So, a new Pokémon Ranger game was announced. That's cool with me, because I really liked the first game. I wonder, though, how many people'll get this one since it's possible that there won't be any sort of tie-in with Pokémon Diamond and Pearl like the original Ranger had. Be cool if they did, tho.
I got to play a couple demos of some new DS games. Jam Sessions was cool, and if I cared enough, it might be fun to buy it and totally pwn my brother at playing guitar. Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword is fucking awesome. I can't wait 'till it comes out.

Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword is fucking awesome. I can't wait 'till it comes out. Hmm, I haven't heard about that game yet, could be worth a look. Is it side-scroller 2d style or more contemporary Xbox style Ninja Gaiden? I'm guessing the first but would be happy either way

How have you not heard of this? It's been big news for like, a year now!
It's a fully 3D game. You play the game book-style, like Hotel Dusk, and play (almost) entirely with the styles. Point to move. Swipe across an enemy to attack. Point at an enemy to throw a shruiken. When you wanna use your NINJUMAJIKZ, you point to the icon on the screen, and then have to draw the proper character before unleashing hell. You press a button to block, and then can dodge by blocking and moving.
It's pretty cool, tho. Enemies pop outta nowhere and get their asses kicked quite handily, and boss fights are insane. At least, I think it was a boss in the demo. Might've been a mid-boss. Big fucking dragon. Craziness.

I'm going to play this one safe by having my R4 pull through. Can't have another Tenchu: Dark Secret incident...

You're comparing Ninja Gaiden to Tenchu? Really? I mean, really?

Your opinion is in question here.

You're comparing Ninja Gaiden to Tenchu? Really? I mean, really? Yeah, I think Moto is on a safe track on this one. I'm looking forward to this! I don't know how they'll pull it off, but I don't think Team Ninja will make their trip to Nintendoland on the DS a shitty one.

New CastleVania for the DS? Tits.
And why the angry face for AW:DoR?

New rumored Castlevania along with rumored Wii connectivity. ...and found out Advance Wars may have been pushed back 2 days from 1/21 to 1/23. GameFAQs said 1/21 for awhile then said 1/23 yesterday, then changed back today to 1/21. GameStop says 1/21, www.advancewars.com says 1/23

I second Moto's "tits" declaration for a new DS Castlevania, and this time, it's a CHICK, and not some androgynous little ponce! ;D
