I don't think we've met.

My name is Puppy Potato. I link to me in my blogroll.

Anyway, for my first review, I will review Sega Superstars Tennis.

WHAT THE HELL, SEGA??!!??!!

First of all, let me say that Sega Superstars Tennis is the worst game that I have ever played in the last year. They made everybody except the characters from Super Monkeyball look and sound retarded, and the superpowered move that you do except for Sonic's sucks, and it's totally boring. Just like regular tennis, only with stars underneath everybody, and Sega characters.

Second of all, They gave Beat (from Jet Set Radio Future) a line. He's not supposed to have a line. He's only supposed to say grunts and "Yeah!" and all that stuff. They made him say an actual sentence.

Overall, I give that movie 1 1/2 stars.

Twilight, the movie.

Assets:

  1. Very cute.
  2. Some of the scenes were pretty cool, like the baseball scene and the fight scene with James in the dance studio.
Liabilities:

  1. Horrible makeup
  2. Most special effects sucked
  3. Nothing like the book
  4. Chemistry between the Jessica & Mike and Angela & Eric characters was... okay, but not as good as it should have been.

3 stars.

I'm not dead

'Till now I've almost forgotten about this thing, no posts since the Earth month October. So here's what I've been playing mostly for a few weeks:

WARNING: Some of these videos have an F-Bomb!


Yes, World of Warcrack this is my character:


So just blame it on Leeroy Jenkins.

Oh, and:

Leeroy as Aragorn


Leeroy in Star Wars


More later.

Pissed

Klayman is underway, I am now recording voices.

Unfortunately my Klayman figure was out on the desk when my neighbor and his friend came over to play Halo 3. Not knowing the importance of the figure however, one of them squashed it up, mixing the blue of the body with the red of the cape, I was only successful of getting half the colors out, the rest of the mix is a deformed blob of blueish purpleish red which I may not find a use for.

As an added bonus, our cleaning lady's friend (who did a horrible job) got rid of all the clay that wasn't used for Klayman (What did she think it was? Mold that had been carefully shaped into cubes and people?). Either she threw it out or she put it somewhere where I'd never think of looking for it. I'm looking at the roof one and, oh, there's my clay! "Oh look my clay's on the roof how she get up there? Experimental jetpack? Or did she just climb using her amazing spider powers?"

So there will be a slight delay on Klayman whilst I get new clay and rebuild my figures.

Until next time

Not dead, not mutilated and not attacked by zombies

So... where to begin...

I now go to Denny Middle School instead of Pathfinder K-8, and I have more than two friends now.

I got a kitten, we named him Elvis Catstello he's annoying but we love him.

Now on to games.

I've traded in tons of games that I don't play anymore to Game Crazy, and I got Halo 3 and Dead Rising and I love them both. While Halo 3 is a fast paced first person shooter, Dead Rising is a creepy third person action/adventure game.

For all the games I get I will now post reviews so you can decide if you want to get them.

Halo 3:

Halo 3 has great gameplay and and even greater graphics, the game picks up right after the events of the second game and finishes the trilogy very well. The thing I liked most was the addition of deployable power ups (e.g. Bubble shield, Trip mine) they're very useful and can really save you in a tight spot. Another new addition to the game is that you can rip turrets off their stands and carry them around, as you carry a turret, your view switches to third person so you can see how kick-ass you look. The Covenant have stayed pretty much the same except that the elites have switched sides, so instead of fighting them, you are now fighting alongside them, the story was a little hard to understand sometimes but it all comes together great and the ending was a great conclusion to the trilogy, the fact that Cortana was with the flood confused me, because I never remember her getting lost in the first place. All in all a pretty good game, it took me a decent amount of time to finish, but beating it doesn't mean that you're done, there's also awesome multiplayer and Forge mode, Forge mode lets you pick a level and place whatever you want in it, meaning you could put a ton of explosive barrels in a pile, throw a grenade and watch the explosion, but you can also save your level and play it online or with friends. I really recommend buying this game if you are a Halo fan but if not, play the first and second before, so you know what's going on. (P.S. there's a secret scene at the end of the credits.)

Gameplay = 9.0
Story = 9.6
Graphics = 9.2

I'll post a review for dead rising once I beat it.

