep**S LIKE HE SAID.
The only thing slightly hilarious was the original posters post. Getting bent out of shape because no one liked your idea is a ridiculous reason to start flaming.

Hypershadow? Rofl, he hasn't been here in forever and he has no say in what goes on here, because he has no knowledge. If he says anything about this forum, it's just made up B.S.

As for this thread, I don't really see the point. It wasn't lulz, the first one was lulz, because some guy randomly started saying he was hunting him down. This one just had a moronic and unnecessary post which really wasn't that funny.

Yahoo says Sonic franchise should be put to rest
Yahoo is better than Google though... D: Well they both suck, dogpile ftw!!

I agree with all of their assessments aside from Sonic.

Video games series you don't want to see in '09...
Call of Duty sucks and that's another game that shouldn't come out next year! I seriously don't get why they keep on churning out the same thing after same thing. COD 1-3 were exactly the same but had better graphics as it went on and all required no skill. I don't know how a series like that became so popular.

I'm back~
Epic Lulz return thread...

XD Nah. Welcome back.

I am New
Welcome to the forum, it's great to have you here! Hope you make lots of friends!

Next Gen Sonic - Black Knight doesn't count as it's on Wii. I think they should wait till 2010 for a new Sonic game on 360/PS3.
Doesn't count because it's on the Wii? Is the Wii not considered a gaming system? They are lots of Sonic fans who have nothing but a Wii so you have to give the Wii some credit. Believe it or not, the Wii is next-gen. Don't just say that because of the graphics.

Call of Duty. I don't think they need to release one every year. I'm still busy with Modern Warfare, let alone World at War.

Oh and Guitar Hero and Rockband. Christ, especially Guitar Hero, they have lots of sequels every year.
It doesn't count because it's a whole different group of people working on it, I believe. Just like Secret Rings wasn't developed by the same people as Sonic '06.

The Wii is not anything like the 360 or PS3 in terms of hardware, so the whole it's going to be lumped with them doesn't fly. Saying it's in the same generation is acceptable.

Layout Changes!
It's not going to effect activity there if that's what you mean. If that were true then the Information Kiosk would be the most popular forum and same with the Welcome forum, but Station Square Hangout is the most popular according to views.

Calender
I acknowledged this part, but I thought you said there was something wrong with adding events, because adding events works I just did. :D If not, then I just misread it. I think I'll be using the calendar more often now.

Video games series you don't want to see in '09...
Almost anything from Ubisoft. They always churn out games left and right, nearly as much as Madden.

Specific franchises would have to be:

Need For Speed - for reasons mentioned above.
Burnout - I think they should wait another year to put another one of these out.
Next Gen Sonic - Black Knight doesn't count as it's on Wii. I think they should wait till 2010 for a new Sonic game on 360/PS3.
Final Fantasy - They keep churning out spin offs and sequels, it's just disgusting. Squaresoft was the best at RPGs back in the day, but once they turned to Square-Enix, it was all about money and their games started sucking(look at the flop of The Last Remnant).

Other than that, nothing comes to mind.
