It must seem a while since I last posted hey? Yeah well, I appologise for playing too much WoW now..hehe it gets addictive some times...Anyways today I went on gamespot.com as usual and I found out that Konami was celebrating the 20th anniversary of Metal Gear. That is one big event because there were multiple new Metal Gear titles announced. One of which I am really excited about is Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops+, even though I have the original MGS port, I would still buy this just for the new contents included. But the highlight of the event must be the 15 minute playable demonstration. The video was kinda dodgy for me since I have a really bad connection so every 10 - 20 seconds the video needs to buffer. But that didn't stp me from viewing what I regard as the most intense gameplays I have even seen in video games. I am serious. The explosions, sound effects of bullets flying through the battlefield...it was AMAZING. And from what I saw in the video, I am 100% certain and have come up with some ideas why Metal Gear Solid 4 Guns Of The Patriots will REMAIN PlayStation 3 exclusive.

1. During the video, Old Snake takes out the Mk. II., he is holding a PlayStation 3 controller to "control" the Metal Gear. If it is NOT an exclusive for PlayStation 3, why would they need to spend time creating an action where you see Snake controlling Mk. II. with a controller? If they were going to make it multiplatform, then they would be likely to change the controllers right? That's just pathetic then.

2. As Kojima was talking about the First Person persepective and how players are allowed to play through the game like a FPS, in past Metal Gear Solid titles, we are able to view in first person view, though we weren't allowed to move Snake simply because there weren't enough controls. I mean the analog stick was already for viewing and turning the camera angle, how can you move? Then Kojima explained that to turn the camera angle in this sequel, it is done by usuing PlayStation 3's SIXAXIS controller. Without it, the FPS feel would not be added in.

Well, whether you agree or not, I am certain Metal Gear Solid 4 Guns Of The Patriots will not go multiplatform, if they were going to do it, Kojima would have announced it during the Microsoft Press Conference or at the Konami booth (if there were booths anymore) during E3. That's all I have time to post so..I'll catch you later and from what the people at IGN.com said about it, You might not believe us now, but mark our words, you will buy Metal Gear Solid 4.

Hey guys, been almost a month since I last posted...hehe wasn't very long when you look back. Anyways, yes I have finished my exams...did pretty poor I guess. I thought I would have gotten higher marks, but seeing as the "smart people" did slightly better than me, I was ok with it later. Well, the past couple of weeks are like a rollercoaster ride. Had exams from Tuesday 22nd - Friday 25th. But exams still went on for the others so I had like 3 days off the next week. Went to see Spiderman 3 and pirates of the Caribbean 3 with my friend on Monday (FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!). Both movies weren't as good as anticipated or as the hyped up, but I thought they both did a really good job maintaining the themes. I liked Spiderman 3 better because there was Venom and the black suit, awesome character. Cannot believe they made such a cool character as Spiderman's nemesis. Anyways, pretty bored after the 3-day "study leave" because I went back to school on Thursday but we didn't do much work, just got our results back. Now today, which is Monday, is a public holiday so no school. Tomorrow would be camp, so I won't be at school for the whole week! Man talk about holidays! You think it's confusing? Yeah well try and go to school like me. almost every week for the past 2-3 weeks I had a break. Lol but unluckily, after camp there are still 3-4 more weeks before the holidays. Hope I can manage to finally refocus and go back to school as usual. And don't play as much video games as I did the past few weeks....lol...ok later guys, talk to you when I get back. @kiz out!

Hey, how's life? I've been busy the past couple of days so I didn't really have time posting anything. Well, exams are coming up in about 2-3 weeks and I'm starting to study while all my friends are out there partying and stuff. They all went to see Spiderman 3. I wanted to go, but my mum didn't let me...All I wanted was a break from studying and go watch Spiderman 3...Now that I can't go out, Spiderman 3 is just what I think about all day and nothing really seems to get into my head while I study. And now I'm pissed. Especially when my bro is not coming back, that means no PlayStation 3...again. But tell you something, the other day while I was talking with my bro on the phone, he told me that if I get all A's in my exam, PlayStation 3 is all mine. Pfft..I thought, I'll never get all A's in my exams...I'd be happy if I even get any A's for one of my subjects. But that is what really keeps my motivation to study hard right now..hahah...If I do get all A's, I'd be really happy. Anyways, next few weeks I  may not post anything as well since studying is all I can do now..meh, for that PlayStation 3, I'm in for the deal.

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