  1. Everyone remembers the legend of the "FFVII" game? Well they are making a prequel to the game staring Zack as the main character. And Im definitely getting this game, because I love the FF VII series. I hope this game will be as good as the game I called a legend, because it sets a standard for a lot of rpgs out there today.
    Well here is a article on the game off a site, this is info about the game during E3 of this year.

    LOS ANGELES--Square Enix showed off what it called a "Compilation of Final Fantasy VII," which is a collection of products set in the Final Fantasy VII universe. One of the titles shown was Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII, a spin-off for the PlayStation Portable that focuses on the role Soldier and Sephiroth played in Project Genesis--specifically the character of Zack. Square Enix showed a lengthy trailer for the game, and we're bringing you the details.
    Crisis Core is a prequel to Final Fantasy VII that tells the story of Zack, a young recruit working for Soldier, the elite private military of the Shinra Corporation. Zack is eager to prove himself and achieve first rank in the organization. However, an older character who seems to be somewhat of a mentor to Zack tries to temper the young fighter's eagerness.

    The trailer showed lots of heated discussions between Zack and this other character, and eventually Sephiroth came into the picture. Sephiroth is a legendary soldier, and Zack vows to be even stronger. Eventually Zack and Sephiroth meet and Project Genesis is mentioned, and it seems to be a point of contention within the organization.

    Very little actual gameplay was shown in the trailer, but from what we did see, it seems that the game is very action-oriented. The combat sequences are fast, and we saw several moments where Zack jumped from one enemy to another, slashing with his sword as well as using a gun.

    There was no sign of Cloud in the game, but Sephiroth made several appearances. Most notable was the sequence that closed the trailer, which showed Zack and Sephiroth battling with swords. The two clashed blades and Zack vowed to defeat Sephiroth, but of course Sephiroth would have none of that, and he effortlessly flung the young soldier aside.

    Crisis Core is still currently in development, but both the rendered cinematics and the in-game footage look sharp. The world is dark and sterile, much like the headquarters of the Shinra corporation in Midgar in the original Final Fantasy VII. We'll bring you more details as soon as they become available, but for now, be sure to take a look at our gamespace for some brand-new screenshots of the game.



  2. I just read a article at a game site and it seems like logitech has released a new mouse that is wireless and features 2000dpi for extra smooth tracking. Its a super gaming mouse, but is it necessary? As of now I am using a Razor Chamelon gaming mouse. I prefer wired mouse for some odd reason, well maybe its because I hate the hassle of wireless mouses battery changes every now and then, plus its not like my mouse is going to be that far from my computer. Well here is the article for you guys to read, Im surprised they would charge 100 dollars for a little mouse.


    Logitech G7 Laser Cordless Mouse PreviewWith a 2000dpi resolution, 500Hz report rate, and swappable batteries, the Logitech G7 Laser Cordless Mouse might be the best wireless gaming mouse yet.

    It seems like it was just yesterday when people were complaining about the high cost of wireless laser mice, but cutting-edge mouse technology doesn't come cheap. Logitech has raised the bar even higher with the first $100 mouse. With a 2000dpi resolution, 500Hz report rate, and swappable batteries, the Logitech G7 Laser Cordless Mouse might be the best wireless gaming mouse yet.


    The Logitech G7 Laser Cordless Mouse looks more blue-grey in real life.

    Logitech's previous flagship laser mouse, the Logitech MX1000, is still a fine pointing device, but the 800dpi mouse is starting to show its age, compared to the faster, higher-resolution mice available today. The new G7 mouse features a 2000dpi resolution for extra-smooth tracking, and you can shift sensitivity on the fly with two buttons located beneath the scrollwheel. Like the corded Logitech G5 mouse, the G7 moves across the mousing surface extremely well, thanks to new, extra-large polytertrafluoroethylene (DuPont calls it Teflon) feet and an outrigger foot for extra stability.

    The G7 retains the built-in battery life indicator, but Logitech has improved power management by packaging the mouse with two rechargeable battery packs. That way, you'll always have a fully charged battery ready when your mouse starts running low on juice. It only takes a couple of seconds to flip the mouse over, press a small button to eject the battery, and slide the replacement in its place.

    The Logitech G7 Laser Cordless Mouse will be available in September with an MSRP of $99.99.

  3. Damn, why does new things always come out during the time when I buy a new computer. This sould very interesting. I just bought a Dual Core Intel Alienware computer. Now they are releasing a new type of Dual Core system? Just my luck to be again, left behind the technology department. I was hoping I got the newest tech out for just a minute, but nope something just have to pop up around the corner.Thats technology for you though, new things pop up very fast and you can never really keep up to date with things now a days. =(


  4. The need for speed series is always fun for me. I like the mode where you just escape from cops. For some reason the cop chasing races are always really fun to me. I dont paticulary have it for the PC but I do have it for the console system. Games like this I dont feel right playing it on a PC, I rather play it on an HDTV and Dobly Digital surround system to really feel the experiance of the game.


