Bargin bin
I love bargin prices on video games. Yeah I'm cheap and I don't care. Awhile back my girlfriends son and I were discussing pricing in the bin. He said any game that is in there is priced so low because it sucked and didn't sell. But later on he found a game he wanted that I had in the bargin bin. I looked at him and said "Doesn't suck does it?". He didn't like that I brought this up, but it's a point I like to make.

catching up
due to illness and other family issues my blog suffered so I'm trying hard to get stuff up here as fast as possible. Maybe 2 a day or every other day for right now.
Bring us Miles Edgeworth
Capcom stated they would not be brining the second Miles Edgeworth to the US awhile back. Something has been bothering me about this since they made the statement. It was stated it may be brought to a different platfrom and nothing is certian. Does this mean they wanted to see how the 3ds market would work and give us a 3d Miles? I hope not, I really can't stand 3d to begin with plus the cost of a 3ds is not worth it. I really don't think any of the Ace Attorney games have gotten the coverage they need here in North America. The truth is I didn't even know about the Pheonix games until I saw one in Best Buy. Since then I have loved the games and want more.
oh subtitles why do you fail me
Ok so I'm going to mention a little pet peeve of mine, the lack of subtitles in key parts of games. Recently I started playing JL Heros for the psp. One of the things that really bugs me is the lack of subtitles for the cut scenes. Why does this bother me? Because my head phone jack doesn't fit right in my psp and I can't use ear buds. Other games have this same issues as well such as the first Persona. Now God of War does a decent job with subtitles as well, but sometimes there is a word or two that doesn't get put in. The other problem is having to dig for the subtitle menu or even worse downloading a movie from the psn only to find out it doesn't include subtitles. I'm just glad Netflix started to add this in for the streaming.

Are psp minis worth the money?
I recently started thinking about this when I bought a game off the psn store called Bunny Dodge. It's a little to cutsey for my tastes and nothing like I thought it would be. I've bought plenty of minis to play while taking care of buisness and not all are that bad.
There is a down side to many of the minis and hence their title they are to short. Another part of the problem is the a few of the games look out of date for what graphics can do. What worries me the most is how many games are going to become cross platform and can be played on any console or handheld. Keeping in mind the current state of Iphone and Ipad games I'm suprised we haven't seen a glut of these appear yet.
So what do my readers think of this subject?

A little info
So I'm trying to get in to where I can start doing my thoughts on games as well as other things. Ya never know what is going to pop up in here. I do have a twitter now, never thought I would even have one, but there are people who do have interesting thoughs I would like to see.
For me gaming is in the forms of my pc,psp, ds, no games on the phone. I don't want to pay for the game plus data charges just for downloading. Normaly I play rpgs with some fighters and maybe gambeling games thrown in. Some games people may have played by now or may not have. I try to find stuff that isn't to kiddy because after a long time with a ds I got tired of all the cuteness. Here's to blood,guts, and glory.

Being HOH sucks
In case you didn't know HOH stands for hard of hearing. The worst part of it is how much in life you miss out on. From movies, to music, to simple everyday sounds it makes you feel left out of life.
I love how people think that your just ignoring them or you have selective hearing. It's far from the truth. You hear what you can and in some cases it may be funny, but frustrating.
Let's take youtube and it's closed captioning. The other day I went to watch a video and had to turn on Spansh CC to watch in English CC. WTF???!!! It's bad enough when one of the chanels I watch gets screwed up so much and I have to watch it twice.
By the way in case most people think they are funny, just because I'm HOH doesn't mean you have to say something and be a smartass by saying something else if I ask you to repeat yourself. Yeah I know a few people who do this but I understand because they live with me and get frustrated, but that doesn't give everyone in the world to do it.
