2011-06-22T20:34:00.004+01:00

Hey guys, wow....Blogger has changed alot since the 15th Febuary.......after very much thought, i decided that since 29th December 2008 this blog has been fun to run, many of my friends checked it, i got a decent number of pageviews........good times.

But my last post was 15th Febuary, you may have noticed somthing was wrong, well im here to say this.......im leaving you.

A sad end yes, but i shall not simply dissapear, im officially moving over to my friends site Molrams Gaming, a much nicer site to look at if you ask me!

I will keep this blog up so people can look back and see the past, who knows, maybe one day this could be a good resource to remember what gaming was like in the past...

So my final post, i never thought i'd do this but....farewell, this site has done me good through the years since 2008. Time to mvoe on to better and greener pastures...or internet pages :)

For anyone who wishes to e-mail me, you can contact me at systemneon460@gmail.com

I bid thee farewell....Kieran The Tech Guy....Kieran Gould.....

I....cant...wait...

2011-02-25T10:26:00.000Z

3DS is officialy 1 MONTH AWAY! And i am dying to get my hands on it! But just to hold you over, to celebrate Portal 2 coming in April, have a look at this epic music video by 'Victims Of Science'

My understanding of conventional physics is completly destroyed

New Kirby ALREADY?!

2011-02-18T22:27:00.000Z

Ok, as most of you know, Kirby's Epic Yarn was released for the Wii this year, and it was a pretty good game.

But, and i still cant believe this, a video of the next Kirby Adventure has been leaked online!

GameSpot has confirmed with Nintendo that this is an official video (not a fake), how this was leaked nobody even knows, but it looks WAAYYYY better than Epic Yarn! (no offence, but i just hate yarn and sewing and knitting and all that stuff)

No release date, no name, all we have is this video, but by the looks of its detail, i'd say it might even be coming out this year!

Preorder 3DS Now!!!!

2011-01-27T18:30:00.000Z

It was announced this morning, that both Argos and Asda would be THE first shops in the UK to start taking 3DS pre-orders, talk about heavy competition! Both are now taking pre-orders (with me on the list :D) and turns out ASDA will be my choice! Enter the code 15OFF3DS in checkout and save £15 off the 3DS!!!

Do it now! Very limited spaces!!!!!

The PSP 2 !!!!

2011-01-24T16:01:00.000Z

Yes! It was leaked on the internet only hours ago, and this is OFFICIALY the FIRST EVER picture of the PSP 2!!!!

Also the PSP 2 might include a touch screen, and is said to have twice as much RAM as the Xbox 360, A HD screen, even has 3G connection, and even has a slot for Memory Sticks.

But there's more, there is an even better version, this version was a beta version, and when disposing of it, it then fell into the hands of a collector who then took some snapshots of it, again, there is an even BETTER version of this somewhere out there.

But for now, it looks epic!!!

3DS Info

2011-01-11T17:41:00.000Z

With the 3DS just a few months away, i remembered! Nintendo had an e-mail address! Way back in 2009 i found Nintendo's secret e-mail adress, i sent them a message saying 'When will the next Starfox game be announced', they replied 'Probably E3 2010', and they were RIGHT!

So yesteray i sent them a message saying 'When will 3DS get released?', this was their reply:

Dear Kieran,

Thank you for your interest in the Nintendo 3DS console.

Unfortunately, we cannot reveal any specifics at this time regarding the final version of the console, unit colours, a possible release date or a recommended retail price.

It is very likely that further information will be made available over the coming months, so we do recommend that you keep up to date with the latest news from Nintendo by visiting our official homepage, which can be found at:

http://www.nintendo.co.uk

Kind regards,

John Parker
Nintendo Service Centre

So that was the e-mail i got, so no new 3DS news then. :(

Podcast: Episode 1

2010-12-31T22:43:00.002Z

Listen!

PODCAST!

2010-12-31T22:20:00.002Z

EDIT: HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Pokemon Black White PREVIEW!!!!

2010-12-04T16:18:00.000Z

Yes! Today i have been given special accsess to test play Pokemon Black White in full English! I only just got it right now so here is the intro screen to Pokemon Black White!!!!

Please note that i am currently at the title screen, i have not played the game yet. From what i can figure out there is some kind of Pokemon King, who has a flashback to when he first started off as a kid. Who is this person? Could it be you? I have no idea, but im about to play!

Oh yeah, you might be wondering how i got this game in english, besides it only just got released in Japan (they always get it first). Well, i did quite alot of Internet Research but i finally found someone who had a copy of the game, around 30% translated. So most of the game is still in Japaneese, but at least we can play it some way.

