Just when we were getting accustomed to the name given to Halo 3: Recon, the kind people at Bungie decided to change it to Halo 3: ODST.  You are probably wondering what the hell “ODST” stands for.  According to Bungie, it stands for Orbital Drop Shock Trooper.  The ODST expansion will not drop until next Fall, so there’s no reason in the world to get excited yet.

I just finished “bashing” the Wii with my last article but now I have some good things to talk about. Many people are talking about Mad World coming to the Wii and they aren’t all happy about it. Some people think it shouldn’t be coming to a “family friendly” system. I say “to hell” with that notion. Freedom is a great thing and if they don’t like the game, don’t buy the game. It’s that simple. From what I’ve seen, Mad World may actually turn out to be a pretty good game. We’re certainly not looking at another rubbish title like ‘Manhunt 2′.

We’d like to know what you think about ‘Mad World’ so far. Is it a good thing it’s headed to the Wii?

I’m not sure what the hell is wrong with the editors of Vogue magazine, but they now have an issue out with Harry Potter (Daniel Radcliffe) posing buck naked with a horse. This isn’t the first time Radcliffe posed naked with animals and we’re honestly tired of it and think this whole naked with animals thing needs to come to a swift end. To make things even worse, this article in the magazine was written to help promote a play in which the actor simulates sexual ecstasy while riding a horse naked. So basically we have a 17 year-old (borderline child porn) in a play that involves animal love or “bestiality” as the pervs like to call it and somehow this is “ok” with everyone. Even though he’s probably too old at this point, I’d rather see Radcliffe to go back to doing Harry Potter or some non-zoophilic role that isn’t so disturbing.

What are your thoughts on the topic? Leave a comment below…

What the hell is ‘Cheetah Girls: Passport to Stardom’?.  I’m sure anyone reading this article will probably wonder the same thing.  Don’t worry.  I asked myself the exact same thing when I heard about the new Nintendo DS game hitting shelves tomorrow.  I assumed it had something to do with singing, dancing and fashion accessories and was somehow right.  

The game will include various songs from the Cheetah Girls movies.  Of course I’ve never watched any of them, so really can only go on what I was able to dig up with my Google-fu skills.  According to Wikipedia, the game will include the following features:

  • Play as Aqua, Chanel, and Dorinda as they dazzle fans worldwide with their music and dance coreography.
  • Explore 9 different locations as you perform in three international cities- New YorkBarcelona and Mumbai!
  • Use your Nintendo DS stylus to compete in a series of dance-offs to 10 Cheetah Girls hit songs!
  • Includes new music from The Cheetah Girls: One World Disney Channel Original Movie.
  • Includes DGamer- the new online community exclusively for Disney gamers.
  • Unfortunately there really aren’t any other games of note coming out this weekend.  It’s been a rather slow week in games anyway.  The only game of note coming out in the near future is Madden 09 on Tuesday.

    “In the end, there will only be chaos”

    Strong words from our favorite mythology hero, Kratos!  The trailer shows an overhead view of… well, Hell!  As you approach closer to the mountain you’ll see Kratos atop, with his chains and blades bounded to his arms.  This trailer shows a great in-game video, and was a brief teaser of what we can expect in the upcoming weeks.

    The Spore creatures keep rolling in this week.  The above creature definitely deserves some credit for being unique and creative.  It doesn’t really look like an eagle, but it’s definitely bird-like and makes some odd sounds.  Spore may be the single game this year that captures the most of our imagination.  The video clip was submitted to YouTube by TheSwordUser.

    I spend a good chunk of my free time watching random videos on YouTube.  This time I came across a video of some half-naked guy telling a strange story about the citrus industry, midgets, midget dating sites and such.  I watched it several times to see what the point of this video was, but I’m still clueless.  Who the hell is this Roy guy anyway?   We know he’s in the citrus industry and hunts ghosts, but I’m not sure if he even exists…

    This week, Adam Sessler discusses the racist homophobes we run across too often while playing games online. He’s right about the fact that it’s usually the young 10-year old gamers taking part in this and they are honestly ruining the fun of playing online. It’s gotten so bad in Halo 3 that I simply have it set up so the other teams are always on mute and I very rarely play with random people on my side. It’s sad that people are like this online. I have always felt like the anonymous nature of the internet brings the worst out of people. When it comes to the children acting like this, I’d like to know where the hell their parents are. When I was a kid, if I had used the language and racist terms these punks are using, I would have been beaten senseless.

    While skimming through YouTube videos, I came across one titled ”Accept Jesus and get a free Nintendo Wii”, so I had to check it out to find out what the hell someone could possibly post with that title.  The actual video is just a still image of a Nintendo Wii with the audio of a podcast running for slightly over 17 minutes.  According to the host of the podcast, there was a church in Florida offering a free Nintendo Wii to anyone who accepts Jesus and joins their church.  Who knows if the story is true, but it really wouldn’t shock me if it was in fact a truthful story.  Some of the religious discussions in the podcast are actually interesting.
