That’s it, I have lost all hope in mankind. This is proof that the world has gone to complete and utter shit. Not the statistics on murders or iPod thefts, no, the proof lies in an utterly horrifyingly decorated DS.
When I came across this, atrocity, I do believe there was a moment where I let out an audible shriek of horror. Did they have to put fake pearls on it?! I mean really, the pink heart, numerous amounts of rhinestones and a few scattered flowers weren’t enough?
Whenever a new Guitar Hero game is poised to be released, you star hearing rumors about different bands and tracks that might be included in the game. Eventually we finally get some confirmed tracks, followed by a complete set list. Well with Guitar Hero: On Tour, we’ve arrived at the stage where we’re given a healthy list of tracks to be included. Hit the jump to see which 15 songs have been officially announced.
If you’ve taken your Nintendo DS to a Seattle Mariners game lately, you will have no doubt noticed that you are treated to the Nintendo Fan Network. Of course by treated I mean “given the opportunity to pay for the service.” Well the next time you go, you’ll be happy to see that you no longer have to pay for the service.
I will admit that I have, upon occasion played a Pokemon game or two. Never the card game, mind you, as during that craze I still held true to my Magic: The Gathering roots. I will admit that the video games are fun, but I know when there are games that I should stay away from. Namely the ones where I end up feeling compelled to spend countless hours “catching them all,” because I’ll do just that. There are a couple of new Pokemon games hitting stores this week that take a different approach to the franchise.
Recently it was announced that Colorware is now customizing PSPs but as much as I love playing on their website I could never afford one. I know that for many that is a common issue, well Gelaskins has a much cheaper alternative.
Anyone that knows me knows that I’m hard on my gadgets. It’s not because I’m out in harsh conditions every day, but rather it has to do with the fact that I am rather clumsy at times. Luckily my DS lite, which I carry everywhere has yet to fail me. However, if your DS lite’s screen isn’t exactly performing as it used to, you can actually replace it yourself if you have the guts.
When it comes to RPG titles, there are few that I enjoy more than the Final Fantasy series. My favorite game of all time still has to be Final Fantasy VII. While I don’t see that title getting remade any time soon (and I wish it would!) we do have another remake on the way soon.
We already know that we have one remake of a classic title set to hit the DS this summer, but Eidos has surprised us with a different remake. The classic arcade title Gauntlet should certainly spice up the hot months.
DS Lite’s featuring a bit of customized artwork is nothing new, however, political artwork is something that hasn’t been seen quite as much. This DS is showing off the face of Obama, the artwork itself is rendered by a street artist named Shepard Fairey.
We brought you the official news on the new mobile Guitar Hero title not too long ago, which looks pretty cool. However, there have been some questions as to whether or not it will work on the original Nintendo DS. Red Octane has spoken up with the official word.
