No More Heroes. Coming soon to a PS3/360 near you!! THE HYPE'S TOO MUCH!! I think I'm gonna have a cardiac arrest. Oh, and waiter, make sure it's got a lot of ketchup on it. Thanks.

Feb 25th, No More Heroes will finally get its anticipated HD remake. Yes, it's a remake, so nothing actually new. HOWEVER, there will be awesome HD graphics and a new mode, "Super Sweet Mode", where all characters wear rather skimpy outfits. Oooooooo. Master Goichi, have I ever told you that SWEET BEJEBUS YOU ARE AWESOME. Sort of like Kojima, but really weird. Hooray for no more Wiimote!

Also, 3D Dot Game Heroes (one of my most hyped games of the year) is getting an English release in May, 2010. YES!! How awesome is that? Now I don't have to import it and fight with the (few) kanji that you can find in the game. The hype.. won't.. stop!! Feeling.. retro..

Speaking of retro, Lufia II (if you're a friend of really old JRPGs. you know it) is being remade on the DS! This time around it'll have 3D graphics and goes under the name of Estpolis. That's so awesome, can't wait! Now, if we'd just get SaGa 2 DS here..

Last but not least, do you remember that weird "RPG_LOST" teaser site? Well, there's some more teasing to be found. The site has 3 phrases rolling about: "That RPG will return", "Solve a lost mystery", and "A new adventure". I wonder what Namco Bandai means by that? ..I'm guessing it's .hack or Digimon. Please be a HD.hack! The countdown will stop on the 21st, when the game's finally revealed. Hoping for a Famitsu leak before that..

That's the news for now. And how do I fare? Well, I'm doing pretty good. Other than oversleeping a lot, school's going fine too. My folks are busy looking for Christmas presents (why so early!?) and I'm busy.. uh.. playing Tekken. I also hope Braid will be released on the European PSN soon. Thinking of importing GoW Collection, by the way.. Should I import that or Demon's Souls? Also, I'm actually getting my Bayonetta hype back..

Oh, and I downloaded Toro Station Weekly off the JP Store. Now that Mainichi Issho's over (), a weekly news update servicewith Toro and Kuro has launched. It's free todownload and use, and you get to transport your stuff from Mainichi Issho overto Weekly. If you want TWO updates a week and their new "home" to build up more quickly, pay 800 yen a month and you've got it. The weird thing is, I'm actually considering it..

I'm also playing Phantasy Star 0 on my DS like no tomorrow! That game's dangerously addicting, I tell ya. It's impossible to lower your DS while playing it! I'm pretty far in the story with my "main" character. I shall give impressions in the next blog, as this would be just too long. Anyways, if you've got a DS, get this game!

My computer was sent to repairs yesterday, and it should be back in a couple of weeks. The whole thing just collapsed suddenly. Blegh.

Aaaaanyways, this was just an update on stuff. I wanted to express my hype. I'll check your blogs after I finish this short essay, and then.. anyone up for a quick match of Tekken or some questing in Phantasy Star?

Anyhow, how are the pancakes? And the zebra? DON'T YOU DARE TO LEAVE YOUR ZEBRA ON THE PLATE, YOUNG FELLA!

Oh, sorry, I didn't notice you there. I was just, uh, talking to my ferret. I'm not keeping anyone in the basement or anything. No, sir. Want some pancake?

So yeah. Still can't enjoy my working Internet connection (aside from gaming online, which I do pretty rarely), since my computer's totally crapped. Luckily I can use my stepdad's computer to come to GS, though. So, expect more activity from me!

STOP TEASING MEEEEH!!

Remember the mysterious Namco Bandai's "Project K" teaser site? Well, the game was revealed yesterday. Guess what it is? Here's a hint:

KERORO RPG.

YES!! The game's for the DS and is made by the Tales team -- and it can be seen, as the game uses the battle system of the Tales series!! Not only that, but they've modified it so that you can do air combos now! The game's in 2D, which means more beautiful sprite art, just like in previous Keroro (platforming) games! OH, JOY!! You can check the trailer over here, and don't forget the official site! It doesn't have that much content yet, but it will certainly be added when the game's development is further. Right now, it's 60% complete! Can'twaitcan'twaitcan'twait. To celebrate, I went and bought the newest volume of Sgt. Frog. Woot! Its full name is Keroro RPG: The Pirate, The Warrior and The Knight, and it's scheduled for a 2010 release. So much hype.

Right after the revealing of Project K, Namco Bandai put up ANOTHER teaser site. The URL says RPG_LOST, which doesn't really help. 9 days from now, the game will be revealed at the site.

EVEN MORE (oh God, it DID become a fashion after all..) countdown sites coming up! Nippon Ichi has put up a Prinny (the game it promotes is kinda obvious, huh?) countdown. On Friday the 13th, a 1000-hour countdown will start, and every hour one Prinny will tell something informative. That.. Requires a lot of dedication to keep up with. x.x But fear not, for I am the ultimate NIS fan! Mwahahahaha. Ha. No. I'm so not keeping up with that. Or am I? "Prepares snacks"

Hmm.. Speaking of revelations, what do you think tomorrow's big FFXIII announcement is? I'm really looking forward to it. I hope it's not just another Collector's Edition announcement.. Blegh.

How I'm doing

Tomorrow, I'm also going to watch Paranormal Activity's Finnish movie premiere! Any of you folks thinking of going to see it? I LOVED Blair Witch, so this might be the first actually creepy horror movie from Hollywood in quite a while.

Gamewise, I've mostly been playing Tekken 6 and Wipeout HD. Both games are amazing, and despite not playing online that often, getting my Internet finally up has boosted my hype for the games. Speaking of Tekken, the fighting game weekend was awesome. We bought whole liters of energy drink named SPAM and played Tekken 90% of the time, leaving Guilty Gear and others in the background. I'm also surprisingly becoming good with Bob. Had some really epic matches there!

I also got Phantasy Star Zero for the DS! Anyone else got it? I'd like to try out the much praised online mode! I've played the story mode for a few hours, and man is it addicting! Much recommended to DS owners, and further impressions on it in my next blog! =^_^= PM me for my friend code!

But yeah, I guess that's all for now. I'll go buy some groceries and check your blogs once I get back! Laters!

Man, oh man. I wake up in the morning, perform my morning rituals (nothing can beat arm-wrestling a T-Rex at 6 AM) and look outta the window. And there it is. SNOW. The streets were covered with bright matter, causing my eyes to burn. I then ran outside and rubbed this matter in them, causing them to cease their fiery revolt and apple hands. I hate snow, man. I really do. Don't you? Well, no matter, now it's ALL OVER THE PLACE.

Another thing that's all over the place is a hot topic: da piggy illness. Looks like I can't enjoy my daily pig gut baths for some time.. My school currently has the most confirmed cases of swine flu in the whole capital city, with nearly 200 students absent with it. That's.. a lot. And the Gov't is late with the vaccine, and the shots can't be given in a while (even though they were meant to be handed out weeks ago). My sister's got it, but she's slowly but surely starting to recover.

I decided to get Tekken 6 instead of Fallout 3. I actually found the GOTY Edition for 30 euros, but Tekken's the most fun with friends. I'm going to a friend's place for a fighting game weekend tomorrow, and we'll play it there. However, Guilty Gear wasn't released Nov. 1st in Finland, despite it being the European release date.. Oh well. I had heard lots of bad stuff of Tk6's "story" mode, but I never expected it to be as bad as it is! The Arena located within the mode is pretty nice, but the character stories have become pretty lame and there are only like 3-5 matches per character instead of the usual 8-9. Oh, and the series has seen lots of annoying final bosses, but this one takes the crown EASILY. My God, that Azazawhatevah is A POOPYHEAD.

Ah, still no Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 table for Zen Pinball. x.x' At least there's the free Brutal Legend add-on.. And a 3D Dot Game Heroes theme for my PS3.

I got Umihara Kawase Shun for the DS a while back, by the way! It's a remake of a VERY addicting cIassic platformer. There isn't much to say about it -- if you've played it, you know what the DS version is like. There are some extra options, such as a DS-exclusive control scheme and a new mode, but otherwise it's the same old extremely enjoyable gameplay. Who doesn't like flinging around with a rope?

Ooooh. Namco Bandai has released a mysterious.. teaser site.. for an upcoming project. Come on, what's this crappy little fashion that game developers follow? A week from now means a Thursday shock, which usually means Famitsu leaks a few days in advance and probably a Jump leak the weekend before. When did you become so predictable, Japanese game announcement cycle?

Anyone else hyped for 3D Dot Game Heroes!? The game was just released in Japan. It has a character creation tool that kicks a lot of behind. Seriously. People have made Solid Snake, Rorona, Cloud and all kinds of other awesome characters. From Software has also made a bunch of other characters (available for download!) as well as.. LINK. Yes, From Software (kind of) put in Link. So this is what a 3D retro Zelda could've been like..

Anyways, not only does my Internet connection malfunction, but my Windows as well. So, no updates (at least on my own computer) until I install that Windows 7. I'm off to do homework now, but I'll be sure to check your blogs during today. Later, then!

Some people just don't have opinions. Like HavQ-san.
HavQ-san must really love MovieTome and agree with every review we've ever written! What other reason could HavQ-san possibly have for not rating a single film?