Super Meat Boy Trailer

2010-11-28T20:11:00.000Z

I ran across a game on Steam called Super Meat Boy, might have to buy it!

Video KIlled The Radio Star

2010-11-23T18:58:00.000Z

There wa a time, where there was no Tv, no Xbox or Playstation. There were only around 10 computers in the entire world and they only had the power of a pocket calculator! It was the radio era, where all day long you listen to Beatles, Queen, and other great retro bands. Then there came the revolution, it was bound to happen and it did...Television. It was unlike anything people had ever seen before, a moving picture with sound on a small 5" screen, sure it was Black and White and the quality was horrible, but it was brand new, nobody saw it coming! Slowly but surely every radio company went bust as people watched TV, and millions of radio were thown into the bin (literally). The radio company went into the TV buisness (thus MTV was born) and that was it for radio.

However, since radios have been getting small enough for phones, cars, watches and MP3 players, radios are starting to make a comeback, with crystal clear sound and more channels, radio is stronger than ever....

Proseffor Layton And The Lost Future

2010-11-13T15:24:00.001Z

Prosessor Layton VS Phoenix Wright THE GAME!

2010-10-30T16:09:00.000+01:00

Holy crap, it was groundbreaking news as this trailer was unleashed at TGS2010, i was shocked to see both Layton and Phoenix in ONE trailer in ONE game for THREE MINUTES!!!!

Without further ado, here is the trailer:

In full 480p this trailer is epic! Being released for 3DS in Late 2010

Medal Of Honor Beta Review

2010-10-19T19:40:00.001+01:00

Yet another Modern Warfare 2 rif-off, don't get it.

New School

2010-10-19T19:37:00.000+01:00

Wow, a whole 9 DAYS since my last post. If you've been e-mailing me about it then its because i now go to a different school, its thta awkward time where the new school is way bigger, more kids, all new people and much more. The food there is ok, the lessons are great, extra homework sucks but im getting used to it.

Anyway, sorry for not talking about the new Wii Party, Metroid Other M (i finally got to play it!) and other great games.

Jaycut

2010-10-10T20:07:00.000+01:00

Ever used Windows Movie Maker? Its bullcrap isn't it? Well now the people at Jaycut are offering a FREE better movie making tool and you don't have to download anything!

Image via CrunchBase

Its called...Jaycut, may not sound great but is by far the best FREE movie software i've ever seen, it has tons of effects, such as greenscreen, audio editing, free storage and even allows you to make your own video player with your name on it! I have been using Jaycut for around 2-3 weeks now and i've had no problems whatsoever, i higly recommend Jaycut if you're sick of Movie Maker.

Verdict: Awesome movie maker, and its FREE! 9/10

100TH POST EXTRAVAGANZA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2010-10-10T19:54:00.000+01:00

YES, THIS IS OFFICIALY THE 100TH POST ON THIS BLOG!! WOOOOOOTTTT!!!!!!!!

Medal Of Honor OPEN BETA!

2010-10-04T19:41:00.000+01:00

Yes, today i have just started downloading the Medal Of Honor Open Beta as of 4th October 2010, but due to a 1.5GB file size, i can't do a review yet. What i have seen of the gameplay yet is amazing though!

Download the Beta for FREE right now by using Steam

HURRY! THE BETA ONLY LASTS UNTIL 7TH OCTOBER!!!!!

Kinect Disconnect?

2010-10-01T22:49:00.000+01:00

Kinect, if you were on my site back at E3 2010 you would know that i broadcasted the Kinect live from E3. At E3 it worked great! But i have my doubts.....

I get the feeling that Kinect won't work, you've got to take in all the complex calculations, such as light difference, real-time 3D vetor calculations, skeletal mapping, finger poses, facial expressions, voice recognition, chromakey cropping and SO much more!!!!!!!! How a Xbox 360 can do all this on-the-go is absolutly impossible, it would reqiure almost 20 Xbox 360's (by my calculations).

Well, the only way we will find out, is 10th November, thats when Kinect comes out in Europe, lucky Americans, they get it 6 days before us >:(

October,November,CHRISTMAS!

2010-09-24T21:51:00.000+01:00

I know,christmas is ages away but this is importent.
In the next 3 months,loads of great games are going to be released,so many i can't even fit them all on this post!

Just trust me,get cracking on that Christmas list!

Enter The Popemobile!!!!!!

2010-09-18T19:07:00.000+01:00

Ok,this is somthing i just cannot get out of my head!

