Dandy

1) Backbone Entertainment is continuing the honorable tradition of bringing PSP titles to the Wii with Death, Jr. II: Root of Evil: Special Edition, which will be published by Konami Eidos sometime next year....
2) Also coming next year from Backbone Entertainment is a version of Gauntlet for the DS, the hack-and-slash adventure will support the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection for multiplayer with up to four players. Gauntlet will apparently also make an appearance on Nintendo's other system in the same timeframe.
3) Who do you think is going to be the Republican presidential nominee?
Mike Huckabee (no, not RuPaul, much to the dismay to the Internet Kingdom, which is adjacent to the Mushroom Kingdom) [UPDATE: I am not one accurate political analyst.]
4) Kirby will be tilting and tumbling on WiiWare.
5) I don't work for PSM3 (nor do I "communicate" with the magazine), I'm not British (I think it is quite obvious). I am not an employee of Future Publishing. The rumors are taken directly from this blog and I am not credited probably because I may have burned a bridge with the publication by refusing to do an interview (I explain why here). Expect things from this blog to show up in a litany of publications in the coming months, though.
6) Are you writing a book?
No, I have not attempted to do that in a number of years and have no desire or reason to attempt again. I am not Daniel Lyons.
7) What is your favourite album of all-time?
I would be lying if I said anything other than The Black Saint and the Sinner Lady.

UPDATE: Somebody wanted evidence that such a transaction occured, so here it is:

I'm going to have to decline your request for an interview, there is something about a magazine profiling my little blog that seems environmentally unethical.

Thanks for reading,
surfer girl

I examine third-party presidential candidates you have never heard of so you do not have to.

Dr. Donald J. Grundmann
Constitution Party
www.truthusa.org

Doctor Donald (Doctor of Chiropractic and Herbalist) is a lot like Republican presidential candidate Doctor Ronald, he's loony tunes, believes in a New World Order, likes economic isolationism, stresses global warming is fraud to destroy the American economy and wipe out the middle class, asserts Deism was completely nonexistent in 17th century colonial America, and is sure that the IRS is evil and scary fraud. He steps it up a notch by proving himself to completely gullible with buying into the idea that the attacks of September 11th were created by the government, the Avian Flu is a scheme to take away people's money, and abortion causes breast cancer. Unlike Ronnie, he believes that "federal, state, and[/or] local government has no role in financing, operating, or defining schooling, or even compelling attendance" and at fifty-one years of age he is still a bachelor and has no children (therefore he is possibly gay). He is attempting to appeal to a demographic that cannot even vote with his "I never want to grow up" attitude.

During the childhood years in which Don was in the hospital for his severe asthma, he read the entire encyclopedia and every annual update. He had a revelation sometime after he became a doctor about how abortion is an expression of those who value evolution. He also explains how The Matrix is happening in modern times because Sirhan Sirhan did not shoot Robert Kennedy amongst other things. Throughout his site, he advises us to take the red pill about pertinent issues to America. On the contradict-a-thon issues page, he is bold enough to say "Isreal [sic]" when addressing peace in the Middle East, prove himself a great doctor when he says "perscription [sic]," and address the real issue:

Child molestors [sic], the national group called NAMBLA is a example, have formed powerful groups with chapters in many cities of the nation. They are protected and nurtured by very powerful economic and political forces. These groups must be exposed and destroyed by law enforcement.
Last but not least, more than half of the links on Doctor Donald links page are defunct.

Paul Kangas
Green Party

According to this San Franciscan's YouTube account, he is a music promoter at Gandhi Health Care System for Prevention and George Bush, Sr. killed JFK.

More will be added later.

UPDATE: Thank you Paul Kangas for removing your YouTube video, now I have to go replace it.

Mega Double Deluxe

1) Do any people in the industry read your blogs?
Statcounter says persons from Electronic Arts, Insomniac Games, Sony Computer Entertainment America, Namco Bandai, High Moon Studios, Disney Interactive Studios, LucasArts, Liquid Entertainment, THQ, Radical Entertainment, Capcom, Ubisoft, Nintendo of America, Eidos, Human Head Studios, Guerrilla Games, Bethesda Softworks, Konami, Rockstar San Diego, Rockstar Games, Red Storm Entertainment, Activision, Sierra Entertainment, and others.
2) Yes, Duke Nukem Forever is still coming out in fall 2008, for PS360 and computing machines. It is even coming out before that supposedly-existent Sadness game. Also, according to two emails I have received, Chinese Democracy is coming out next year.
3) When is The Sims 3 coming out?
Currently scheduled for around the ninth anniversary of the release of The Sims, which will occur in February 2009.




Californians, do something about the outrageous things seen in that video by going here.

Remember Australians, vote for Kevin Rudd on Saturday.

Finally, Happy Thanksgiving

Are you the wheelman?

1) Crysis is coming to PS360, but not before Q3 of EA's fiscal 09 [October-December 2008].
2) Coming to PS360 next September is skate two., which, as previously mentioned, takes place outside of San Vanelona.
3) Also coming next fall soon is the Wii version of Spore from EA Montreal, which be the first home console version of the title to see release. The Wii version feature an online mode for content sharing akin to that found in the original version and the possibility of online gameplay for the Wii version is being looked into. The DS version of Spore (which Jenova Chen was working on prior to joining thatgamecompany), seeing release alongside the original version in April September, will support the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection for gameplay.
4) Driver 5 (working title) is not exclusive to the PS3 (nor was such ever the case), it will be hitting PC and 360 as well sometime next in some year.

Over at such things that never was, I reveal some information about Jet Moto:SOLAR and chronicle how NFL GameDay 2005 became Road to Sunday.