SEGA, You disgust me.

Okay, I haven't posted in a while... but I haven't had anything to post about... until today.
I have recently played a demo for the new Sonic game, and though it has Sonic in it, it is hardly a Sonic game. I don't know if I speak for myself or the whole Sonic fan universe when I say "STOP SCREWING WITH THE FRICKIN PLOT!" they've now combined characters that look like they should be in FF, with Sonic universe characters, and "Shadow the hedgehog" game play (which was a complete load of BS to begin with), and added some other hedgehog with white fur and some weird looking thing on his head! Also, Who is the Princess, why is Robotnik skinny, and why is Sonic so hard to control? And who's the white guy? Somewhere between Sonic Heroes and this game, something in SEGA's head broke and now they've got crappy Sonic games pouring out the ass! Shadow is now this big weapons expert, Robotnik lost weight and SEGA lost their minds! What are they going to do now? Cross Splinter Cell with Tails? Come on! This is really ticking me off! Why can't SEGA make a decent Sonic game? I loved the games, I liked the show, I liked the comics, but this is insane! This is like what happened with the Nintendo vs. SEGA battle, SEGA had too many products out and 'twas their downfall, I predict this might happen again with the crappy Sonic games because only the little kids who have no idea what the other games were like will buy this game but the sonic fans won't, so they won't get enough money and make more crappy games and end up ruining the company. So have fun while you can SEGA, I'll be laughing when you go out of business. In fact I'm laughing right now, ha ha ha.

Until next time,

Kinda sorta maybe

So far you've heard me complain and go on and on about what I hate, well, here's some actual production notices, I made a short slideshowmoviething using cat macros (pictures of cats doing wierd things with captions) it's on Youtube, I'll post the link too...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3fdGgkGs3vQ
I'm also in production of Clayman: Claymanity's Greatest Hero. I'm doing claymation because I can't animate to save my life. After I get some reviews (hopefully good ones) I may do more clayman but we'll see.

Until next time,

More complaining, with a side of games

Why are we betraying Toyk? Who is your father? How come everyone knows where the sword is except us? How does he know what we're looking for? And why is he trying to eat my leg?

Cale'Anon "Looking for Group"



Don't you hate it when people online talk like this: n0 1 M 734 L337 4ax0r U 734 5ux0r5 an ur 734 g43y357!!!11!1 What? Can you please speak a language that I understand? And people who can't use proper spelling and grammer, like instead of forget they say forgot "don't forgot any!" It's fine if it's a typo, but if you see it every time he tries to say forget, he's got a problem that requires a private tutor.

When I first got this computer, I thought Yay, I'm going to have Vista! Now that I've had Vista for a while, I'm thinking I want XP again :( because all my games don't work right any more, like Fable, some games on Gametap, Toontown (That's right folks I play Toontown)etc.

On another note, check this out:

An update

So much going on, hardly have enough time to post...
birthday was a week ago, two days after my last post, the next day I found my hamster was dead in his wheel, about 5 minutes before the party, I had only had him for a month.

That didn't stop me from having a good time though, we saw the new spiderman, it was good but too long, I had to pee for half the movie and left for the bathroom 2 minutes before it ended because if I had held it in any longer my bladder would have exploded, and that kinda puts a damper on your day.

VG cats has to be my favorite webcomic ever and I agree with this strip, more pokèmon games? They've exhausted all their ideas, they've got nothing else to work with. I once made a joke that the next pokèmon movie is going to be named "Another Pokèmon Movie" because they ran out of names. But they keep going, "Pokèmon Jhoto", "Pokèmon Mystery Dungeon", "Pokèmon Butthole" in the year 2100 they're going to use up every word; English and Japanese, and have to use made up words, "Pokèmon Kojlkji", and then words unpronounceable by even Jesus, "Pokèmon kjdsfcrd1fj5]%ga" (of course by the time Nintendo runs out of made up names we'll already have cloned Jesus and have him walking the streets of NY as a lawyer or something(no one can say no to Jesus.).)

In other news I've found a flash cartoon that my dad did called "Hammond Rye: Space Hero" here's a link to the video: http://www.hyperbole.com/hr/hr1.html
Until next time,
