Just Found Out Pregnant Quotes And Sayings

traps left behind notes

Another one of those weeks where nothing impresses special. Although you get to hear again and again how precious and unique each day for itself and It could be the last, that in its sooo short, but nearly a century has full life. I have to opportunity to ask an undead, he sees with the special nights. And when Demon's Souls in the EU comes out.

The Fellowship of a rogue
The North Downs disclosed for Azumas of Gondor! a lot of tasks that was designed for a group of companions. In the beginning, tried Azumas to ignore this and implored (run away), his survival instincts out, many hours racked by candle light the head of sophisticated tactics, but in the end he was bundled from 3 trolls in a viscous mass and bowled out of the woods. He did what any Rogue would do good, and rode away, while the trolls were allowed to exercise their artistic activities of the Menschdeformung continue. But wherever Azumas of Gondor! was, in the end was and remained tasks he could not solve alone ... but there appeared a flash of inspiration: the names of its functions appeared in a 4th Wall erupting box next to him again and again, what would happen if he were to sign up? And so Azumas
joined the Fellowship, a random group of ethnic groups and different specializations. What all had in common, however, was that they performed exceptionally more than Azumas, The latter did little more with emptying the pockets of defeated enemies. Of course, the support that each fellowship was the bard. Guardian, Champion or guardians were the Kopfhinhalter, while hunters and Rune-keeper, the opponent still worked ugly. For slightly more control you could call a trainer. While Azumas yet tried a companion combo to start, was his goal and the next is already dead and the companions would check in on the next Elite Master already.
In a few days had Azumas of Gondor! defeated the trolls, humans, dwarves and elves gathered in Dol DINEN Esteldin and started to transform into a holiday camp. In particular, the attachment of the bad guys in Dol DINEN was impressive, more than 12 see companion in 2 or 3 groups by beating the trolls was so heartwarming that Azumas sometimes waived the robbing of the pockets to maybe, possibly even in the fighting right there behind to be there. Of course, in most cases Azumas killed by a hunter goal midway.

Money Money Money
After the discovery of exploitable people thanks to the auction house Azumas assets grew rapidly. Currently, nearly 4 gold in his pocket, he decided to sell all his good irons. As a master in the iron-gold work he needs to finally no longer kreeiren any weapons, can only bring about its world view expressed. Everyone knows that art is only sold if it has made a name for himself. Therefore, it reduces the rich ore deposits in the North Downs in order to later bring a candy bar with the Azumas quality seal to the people.
But his plans do not stop at this point, after a forced march to Rivendell, he added a few more business ideas. Aragorn, who grew increasingly excuses why he can not be found to the north and now lived in a dwelling metrosexual, Azumas commissioned from Gondor! trying to repair a legendary sword. allow a legendary sword that access to a sunken Auqapark would. Any sympathy for Azumas was lost, when he also errands was ordered between Aragorn and the elves, as they probably pushed the postman in Rivendell in the madness and now need another victim on breaking its not subliminal sexual messages. In any case, on the sales list of Azumas addition to the ring from the Hobbit and the legendary sword of Aqualand is registered, that should be converted into gold for his efforts.
Even after he retired from Rivendell, his morale was limited: "Images of perversion - Moral deduction of 50 for a life".

not play Monster ...
In LOTRO you can purchase over the fate of an XP bonus points, and that I had made of them. At each level rise gave some destiny points, more could be earned in the "Monster Play". This is the PVP in LOTRO, where you can play the role of evil aka orcs, Wuffi, spiders, and even more Orcs and receives PVP objectives destiny points. I would not call just for PVP lovers, but for the XP boost I was willing to try out the whole thing ... just try out.
After selecting his class, you start in Ettenmoors, where one is from his quest givers repeatedly called a grub. Rewards are the destiny points for quests like "Collect 10 items from the slime slime things," is being rewarded, of course, the killing of heroes with points. My character was "Wuffbash" a Warg, whose playing style similar to the rogue class. My first attempt was to collect mucus interrupted by 3 heroes short and painless. be here mentioned that it's as bad Chara LV60 starts, but has only 5 skills. 5. Of course, no equipment, which must be paid for by destiny points only. So much to plan for quick points for PVE. Next I noticed that many heroes camp very close to the rogue base and of course with their superior skills and equipment to farms as it were the new villains. With stealth I Wuffbash with a hunter and a critical attack to isolate, but he never lost even a tenth of his life bar, stunnte and killed me without any problems. I saw myself in a majority of heroes in CoV PVP against, but as I was never a chance. Of course, the local chat infantile and full of adolescent insults to the PVP Ambiance capture could.
verdict after brief trials PVP: When my hero himself are high enough, I'll farms destiny points for rogues.

from the PS3 dimension
Many disappointments came from the PS3 dimension in recent weeks. Bayonetta, the highly stylized action game about Sarah Palin was available as a demo on the Japanese Store. Barely started, already the first warning came on the screen: "This game is ported by Sega. See, the game looked completely washed out, reflections from smooth surfaces is not available and textures were terrible. A comparison with an XBox360 video showed a clear difference in graphics. The feeling was very good, a development of Devil May Cry series, so to speak. Unfortunately, with such a lack of technical implementation Bayonetta is withdrawn from the buy list, a decent port probably should be expected of a publisher like Sega.

