Hey everybody,

I thought I would share this with you:

IF you haven't yet heard about the Manitoba Greyhound Bus incident than you should go take a read. Its truely disturbing. I shared this with you so you could read the moronic american attitude towards things of this nature. You can tell when one of the canadian responders tries to lighten the mood by making a funny comment.

Hey guys, I would like to start off saying that Sony fanboys are idiots, I would put up with their nonsense if half of the shit they said was true...but it isn't...

Follow this link, and read the report...then call all your Sony fanboy friends and tell them to suck on an xbox360 shaped lemon. Remember to read some of the comments at the bottom of the story, because oddly enough (here are Sony fanboys for you) they talk about how much 360 sucks and how they traded in the 360s for PS3s....Did they read the article or just the title??? Idiots.

 All they ever babble on about is the "good ol days" when it was just them and Nintendo and they didn't really need to do well because Nintendo has never really been, nor tried to be, a graphics power house, and Nintendo got the games for Younger audiences while Sony took the more mature audience as well. Then one-day shit hit the fan for Sony and Microsoft released the Xbox, a system that was more powerful, more financially free, and could compete in the gaming market for the mature audience. Then the PS2 had o put up with years of being spanked. Then the 360 was released and shortly after the PS3, now Sony had something that was suppose to be on the same level of play. Except that in Sony's reckless abandon to climb back on top of console gamming, they made wild promises about games and technology. Some of it was untrue, some of it still was true but left out important details. In the end you get the above article...Sony net revenues dropping.

 You know why people are buying PS3s, because they are cheap blue ray players. I bet that half the people who own a PS3 aren’t even gamers! Then the die-hard fanboys come out saying that they have a bunch of good games...They don't. The ones they do have are multi-platform and perform better on a 360. This has been proven in a side-by-side comparison on various websites. Sony has one good exclusive game which is MGS4, 360 has bought their other titles and it won't be long before they buy that as well. In comparison the 360 has more exclusive titles included blockbusters like the Halo series, Gears of War, Fable, Too Human, Mass Effect and more. I will concede hat under the hood the PS3 has the capabilities to produce better looking and smoother running games than the 360. BUT it doesn’t happen because it is both more difficult and more expensive for developers to program to Sony's system needs.

Anyways, I had to get that off my chest, until next time!

Well faithful readers, this weekend the WAFN crew decided to go to Ottawa to see the year's most anticipated film in IMAX and let me tell you we were NOT disappointed!

To get things started, the story takes off a little while after the ending of Batman Begins. Batman (Christian Bale) and Lieutenant Gordon (Gary Oldman) have teamed up to clean up the streets of Gotham city. After being hammered into submission by Batman, the crime bosses turn to a psychotic newcomer known simply as "The Joker". A man motivated by sheer chaos whose only wish is to watch the world burn. Against such an unstoppable force Batman becomes nearly helpless and must confront what he would need to become to stop this evil.  

The Dark Knight was a non-stop thrill ride that was completely action packed with a psychotic twist in the most pleasurable way. Christian Bale's performance as Batman was yet again something to behold, as well as Aaron Eckhart's portrayal as Gotham city's white knight "Harvey Dent (two-face)", but lets not kid ourselves here....this movie was all about the Joker through and through with Heath Ledger (deservingly) receiving more camera time than the caped crusader himself. Heath Ledger's performance as the Joker left me and the entire WAFN crew at the edge of our seats, open jawed in amazement. His psychotic portrayal was one all his own with such a rich and complete character. Everything from his maniacal laugh to his deliciously evil plots to his subtle but creepy quirks just made the audience completely believe he was a true homicidal maniac. It was a testament to his incredible skill as an actor and the bitter sweet fact that it was his best and sadly last performance of his short life. This movie will keep you guessing from beginning to end with its impossible twists and turns while filling you with excitement from the ridiculous action. I don't want to give away any spoilers so I will just say this...GO SEE THIS MOVIE. I hope I speak for the whole WAFN crew when I say this was one of THE best movies I have ever seen. I give it a 10 out of 10...oh fuck it...I give it a 12 out of 10. 

With that I ask you, please leave your comments and tell me what you thought of the movie, good or bad. Until next time everyone, I ask you...Why so SERIOUS?

Sonys got balls -- well... they have something. It sure as hell isn't balls though. If anything the only thing Sony has is a unfilled need for some basic intelligence.