  5. I will be getting this game for sure. I have no PS2, and Tekken was my all time favorite since playstation. So this is a must have for me since they are having all the oldie chracters return. I also here there are tons of mini games in there, but the real drive for me to get this game is because its for the PSP. Portable TEkken anyone. Also the coolest feature ever made for a game like this is that only one person needs the game if you want to play wireless Vs mode.


  6. I have played both and I believe that although Guild Wars is not a true MMORPG it is probably the best option in terms of game fun financial free experiance for you. World of Warcraft is more "im in a fantasy world" while Guild Wars is more like "Im playing a game." Thats how I diffrentiate the two. Guild Wars is fun with friends, and expecially concentrated on PvP. If your the type that likes to PvE than Guild Wars might not be a long lasting game that can keep you happy with its replayability.They recently released a FACTIONS expansion version of the game where I believe is more concentrated on the PvP side of things, where the people that are intersted in the the PvE side is left in a short fix type of mode.World of Warcraft when I played it was fun but I was not really attached to it because of its no so detailed graphics. I mean if its trying to look like a fantasy cartoon, at least give the characters more polygons, or make it look something like KINGDOM HEARTS (PS2) graphics which is what I believe World of Warcraft was trying to do.I personally play a game because it looks beautiful, but when playing World of Warcraft I was really turned off with the graphics the whole time. Its replayability can be fun where you can raid towns and all and go in large groups to take down giant bosses. But its not eye catching to me so that drove me away. I know that should not be the reason, but everyone has their own reasons for not liking a game.If I were you and you wanted a casual game play experiance during your financial instability, I would go with Guild Wars. You pay once, and can play forever. If you have friends your game experiance with the game will be much more worth while.


  7. This is possible the best host I have ever had. After going through probably 10 different type of hosts in the past 7 years. I find this place the best and as FREE as it can get. It has so many features that will make your jaw drop, because when I got into the control panel for the first time I was like WHAT THE?!? I didnt even know what to do with all these features available to us.The reason its the best? NO ADS PERIOD. And all you need to do to keep your host? Post, and stay active in the forums. It maybe hard at first to join, but it is well worth it. With all that they have to offer, once your finally hosted you will understand fully why this will be the best host you can possibly find for the price of 0.00.


  8. Hello everyone,

    I would like you guys to know that I asked a question on here today about reccomendations on a computer and I finnally made a final decision and went out and bought a computer. The deal that Alienware had just made it final. The deal was, if I buy a computer I get FREE SHIPPING and FREE LEXMARK 3-1 PRINTER. All for around 2 grand. Even better was this is a package with a 17" LCD MONITOR. So I went ahead and post the specs of my newly bought computer below.

     

    I would like you guys to post a comment about if I made a good choice in buying a computer for this price. Postive and negative comments are welcomed. :D

  9. I would have to say that the best fighting series out there would have to be street fighter. A street fighter game never fails to entertain me whereever I go to play it. Its basically like a standard for fighting games. All other games seem to bite off its theme, for example RYU, many characters in many fighting games seem to be having resemblances to ryu whether it be the bandanna or the infamous hadoken fireball. There also seem to be games that try to imitate or be a evovled version of the shoryuken.So street fighter for me would have to be a good game no matter the situation.


  10. I remember the time when my graphics card when I was playing a graphics intensive game. The area where my graphics card would be would be really hot and it will automatically shut down my laptop. Like it was a emergency shut down. What I did to remedy the problem was I blew the dust build up out of the graphics fan with a air can. And it somewhat helped the problem. But I eventually had to replace it because it was out of commision. Rule number 1 of playing graphiclly intesive game with a weak graphics card, make sure you give your computer a good "break time" because over use might damage it.


  11. Although im currently using a laptop right now for a computer, I prefer a desktop because with it you can do so much more and have much more power too. Laptops are overpriced and are limited in power, but features a on the go experiance for computer users. Desktops can be upgraded so you dont have to to go out and by a whole new computer every few years, so that would be my reasoning why I would perfer desktops over laptops. Im actually going to be getting a desktop computer as soon as the time is right for me. Because I believe new upgrades and computer stuff should be coming out soon. So I wanna make sure that I will be getting the most recent hardware before I actually go an upgrade myself to another computer.