Brutal Legend shown his true colors as a light RTS with a solo campaign of 6 (!) Hours. It was also announced that in November (!!!) new multiplayer maps available for download would. A multiplayer game with a small solo Campaign that was marketed as a solo Hack'N Slash with multiplayer. I will not lose many words and refer to the execution in Yahtzee:
appeared

Demon's Souls, the PS3 exclusive is Fantasy RPG now in North America and has a good rating cleared after another. Although not my favorite genre is fantasy, I speak the gloomy picture on the game world. The hard-hitting consistency in the fighting, where an error lead to the death of charas and you must win his soul is "old school" hard as I have not seen for Devil May Cry third The online feature where you can infiltrate the world of other players to steal their souls or to help them, for Beneficial functions of a once Multiplayer in a solo campaign (I'm looking at you Brutal Legend). Review the attached one can see that the multiplayer aspect was integrated technically tolerable story and the atmosphere does not suffer.
The really bad thing is now that this game does not appear in Europe. Traders from China have sold out the game in the States, I am still a cheap import, and I doubt whether it does the multiplayer at all. The servers seem to be bound for the region Noramerika, I would play with my U.S. account, which I do not like to. There remains only the hope that sometime next year maybe the game also comes out in Europe. Hurm.
Video Games required). Even more difficult group quests like driving a senile version of a forest full of trolls, elves could cope with the unlikely duo easily. A small talk eventually led an uncomfortable truth: Azumas was kind of broke. The next big goal, a horse with LV35 would cost 4 gold pieces. But Azumas is a villain and not a stockbroker, and so was his current status with some 200 silver to shame as he could do nothing to wander further. He also ran to the nearest auction house, and his superfluous goods purely to completely overpriced, hoping he would wake up the next morning with pieces of gold under his pillow nichtvorhandenem. In addition, he received today a milestone of a contract: From 150 Wuffi beaten to death he would get a badge for a port Bree! Wargs are true miracles of nature, not only that they provide robust skins for weapons Azumas handles and leather clothing, no, they give XP, and soon Port. In any case, everyone should Wuffi avoid the rogue with the club for the next few days. Home Sweet Home
Azumas of Gondor! is so strong come ahead with plans for the future, he also went the same look settlements. Following the idea of an idyllic little house with great views, he attended the dwarf settlement in Thorin's Halls. A snowy little corner he wanted to see, but he was in a cursed mountain, where everything was dark and dwarfish. At last he found a small, somewhat remote area with snow and pine trees: Storm Strasse 4 in the settlement of Thorin's Halls! The luxury apartment of 7.5 gold skillfully ignored, he wanted to break into the hut ... enter and found that this was sold to a LV60 armorer dwarf who came out jumping straight out of the apartment. Quick Azumas went in the opposite direction and acted as if he were searching for snow saber-toothed tiger. He slid off derAnhöhe and broke the legs again. More in-depth studies have shown the broker later that this road is sold out in all settlements. Hurm. With the Dwarfs So nothing further inspections will be incurred in the boring Breeleuten, to calm the hobbits and elves metrosexual. And, search criteria are secluded, with good views, neighbors should be bearable to be far away. City of Meh going Rogue new information for my first MMO let gabs on the Hero Con, which celebrate the Devs of Paragon Studios their game from the gaming community, which had to shell out quite a lot of money for the Con. A Power Point presentation with information about the upcoming paid expansion was presented to land thanks to the networked minds of today's youth on the same day on Youtube. Warning, the video also documented the appalling conduct group of nerds Teamspeak and why a NO GO for me.

I let go and show mercy to the features mentioned only briefly mention one without that (counting 2010) with just under 3 years had a new engine to tinker. Oops, I did it again.
The Good: The Master Mind Set
summoner will not be a set of stolen together FeuerImps and Behemonts, but something new. The legends agree to dynamic lighting and CoV looks a lot better. Water and mirror reflections are nice. The Paralellwelt War Walls has no longer really seems to be a complete coherent world to be. It even starts with a choice of sentiment in the neutral Tutorial Präetoria ... finally new content. These new groups of enemies. Content from Lv1-20 found in Präetoria, then you can to Paragon or on the islands.

The Bad:
character detail looks the same. No new animations, only Spieglungseffekte to shine armor and goggles. No new animations. New graphics options "Ultra" is the timely need high end graphics cards ... Dynamic lighting, shadows and Spieglungseffekte, seriously? And oh yeah, no new animations. The forces in the video shown to Dual Pistols miss the coolness of Gun-Fu and a "Wet syndrome produce where the lack of normal movement in the cool moves in 5 minutes supersaturated.

The Ugly:
Release Q2 2010. Although the economically best placement for a MMO expansion August / September, I question the target group of this extension. Winning new players will not be easy, as LOTRO, WAR, AoC or AION have set the video standard so high that hardly is Going Rogue "Flashy" appear. In order for the current player base seems to bring something "new," the effort to be relatively high. Also, there will be no more major updates until the release of Going Rogue, as resources priority is certainly in the expansion. Who in the next 3 / 4 years of CoX not come off, it will not do so if the game is replaced with PONG.
The beta phase will start next Year run, with long-time veterans shall have precedence. All in all, I have exactly one free slot and summoner has just taken the lead.

Dances with the Wargs

The greater time gap since the last post is an ominous line, which kept me from the games into the alphabet soup?
other games.