 

Sony in all their thick headed moments decided it that their 2.4 firmware release somehow out does the 360's firmware. The funny thing about this is that they think scrolling is better than the way the 360 presents content. Now if anybody reading this is a software developer they know that the number one rule about designing web pages is "people hate to scroll". Good job Sony. You've proven to us all just how big of a tool your organization really is.



Aside from that the much appraised trophy system in the new sony firmware is spotty. Meaning, that there are games which don't even offer trophies. i l0l'd. Go Sony. So the one good thing you thought you had is now sub-sub-par of an achievement. Yes... ACHIEVEMENT!. Many of you will recognize that word as it is the word used by the 360's ACHIEVEMENT system which is.. GOOD! Now Sony, I hope this is clear by now but with your heads so far up your own asses I'm not sure you picked up on that so I'll reitterate: your trophy system ripped off the 360 achievement system and your system is shittier.

The funniest thing about this is when I read about them it was in my google reader. Sony bragging about their new firmware first then the next item in my reader was that alot of games are chooseing not to support trophies.



I've read quite a bit about Sony's bullshit and man they are getting on my nerves. But Sony is only half as bad, if that, compared to their annoying ass fanboys.

Let me tell everybody very explicitly that I was a faithful Sony player for most of my life, in fact I still own a PSP (The only good thing to ever come out of Sony's gaming department), but when the XBOX was released it was clear that Sony was producing an inferior product and that reverberated into the nex-gen systems (360, PS3) as many of Sony's best selling titles have moved over to the XBOX platform. And if your a gamer you won't care which system is stronger so long as it has the best games.

So Sony fans, smarten up. Get off your stupid shit and buy a 360.


Ps. MGS4 sucked balls. What a let down eh? Just when you thought you guys had something. Sigh. Poor fanboys.

I found this little doozy today. Probably the coolest concept ever. Check out the video.

 

 

I noticed a number of other cool looking phones but this was by far the most interesting. I wonder how long into the future we'll have to wait before we start seeing products like these line the shelves of our local radioshack.

So I thought I would make a quick post about upcoming games to keep an eye out for, and if you have yet to hear of them all the better for you.

 Obviously there is Dawn of War 2 as rapidfire pointed out and COD5 as Logicalnot pointed out, but what else

 October of this year we have a nex-gen GHOSTBUSTERS game YEAAAA, with all the original actors back to do the voice work and the story being written by Dan Akroyd and Harald Ramis so it should be promising

 Starcraft II is a no brainer, I mean come on, if you don;t know about this one...get off my site

Alone in the Dark wil actually be released this month and promises to be a very innovating game in terms of story and graphics...two eyes on the sky

Left for Dead, here is one by our friends at Steam, creators of such games as Half Life and Counter Strike, so this will be Couter Strike meets Zombies

Star Wars: Force Unleashed is gonna to be SWEEEEEET

So this is part one of my eyes on the games series, have fun...

ITS BEGUN! You know that horrible feeling inside you that rots you from the inside out. The feeling you get when a platoon of Chaos Demons is steadily approaching your army of pussy ass tomb kings or ogres. The feeling when your on the stern of a ship as it breaks in half and sinks. The feeling you get when you see Rambo rip a mans asophogus out. The feeling you get when you fall in love. The feeling you get when the next Call of Duty has been announced and you sit waiting for it to be released. Yeah that feeling.

The new Call of Duty, although not officially announced has had words about it from the publisher. The game will be entitled World at War. Which is pinning up the usual forces up against Imperial Japan this time. The developers said they are aiming to introduce the players to a darker corner of the WWII story. And yes, you hear me right -- WWII. That means our time is up for the advanced warfare thing...for now (hopefully).

Activision has assigned Treyarch to develop the game. Word has it you can burn down buildings and bushes etc with your new flamethrower (yes the game has a flamethrower in it). The game is also said to introduce a number of new multiplayer perks, including many of the ones from previous games like COD4 but a new lineup of perks that are more suited to the time period.  The single player campaign introduces COD players to the ability of commanding your troops as you play.

After reading about this, all I can say is that I poop'd a bit out of excitement. The game sounds wicked but now its up to Treyarch to make it pwn as hard, or hopefully harder, than COD4 did.

You guys can count on me to keep you up to date on this pwn-awesom-age story as it develops.

 

Take care d00ds. Now go train for COD5!!!