You know the Pope is currently in England? Well,i just thought,it kinda looks like a modified golf cart.

Here's what i mean:

Ok,so thats the Popemobile,not really that interesting...

Holy molly! There're like brother and sister! This is the incredible truth behind the Popemobile!

Long story short: The Popemobile,a modifyed golf cart that runs at and incredible 99 MPH! (Yeah,it only goes that fast)

Exclusive HL2 Episode 3 Screenshots!

2010-09-13T18:02:00.000+01:00

Well,this is it,the VERY first screenshot of Half Life 2 Episode 3,all i can say is,its what looks like the Citadel (even though it was completly destroyed in Episode 2),in the backround you can see Gordan Freeman with his trusty crowbar in hand and a Combine Advisor near him. All that is know at this point is that the game takes place in a cold snowy location,possible the North Pole,it will be released for PC,Xbox 360,PS3 and possibly Mac,also this is the last of the "Episodes" which means after this,Half Life 3!

Thats all we know for now,it was a real pain to get this picture out,and hope you enjoyed it.

Portal 2 Videos

2010-09-10T15:47:00.000+01:00

With the days counting down until Portal 2's Febuary 9th world-wide release,Valve has been kind enough to share some videos with the YouTube community

Unfortuantly,due to Bogger being a pain today,i cant upload a video for you,but trust me,these videos are EPIC
Search for Portal 2 on youtube

If you want your slice of Portal 2 (god thats a bad pun...) make sure to keep checking here!

Metroid Madness

2010-08-31T18:35:00.000+01:00

Metroid,Nintendo's only entrence to the mature video game market,has been going all the way back to 1986 on the NES,and now,Metroid Other M gets released in just 4 days from now. Since Metroid Other M is'nt out yet,i can only tell you about the game footage thats been spread around the internet,the games graphics are incredibly detailed for Wii,just watch when you enter the forrest level mid-game. In Other M the game is very relient on cutsceens to tell its story,i'll try not to spoil everything,but Samus has been sent to investigate a mysterious ship called "The Bottle Ship". Another nice addition is that you can now grapple and wrestle with enemys to kill them instead of blasting them,in some gameplay footage,it showes Samus running across a great big lava moster to literaly rip its head off,all i can say is...WOW! The gameplay is said to be great apart from aiming can be very hard at times,but that was the E3 version and Nintendo has said that this will be fixed in the retail version. What will happen when the game hits stores: MADNESS,ABSOLUTE MADNESS. There have allready been hundred of thousands of pre-orders from Game,Gamestation,Online stores and so many more,i reckon lines stretching out of the store and going for miles,as i said,madness.....

Keep an eye out for this game! Hits stores on 3rd September!!!!

ALL YOUR PS3 ARE BELONG TO US!

2010-08-22T15:30:00.001+01:00

No,this is'nt some kind of lame joke made up my me in 5 seconds,this is serious. Earlier today,while surfing the internet,i was looking up PS3's since i don't own one,then,shocking news! Since its release in 2006,nobody has yet to crack the PS3's super encryption,meaning that you could not play illigal games on it,such as downloaded games,homebrew games or install downloaded software onto your PS3...

But finally,areter nearly 4 years,the hackers have done it again,they said that DVD could'nt be cracked,they were wrong,they said that Blu-Ray was secure,not any more,they said that PS3 was impossible,they proved Sony wrong!

You can finaly play downloaded PS3 games,now,im definetly not a supporter of piracy,but im amazed of how to hackers continuenly break through even the toughest encryptions,lock,codes,and systems.

So,if you own a PS3 and want to play downloaded PS3 games,go he...oh,i cant tell you,because that would be illigal,but i can say this: Google "PS3 jailbreak",you'll find it...

EDIT: WOW! Within less than 24 hours Sony has sent updates to all PS3's worldwide rendering the hack USELESS!!!!

Times Change

2010-08-21T20:19:00.000+01:00

Whats that you see up there,under the big "Kieran The Tech Guy" sign? Its text,thats right,this means that EVERY time i make a post,there will be some new text under that banner. Why? Because in video gaming,there are alway moment where you laugh your pants off,here at Kieran HQ,we are trying to replate this on a weakly basis,so everytime you visit,there could just be another laugh right behind that screen of yours......

3DS poll results!

2010-08-21T20:07:00.000+01:00

Ok people the results are in, will the 3DS be a success,or a failure? You think that it will be *drum roll* ...........SUCCESS!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok,you think that the 3DS will be a success,and to be honest,after all the positive reactions to the 3DS from E3 and other sites, i think that it will have a pretty good chance of being Nintendo's next best selling console.