Never cross the streams

There are basic laws for the division of the Arts of a human being. My disinterest in Phsyik prevented the creation of a commonplace formula for recreational use, which would now have saved many letters from their digital tattoos. Fortunately, the German and literature lessons soporific enough so that (to) my REM sleep much Kafka, Schiller in response to the daily management given and I describe my story about the console gamers, who believed to be a PC player can.
"And suddenly you're playing an MMO! Yes, my enthusiasm for LOTRO formed into a three-priced reasonable "Shadows of Angmar", "Mines of Mui Mui" and the coming in December "Besiegeung of Mirkwood" went for $ 60 on the digital counter, with the same moment "Dragon Age: Origins" of the holy To Buy list has been banished forever.
rotated the same time, since early October in the NBA 2K10 monolith, where I MY PLAYER Mode on a wonderful love-hate experience the adventures of an aspiring NBA could simulate Wannabe stars. The result was two time-consuming fun objects that collided on the same timeline and the rookie led the basket rings.
on to Gondor! Azuma (s) of the Rogue, is time-and spaceless astray, even in LOTRO first appeared in the crowd. He bravely fought his way through Middle Earth and had only one goal in his eye: Gondor! Unfortunately, it turned out after the visit with the Oracle of DAE VAS that Gondor was still out of reach for Azumas. Quarreling with his fate, he moved to the desert lands that were anything but lonely. Then he noticed that the card he rumgehalten wrong and had he continued his adventures in the far north, the North Downs. Logical. Muemeyyiz, Guardian of Rohan, went to the combined case. He had a better feel for its limits, and similar to a point forwards, he could dictate the game and even managed a group instance alone, when the Killsteal Tom "false beard" Bombadil ignored. In Bree Muemeyyiz submitted the offer to join the guild Drechsler, in Esteldin. On the card was a hint that this place could be anywhere in the North Downs. Thus began the search for the holy Muemeyyiz Drechsler Guild and is currently engaged in Tinnundir where friendly rangers him any useful information refuse to Esteldin.
Azragil, the old witch with the whipping stick, "help" from the lost land, in the recent period, Bill Wisse found no eyes and half-trolls with skull fractures. She swore off the bear and exercises are now back with the crow. In ancient scriptures it is looking for ways to contain their "Azragil of Mirkwood" Germanization. It's actually umverschämt how amusing this world can be, although I lack basic background knowledge and I zusammenfantasiere things (...). Who knows, maybe this is a fantasy game even desired. Again and again, the captivating images of nature in this game, along with the background noise and DirectX 10 Wasserphsyik they contribute tremendously to the atmosphere. Another reason why I consider myself than street and my breaks in larger settlements are as short as possible.
something I have trouble with the Looterismus, too much stuff accumulates in the 5 (!) Bags and must be sold. Clothes do not look as cool as their statistics can suggest. The card is more than daring in their delineation, and woe to the task that lies outside the detected area. Fortunately, the crafting is very atmospheric and motivating, I produce very effective in my own arms and spread them through the postal system.
targets for LOTRO? First I let Mue and Azumas a fist fight without Shirt and shoes unsubscribe, the winner can enjoy a rapid rise in level. Gondor long term, to be found, even if all the invisible walls must be investigated.


Lets NBA! My point guard played for some time successfully in the D-League, and after a monster game with 20 points and 14 assists in 25 minutes, he got a 10 day contract with the Portland Trail Blazers! My first NBA game at TD Banknorth Garden by the Boston Celtics, upcoming Hall of Famers such as Paul Pierce, Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett had been my enemy. Nervously on the bench I was waiting for my substitutions, which occurred only in the third quarter. There I was, wide grin on the field, the commentators mentioned in passing my first gig and focused their comments back to the stars. When I saw my first with a lay-up 2 points to the attention of the commentators duo sent back to me. I would certainly be a star, but if I use my small role in the team well, I could perhaps longer exist in the NBA ... we'll talk again when I hold the trophy in our hands ...
The game was lost, the home Celdicks were clearly favored by the refs. Now I find myself with the Portland Trail Blazers in the fight for good Playoff places, I would be on the whim of the coach as blasting playmaker or as a substitute. At least I get relatively much playing time.

of MY PLAYER mode is addictive, but this feels like still in beta phase. Many bugs as the restriction to 5 minutes quarters, inbound and AI problems with many half-court Violations drag down the realism. On a patch from 2K is working, it is called 2 weeks before the release. I will be more intense after the patch take care of my goals is to take the title in the first rookie to season.


Coffee & TV The really bad thing about this merger is that the second Stafel Twin Peaks was still not under surveillance at an end. Or the disappointment of Public Enemies is uncommented. Meh.

Wackers Pet Shop Dublin

Rookie of the (basket) rings

Actually I wanted to summarize some news that had Last week games give technical. But the fate lies they grow "some" to such a heap, peppered with such dilemmas, I just push the blame on the wrong constellation.


The Postman always rings twice

disbelief I looked at the rather large box that was held together somewhat hastily with black tape at the critical points. The letter was glued by Games World, a gaming site, where I enjoy the competitions durchlicke by me. A few years ago, I was incredibly lucky and won "God of War 2" for the PS2. This was in addition to a Black Forest cake the local Migros the coolest thing I had ever won. Until today.
The content was a Halo ODST Xbox Elite bundle. So the content discussed an Xbox Elite, a Bluetooth headset, wireless adapter, a controller, a year Xbox Live Gold subscription voucher and the two most recent Halo games. The moment when I should smile?


why I do not want children right now. An unwanted baby is still wrapped in the corner, unsure what should I do now. First, I had shocked my PS3 console, and then I tried each person in the household who wondered about my un-lucky to turn the package ... of course without success. Opinions were made known, I should but on Ebay ver .. up for adoption. Other voices that I have this incredible opportunity, I never have to bother about exclusives perceive should. A snake whispered even to the possibility of piracy, so that would be an open game world without financial barriers. Just because the problem was that I had never liked apples, they always had a sour aftertaste. It was like on birthdays: the surprise of a gift and the next thought on how to get rid of it. quarrel and I still hesitate, we'll see when I will come to a decision. Here's to the star sign Libra.

My Name is Nobody

City of Villains and his Addon had this weekend (starting Thursday, ending Tuesday morning server maintenance), a double XP event, where the inactive accounts were allowed to login. A great way to meet again in love with with friends, to level with joy and to chat. Who would reject even the big trains offer from NC Soft?
I logged on Thursday night and then again Sunday afternoon, probably my shortest double XP event. It was very strange to play, on the one hand, it was wonderful to experience something with the Divas Live Action. On the other side was my old friend to melancholy, when I log on my rogue characters: My former SG was really great at the end, no one more had been logged out from my inactivity. Changes to the site of the chars for offline badge to make me a feeling of necrophilia, I should have left on their 168 days old graves rest. Desperate attempts to do with the now only the shadow of a Main Team Action ended after a few missions in the self-loathing. The cyborg who once was a ninja, broken in every way, then broke the fourth wall of reality and had seen that there is no button more could make his metallic body parts alive. A broken mirror, the shards could pick up no more. This was trembling hands together no longer, too long, they had the Attempt to bleed ... now only the scars of the pain locked away are left. Oh sweet melancholy, the coffee with or without milk? A long-time companion
summarized the state in terms that did not bring my secretive nature come about: The game was old, and it was good. It was the same game that had given us many hours of entertainment. The adventures were experienced, staged the drama and separated the thread of destiny at the end. Who would miss a corpse a new make-up? madman words short, I would put my money on CoV second Larger team more resources may sound great, but the cart has been set very much rust. When I need to read that one of the architects mehr als ein Jahr entwickelt hätte, und ähnliche Aussagen vom Handarbeitsfeature des Kräfteanfärbens kommen, so stelle ich mir die Frage: Wieso zur Hölle baut ihr nicht gleich eine neue Engine? Kauft was ein, wenn das Know-How fehlt, von mir aus sogar die Unreal 3 Engine. Das bei dieser Variante noch weniger Content als freie Updates rausgesprungen wären, also eine Reichsmann TF weniger, hätte ich zähneknischernd in Kauf genommen... meh. Kurzer Check: Nichtwahrhaben, Zorn, Verhandeln und Depression. Wann genau sollte die Akzeptanz kommen? Doch ich solle nicht zweifeln und geduldig ertragen, ein Game Update wird mit Going Rogue kommen. Die Frage ist, ob irgendjemand überhaupt möchte, dass das "gute Alte" replaced.


