I just got finished watching The Social Network in theaters and it inspired me a little bit. I am really geared up about the site now and want to do more. I thought about some things and am going to share them with everyone tommorow because i’ve had a long day. It mostly has to do with the staff so be ready.

New Pokemon game and I won’t be updating the site for a while.
First off this strange new Pokemon game came out for Wii and it reminds me of Hey You Pikachu for the Nintendo 64. Second,my laptop charger broke and it will take a week for me to get a new one so untill then I will not be updating the site untill then. Oh and it is my birthday tomrrow and I can’t wait for it!!! I am using my desktop to post this, but I will not use this to post since I could get in trouble. Untill then I hope everyone continues to contribute to the site and I will put up a review for Vanquish and Fable 3 when I return!

Reviews update
Well its pretty clear that the poll is gonna vote the dreamcast off (and even if it ended up being “Yes” i wouldn’t have wanted that to be the reason that the dreamcast stays on the site) so I decided just to end it early and get rid of it now. there was some confusion and disagreement but overall it shouldnt have been a big deal so let’s put this behind us like we always have.
also almost happy birthday sapph!
Walkthrough section updated
Hey, This is WilliamWillWillson with a little update.
My Ristar, and Mother 3 Walkthroughs have stagnated for very long, and
Paper Mario 3 has just failed completely.
Also to add insult to injury, my new screen recorder 30 day trial has expired and now I have to buy the full version.
Therefore, I have removed all my unfinished walkthroughs for the page to look more “professional”.
I reeeelly want to finish my Ristar Walkthruogh, but, my other method of recording (Easy Cap Cable)
cannot connect to my PC and I need a New product code.
Scince I used the product once on my mac, I have to uninstall it on my Mac, get the product code, and put it on my PC.
BUUUUUUUT…… It won’t let me uninstall it!!!
soo…. that is why the Walkthrough section is completely lacking…
If you want to get rid of the walkthrough page together, that is ok too.
Kinect arrives for the Xbox 360!
Kinect has finally arrived and it looks awesome. Kinect is very different from the Wii’s motion controls, and the Playsation Move because you do not need a controller to do the controls. Instead, you just use your body to move and Kinect picks up your movement. If you were playing a shooter game you would pretend to shoot a gun in real life and the character in the Kinect game will shoot! This goes the same for any RPG game, or sports game. In my opinion, I think Kinect is the coolest and the best of the three and I hope a lot of people to buy it. When I do get enough money I will buy one and lets everyone know how it is!

Move over September, October is the site’s best month!
I have been checking our stats for the past week and even though October is far from over it beat september for the blog’s best month when it comes to views. Expect 3 reviews next week since 3 big games come out on my birthday. I plan on reviewing Fable 3 and whoever wants to get the other 2 games can go right ahead and I think xghostbustersx will review the other two games. Also, expect a Xbox 360 Vanquish review from me in a few days. I went over a friend’s house to play it and I really want to buy that game so I hope thats another present for me! Anyway, lets hope for more success and that we try to have less problems over time with the site!

Goodbye Gamestop Edge Cards, and Hello PowerUp Cards
Today I went to gamestop to get a gift card for my cousin and when I gave them my edge card the cashier said that gamestop does not use them anymore. For free he gave me the new PowerUp Rewards Pro card and told me to go to poweruprewards.com to activate my card and get 250 points just for signing up. For anyone who has an edge card should go to gamestop right away and get the new PowerUp card. With this card you get basically the same discounts as an edge card, but with this you get a Welcome Coupon, 10% point bonous on all purchases and 10% off new stratgedy guides and pre-owned accessories. Also with every purchase or trade you get 2 Epic Reward Giveaway entires. With this card you also get to be in members-only invitations and of course lots of discounts. So far I have 750 points and I reccommend this card for any person who does shop at gamestop. Remember to get this card if you still have an edge card and make shure you do everything they say online to get to at least 750 points! To get more points just simply buy stuff from the store or online, and trade in your games to get points as well!

Monster Update Complete.
That was probably the biggest update I have ever done in my life. Anyways, check out the reviews tab it’s a lot more organized and proffesional than before. TO THE STAFF: Please work to fill these pages as soon as you can!
New Changes to the Reviews Page and Flashback is going to be deleted
If you have not noticed yet, if you go to the reviews page you will see the names of all the consoles and if you click on them you will see the reviews for that console only and they are in ABC order. Beacuse of this other staff members and I decided to delete the Flashback tab as soon as the update to the reviews page is complete. I think this going to be great for the reviews page and that the page is going to look much neater. We hope everyone likes this new update and that it really does end up getting us more views!

Star Wars Force Unleashed 2 Release Date
This could be old news for some, or new to others, but the release date for Force Unleashed 2 is October 26th which means yet another game comes out on my birthday. I guess you can say I am one luckey dude, but do not expect me to buy all the games that do come out on my b-day. I did liked the first Force Unleashed and I hope this new one is better and offers more multiplayer options.
