Goals.

Many people have goals that they have a desire to see attained, then all of a sudden they either lose sight of those goals or they mysteriously forget them or something drastic hinders them.


There are many people working 9 to 5 jobs, jobs that they hate, however most of these people have families they need to provide for. But what about those who do not have families or someone they look after? Is it really good for them to think there's nothing else for them? I don't think so.

I am reminded of a scene from Fight Club where Tyler Durden threatens to kill a young man. Why? To get him to quit his job at a convenient store and pursue his dream of becoming a Veterinarian.

Now I am not saying I want to threaten death on anyone, however for single individuals, male or female, I believe they should be woken up and made to realize that they are more than the mediocre job they are working.

It's a dream of mine to become a great journalist and I will achieve that goal.
I hope that you achieve yours, dear reader, as well.

Be well.

EA doesn't care. EA isn't here. EA gone.

EA is clueless about the gamer, despite owning actual game developers.

They're constantly following gaming trends for the purpose of making a quick buck and not for the benefit of the gamer who they claim to be all about.

No wonder many predict the downfall of EA.

Not dumping on their developers, just them and only them. They haven't changed one bit and all the good their developers do, they take all the credit.

Charlie Sheen no longer Winning.

After suffering from a severe case of the dreaded illness, "Eeyore-ism", Charlie Sheen no longer seems capable of tapping into his Win.

"I.. don't know what came over me" proclaims Sheen, "It's like having a sugar-crash turned up all the way to 11."

Currently, police investigators are searching through Sheen's home for any sign of illegal drugs and so far nothing is coming up. "He either went through the entirity of his stash or he really does have Eeyore-ism." Explains Sgt. Dingus Kaun of the Malibu P.D., "The illness sounds mentally retarded, but I guess.. it's possible?"

How do casual gamers, new to gaming, view old school games put up for digital distribution.

TSIA

I want comments on this one. I want to know if anyone knows any newer gamers who view older games with either a sense of "awe" or with disgust because of how dated the graphics look.

Here's why T.G.I. Friday's sucks.

They over cook their steaks and they water down the whiskey.
Why would anyone do this? 

I once walked into my local TGIF and confronted the management about this. I was cussed at and spit on and this resulted in fisticuffs in the same vein as an action movie.

As the fight lingered on, the cops showed up. I escaped by jumping out of a window and landing in the front seat of my car (windows down).

And that's why TGIF sucks.

Sony needs to advertise their exclusives properly.

[NOTE: This is mostly from my perspective.]




Last year we saw the release of Killzone 3, Socom 4, Uncharted 3, Infamous 2, and Resistance 3.


Uncharted 3 undoubtedly did the best in 2011 and had good advertising. 


But what about the other games I mentioned? Not a lot of people knew about them and while the games did have buyers, they still sold below what was expected.




However, when a COD game is released, Sony likes to make it clear that COD can be played online, for free, with their system. Also, if a multiplatform game will give PS3-users a special item, Sony just loves to make that known instead trying to entice gamers to buy their exclusives.




Here is a link to VGChartz.com's list of the PS3's best-selling games since launch (look at the top 20): http://www.vgchartz.com/platform/3/playstation-3/


Exclusives: 6. Non-exclusives: 14. Look at how they're positioned.




The problem is either Sony isn't marketing anything the right way or their developers are not very good.


You be the judge.

Violent behavior.

Has existed before Pong.




If little Johnny is acting up in school, starts a fight, bullies, or brings a gun to school, it is most likely due to either poor parenting or mental disorder. That's it.


Even if a game was capable of triggering violent behavior, it's not the game's fault or the developer's fault. The blame can only be placed on poor discipline or a problem within the brain.


That's just my two cents on the subject.
