Okie Dokie then!
5 days since the last post and I appear again, how cool is that? Come on, I know you've been dying to hear from me hehe ^_^ Anyhow, I've just come to report that I've updated my website, completely revamped the layout and added some new sections and removing some old ones. To be honest I love my work, only downside is I rarely get visitors -_- Anyhow...it's up there and maybe one day someone will come along and be a dedicated visitor.
Ah well, on a lighter note, I've completed Game One: Colette (as I've dubbed it) of Tales of Symphonia, now I have two more playthroughs (4 if you count that I need to actually get the titles...so 3 more playthroughs would be appropriate) before I have a perfect game with everything in it. That's right, next on my list is to complete Game Two: Zelos, which means I'm going base the game on everything to do with Zelos, so that I get all his scenes and all the info I need on him to complete this fanfic I've decided to write.
Right I think that's about it, thanks for reading those of you who do (you know who you are *wink wink*)
Take Care

My first time E-Baying
Yesterday was my first time E-Baying, and it didn't go too well. In fact it left me very upset and wanting to hunt down the person who fucked me over and do unspeakable things to them. No, I wasn't cheated out of money, which in itself is a good thing. Something much worse happened:
I lost the bid on the ONE game I have been looking for since its release around 7 years ago. The name of this game is Destrega, and I fell in love with it from the moment I played its demo. However, upon release, this game was practically nowhere to be seen in shops and it definately was released in the UK...my suspicion is that they didn't think it'd sell very well and opted to take the safe route of releasing a small number of copies.
Afte searching and searching, I finally decided to take a look at E-Bay and found it; only 3 copies. I went for the cheapest one and was pretty close to getting it, until some other bidder stuck their oar in at 4 seconds to zero hour. I had no chance of placing a higher bid! And now, I'm back at square one, waiting for another copy of Destrega, the ever elusive game, to make an appearance...*cries*
On a bigger note, I seriously think that E-Bay should ban the ability to bid when there is less than 1 minute left. It's truly unfair on the person who has placed their bid earlier and has been waiting for the countdown to end, only to have the carpet pulled from under them within the last few seconds *continues crying*

Tales of Symphonia Fans: REJOICE! Oh...and some other news...
So, I'm browsing AnimeNewsNetwork.com and I come across a little tidbit concerning Tales of Symphonia. Apparently, there was a rumour sometime back about there being an Anime/OVA based on the title in production, however this was a misinterpretation of the news concerning the animated cut-scenes in the game.
I'm sure most ToS fans will remeber that; well...even if you don't, there you go, there was a misinterpreted rumour.
So, concerning the title of this post, why should fans rejoice? Well, there really is an Animated OVA in production, and is slated for release sometime next year. Isn't that just fantastic? *squees in delight* Fans, including myself, will now know which is the real storyline in the game, i.e. did he really die? It seems most probable.
And oh my, I have yet to complete my second playthrough and move onto the third! Argh! But before that, I need to complete SMT: Lucifer's Call and Xenosaga II! Now that I've mentioned Xenosaga II, I always think about why Xenosaga I was never released in the UK. I mean isn't it just plain stupid and retarded to release the second in the series, when the first never even made it past the USA? Same goes for Suikoden IV. The first three never even touched our shores ¬.¬
As for some other news, as of July 6th 2006, Rapture TV will be airing Mezzo DSA on Thursdays, replacing Wolf's Rain. From July 22nd 2006, the UK will be able to watch Naruto on Jetix. To be honest, I was a Naruto fan and caught every fansubbed episode, until they started going into the long and crappy Filler Arc. I'm planning on catching up...soon.
Oh and here's something to roll your eyes at: a 49-year-old female teacher/mother of two, had an affair with a 14-year-old male pupil. She is sentenced for some time in jail and has been banned from teaching in future. Disgusting.

Baten Kaitos Complete, and some NewGrounds stuff
Hi all!
I have been meaning to post this up for some time, but stuff kept comin in the way, in other words...I was lazy.
Anyhow, I finally completed Baten Kaitos: Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean a few days back, and have since started playing Shin Megami Tensei: Lucifer's Call (Nocturne for the Americans and Japanese). Baten Kaitos, is by far the only game I have taken a good number of months completing. I'm usually done in a couple of days, two weeks at most, but in this circumstance I was busy, since I started playing this during University. So, as the work started to pile up and the deadlines got closer, I had to shelve Baten Kaitos and pick it up as soon as I finished University.
My Verdict on the Game: A real gem, and a must have for RPG enthusiasts who want one for their GameCube (Tales of Symphonia being the absolute MUST HAVE).
The voice acting is a main issue, it's pretty decent but when emotional scenes occur, they seem to skewer off and ruin the mood. Very reminiscent of the 3x3 Eyes Anime; decent voice acting, just very bad when emotion is required.
That's the only fault in the game, everything else is fantastic. Gorgeous graphics and an extremely beautiful soundtrack. You're bound to find your favourite song in no time. Storyline was refreshing, something I have never really come across in the game. At the risk of sounding cliche, there are too many twists to count and all questions are answered, so you aren't left hanging at the end.
Now for the really long-awaited stuff. Near the beginning of my holiday, my brothers were browsing NewGrounds and came across some Mortal Kombat flash videos. These were quite amusing and pretty well done, you can find them here:
Mortal Kombat Crossovers
Raiden's Crossover
Liu Kang's Crossover
Mortal Kombat Vs. Street Fighter
MK Vs. SF
MK Vs. SF 2
And here's a pretty amusing Stick-Man fight that my brother showed me a while back:
Animator Vs. Animation
Enjoy the goodies :D