Well,thank for reading, happy gaming!

Ultimate 3DS Scoop!

2010-08-13T12:56:00.000+01:00

Well,im back from holiday,and it seems that i'v missed lots of releases such as Starcraft II,Mafia II and a few others. Anyway,after 3 days of solid research,i have plenty of 3DS info to tell.

A few posts ago i mentioned that the 3DS should have some awesome online capabilities,more info on this has been released. The 3DS will not have mobile internet,but instead a feature that allows your 3DS to connect to the internet while its turned off,this means that whenever you open it,there could be somthing new for you,such as bonus level,extra quests and more depending on what game is being played.

Also,the 3DS will have its own Virtual Console like the Wii,only one system has been anounced for this and that is the good old NES, but the greatest things about it,is that you can play these games in 3D! There has also been a rumor that with 2 player games,you are able to link up with another 3DS to play that game.

You can also play all of your DS games on the 3DS, unfortuantly you can't play them in 3D but it does mean that you can sell your DS,DS Lite or DSi to get a 3DS.

Speaking of prices the 3DS is said to be "Affordable to everyone",no exact price has been released yet but this does mean that it should'nt cost TOO much.

Now,for the games,the 3DS launches with over 70 games,the biggest number of launch titles for any videogame system ever,thats so many i can't even fit them all in this post! To view these games goto Nintendos Official 3DS page here.

Thats all i can say for now (well,as much as i can fit in a single post) ,so for now,keep checking this blog weekly for more exciting news!

Ola from Spain

2010-08-08T21:09:00.000+01:00

Hi,currently,im in Spain and taking time out of my busy schedule to write on my blog. Let me say quickly that Spain it awesome,if you've never been there,go there,it is AMAZING. Anyway,i though id upload a picture of me...well,a cartoon of me.

Cartoon of me drawn in Spain

This incredible work of art was drawn by local artist,Ferario.

Well,hope you hav'nt missed me while iv been on holiday,but don't worry. When i get back,i have exclusive 3DS news to tell you......

Bon Voyage!

2010-08-04T04:44:00.000+01:00

Ugh..its 4:15 am right now and i am shattered but i'll try to write somthing. Today,i am going on holiday,so for the next 7 days,don't expect anything out of me.

Just thought i'd let you know, Kieran

Steam

2010-07-28T18:57:00.000+01:00

Ok,i know what your thinking,your thinking im going to talk about steam? The steam that you get when your making a nice cup of coffee? Well no of course not,why would i talk about steam,im talking about THIS steam!

Yeah,that kind of steam!

Steam is what i use to buy all of my PC games now,its cheaper,easier and it will be delivered in 24 hours,always.Here is basicly the formula of Steam.

Quicker= When you order through Steam,you don't get the game on a disc,you download it! The moment you pay for a game,it starts downloading onto your computer,i brought Mass Effect 2(which is a great game by the way)a few months ago,i paid for it,and within 8 hours i had the game and was able to play it instantly,thats fast.

Easier= Since your ordering online,you don't even have to get out of your chair to get the game,no more walking down to ASDA anymore or having the mailman knock at 4AM anymore!

Cheaper= Here are a few reasons why Steam is cheaper than shops:

No packaging
Plenty of sales!
Shops always raise the price for bigger profits,but Steam dos'nt!
Don't have to pay for delivery

There are also other good resons for using Steam,you can make a friends list and talk to them(it even shows what game their playing),you play demos of games before you buy them,you can view trailers,pictures and read reviews,and you can even gift games to friends!
Overall,Steam is by far the best way to buy games,i highly recommend it!

TF2: Meet The Spy

2010-07-21T20:04:00.000+01:00

Ok,this is what everybody has been waiting for,it took a long time to get hold of,but here it is! I present to you: Meet The Spy

WARNING: Contains animated blood!

Also,remember to get Team Fortress 2,it is a great game and its online play is superb!

Video (C) Valve 2010

Somthings Coming.....

2010-07-18T21:33:00.001+01:00

Ugh....im bored right now. I havn't updated Kieran The Tech Guy in a week now,so i thought i'd just put this in here to say somthing is coming. I can't tell you what,but trust me,somthings coming...

Oh and i have a logo now :-)

Game Review: Portal

2010-07-10T23:52:00.011+01:00

Portal is by far the most confusing game i have ever played,i'v had it for a month now,and i still hav'nt finished it. Anyway,on to the review!

Plot: The story in Portal is very unique,for those of you who have not played portal yet,i'll try not to spoil the story to much. You wake up in a glass room,through the glass walls you can see what looks like an exit and a window in the wall,you can't see anyone in the window then suddenly a voice tells you to leave the room. A Portal opens in front of you and you walk through it which takes you outside the room,from there on its puzzles,puzzles and more puzzles! I won't reveal the ending,but trust me,its EPIC!

Graphics: Top-notch graphics are delivered by Valve's Source Engine which produces some very impressive gameplay.

Gameplay: Mind-bending as hell! Even once you get used to how portals work,you'll still find the game confusing

Music: There realy is'nt much music in this game(only two)the first is in the ending "battle" and the second is the ending credits. The ending music is amazing,if you hav'nt seen it then watch it now(go to youtube and type it "portal ending music)!

Overall: 9/10 Great game,a must have for every PC gamer!

NOTE: in case you're wondering what portals are and how they work,watch the vid below...

Server Explosion

2010-07-05T18:56:00.000+01:00

Just watch.....

Sorry! My Fault!

2010-07-04T23:04:00.000+01:00

If any of you went on my site yesterday and got an error message,that was me...

The site was undergoing maintenence inbetween 11:30 AM and 8:28 PM and because of that i had to take the site down. Everythings fine now and sorry if you could'nt get onto the site in that time.

New Nintendo Character

2010-07-03T15:40:00.000+01:00

Finally,after nearly 10 years of Nintendo not making ANY new characters(the last was Pikmin from 2001),a new character is being made,no details have been spilt yet,but for now just keep checking Nintendo website!

My Thoughts: Xbox 360 Kinect

2010-07-02T22:27:00.001+01:00

The Xbox 360 Kinect,to most people it looks like the future,to me it looks like another "Wii Wanabe".

A Wii Wanabe is the name i give to console that deliberatly rips off the Wii because it either has motion sensing, sound from the controller or allows you to point at the screen to do somthing.

The biggest Wii Wanabe iv seen is the Vii...

(Click the picture to zoom in)

It looks almost exactly like the Wii,from the controllers to the console and worst of all,it rip off Nintendos name,the full name of the Vii is the......Chintendo Vii! It is the biggest rip off i have EVER seen in my entire life!

Anyway! On to the Kinect,it looks pretty good,no controllers,voice controll,decent price tag and over 40 games in development like Kinectables (a zoo game of some kind), a strange boat game, and a few others. Here are some of the games i'd like to see on Kinect

Call Of Duty: Think about it,pretending to hold a gun in your hands,then blashing the guts out of a noob when he come wondering by! Awesome!
Microsoft Flight Simulator: Come on Microsoft,its time to see another flight simulator game,but with modern graphics and using Kinect to fly a plane or helecopter.......
Rocky: There is already a boxing game being made for Kinect but what about Rocky? Playing as the master of boxing and seeing all the famous Rocky characters make a comeback,EPIC!
NBA Jam: The greatest arcade game of 1993 making a comeback on Kinect,with all the basket ball stars on the court,and being able to play as your Xbox Live character!
Tetris: Moving Tetris blocks with your hands would be cool..........
Star Wars: Imaging controlling a X-Wing with your hands,killing a stormtrooper using the force with your bare hands,or battling Darth Vader with a lightsaber!

All those games would be amazing,all we can do is wait until November 4th,thats when Kinect get released with a price of $150(or £98),Xbox 360 owners,keep your eye out............

Nintendo 3DS: My Thoughts

2010-06-26T21:41:00.000+01:00

The 3DS,will it be another great Nintendo console,or a complete flop,well here is my opinion about the 3DS,for younger gamers,they will love it,they will buy it the very day it hits stores. For adults it may not do too well,they will think its just another silly gadget and not buy it. Me,i would probably not buy it,if i go round somones house who has one and i like it,i might just buy it...

Anyway,i think it will be a flop,the craze will last a few months then it will slowly start to wear off and people will lose interest. Remember,this is just my opinion,some of you probably think it will be a great sucsess so don't take my words too seriously and don't get all angry at me. Anyway,the only way to find out about the 3DS is to just wait,and watch.....

3DS Launch Titles

2010-06-23T21:16:00.001+01:00

Here are a few games that are coming out for the 3DS when it launches,there are lots of 3DS games so i'll just list some of the major ones.

Legend Of Zelda:Ocarina of Time 3D

This looks to be a great game,there were many rumors that there would be a Wind Waker 3D,but those were proved wrong when screenshots were shown at E3 this year.