  12. Button mashing is fine. If your boyfriend cannot beat you while you mash like that, then he just really isnt good at that fighting game to begin with. Most fighting games cannot be button mashed though, a veteran player or player that are of intermediate level can easily beat a button masher just by waiting for a opening to attack. So to put it plain and simple he probably just isnt that good at the game. =P


  13. hahaha, pokemon. I always despised it when I was young. But when my mom brought home a a gameboy (the old school no color bulky one) she found at work with pokemon in it. I actually found the game kind of fun. Its basically like a Final Fantasy game but with pets that are fighting. Those were the days, now everytime I hear it or see it I be embarrased that I actually liked it. haha...


  14. mySQL is just like SQL, a structured query language to manage databases. Here is a more detailed description of it:

    SQL is an ANSI (American National Standards Institute) standard computer language for accessing and manipulating database systems. SQL statements are used to retrieve and update data in a database. SQL works with database programs like MS Access, DB2, Informix, MS SQL Server, Oracle, Sybase, etc.
    Unfortunately, there are many different versions of the SQL language, but to be in compliance with the ANSI standard, they must support the same major keywords in a similar manner (such as SELECT, UPDATE, DELETE, INSERT, WHERE, and others).


    For more information about SQL and other sources of programming questions, refer to this place, this is where I learn most of my stuff.

  15. Im thinking sooner or later an asteroid will probably eventually hit us and end our lives just like it did the dinosaurs. I heard a while ago that a asteroid almost hit us and we didnt even know about it. But if and asteroid dont kill us then the solar system probably will. Our sun is dying right now, and we will eventually be sucked in a black hole. But that wont happen for another millions or billions of years though from what I learned in schooll. But that leads me into another theory, with all our advances in technology we will probably eventually find a way to transport to other galaxies and such. But one of the most likely things to happen would probably be a war.


  16. I heard AIM has its own browser in the newest version. Wow, seems like everyone is starting a make in the browser buisiness. If only, all the competitors would just collaborate their ideas, and come up with a superior browser. Because now a days, we are stuck with beta browsers with bugs and exploits. And each and everyone has its unique features that make them good. Im hoping their is someone that can collaborate all the ideas into one. Hmmm, maybe google, haha...seems like they been developing all the superior stuff lately.


  17. When reading this topic it reminds me of a movie about how one person that was immortal and had to live just to see people he cared about die. They die because they were not immortal like him, and he suffered this type of emotional distress everytime he found someone new or started a new life. But somehow something happened to him which I dont remember but he eventually started to age, and when he died he died with a smile. I guess, there is a subliminal message saying, having eternal life may not be that great when you have soo much to lose. Its better to live life with what you got and live your life to the fullest until its over.


  18. I havent gotten a virus for awhile lately, but it seems like my computer has been acting akwardly for the past week. Norton ran a scan and looks like I have no virus, but ever since I got the new windows XP update for IE, I've been having weird start up problems with my computer. For example, my computer will start up normally, but when its done loading all the taskbar start ups, and when I try to open a program like AIM or IE or any other program for that matter it would have that "hour glass" and nothin would happen. And eventually my computer would get stuck, so only option for me is to "POWER" shut down. I dont know if thats a virus that snuck its way into my computer but Im probably going to have to reformat my computer again. If it was caused by the Update for xp, Im going to refrain from the further updates because I hate having to reformat my computer with all the stuff I already have on it and have to back up.


  19. Me and a friend was just talking about this the other day. We heard there was a test on a shark and how they injected the shark with something which cured the shark of cancer. Im not quite sure of the specifics but we were just amazed on how people come up with this type of stuff. I mean who would think that we could test a shark to slowly develop a theory to cure cancer.


  20. I believe that when you listen to mp3 players you should listen to it under normal volume conditions. Whats the point of blasting it when the ear piece to the mp3 player is already in your ear? Its not like you are going to feel any bass from it. I see many people blasting the music in their ear peice, and I was like, hes probably going to go deaf. Haha, but I also considered that that person might be having a hearing disorder and that is the only way they would be able to hear the music.I also believe that certain music that is blasted can cause hearing impairity. Probably music like Rock n Roll or other high pitched sounds that can harm your ear drums. But then again people should really listen to music at a normal level where they dont need to turn it so loud.


  21. I believe your photographs are good enough to be MODIFIED. Because most professional photographs that I see from professionals they seem to have take a raw picture and modified it with a picture editing software such as Photoshop. Making the picture more polished and unique. Some options you can try to edit the ones you have is an angle change in photoshop or cropping does wonders too...


  22. Firefox have many cool features that is not as buggy as IE, but it also limits some of the design code that can only be viewed in IE. The new IE does seems to have potential in competing with firefox because it seems like they are completely making over IE and making it similar to firefox. We will just have to wait to see how IE will turn on when its finished and out of beta version to really rate the two browsers. But I believe for now that firefox is the better browser in terms of security and efficiency...
