Guilty Pleasure

There's always a new surprise in every trailer released by Kojima
This time it features 3 team members co-op, a boss fight, new weapons and more uber cardboard boxes!

Kojima definitely let his imagination run wild in this new and upcoming MGS
and certainly did as he pleases.
From all the trailers i've seen so far
IMHO, it's more 'fun' in terms of all the wacky card-board actions, the balloon recruitments and insanely awesome weapons compared to MGS4.
Heck there's even a pop music video! :D
I bet the game will sell more than 500k copies alone in Japan when its out in June

MGS: Peace Walker Co-Op gameplay trailer


More jaw-dropping gameplay from MGS:PW.
This video features a ton of new well...errr features! :D
I'm not gonna spoil em, watch it!
Capturing an enemy by strapping a balloon on them never gets old hahaha

Currently, I've got enough cash for a PS3
but after watching this
Fixing my PSP is now TOP priority!
Where's Kelvin when i need him -___-"

PS3 Move Ad


Funny man...I mean VP for countless bodacious departments of Sony, Mr Kevin Butler's back with a new ad on the new PS3 Move.

Xbox 360 goes on a Diet


Rumored to be the photo what's inside the new Xbox 360 2/Xbox 720/Xbox 360 Slim
The GPU and CPU are now combined together into one
and the whole thing looks a whole lot smaller
note that among all 3 major console this generation (excluding the original PS3)
360 is the largest one



I don't usually post stuffs bout Xbox 360 or Xbox coz i hate its sudden death caused by the Red Ring of Death (RRoD)
but im doing this for Bozz :P
and hopefully they don't rush this new Xbox like they did last time with the 360
which resulted in poor air ventilation designs causing easy overheating and eventual RRoD

HK gaming mag, Gamewaves was dead on right bout the MHP3 rumor as Capcom officially announced the game at a press conference in Japan yesterday.

Info:
Assumptions from the trailer:

ChaCha

• Felyne fighters remains with addition of ChaChas and you can bring both along on quests.
• Revamped Gunlance actions

Confirmed:

• Release at the end of 2010
• Different than MH3
• Improved graphics and sound
• Better communication (mic perhaps just like MH3 on the Wii)
• Infrastructure support added (no idea what this means...)
• Start from scratch, no continuation can be brought from MHP2G
• Less content compared to MHP2G
• New environments
  
• Fairly large farm
• A new 'bathing/spa' system will replace the 'felyne kitchen'
• Revamped felyne fighter combat
• Can equip felyne fighter armor and weapons
  
• No underwater combat D: (remains exclusive to MH3)
• Game is situated in Yukumo, an oriental village
• A lot of returning monsters from previous game eg. Naruga and Tigrex

Weapon types:

• Great Sword
• Long Sword
  
• Hammer
• Hunting Horn
• Sword and Shield
• Dual Swords
• Lance
• Gun Lance
• Slash Axe
• Light Bowgun
• Heavy Bowgun
• Bow

Although Capcom didnt brought the underwater combat system over from MH3, the addition of Slash Axe and the returning Bow (which was excluded in MH3) is more than than enough to make up for that loss.

Lady Gaga feat. Beyonce - Telephone


This was out a few days ago, don't know if MTV or Channel V's playing it yet
but even if it did, a hell lotta editing would be required.
The music video's almost 10 minutes long (kinda like a mini movie)
and it features Beyonce and Gaga with her duct taped tits
Music-wise, IMHO, not as good as Bad Romance
but the video's just as crazy
the whole MV was pretty Bonnie and Clyde-ish too

MGS: Peace Walker - 8 minutes gameplay


My jaws were gaping wide open throughout the video.
Yes, it's THAT Awesome, for a PSP game.
Truly worth being called a sequel, i.e. MGS5

Just Cause 2 DLC trailer
After watching a few of the Just Cause 2 gameplay and this one!
i think the developers had been spending way too much time on Garry's Mod and Machinima...

Monster Hunter

Nothing beats a Monster Hunter chart like all the monsters in one image.
Click image to enlarge.

I've always wanted to play Army of Two ever since it debuted on the xBox,and now i can. EA's releasing their sequel to the game, The 40th Day for the PS3, 360 and PSP. The storyline for the PSP will be different than that of the console. Check out one of the trailer below on weapon customization. Fuqin 'A'!

Army of Two: The 40th Day - Weapon Cuztomization

^Big Boss/Snake clones :D

The game takes place in the year 1974, in Costa Rica, after MGS3 .
Hideo Kojima himself said he will be heavily involved in the game's development; from scripting to producing and directing.
So you can expect another awesome installment into the MGS saga.