What can be said about the game,its Ocarina Of Time,its portable,its 3D,its a classic N64 game remade in glorious 3D with superb graphics,a must have game! Unfortuantly,i could'nt get a screenshot of this game but i shall get one soon!

Ahh...Mario Kart,one of the best kart racing games on the plannet and now there are BRAND NEW courses that are even whackier than ever!

The screenshot here shows Mario racing around Wuhu Lisland,don't worry,the whole game is'nt about Wuhu island,there are tons of other courses to play around with,one of them is a sort of pipe land,one is a jungle and another one shows Peaches castle,Nintendo has many more courses in the works so make sure to keep an eye on Nintendo's 3DS page!

Paper Mario was Nintendo third attempt at a Mario themed RPG,and this is probably their best attempt,not much is know apart from its 3D (of course) and it play the same as the old Paper mario on N64,so far it looks to be a great RPG and contains all the classic characters from the universe of Mario!

Pilotwings Resort is the long awaited sequal to Pilotwings 64 that fans have been

waiting for since 1996,and it was only a week ago they got news that a new Pilotwings game was being made. By the looks of the screenshot,the game is based around Wuhu island. Think about it, flying around Wuhu island with a jetpack! This is another must have game,its 3D,it has Wuhu island,and has many more modes of transport that have yet to be anounced!

Starfox 64 3D...even though im a big starfox fan,im not realy looking forward to this game,its the exact same Starfox 64 exept its 3D and better graphics,it has the same level design(see the screenshot),same voice acting,same story,same EVERYTHING! If you don't own Starfox 64,buy this game,if you do own this game,don't buy it.

Ok,thats all for now,i shall add more games later but for now,thats all!

Ways to watch

2010-06-20T15:10:00.000+01:00

For a while now i'v been thinking of a way of being able to orginize my videos so its much easier,and that thought has come true! Now,instead of having to flip through tens of pages to find the video you want,now you can just look at the video box on the right and pick the one you want,simple!

Virtual Insanity?

2010-06-20T14:45:00.000+01:00

Since the Nintendo 3DS was unveiled at E3 a few days ago,people have been asking the question,"Will it catch on?".

If you ask me then i don't know what to say,i'v always been into virtual reality but never realy tryed it,and think about this little console...

Yes,Nintendo's biggest fail,the Virtual Boy,it was so bad that within 6 months of it being in stores,Nintendo had stop production of the Virtual Boy! People who used it got headaches,sore backs,eye strain and was made to be a "portable" console (how on earth was THAT ment to be portable? What if you wanted to play in the car,you know,thinking about it,why would you want to play it at all?). Only 23 games were ever made,23 in Japan,U.S.A only got 17 games,and Europe did'nt even get the Virtual Boy at all!

So,will the 3DS fair any better,hasn't Nintendo learned from their mistakes? Only time,will tell...

FIRST 3DS IMAGES!!!

2010-06-15T18:33:00.001+01:00

This is the VERY FIRST image of the Nintendo 3DS,straight from E3 thanks to Gametrailers,it has an anolog stick like the XBOX 360 and PS3 and a total of 3 cameras! It will also have the ability to go online without the need for Wi-Fi,how that works i do not know but apparently it will not cost any extra money,stay tunes for more 3DS news later!!!!!!!!!!!!!

EDIT: I replaced the old picture with a much better picture!

The FIRST EVER computer animation

2010-06-14T08:40:00.001+01:00

Computer animation,if we did'nt have it then films,games and pictures would'nt be the same,but have you ever stoped to think what is the FIRST computer animation,well it was made all the way back in 1963 by a guy called E.E. Zajac ,unfortuantly,no footage exists of his animation, but if you mean the first one thought of then the first computer animation was in 1951,but it took an entire 17 YEARS TO RENDER!!!!!!!

The good news is i managed to find footage of it!!!!! Watch it in the video section on my site!!!!!!!

New Computer

2010-05-26T20:06:00.001+01:00

Well,here it is,my very own computer,its old but it does the job

Now,it may look old but it was only made around 3 or 4 years ago,so its not THAT bad,it can run my website,it can go on youtube and play games like Runescape or any other games.

Anyway,its a fairly decent PC and it also...

Damn! I'll be back in a moment.............

E3 Prediction 2010

2010-05-23T11:16:00.001+01:00

E3 IS BACK!!!!!!!!!

AND HERE ARE THIS YEARS E3 PREDICTION BY KIERAN THE TECH GUY!!!!!!!!

