here i talk about growing problems with the wiis quality games... I have noticed for a while now, the wii has seemed to return to the old problems of crap games, just like in the days as the nes, i thought that nintendo was over this problem but it seems not, look around gamespot and you'll see dozens of reveiws with games of 6.0 or lower, all on the wii, this has bothered me for quite a while now i thought with the great control scheme great games would be comming out for the wii, sadly, no, it seems the thing that makes the wii so great, is also it's problem, and that is the controls, no matter how much avertising you put into a game there should be some tweaking with the controls, but it seems like devolpers really don;t care, and regard the wii as a a place to put lesser games at their customers expense, and we get a handful of truly great games, but until then were forced to wait, with their best games already out, i wonder what nintendo has up there sleeves for this comming holiday season, and the one after that, there's always a need for great games on any system, and with the wii it seems that there's too far inbetween the grerat games, and huge amount of bad and worse games...

upcomming titles
quite a few upcomming titles have my attention, and i thought i would list them here
rock band 2: now don't get me wrong, i like gh world tour too, but sense i already have rockbands perphils why plunk down another 160 (or so) to get a new set, i will probally get this one at launch...
fable 2: a follow up to one of my favorite action rpgs, fabel 2 seems to be set in a much larger world, introcudes job minigames, and a new conversation system, as well as the new magic system and guns tp use for ranged combat... i will probally get this game at launch as well...
INfamous: an upcomming action game that places you in the shoes of a mutant that weilds tremendous eletrical powers, in what looks like a huge open world, the game looks nice, but i wish there was a character creation system and a list of powers to choose from, i will get this game later probally...
Prototype: i can't mention INfamous without mentioning Prototype an upcomming game that places you in a role of a shapeshifting mutant, that can morph his bosy in other ways to better has offensive and defensive stats, prototype also lets you absorb certain npcs memories, unlocking plot points and triggering cutscenes... i will also get this game later
i had to choose between the two games i would get INfamous before Ptorotype, because it's a ps3 exclusive, and you seen to be playing a good guy in INfamous, or atleast given the chance to be good... while in Prototype, it seems your cast as a bad guy right away, which i do not like...
Golden axe beast rider: no it's not golden axe 4, but it seems to be a step in the right direction, you play as Tryis flare, a female warrior, who is fighting to free her homeland i guess? not much has been said about the games storyline, even the arcade game set you on a path by saying, you king and queen was captured and the golden axe taken, unless they're hiding something about the games storyline, it seems they missed an important part of the game, the storyline...the thing that boithers me about this game is it seems to be more about cool kills more than anything else... But i will try to support this game nevertheless, and will try to get this game at launch, if not maybe a month afterwards...
Fallout 3: Though i have not been able to play the previous fallout games, or brotherhood of steel on the ps2, this game looks pretty interesting, roaming though a post apoc washington dc, (or any city) sounds interesting, and i am up for a postapoc game, i will probally get this in a few months after release, if not later...

Gaming ATM
yesterday i read in gamespot news EAs even more greedy intentions, with EA trying to instagate a hostile take over, by buying shareholders shares, and reducing the vaule of the company as a whole, I gritted my teeth as i read this report, and began to wonder, how much is too much, and why dose the fair trade commision look into the fact that EA owns so many devolpers these days, and still wants more as if this isn't bad enough, my hatred towards nintendo as well, as i see how nintendo (IMO) is short changing stores, of wiis just to keep interest in their product what nintendo fails to realize is if they had much more wiis on the market, they would make much more, and there wouldn't have to be this rush when people enter a store to get a wii either for themselves or their children, but with the low quality of their games, one wonders why even get a wii, and i guess the ansewer is, cause it's popualr... also, with gamestop bragging about their earning over 7 billion dollars, i guess this is what happens when you buy up all the competion, i was always proud to call myself a gamer, but with greedy companies leading the market, it worries me, and makes me kinda ashamed to call myself a gamer...

My life, in general
having finally gotten around to doing something with my MP3.com blog page, i thought i would give my veiws in various things, this being MP3.com, i will start with my musical tastes, what mp3 players i have owned, and other muscial stuff...
Music: i enjoy a lot of music, pop, rock, some rap, some metal, some instrumental stuff, so many genres, it's hard to pick my favorite
MP3 players: i have owned a few mp3 players, my first one was a I2go unit that i picked up at a thrift store while i was working there, it was a larger player, about the size of an audio cassette (i think), i sold that to a friend, since i had another one at the time i sold it, I next purcashed a gamestar mp3 player that plugged into a gba (gameboy advance) it was an ok mp3 player, but was quickly claimed by my mother, but that's ok, probally a bad buy anyways (although i got it from Best Buy for $20 roughly)
the current mp3 player i have at the moment is a RCA lyra, that has a minmum of 256 megs of storage but has a slot for addtional sd card input, which i have used, this is a great lil player in my eyes, it has a built in FM tuner, a line in imput (which i have saved some of my favorite video game music, from both tv, and pc games) it has three backlight colors, red, blue and purple (i belive) and have grey text overlay, (is that term right?) it runs off a single AAA battery for about 20 hours from what the packaging says, and i agree with that statement
Future MP3 players: right now i am looking at a coby a/v player, that has good screen size (maybe an 1.5 inches and a built in litium ion battery) seems to be a good buy for 60-80 dollars from what i have heard, but there's no open slot for adding sd cards (a count against in my eyes) but it dose have a text and photo veiwers, which is nice, for the text, incase i want to read something, or look at photos...
