The Hobbit 48fps Review

The Hobbit, there are those who love it, and those who loathe it! And those who haven't seen it but have felt the need to jump on the hobbit bash wagon under the flag of the ones who have named it 'the floppit' bah, fools!
So, The Hobbit, is it good yah or nay (^_^?) who to believe?!?
The answer is obvious! Go to the movie and make up your own mind! That is the best way, but here, allow me to share my thoughts on the movie with you.
I found the movie to be, rather..... AWESOME (^_^!) The 48fps made everything super clear! polished, shiny like a kingdom crystal, but not to clear that it's bad, just the right amount of sharpness. The 3D was put to good use on subtle things, like embers from a fire and less subtle things like the flying moth, over all it was used quite well.
I've heard alot of people complain about the lenght and that some scenes weren't necessary. I felt it went for a good amount of time, and was engaging the whole way through. The few back stories into Thorin and the dwarves past were good, they help to build both the characters and the plot. So no complaints from me. I didn't mind seeing Frodo in the begining either.
What did i like about the movie (^_^?) N#1 it would be the wargs! They looked magnificent! so, so evil! It was great to see Gandalf again, and he used some magic in this which was nice i thought. The elvish blades they found were super cool, and from Gondolin! woooooo! It was cool to hear alot of name drops after having read all the books and played most of the games, i was able to conjure up images in my mind (^_^!)
I also noticed that Radagsts staff looks HEAPS like the staff Gandalf has in the fellowship of the ring! So maybe there is a cool staff plot twist ahead! And i can't wait to see what happens at Dol Guldur! Epic battles ahead!
Bilbo! I think they casted Bilbo's role perfectly! Watson, (Martin Freeman) brilliant! He plays such a good hobbit!
I enjoyed the hobbit and can't wait for the second movie! (and hopefully an extended version of this one!)

Seirei no Moribito

There are alot of great animes that fly under the mainstream radar, they don't get alot of advertising and you don't see them for sale on the shelves of your local store, which is a shame.
Seirei no Moribito, or 'Guardian of the sacred spirit' is one such gem of an anime! It follows the story of the heroine Balsa as she guards the young prince Chagum from a sinister plot to assassinate him. Why assassinate him you ask (^_^?) An ancient water spirit resides within Chagums body, the water spirit is a creature of legend, they know no truths abouts its purpose, and through out the series the secrets are slowly revealed.
Balsa is an exceptional spear master, making her a formidable opponent for her foes. Not only does she wield strenght, but kindness and wisdom also. It is a very thoughtful anime with an inspiring story containing moral and philosophical undertones.

FINAL FANTASY X-2

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 (^_^!)

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

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

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

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 (^_^!)