White Men Can not My latest acquisition RPG - ok, simulative sports reality called
NBA 2K10
. Yes, I can not exist without the basketball. And if approved, Uncanny Valley is greeting this year, but the animations they've managed this time. In addition, this game starts the microcosm of the American Basketball League wonderfully Everything sparkles in the star dust, the players seem to fly, the matches consist of titans like Shaq or Lebron like kings, where each time a new star could be born ... Here the buyer of the game are meant. A new feature for the first time at basketball games, can that You can tinker his character and start an NBA career! Highly commendable one is after creating the basketball player (complete with appearance, skill points and selectable motion sequences) with the stick of reality brought back from the stars: You start as a nobody in the summer training camp. Only in 6 training games must point out that one of the basketball gods is worthy of an NBA team and perhaps, under special circumstances, get a 10 day contract (in the world of work known as the kick-in any time trial period). But in my pitiful case of a somewhat small (1.80 M!) playmaker who has everything a little, but nothing can be perfect, the sky closed doors! Since each game reviewed by a virtual trainer, and I was considered too inconsistent (quote: Your nickname is now louse, because you have so many lousy games), I was long and deep and the Development League (D-League) . As a fallen angel I tackle now skill points and hoping for a pity that my prayers up there and I heard again be able to attend a training camp of a team. My five minutes of heaven.
A detailed review will follow, as I have only been testing the My Player. So far I am very happy with the product. A good basketball simulation with a brutal career mode, not everyone is just a unique snowflake.

LOTRO - The Return of the Stalker

A Lotro trial I had to install before trying about a year because some people were COV in this direction on migration. But tell me this very lovely installer left with 4 separate parts, which wanted to merge zusäzlich with an extension that does not grow my charity for PC to play. lot of water flowed down the river, and the top diva of divas could successfully resuscitate my interest (here again great praise for their great contributions!). Miracles happen again and again, and after a brief account at Codemasters I got served an installer that made his work automatically ... a publisher is learning from mistakes? Installation and activation of the trial subscriptions ran I checked for security problems and the weather, whether it was raining frogs. I could not resist the temptation to tinker and me a rogue, Azumas of Gondor! After a few settings for my torture Graka watched the game also fantastic (for an MMO). Here and there, disturbing pop ups distant objects and screws it down, the textures of distant objects, but probably prevent this suicide of my chest. Here is a screen of of the magnificent landscape, the shadow computation is yes to love!






The first impression is very positive, the atmosphere is just right. Ok, my knowledge of the universe is on the films Lotro limited. It is similar to "The Witcher", the world is not cluttered with kitsch fantasy, where you present your arrows and elves ... want to do things. Only the quests I do not think straight as a rush for the senses, I died inside when all the young women and wolves-killing quests. Why do not bears and ... Elves? And there was a spider cave in which I lost ... I came out as Azumas, spider enemy. But no way is too long, no woman too pretty to slaughter when Azumas denies his difficult path to Gondor with ugly colored leather shoes! (Azumas first reaction when he marked his starting point on the map and then finally saw Gondor was: "I need a horse. ") The Skillset the Rogue has not been surprising, I just hope he stays solo capability. Currently, LV11 and landed in Bree, Azumas tries from Gondor! find his gorge quests. And raise more color, things look dire from.

Illegal Horse Sucking

You can not always get what you want ...


The Beginning Is The End Is The Beginning My First Contact with consoles can be archaeological to the Super Nintendo and trace the original Game Boy out of the last century. With the acquisition of Playstation1 Then followed a Sony Dynasty, which was manifested through to modern times with my money devastating PS3. The intellectually and technically in every must respect the superior alien race of PC Gamer I attach so quiet the "Konsolero" star player jacket.
much to my background. The ubiquity of the computer should not be denied, finally, the continuous progress of technology hardware and software, a samsara, the birth, every game production is in the belly of the Deva computer. The consoles are so therefore nothing more than limited Asuras ...?

Yes, the transition from the surgically precise keyboard + mouse control to a two-handed, analog stick controller term evolution. Replacing the upgradeable at any time by a magic box technolgisch antiquitare, tightly sealed freezer is ... Evolution, baby. The simplification to lie face down on the couch and browse to either game, movie or music menu, while according to the package of food on the other side of the table du salon longs, is the current status of Homo sapiens.

"Console - The Next Generation" hope of Nirvana?

The next generation consoles from Sony and M $ are given for some time on the market, but is it loud wild rumors, a percentage of low proportion of people who have an age of high definition room still not welcomed with open arms should. What the distorted world view of the console giants miss is that the thumb thing from Nintendo called "Wii" has sold more than twice as much as the Playstation and box together. Shit happens. The PC failed God, unpopular as a joystick remote control in white, which speaks then ever for the brothers Cain and Abel? My
following more detailed explanations are to be on the PS3, XBox, I know only from a short Preview, this one may excuse me. Similarly, if subjectivity is accused of, I answer: Yes, the Xbox 360 is a metaphor for Cain. Let's fight.

Xbox 360 Elite,
~ 250 Avro : All the hardcore gamers of today need to kill

hardware

The spawn of the devil, Microsoft steals shamelessly in this elite version, the only real color in the universe: black. The Xbox is in general a PC on the medium high, which, in view of the market launch in late 2005 is not bad. The drive swallows DVDs and CDs and the now dead HD DVD format. The wireless controller is no different from the traditional big Playstation controller, depending on the habit will be one or the other are better. The Xbox controller can be connected via USB to the PC. The console itself is compared to the Playstation 3 noticeable loud. In addition, the console is pretty hot, in the past gabs a high failure rate "Ring of Death" due Überhitzungstod. At the elite should have the better. A large external power supply and no W-LAN Integrated double be listed as drawbacks. USB port is available.
software

appear in this generation, many games on Xbox and Playstation, exclusivity is not so present. However, there are significant differences in corporate strategies. Microsoft has few own (capacity) and buys game studios like exclusivity perform or even entire game developer and develop for Xbox and Windows PCs. Currently limits itself to extra content in games like Fallout 3, where the extensions are published only on the Xbox 360. For the PS3 to extensions year came later. A while ago Time there were rumors that Microsoft wanted to buy the leading software manufacturer EA ... talk about world domination. Another advantage of Xbox 360 games is the PC-like architecture of the console. For multi-platform games is the port to the XBox much easier and can thus be superior to the Playstation version, the differences in quality in recent years, almost no longer exist. Pure PC studios like Valve release from porting reasons, no PS3 games. important exclusive titles the Xbox 360 is the "kiddie shooter" Halo franchise and Gears of War Metzelorgie. The tendency of these games lies in the Western taste, so full of shooters and violence. Part Exclusive Games like the RPG Mass Effect appearing on the PC.

Online Features
Xbox Live offers a comprehensive online service with Teamspeak and zeitexlusiven demos for the Gold subscription fee. The Silver subscription is free, but the access to free content such as demos and some limited online multiplayer game can only play with Gold subscription ... So who loves to play online, you need the gold subscription. A store with erkaufbaren games is vergügbar, will be paid with Microsoft Points, the exact conversion to hard currency I do not know. Will be charged to credit card.

outlook for the future I do not trust M $. Their plans to conquer the console market are interrelated as a Damocles sword over the industry that was held back because of the economic crisis. A follow-console was rumored for 2012, but now they seem to have nothing new to 2015 in the West. The answer is FuchtelWii Natal, a controller-free concept for the console , which next year is expected. Technically innovative remains to be seen how the implementation looks like (so far were either demonstrations in clinical white spaces or the user
orange jumpsuits , d'oh contributed.) must Furthermore, we closely watch whether Microsoft can really swallow EA and a similar world conquest as the PC market will start.



PS3 Slim, ~ € 300
:
The courage to Matt monolith

The PS3 hardware was designed as a multimedia box, and even in the most recent reincarnation streamlined it inherits some features of the first Playstation 3 The drive is still Blu-Ray, 2 USB ports, 1 HDMI, digital audio, and Integrated double Netztteil. The console is a bit smaller and has become even quieter. I own the "old" 40 Giga model and because the volume is very low. W-LAN is integrated and, with the 120 giga hard drive a few games. Once the home network eingelinkt, you can use the PS3 to stream movies and music on your own PC
. External Hard Drives interface of PS3 can be connected and recognized by the USB, if they have FAT32. The PS3 recognizes the most popular formats such as DivX, unfortunately not the MKV format. DVDs can be scaled to 1080p, in Settings you can set the output format of the console to 540p, 720p or 1080p. The controller of the PS3 is wireless, to charge it is connected via USB to the PS3 or the PC. PS3 controller does not recognize the PC. The hard drive can be replaced relatively easily by an internal 2.5 inch hard drive. Because of the heat and noise, I recommend a dormant satisfied with 5400 revolutions in my PS3 a 320 Giga Samsung Plattte. weakness of the PS3 hardware, the Blu-Ray drive almost PS3 are all broken drive due. However, the failure rates are not high, my console has been running for more than a year without any problems * knock on wood * and acquaintances had only dead Xbox. software

Sony has some nice studios, which can bring out some nice exclusive productions specifically tailored to the PS3 architecture. This image references come out like Uncharted second Is made possible by a nuclear structure of the processor, which is both blessing and curse for the console. be programmed by the computing potential of her very high, must be specifically in this structure, which of course for the extremely hard-working computer programmer overtime. While technical exclusives Masterpieces are, we hear of multi-platform titles only bad words to program how difficult it on the PS3 was ... Mark the perfect pace for handkerchiefs.
Exklusititel are the strength of the PS3, game variety is offered: The tough RPG Demon's Souls
(not yet appeared in Europe * Heul *), epic Gehacke like God of War 3, FPS friends are served with Killzone 2, the interactive Film Noir Drama Heavy Rain is expected next year ... short, there is something for everyone here. The games are all region free, so you can import from every corner of the world game and it will run. The only danger seems to come from Microsoft's dollar bills, so that in some future titles appear later or not at all for the PS3.
A nice feature is a photo album that depending on the photos arranged by date, colors, motifs and tinkering a little slide. Because my camera can shoot HD pictures, I put most of the photos onto the PS3. Online Features the Playstation Network is free. You can use online games, the freely offer the Playstation Store offers additional content and smaller games for real money at. Will be charged by credit card. The contents of the Playstation Network is dependent on the country in which you specify in the registration of the profile. As an example, a German profile have no content that have been censored in Germany, while my Swiss Store has game demos of Resident Evil fifth The content (especially demos) can differ by region fairly, so I created 3 profiles: Switzerland, USA, Japan. Is indeed free the whole thing. The only downer is shopping with a credit card from the American Store accepts only Visa cards, because nothing goes with other cards. The European stores accept all cards.
Small but nice things: One, for example, some choose to download demos or videos, and the console as an option to go down after the downloads and installations are completed. Playstation Home is a "Second Life" with plenty of advertising space for several game companies ... Media Server on the local network be used eg to detect and watch movies. The Internet browser can somewhat lame, but Flash and DivX formats to play on the web. Youtube is not a problem, earlier gabs Hulu to Stream HD series from the Internet. Now the site is U.S. only, but who knows what other side is offering similar services in the future. Similar
outlook for the future like the PS2 is a Sony by a long life cycle. I expect full support until at least 2016-18, the console should age well technically and graphically not fall too far. It is working on a
FuchtelWii control that appears in the spring of 2010

and 3D games with the stereo glasses (and in future with 3D TV without) in development. What a strange future rumzufuchteln in 3D glasses with a glowing dildo in front of the TV ... Yes, just evolution.


Conclusion: Godzilla vs.. King Kong - The eternal struggle
Both consoles are, of course, the HD games, but they differ in price and demanding standard: While the Xbox 360 for the current dragons offers everything you need, the PS3 is a bit more of everything, but without real benefits have to. My combo from a relatively game-capable PC and the PS3 goes on well: Games I prefer the PS3, Xbox 360 exclusive titles like Mass Effect I can use on the PC. Movies and music are on my uniform PC, external hard drive and the PS3 divided. Those who have no powerful PC can buy for the relatively cheap price, a PC game called Xbox 360, but must be subject to charges the additional costs such as the online service be aware of. Unfortunately
out the new desgin of the PS3 Slim to the loss of momentous symbolism, the gloss paint on the old PS3 models could be wonderful leave his fingerprints ... although touching the monolith was of course forbidden, the controller is opened to the console there.

Blue Prints For Wedding Arch

Sur (r) realism in the living room: "Next generation" consoles

Yesterday was the last Brutal Legend Demo on the Playstation Network, and after a short download and installation time (1.6 Giga!) I was a first Impression of the highly anticipated game from Tim Schafer Heavy Metal do.
Dat Intro A video is worth a thousand phrases, very funny I think. I played the demo in German and English and the English language edition is better quality by far. The German Synchro has half-heartedly, Eddie's voice is spoken by the German Synchro Brad Pitt (?). In addition, the background noise seem to have been implemented much worse than the English original, shoddy work EA!
So moved the console quickly in English, one can enjoy the English language edition with Jack Black as Eddie. In the options there is also the Option to turn subtitles. Even during the intro will be asked if you want to be the bad words or leave auspiepsen. Is a question of taste, depending on whether one is a squeak or the word Fuck (with all its creative extensions) is annoying. In addition, you can leave the Gore or falling Edison. This has major consequences, since the videos are censored at one (the intro for example, dropping the tape off the heads, or not) and Blood +, the mutilation is turned off in the enemies. As the violence is therefore more a wink, I find the bloody version better. Commendable also is that in the options at any time the grades and the subtitles switched on, snapping, and can.

Gameplay - Hack n Slash Light
watching the apparently fatal accident in the intro to Eddie in a strange ceremony where he was suddenly attacked demonic priests. From this point you take over the control of Eddie and must play the first level. It occurs to me: no jump button. What the hell, an action game without a jump button ... but we'll talk more in control. The first action is to take the battle ax in the middle of the room and hack priest. With the X button is hacked, more pressing leads to a small combo, but not really varies in strength and speed. If you hold down the button longer, leading Eddie a long jump like animation and attacked a lot stronger than the typed attacks. Hardly used the ax, the game points to the altar in the room. On the altar finds Eddie playing a guitar and a little on it to discover that she misses from lightning. Gabs has in Devil May Cry 3, but still cool. Now the guitar on the square button and bring a little more variation: When you press the next best opponent of electric charge, a longer holding the key carries the opponent into the air by summoning a Feuerrring under his feet.
The round button is for blocking there, the obvious and slow attacks Eddie can block any time, no strong unblockable Attacks in the demo available. By holding down the X and square button performs a jump Eddie attack where he hits hard against the floor and caused a small shock wave, so that the opponent be flung into reach.
this attack lies in the demo, however, collapse the sanctuary and provided a first look at the outside world of Brutal Legend: a landscape created from bone, metal and fire, while thunderstorms were apparent in all possible color combinations in the distance. The altar was built on top of a mountain, consisting of bones of various monsters. On an Elephant-Giraffe mixture of a riding animal was therefore ne hot demon nun and immediately attacked the poor Eddie on. Also this fight offered no difficulties, the nun could summon together with a scream attack other priests, but did not survive too long. Eddie then grabbed the mount and climbed down so the bones mountain. Following an involuntary descent of Mount came back fighting sequences: Another battle with the priests followed, among them was a girl seen: Ophelia was one of the oppressed people of the heavy metal world and fought against the demons. Now they fought on the side of Eddie, with the triangle button you could perform combo attacks with her (she just threw in Eddie's enemies).


Why run when you can tinker NEN cart
On a body could take out his guitar and Eddie play like Guitar Hero with 4 key presses for a short distance. This conjured up a car show garage with lots of chrome (!) And Eddie tinkered times fast NEN hot carts. Then they went flat out through the legions of demons through, until the way is blocked by a huge gate words. Ophelia got up to open the gate, while Eddie was attacked by a giant worm with lip piercing. It was followed by a Boss Fight! The battle proved to be one of those puzzle bosses: learning the offensive scheme of a boss, uses the weakness and the rest of you is evasive. It was not complicated, Eddie revealed his identity and his sayings, when the monster attack and it was therefore easy to dodge. Finally, Eddie could defeat the monster and ended the demo with a small trailer on the full version.
What was that just now?
The too-brief demo, which was much too few features, but I could see some information about Schafer's basic idea. I must say first that the game has its own charm. The heavy metal world, and the soundtrack can be heard in the background always make ne really great atmosphere. The graphics in comic style is the excessive use of force rather humorous appear as repulsive. The fights are very simple, the difficulty low. Eddie has no health bar. As in shooters in fashion, the screen turns red after a few hits and you have a few moments are not taken, so that Eddie regenerated automatically. One can choose from 3 different difficulty levels: Easy
: The enemies die for simple cuts, I have not done it myself on it to go, even though the controller was put away for a minute.
agents: Opponents pretend that they would survive longer. Opponents not block, they do normal damage to die, if one puts away the controller for a minute.
Brutal: Opponents block and hand out more damage. However, no difficulty here to survive. I could not find that the Opponents stand it anymore. No additional difficulty found in the Boss Fight. The game is not for the hardcore Stylish Hack n 'Watch each enemy you kill with one blow of the "slasher type of player was designed. Eddie can not jump, but his blast attack has extremely easy opponent away from him. The important feature that you can command his own troops missing in the demo. So I think that the simple attacks by Eddie more in the line of a "Master Minds", and was later the unlockable upgrades and guitar and ax rather summon special attacks will turn the troops while his head.


conclusion of this Action Adventure Driving Tactical ... what the * * peeep Schafer??

