As many of you know I hate these stupid, "I TAG DIS N00B TO TELL ME ABOUT HISSELF!!!!!!" things. They're hella dumb. I once ranted that I would not support them. Well, I figure, why get mad? Why not turn this $*** on it's head? I mean, you tagged NeonNinja. So you'll learn about NeonNinja.
1. I am made up of 10 electrons, 10 protons and (most commonly) 20 neutrons. Also, I'm apparently Noble. Go figure!
2. I once had a killer penguin implanted in my head by Orochi_RockMan causing mass hysteria in the tavern for many weeks... >_?
3. I once thought bullet was threatening me so I called him out... but he was joking... V_V Sorry bullet....
4. There are people out there who claim that I am "The Man, The Myth, The Legend: NeonNinja."
5. There are other people out there who hate the folks that claim I am "The Man, The Myth, The Legend: NeonNinja." They say, "You're no myth, you're the real deal, brah!"
6. I have many nicknames, some folks call me IceMan, others call me Cheek, some RammyRam but the honest ones call me handsome. The flirty ones just say cutie.
7. BioShock is a n00bfest.
8. I was born in a Nuclear Fusion Reaction in an unknown, as of yet undiscovered, Super-Giant CIass star once He burning and C burning came to an end and Ne burning began. Basically, I'm awesome on an intergalactically stellar level!
9. I died on The Road to Fifty... yeah, I killed myself off IN MY OWN STORY.
10. I probably think your mom is hot. Don't take it personally... just take it. Besides, you should accept it as a compliment, it probably means you're pretty good-looking yourself. ![]()
First of all, five of these facts are completely made-up. Figure out which ones if you like. The last one is a joke. Four of them are related to GS. Two of them are scientific fact that have nothing to do with me. Basically I just made the stupidest list of stupid lists ever. I did not mention one thing about myself and that was intentional.
As is tradition, I refuse to tag any and every single person I know. I find this to be an annoying habit and I will not spread it to other users. The only reason why I went ahead with this is because MadVybz is a new friend of mine and after I complained he mentioned he did it because I'm awesome. I respect people who state the obvious when it is to my benefit so I posted this up for him. It doesn't contain an ounce of anything about me off of GS, everything is about something that happened on GS or is based on the element of Neon in some way aside from the fact that I probably think your mom is hot.
My stance is that you don't need to know anything about me. My blog is like a voice. It should tell you about the kind of person I am, what kind of personality I have, what my tastes in games are, etc. You do not need to know about what kind of girls I'm into, if I'm in a relationship, how my car is functioning, what my political views are, etc. I fully expect people to be able to make their own judgment calls on me based on what they know. Sure, sometimes I mention I did four hours of homework... but that's it. I don't actually blog about school. Go figure. I've been a part of this community for 4 and half years, you either know what kind of person I am or you start figuring it out by checking out what I have to say in this blog, in your blogs' comment sections, on the forums, etc. I just like to write about games and stuff. So, to save this blog from being a humiliating failure in every way I'm going to talk about something game-related.

So, I am now eight hours into Tales of Vesperia. Certain events have happened and have taken some turns that seem a little, well, wrong (in a good way). But the best thing is that we have been reintroduced to Raven! OH YES, BRAH, YES!!!!!!!1 After he breaks you out of jail in the beginning of the game he's was gone for the longest time.
I hope this guy eventually joins your party. I swear, he talks to people exactly like I would. Please, make this character playable, I want only to control him and kick some SERIOUS MOFO ASS!!!!!
"Yer, ladyship." I love this character already and he is one of the biggest reasons why I bought Vesperia. Ever since I saw that bit where he fired an arrow at an assassin I was just like: I COULD BE THAT GUY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Minus the arrow. I just like his unkempt demeanor and how he treats people so far. It really clicks with me and I didn't find that with any RPG character yet, neither in Eternal Sonata or Lost Odyssey). If I did Cosplay, which I think is a lame hobby since it's just like Halloween without the candy (what's the point, man, what's the point without the candy? Forget the costumes, just gimme some f'ing candy, brah!).
Rita is a great addition to the cast too. I love her spunky attitude! Estelle is just too goody two shoes and innocent for my tastes. Rita is a blast to see in action! "Great, watch out, here comes our Amazoness." says Yuri to Raven.
Yuri is a great main character too. Sure, he's out for justice in his own way, but he's so cool and such a jerk that I already like him more than Kaim (Lost Odyssey) and Allegretto (Eternal Sonata). However, Yuri is NOT as cool as Jansen (Lost Odyssey) or Chopin (Eternal Sonata). Nor does he hold a candle to Joker (Mass Effect). Not yet atleast, but he is growing on me and the game is just, I don't know, it keeps on bringing me back to it. I'm still waiting for it to just blow up in my face like a can of awesome worms, but again, it feels like it's just about to start getting there. Who's the main bad guy? Is it the dragon rider? Is it someone else? Is there even a main bad guy? What are these guys fighting against? And why on Earth is Tales of Vesperia the only RPG I have played that actually starts with an explanation of why there are monsters in this world rather than simply putting them in the game?
Yuri, Repede, Estelle, Karol, Rita and soon, hopefully Raven, all have great chemistry together. I'm really enjoying the way the characters are interacting with one another. It reminds me of Gears of War (the original not that stupid, pathetic excuse of a sequel) and how Delta Squad constantly chattered and developed the characters. I'm really enjoying seeing these guys together in action. However, the story is probably going to take forever. While Eternal Sonata was a tightly, TIGHTLY focused game that took you down it's story with no filler at all, just taking you through the story in a 20-30 hour game, Tales of Vesperia is going on a much more epic scale compared to Eternal Sonata's intimate tale. Basically, 8 hours into Eternal Sonata and the $--- had already hit the fan. 8 hours into Tales of Vesperia and the fan isn't plugged in yet and the $--- is still being excreted. It's probably going to be about the same type of game as Lost Odyssey where even 30 hours into the game you still received new party members where as in Eternal Sonata after a while, you had just about everyone there is to have.
We'll see how it all turns out, but I'm getting so excited to play this game. Hopefully it's as good as Eternal Sonata and Lost Odyssey by the end, because it's pretty good right now, but I can feel it: this game is going to get exciting fast. ...And I hope I'm not wrong on this because feeling this kind of build up is just too fantastic! ![]()

Bioshock is also a praise-fest by n00bs. And that only happened because it was the first game of the big year-end ones to be released when it came out. I'm glad that I made this awesome irrefutable point.
I am pretty hawt. Thanks for noticing.
Great blog! I look forward to the next piss poor one.
Eternal Sonata is a tightly focused JRPG that lasts 20-30 hours? If realized that awhile ago I would have played it by now! You may know that my main problem with RPGs is that they are all way too long to play though once. I prefer tightly focused games rather than games that throw everything in, including the kitchen sink.
On the topic of this tagging crap, I completely agree. I mean I know it's all in harmless fun but it's generally mostly just irritating and pointless and was probably spawned from the tepid depths of myspace or something just so some scene kid can be like LOL LOOK I STARTED DAT FAD!1111
As for the fact that NeonNinja is the real deal, I tell you that he is. He is at his best on his blog and at his sublime worst in the tavern.
Great,"enlightening" stuff though!
Hmm, probably not. Due to the fact that I've been up to me nose with coursework and such, I haven't bothered to check in a long time.
That, I haven't use the bathroom either. I know, it's weird right?