MGS: Peace Walker trailer



Judging from the trailer and the fact that its on the PSP
plus scenes and that screenshot (top) showing 4 Snake clones
im 99.9% sure that the game will feature a multiplayer mode or something alike.
Hopefully, it does...
So far, MGS has been a 1 player game, with exceptions to MGO (Online)
where you dont play as Snake and with no storyline

Specs:

• 16GB flash storage
• Less than half the weight of the current PSP
• Bluetooth
• No UMD drive
• Memory Stick Micro

Release date: 1 Oct 2009
Price: US$249

Monster Hunter Freedom Unite

Firstly i wanna credit JG for coming up with the original guide on this how to.
But i noticed that a lot of people including myself had a really hard time following his guide.
You can check it out here
So i decided to make one myself based on his with hopefully clearer instructions. :D
Note: The screenshots in my guide are from his, too lazy to make my own -___-"
Noob-proof guaranteed xD

Some obvious requirements: *__*

• PSP with custom firmware 5.00 m33-6 or later (i have not tried with earlier firmwares, not sure if they'd work or not...)
  
• Monster Hunter 2nd G (with an existing save file)
  
• Monster Hunter Unite US and/or EU
  
• Memory Stick Duo (this has to be a Sony brand or it wont work!!)
  
• PC
• USB Cable
• I was just kidding bout the memory stick part lol
• and 'some software' for this conversion process, click here to download em'
  

Step 1:

• Connect your PSP to your PC
• Download the 'some software'
• Unrar/unzip it
• It should be a folder named '2G to Unite Conversion'
• Open it up, then open up the MemStick folder inside
• Copy the FREECHEAT and seplugins folder into your PSP's main root folder, eg. F:\ (assuming your PSP/MS is drive F)
• IMPORTANT: if your PSP already has an seplugins folder, please cut and paste it into you PC for the time being of this conversion, then replace it with the downloaded one, it is to avoid plugin conflicts and PSP crash and hangs.
• Shutdown your PSP
• Then go into recovery mode by holding 'R' while turning it back on
• Enable the plugins and exit

Step 2:

• Start up MH2nd G

• Select the character you wanna convert into Unite

Step 2.5:

• Once loaded, press the music/note button on the PSP (the one between the 'brightness' and 'select' button) to bring up the FREECHEAT menu
  
• Something similar to below will show up
  

• Then select 'MEM Manager'

• Then select 'Dume Memory', yes DUME MEMORY!!! DUME IT! xD
• and then click Start Dump
• Wait for the dumping to complete, a message will pop up
• Once done, go back 'HOME' (exit the game)

Step 3:

• Start up MH Unite
• Create a new character with a unique name (this will later be important and make your task easier, eg. name = SuperDuperPope, i just assume you gave it this name :P
  
• The look and everything else are not important
• Save the character and repeat Step 2.5.

Step 4:

• 
  
• Open up the downloaded file earlier and open up MHP2GME.exe in the MHP2ME051 folder.
• Now learn Chinese
• Click the button with an (F) as shown below
• Then select the first choice, which mean 'SNAFU' in Chinese
  

• Navigate to your the FREECHEAT folder in your PSP
• Open up the dump folder, there should be 2 files: mem000.mem (2nd G) and mem001.mem (SuperDuperPope on Unite)
  
• Load up mem000.mem then click the button with the (F) again
  
• Click the second choice and then then the second choice again with 'FC' in the word
• Navigate to your desktop and give it any name then
  
• The saved file will magically appear on the desktop but the PC didnt like the name you gave and decided to change it into ULJM-05500.pat instead...
  

• Repeat Step 4 with the mem001.mem file and save it in a different location eg. C:\

Step 5:

• Go back to the downloaded folder again
• Open up Hex_Workshop_5.0.0.2511 folder and install the 'hw32v500.exe' inside
• Once installed, open up the Hex Workshop program
• Drag and drop the ULJM-05500.pat file from your desktop to the program, by right this should be the 2nd G Save file
• To confirm this is, the first line on the second column looks something like this with your character's name, the one shown below is JG's

• Highlight everthing from the beginning up till just before your character's name just like the screenshot above.
• Then right-click and delete it
• Also, if you wanna change your character's name, you can do it here, just make sure you follow the exact format
• After that, select everything (Ctrl+a), and copy (Ctrl+c)
• Now drag the other ULJM-05500.pat file from your C drive into the Hex Workshop
• Now search on the second column for the character's name, like if you named it SuperDuperPope, look for this word
• By right, it should be on the line 000042CC (the far left indication), if not, look for it!
• Then highlight from the beginning of the name up to the end at the bottom and delete
• Paste what you copied from the other file earlier at the bottom end
• The pasted text will appear in red
• Now click 'save as...' from File and save it as 'xy.pat' to your desktop
• Then cut the xy.pat file and paste it into your memorystick in the F:/FREECHEAT/patch folder directory

Step 6:

• Just bear with me, the conversion is almost complete
• Start up your MH Unite
• Load up the SuperDuperPope
• Then press the music note button to bring up the FREECHEAT menu
• Select 'Mem Manager'
• Select 'Load MEM Patch'
• Select 'xy.pat'
• and if all it done as instructed, the conversion is almost complete

Final Step:

• Now all you have to do is get your character's appearance back
• Just change a piece of equipment and voila!
• Note: The FREECHEAT and seplugins folder can now safely be deleted, you can now place your original seplugins you kept in your PC as instructed if you had any to begin with
  

There are some bugs but nothing i find should be in need of worrying
Though you can check 'em out at JG's guide (its on the bottom)

Credits:
JG for making this conversion possible
and Capcom for this awesome game :D

Making guide's are tiresome D:
