the rumor been around for some time now, but these are some great news for a lot of gamers beginning withcapcom releasing a new promotional teaser site:

http://www.tu4ar.com/

-tu4ar supposedly stands for "Take You For a Ride" which any mvc2 fan recognizes as a repeated line in the game's most annoying song, and the page features a countdown and a big "2" in the background. The countdown is set for 6 days as I write this, almost the amount of days remaining until CAPTIVATE '09, capcom's expo.

-the same website could be reached from this address: http://dev02.capcomusa.net/mvc2gmt/

-and check this, a new entry on the website xbox360achievements lists the achievements for a game called Marvel vs Capcom 2:

http://www.xbox360achievements.org/game/marvel-vs-capcom-2/achievements/

-what more? on the online store www.shopto.net there was a listing for the product "XB2MA11 - Marvel vs Capcom Tournament Edition Arcade Stick"; on the product's release info is stated "TBC" and on the product description: "Sorry, this product no longer exists in our database."

SO...it's pretty much confirmed! look forward to fight against some of you online soon!

So I'll go straight to the point: Crytek has released footage from it's new engine that's basically a version of CryEngine2 optimized for the next gen consoles at GDC2009. Here it is for you to enjoy and drool

Well, I found ebay! And I discovered the inherent addiction on the act of searching for things you don't quite need by you want to own to feed consumerism. Just searching for items and comparing the prices kinda fills my wallet-emptying desires.

So the thing is, there's a lot of games I never got to play or own back in the day, and there's lots of great business oportunities on ebay.

So this is to me an opportunity to get some cheap good games for the Xbox, since the 360 has backwards compatibility with most xbox games, and most of them are being neglected by gamers eager to get rid of them and earn some bucks.

I recently got Mortal Kombat Deception for the Xbox, I loved it on the ps2 but since I don't have a working ps2 no more I wanted to add it to my collection, and while wandering around here on gamespot I remembered that I always wanted Mortal Kombat Armageddon but I never got a hold of it and it is nowhere to be found where I live. so that took my ebay virginity. This must be how my sister feels when she's at the mall

I always wanted Guilty Gear X2 #Reload but it's 15€ on XBL, and it's not available on my zone either, so I got it for 10€ (5€+5€ for shipping). then I found what's the use of the Wishlist on gamespot, and I looked for Unreal Championship 2, and bough it!

Yesterday a friend of mine that's conveniently working on GAME (that's BelzebuVlad, add him!) texted me saying he had Halo triple pack for 9,99€ and Fahrenheit (Indigo Prophecy) for 4,99€!! so I got those as well!

A good sense of opportunity, some good friends and a money-spending beast inside me just enlarged my game collection for good. BUT...I just started the second semester of my second year at the university, and there's also resident evil 5 on the horizon...

That's it for this blog, I'm having Methods of Multimedia Conception and I'm bored. How are YOU?
