FINAL FANTASY X-2

yuna
When did FFX-2 come out (^_^?) Back in 2003, it's been sitting on my shelf unplayed for a long time! I spent 200+ hrs on FFX and was super physced to play the sequal.... but when the time came i got my ps3, and it just sat there. But no longer!
I am seriously loving it \(^_^!)/
It's great going back to all the old places and seeing how everything has changed now that Sin has been defeated!
It's just like ffx how there are SOOOOO many freakin secrets and special ways that missions have to be done to unlock the cool items and dress spheres, so if you can find a guide GRAB IT! I'm playing through with Rikku as a gun mage & thief, Paine is a gunner & white mage while Yuna lays the magical smack down as a black mage & a warrior.

Anime figurines (^_^!)

Photobucket

In the long long ago, i use to ask myself.... "where's the best place to buy anime figurines?" The answer was ebay, and my god, what a god damn mine field. Crazy prices, dodgy figures with wonky limbs and horrible paint jobs. Quality! where was the quality! what a nightmare. No, they weren't all bad, but unless you actually knew what you were after, it was hard to just find cool random figures.

Luckily, i had a friend turn me to a site called hobbysearch. AND, they are fricken awesome! check em out. http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/

Mostly, you have to pre-order the figures because they're all limited edition. But there are alot of buy now stuff too. The quality is beyond awesome (^_^!) Your figure will arrive to you very well packaged box!

Rage PS3

Photobucket
Rage is one of those games that after being released, quickly ends up on the bargin shelf. It coped a lot of flack, (haters gona hate) People (stupid teens) were spouting that it was a "shit FPS" but technically, it's an RPG. It did how ever, have a massive manditory install, on PS3, it was 8GB. Just lucky i did that HD upgrade otherwise i wouldn't have been able to install it! Why such a big install you ask (^_^?)
Well, i dunno?!? LOLZ, so it runs smooth! man, it has some seriously clear graphics, it really works the high def! it's nice. You know how say, when you're playing fallout and you use the sniper rifle to look into the distance and objects (trees and people and stuff) will slowly appear out of nothingness, well in rage there's no load in, the world is there, all the time, even the shit way off in the distance. nice, niiice.

How to put a bigger HDD in your PS3

ps3 upgrade

If you're like me and bought your ps3 in the long long ago then you're also probably running out of space on your Harddrive. Time to put a new one in, and WOW, did i have a lot of trouble doing this, well, not with 'changing the HDD' but with trying to backup the data on my ps3. As you may/may not know, the ps3 only reads HDD's with fat32 format, and you can only format a 32gb partition of fat32 before it wants to change it to 'exfat' format, and i had 56gb of data and no way to back it up.
Noobs on forums are all like 'just format it to fat32' but hello deuchebag, you can't. window's won't allow it. I did a bunch of google searches like this: ps3 wont read my hdd exfat, not enough room on fat32 to backup my ps3 data, can ps3 read exfat with an update, programs that create fat32 partition windows 7, what hdd can i use to backup my ps3, ect ect
It took me 3 hours to sort it all out, so, i shall now share with you the fruits of my labour.
Firstly, backup your data, how to do it (^_^?) I used a 300gb external HD that i bought on ebay years ago, some cheap chinese no-brand kinda deal, i plugged it into my computer and did this.

Aliens Vs Predator ps3

Photobucket

A multi-player romp, not the best way to introduce a game, so in 2010 after having played the demo i decided not to bother with this game, unimpressed with this game i was yes much. But since the long wait for colonial marines just keeps getting longer and longer i had to satisfy my needs like some gutter junkie so i bought aliens vs predator hoping that it wasn't going to suck too much balls. (oh if you're thinking heeey thats not a pic from the game, no, no it's not. end)
I was blown away by how good this game was! Straight off the bat it delivers some super awesome atmosphere! Blam! sound effects from the movies! Spooky lighting, bleeps on my motion tracker! Looks like someone bagged one of Ripley's bad guys (^_^!)

Replacing vacuum hoses on the R32

Photobucket

R32 Skyline vacumm hose replacement.
I've been having some really annoying phantom boost issues lately with Zoe, (that's her name, and well if you don't name your car then your just some schmuck.) She'll boost up fine but then someimes it'll all go awry and the needle will bounce all over the gauge, so the first thing that comes to mind is a vacuum leak! But where is the leak comming from? So many hoses and clamps to check! I had a look on the skyline forums and most people said to run the car and spray water on the hoses to find a hissing noise or see bubbles.... honestly i couldn't be bothered doing that sort of shit, the hoses on the intercooler look hunky-dory so i'm just gona jump straight in and replace the hoses from the actuator & turbo to the boost controller. A meter of 6mm fuel hose is only $7.95 so you know, it's not expensive.

Comming from an old school V8 background i don't really know shit about turbo's. I'm much more comfortable with a holley to play with, the difference between a 351 clevo and an RB20 are pretty damn huge! The first time i popped the bonnet i was like 'whats all this stuff and whats it do (^_^?) But now that i've had her for 5 years i'm alot more comfortable with her workings, but i still miss all the space in the engine bay the old cars have!

Yuna may have to go on a pilgrimage to pray to the fayth so she can get some totally kick arse Aeons, Dark souls sends you on a pilgrimage to ring some bells... hell's bells more like! And guarded by some super tough enemies. Even the lowliest enemy can and will KILL you if you take them too lightly. This is a sword game for sure (or axe, spear ect depending on your palate) but don't think that hacking and slashing will get you anywhere.... but dead!

       I've read so much retarded bullshit about games lately, a sad lot of miss informed under educated gamers love to jump on forums and trash talk games that haven't even been released yet, like Aliens colonial marines (which i think is going to be really good) Everyone has opinions just like they have arseholes and the internet is like a wall sprayed with diarrhea shit. Trying to argue a point with these cream puffs is pretty much useless as tiny timmy will call you a c*nt and say "come at me bro".