Although the atmosphere is right, the first impression of the gameplay was "Meh." Then I got this
multiplayer video seen. The troops were huge, we had as a base to stage a variety of special attacks and 3 groups ... then I went on a light: This game is not an action hackers à la carte. Here, several ideas were kneaded together from various genres, and a devilishly hot baked Heavy Metal furnace, as the glaze Jack Black humor. We have Open World, with key objectives and side missions
a cart, you can tune the (arms and appearance)
weapons upgrades
troops to command a multiplayer mode in a haunted Game! And I would not be surprised if they had built even more things. Brutal Legend is refreshingly different, even if the ideas are not new or innovative. The demo was from her claim very simple, not overloaded, the control (no double occupancy). I repeat again, thankfully I am not a Heavy Metal fan, otherwise I would have ordered this fun game today * wink wink *. Big question mark for me is the playing time, as the reviews are sure to come for information, how long rock Eddie.

What Kind Of Apples Should I Dehydrate

Brutal Legend Demo Review

It is once again where a wave of high-class games to appear at Christmas and can shake the wallet of every gamer. The year 2009 seems to beat the releases from last year again, the PS3 is waiting with even more exclusive titles. My personal principles I try to keep this time too and I'll be able to purchase a maximum of 3 games. In order to facilitate decision-making something, I write down the lucky candidates in the hope that it will reflect less appealing and thus fall out from the shopping cart.

let the games begin.



September
Forever Katamari (PS3) Katamari
was already on the PS2 because of the simple game idea is very contagious and addictive. How it works, you control a "Katamari" a ball and roll over things. Smaller items will remain stuck and grow the ball, so that the greater the Katamari can roll over bigger stuff man. Each level has a default, how large should be the Katamari and thereafter
the Katamari
the king of the cosmos into a star ... it is from the makers of Noby Noby Boy.
impression: A lot does not seem to have changed, and the nearly full-price (80 CHF) leave me no choice but the game used to purchase or discount. Very sad, arise since even the intro

the wacky Katamari can feel.

Fifa 10 (PS3, PC, X360)

I this Generation have not bought a sports game, is pushing for a Fifa or Pro Evolution Soccer, so you can yell at each other at social events in the room. The demo for Fifa could not convince me, the animations look fake and are still the gatekeepers are simply incompetent.
impression: The hope dies last, next year is sure everything vieeel better.

Ha! The short of September is already survived with an empty shopping cart ... but it was merely the calm before the storm.

October
Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2, 01.10.09 (PS3, Ninja Gaiden 2 also X360)
The Ninja Gaiden series boast a Hack Slash deposits and extremely challenging difficulty. To me on a level with the Devil May Cry series, which currently testing only way his reactions at a high level on stylish way can. Sigma is actually a port of last year-old XBOX360 game Ninja Gaiden 2, but with additional features: revamped graphics, co-op mode, Extra Mission Ninja girls and adapt the difficulty in unfair places.
impression: My weakness makes it more difficult for Ninja games, to say no. In the demo, the camera problem (actually in most games of this genre) and the blood had been censored, now purple spray from any effects the chopped-off body parts. The game is "old school" extremely difficult, and opponents, do not allow for errors and force them to become better with the basics (Dodge, Block, Kill). From the first reviews can be seen about 13 hours playing time, which is relatively good. A feature must be mentioned yet: When you shake his controller, while the women play Ninja ...
typical Japan -_-I am still unsure of the full price, but must be taken sooner or later. Sooner rather, because Ninja Gaiden Sigma 1 I search in vain in the Grabbeltischen seems as if it were not in large quantities were shipped to dealers.


Brutal Legend, 14.10.09 (PS3, X360)

The legendary Tim Schafer (Grim Fandango, Psychonauts) brings out a new game, a Heavy Metal Adventure

. He has won many well-known voice actors like Jack Black or Ozzy Osbourne for the project, and how all of its games the whole thing looks extremely cool. impression: Luckily I am not a Heavy Metal fan, otherwise the thing in "Rocktober" bought. The game must be taken at any other time to cool is the concept, as it could be ignored.

Fallout 3 - Game of the Year Edition, 07.10.09 (PS3) The RPG with some of the apocalyptic mood was already on the PC fun, now comes a GOTY edition that raises the level cap to 30 and includes all the extra content ... for 80 CHF.
impression: I had brought the PC version, there were not offered on the PS3, the additional content. Now the GOTY is therefore cheaper than the original version. Although the temptation is great, I already know the contents of the PC version, and getting this for the PS3, when dawn broke again the game months.
Little Big Planet - Game of the Year Edition, October (PS3) The Jump N Run game with the copious level editor and the cuddly characters I wanted to get last year, now it is available for 50 CHF with additional costumes and levels already on the disc
impression: The highlight of the level editor was in the beta already very good, but playable own creations, it was time-consuming (and yes, my claim was, as always high). I decided that I could not invest so much time and pushed the acquisition to a later date. Although the price has now dropped, the offers of games this year have become bigger and I'm going to buy LBP at some time later. Sackboy promised.

NBA 2K10, 08.10.09 (PC, PS3, X360)
The same problem as in Fifa, only much worse: Basketball is my favorite sport, and unfortunately, we found no convincing game this generation. 2K10 brings the innovation of a career mode, which is its specially created player can simulate an NBA career, starting from player draft. 2K10 has better animations than NBA Live, and has realistic in terms Phsyik and defense. The passes are a bit lax over, usually played with one hand. impression: I'm waiting for the demo. The previously released videos look good, the Draft Combine Demo (to create a player and completed training games for the draft) was feeling good from basketball. When the trial convinced is purchased for full price.

Pro Evolution Soccer 2010, 27/10/09 (PC, PS3, C360)
The eternal enemy of the Fifa series is distinguished by realistic football, but lacked the Licenses that FIFA had. impression: The demo was poor, the series seems to be the direction of Arcade (game speed up) orient. No football this year.


Tekken 6, 28.10.09 (PS3, X360)
The Tekken series has long been Sony exclusive. I played both PS1 and PS2 this Whipper, despite its rather high quality as a Virtua Fighter, I found the fighting catchy. With the dollar bills coming from M $ now the latest offshoot simultaneously on PS3 and X360 (the PS3 version had to wait in January, finished, but had to) and brings along with new characters, wardrobe, where you can dress Whipper his heart's content. impression: As a Tekken fan "actually" a must buy, and "actually" would have to appear in January. The video has been polished to a high standard only, otherwise it is the old Tekken. I fit.


Uncharted 2: Among Thieves, 13.10.09 (PS3)
Uncharted is the Indiana Jones of the PS3. The first successful part (by me also yet to be purchased ...) scored with a sympathetic main character, witty dialogue and a great graphically illustrated jungle setting.
The second part provides more variety for the treasure hunter Nathan Drake and leads him to include South America and Tibet.
impression: Unbelievable but true, the picture has become even better and thus reference to the PS3. The Action Adventure seems to have a good mix of climbing, shooting action and stealth to have found a multiplayer has been added. The solo campaign is first reviews after 12 hours, but directed film ripe. The definition of a must Buys, I take my hat and I look forward particularly to the Tibet passages.

The Rocktoberfest brings Uncharted 2, perhaps ending the eternal basketball odyssey with NBA 2K10. Brutal Legend, Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 pass with a small tear. As if this were not enough punishment, comes ...

November

Assassin's Creed 2, 17.11.09 (PS3, X360, PC)

disappointed the first part because of the monotonous mission design and the battle system (with the counterattack won it all), the sequel sounds interesting:
Now, as an assassin in Venice
in the time of the great Leonardo da Vinci, one should have a greater variety of Fähgikeiten for the killing. Also, a economy system has been installed, you can buy better weapons with the gold, and also set mercenaries for his purposes. 3 cities, including Venice, should be freely accessible and climbing is. impression: It seems as if the first part was just the framework, and that it had expanded in the second part of every aspect. As promising as this sounds, 100 CHF are still steep, I will wait for the first reviews. Trust No One, especially if Jade Raymond
the whole "market".
Call of Duty 2, 09.11.09 (PC, X360, PS3)

The First Person Shooter of the Year, the meistgehypte game of the year,
a pure blood "killer game"
. Graphics should be better, even multiplayer, war scenario in these times even more real.
The Prestige Edition includes a night vision device. Japp, properly read, Killen is now also at night. impression shooter games are not my favorite genre. I am happy with my alien fascists in Killzone 2, and will probably not buy another shooter. Modern Warfare 2 is actually outside of everything, but there is this little magic word called Atmosphere.

Dragon Age: Origins, 18.11.09 (PC, X360, PS3)
The first RPG in the list (appeal rejected, Fallout 3 is from last year)! From the creators of Baldur's Gate and Mass Effect next RPG from Bioware is in the fantasy setting (unfortunately). 80 hours game will be bundled in there, marketing promises lots of blood, sex and rock (Marilyn Manson, uh).
impression: I loved Mass Effect, but Fantasy is not my thing. Maybe I'll get for the PC, if the price is something like.
Ratchet & Clank Future: A Crack in Time, 03.11.09 (PS3)
Aww ... Ratchet & Clank was one of the most colorful and most beautiful runs on Sony's console N Jump, now comes the latest branch .
Much can be said not to, you bet on altebwährte formulas. impression: The show is always a great change from the brown and trigger-happy playing today, and I'll get me for sure ... is not high Priorät, I firmly reckon with a Platinum Edition for 50 CHF in a few months. Saboteur, 25.11.09 (PS3, X360, PC)

An open world action adventure game from the third perspective to play a saboteur in Nazi-occupied Paris. Paris in the 40s sounds tempting, and the game mechanics, the game starts black and white and the further you Road districts may exempt from the Nazis, returns color, sounds interesting.
impression An Irishman as the main character , Nazis to kill, brothels and pubs ... Hide, all in Paris. Sounds very amusing and could be bought, but I will wait for the first reviews on the extent and game mechanics.
If anything hand holds festival, in November many longings like Assassins Creed 2, Dragon Age Origins or saboteur. Let us hope that the will is strong, because the wallet is weak. Standings: a title bought, moved many games in the future. Only in December, which may yet to come?


December
Gran Turismo 5, 03/12/09 (PS3)

Gran Turismo. The Real Driving Simulator. Like liquid glass on the eye, cars in its most superb paint. Damage model should be there.
In this trailer, they have reconstructed the even Bäreplatz in Bern. .. these pigs. impression: Well, I own the PS1 and PS2 parts, they provided many hours of racing fun. There is no way to buy this game NOT. Bye bye 100 CHF Hello undefined hours on motor humming noise from the living room.

only this title in December? Phew ... the end. Take a deep breath. Summarize. Fortunately Bioshock 2 has been postponed to next year, and Title like God of War 3 or Heavy Rain are Release 2010th No doubt I have distributed well over the quality of Uncharted and Gran Turismo, these are also periods in October and December. Batman: Arkham Asylum is currently considering all the attention, and I hope for a strong will to charge my purse with added really great games this year, not more.

Just do not touch the black monolith ....