Oh yes,E3,the biggest and best place to go if you love Nintendo,Sony,Microsoft,Capcom,Konami and many other video game developers who want to show off their new games or tech,unforuantly,i can't get there due to it costing way too much and various other things,but here is my prediction of what will be shown at E3!

Nintendo 3DS: At this years E3,the 3DS will be shown,other than it will be 3D,wehave no information AT ALL about this console,expect photos of the 3DS after E3...
Starfox Wii: Starfox has been out of action for 4 years,so im expecting another Starfox game will be shown,to prove this,Nintendo has already confirmed another Starfox game is in the works,i can't wait to lay my eyes on it!!!!
Yet another Mario game:A new Mario game is released every year(sometimes 2,even 3!)so it'll be no suprise if another Mario game is shown
Zelda Wii: Zelda fans have been going crazy after seeing this image,so we are all hoping that Nintendo will show us some in-game footage of Zelda Wii! Keep your fingers crossed!!!!!!!

Well,those are all the things i think will be shown at E3,remember,im into Nintendo,not Microsoft or Sony,so don't expect any news about them,anyway,thats my prediction,i may be right,i may be wrong so don't get angry at me because i got somthing wrong.

That the E3 prediction,see you soon!!!!!

Starfox 2 15th Aniversary

2010-05-22T21:12:00.000+01:00

HAPPY 15TH BIRTHDAY STARFOX 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Starfox 2 was an unreleased SNES game that was planed to be released in 1995,but due to the N64 coming out soon,the game got canceled.

Amazingly,even today you can still play Starfox 2! How exactly? EMULATORS! Ever since SNES emulators came out,Starfox fans were waiting to see if Starfox 2 would apear,and sure enough,it did,how did the ROM get out,well...nobody exactly know but rumors suggest that a few men smuggled out the demo cartridge from E3,others say that a Nintendo employe wanted the game to be emulated,but nobody knows for sure,BUT WHO CARES?!?! All we care is about the game,not how it got out! If Starfox 2 had of come out,it probably would have sold rather well with it groundbreaking gameplay and incredible graphics(for it's time).

And it just so happens that 2010 is Starfox 2's 15th Birthday (Acording to the copyright in the game)so to Starfox fans everywhere,get an emulator (or you'r SNES if your lucky enough to own Starfox 2 on a cartridge) and play Starfox 2!

But as i was saying,Starfox 2 is an awesome game,even to this day,if only it could be put on Virtual Console......

You probably don't know this,but i am a fan of Darren Shan,in case you hav'nt heard of him,he is a great author and a master of horror,and today,i got to meet him.

Darren: Well,when i was young i was in to vampires,zombies,and all that stuff. I thought of the idea of a boy befriending a vampire and thats how it happend!

I know it was short but if you saw the line,it was massive,so i could only ask a single question before i had to go,anyway,i got his new book,he signed it,and im happy!

Worst Film Ever?

2010-05-04T18:48:00.000+01:00

Think Fast,you can tell by the name that it sucks,it's supposed to be a spy/comedy movie,but i find it to be the absolute worst movie i have ever seen!

I actually left the cinema half way through the movie,its THAT bad!Just check any review site,IDBM,Spike,Youtube,they all say the same

I rate it 0/10 due to awful story,horrible choice of actors and dreadful CGI.

Game Review: WarioWare D.I.Y

Graphics: Just like every Warioware game,2D and cartoonish.

Sound: Wacky and wierd like usual!

Gameplay: Very well done,there are lots of tutorials to help you,and even though it may look comlicated at first,it's very easy once you get used to it.

Unfinished Work

2010-04-18T19:27:00.000+01:00

As you may or may not know,i create games,but some of my games never saw the light of day,somtimes because i lost the files,maybe because i lost interest,mabye due to people not liking it,there are many reasons some of my games don't get released or finished,so im going to tell you all of my unfinished projects.

Get The Money
This game got finished,it was a game where you were in a bank and you had to find the safe,nice and simple,unfortuantly,i've lost all of the files.

Get The Money 2
This game did'nt even get started(well,barly),i thought up a whole storyline,all the location,did some roughs sketches on it and even started programing the game engine,but due to my hard drive crashing,i lost it all.

Skyscraper Wars Returns
This game yet again barly even got started,this game was the seaqal to Skyscraper Wars where you fight zombies,but this game was a multiplayer game,you had the Destroyers who try to destroy the skyscraper,the Defenders who try to save the skyscraper and the zombies who have taken over most of the floors of the skyscraper,this game AGAIN barly got made,the skyscraper was unfinished,the zombies never got made and the scripting was horribly patched together,nearly to the point where the game crashed itself,if you want to see the game then go to roblox then go to people and type in tronlaser to find me and some of my games.

Horror Movie Characters
When Jamie asked me to create a game for him,i accepted,unfortuantly,i only had 2 hours so i was under alot of pressure trying to make an entire game in 2 hours,i had to cut alot of corners to finish the game in time (in the end,i never even got to test it!!!!).The scripting was terrible and barly even functioned right.

Starfox: What You Did'nt See
This was supposed to be a rip off of Starfox but sadly neven got finished.

There are many other projects that never got finished but these are just some of them,i might put more later...

Game Review: Infinite Space

2010-04-16T19:05:00.001+01:00

This game is a example of how great DS games can truly be.This game has it all: RPG,Action,Adventure,Manga and so much more.Trying to review this game is like trying to explain quantum pyhsics in 5 minutes,it's impossible,but i'll try my best!

Story: The game takes place in,well,space! The story goes like this,you are a teenage boy named Yuri who longs to be a space pilot,unfortuantly for him,his planet forbids space flight so he secretly calls upon a pilot called Nia to take you into space,she heads towards your planet,Ropesk to pick you up but unluckly the Ropesk guards shoot her ship down and she crash lands on your planet,luckly,your a mechanic so you fix her ship and make a dash for Bagut (the nearest planet) but when you get there,you instantly get a message from the leader of Ropesk saying that he's got you sister hostage,so you go back to the planet,fight him,get your sister back and from there on,the story keeps on going.

Graphics: For the DS,the graphics are great,everything is nicely rendered in 3d and looks good.

Sound: Not too bad,there is not much music in this game and after a while,the music gets realy annoying,so get some headphones,a CD player and listen to some better music.

Gameplay: This will be very hard to explain so i'll make it nice and short,when you are commanding the ship,the controlls are easy to understand and are nicly labled,the combat sceans(when you are fighting hand to hand)are absolutly aweful,no matter how many times i read the instructions,i still can't understand it.

Overall: This is a great DS game,if they could improve on the hand-to-hand parts,this would be the best Space Sim on the DS i'v ever played

Score: A very good 9/10

Gears

2010-04-07T22:38:00.000+01:00

My new company,Gears.

FutureIdeas is dead,Gears has replaced it.

After me and Jamie had a few chats and i thought it over,FuterIdeas was'nt realy a good name for a company who made games,so,i tryed to think of a new name,and after many days and many night,i came up with gears.

Anyway,i'v made a logo and a animated version which you can see HERE

Long story sort: FutureIdeas is dead,Gears is born

Nintendo's New Kick-butt Console!

2010-03-27T22:37:00.000Z

Nintendo's new console is confirmed to be released in Japan in either March 2011 or April 2011,it will be the Nintendo 3DS.

It will basicily be a DSi,exept it has 3d,thats right,the game will literally come out of the screen like the picture above.

It uses a new type of 3d called autostereoscopy,it means that you won't have to wear 3d glasses,but the effects still come out of the screen!

Here's how it works,when you watch a normal 3d film,you have to wear special glasses,and on those glasses you have the lens,with the 3DS,they put the lens ON the screen so you don't have to wear glasses.

By now your probably jumping out of your computer chair and going wild,but it probably won't come out in Europe until around mid-2012,so for now,all you can do is keep flicking through the Nintendo Channel,hoping to find some more exciting news about the 3DS.

(NOTE: This is probably my biggest post yet!)

Funky New Logo!

2010-03-18T18:44:00.000Z

If you can't read the animated version then here is a non-animated one

I can tell what your thinking,you think this looks similler to the logo on the home page of http://www.fedup.tk/ ,well,that's because i made both of them,and if Jamie is reading this,don't try to call them your's!!!!!!

ITS OVER 9000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2010-02-20T12:36:00.000Z

This is the latest picture that i have made,i know i did a bad job of cutting me out and putting me with the flames but its still not that bad,hope you liked this picture!

The Gamboy Camera is a rare and expensive acsessory for the Gameboy,it takes Black and White photos of you and you can edit them and get very funny results.On eBay,the Gameboy Camera costs around £4 but i got it from a boot sale at £2.

Hi everyone!

I have been very very very busy lately trying to find the game Starfox 2.

Star Fox 2 is an unreleased video game for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System. It was to be the second of the Star Fox series and the direct sequel to Star Fox. Both Argonaut Games and Nintendo developed the game, with Nintendo planning to publish it.Unfortuantly,it got called off,by then it had already been fully tested and given the Nintendo Seal of Quality
