Carter 259 - Noble Team
“Birth of a Spartan” will give us the chance to see the story of the captain of the Noble Team Carter 259 and how he was trained and later on how he did become a spartan soldier.

Bungie has been delightful with the Halo ads before, the Halo 3 Diorama, the Halo ODST and so on, i hope this new ad to be as good as previous ads, personally i am excited to see this tomorrow and i know i am not the only one, until next time, keep dreaming!
Hello gaming lovers, we are a few days away to try and taste the long awaited Halo Reach Multiplayer Beta (may 3rd) and Microsoft made public the details of the 3 versions available for the Halo Reach Game, which to be honest have me drooling for it! we will have a Standard, Limited and Legendary editions with a nice amount of collectibles for the limited and legendary bundles which im sure will make many fans happy when the game comes out.
Standard Edition:
basically you get a dvd, manual, case.. if you are not interested in the bonus content and just want play the game this is the version you want go for (not the edition i will go for, MUHA)
Limited Edition:
This version comes with some nice bundled bonus items for collectors out there, such as
* Game disc housed in recovered ONI ā€¯black boxā€¯
* An exclusive in-game Elite armor set for use in multiplayer modes
* Artifact bag containing Dr. Halseyā€™s personal journal and other classified documents and effects that unravel long held secrets from the Halo Universe
Halo Reach Limited Edition
Legendary Edition:
My personal choice and the most expensive version which include everything from the Limited Edition plus an awesome and highly detailed diorama statue of the team from Halo Reach, something collectors will value a lot, specially because is limited to 1000 pieces.
* Noble Team statue expertly crafted by the artisans at McFarlane Toys. Individually molded, hand-painted and individually numbered, this statuette is a must have for any serious Halo fan
* UNSC-themed custom packaging
* An exclusive multiplayer Spartan armor effect
The estimate prices for each are $59.99 for the Standard Edition, $79.99 for the Limited Edition and $149.99 for the Legendary Edition of the game, now all you have to do is pick your poison and have fun with it!
personaly i think they did a great job with these editions, much more than the Halo 3 editions making many fans angry thinking Legendary Edition would contain everything from the Limited Edition (which did not) i am thrilled to get my copy.. to hold the statue in my hands (and maybe sleep with it next to me in the next days after that) thanks for reading and keep dreaming!

P.S. leaving you with this awesome ViDoc from bungie, enjoy!
Time to get this ball rolling! It’s spring, and it’s 2010. That means one thing: (I know there are other things that occur this spring, but that’s not my focus and can go kiss off!) New anime. This season brings us several new series, but also new seasons from past series such as: K-on!, Ikki Tousen, Big Windup!, and Shin Koihimeā€ MusŨ. Now let me state that I will NOT be reviewing Big Windup!, or Giant Killing as sports anime have never been my thing… (I just can not watch them, for whatever reason they just don’t sit well with me.) After writing that line… I decided that for the good of the review I will watch them, along with 2 other shows that will more than likely end with my blood all over the parking lot of some school… What will we get? Will I love or hate some of the series? I could not tell you. I think though I will break this down into parts, this being Part 1: Intro, going until Part w/e: My Thoughts About This Season. So for now, I’m going to queue some episodes, and get rolling on this thing!
The known anime-media distribution website Crunchyroll has aquired the rights to stream, download and sell merchandise from the show “The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya”, “Melancholy of Haruhi-chan Suzumiya2, and “NyorŨn Churuya-san” anime “for multiple Crunchyroll platforms.
The shows will first be available on the subscription streaming service followed by the public streaming service, with their license they will have the rights to distribute merchandise in North and South America, the British Isles, Scandinavia, the Middle East, and Africa.
This sure will make Haruhi happy
The first 4 episodes of the show are available for stream now and by the look of it they will also stream the second season of the show.
Bandai still hold the rights for the DVD releases and they hope this will increase the populrity of the show and the sales for new DVD releases.
Hello gaming lovers, as most of you know microsoft released a mandatory update today, this allow us to use usb flash drives to store media such as game saves, arcade games and more for a total of 16gb, if not what many hoped it is a great addition and a good feature for our consoles but i believe this is contradictory to Microsoft and their recent update to ensure 3rd party memory units will not be used in the Xbox 360.
It is a good move against pirated memory cards (which i encourage) but not 3rd party memory cards like Datel, and the most recent dispute versus Datel generic control pads make me think it is all related to some degree, cant be dennied.. the similarity of the “TurboFire” and “WildFire” models to the original Xbox 360 control pads is extreme, and from there Microsoft’s lawsuit but my big concern and complain is the bad use of the turbo fire feature in these Datel control pads which is awful.
for old consoles without online capabilites having a little boost in your games was fun and sometimes helpful to beat a level or 2 but in today’s gaming with a big amount of players going into multiplayer how are these control pads with turbo fair at all?
sadly this has been ignored by the developers from game companies (sales over fair play? yeah i think so), and i have to side with Microsoft on this as i dont find fair at all as a legit player you spend time to learn and practice in a game to be good at it to face someone with a turbo fire button killing you in seconds while you wonder “ok.. he killed me with 2 BR shots how is that possible?!” it is when you are but a cheater…
example of Datel’s turbofire in action
Hate to give this lame player hits but i dont cheat on multiplayer so i cant make a video to demonstrate myself, on the bright side CHEERS to Microsoft for giving us (even if it’s not what we hoped for) the chance to carry our files in USB flash drives, for that i salute you! until next time and keep dreaming!
