It has its own Chapter in the President’s Book of Secrets
This past week didn’t really have that many contenders. Overall, I decided to give to Super Paper Mario for the Wii. This game is just great all over. I mean, not only are you playing as Mario, you’re playing as PAPER Mario. Yea! I wouldn’t be surprised to see Dwight from The Office playing this game. Do you get it? It’s because they all work in a paper company…..Colt back me up here.
 
 
 
(9.50/10.00) Picking up Ratchet and Clank:Size Matters for the PSP, I expected to have a great time playing a great new R & C adventure on my PSP…..that and having to recharge my battery a lot. Anyway, Size Matters tells the story of Ratchet and Clank, taking a break from their world-saving, only to be interrupted by Luna, a little girl who is “doing a report on heroes” and no, not the awesome TV show, and wants to follow Ratchet and Clank around to see them fight some robots! Pretty soon, Luna is kidnapped my the mysterious Technomites, Captain Quark is looking for his real parents, and it’s up to Ratchet and Clank to save her! Or is it? The cutscene graphics on this game are great, just as good as a PS2 game, and the in-game is almost as good. As always, there are a variety of weapons to choose from, from my Size Matters favorite, the Dual Lacerators (ouch), and the cool but impractical, Bee Mine Glove. Although some game critics said it didn’t sound as good as the PS2 installments, I thought it sounded fine. I also loved the easy-to-use weapon mod and armor system. My only minor complaint was that the camera can sometimes bug out, and it’s a little short. Overall, if you’re looking for a great platformer on the PSP, this is what you’ve been waiting for.Â
 Ratchet and Clank deserve their own Game Preview post, because they’re so awesome, I may add more later, right now I’m too busy playing Ratchet and Clank!
Ratchet and Clank Future:Tools of Destruction
As you probably can figure out from the rest of the posts, I am a huge fan of Ratchet and Clank, and I have nearly played every one of the games. I don’t know whether it’s the great weapons, controls, or storyline/humor that keeps me playing, but I love it! But this next adventure will be taking Ratchet and Clank where they’ve never been before…..to the PS3. From what I’ve read, some fiendish fiend is trying to kill all lombaxes (Ratchet’s species) and it’s up to him and Clank to save the day. I’ve also read that Captain Quark is going to be the only other returning character. I am psyched! Silverwing, you’re going to have to buy it and let me play it! Hey, I’d even buy it for your PS3 just so I could play it!
 
 
 
(Grade:A-) John Heder has done it again, and Will Ferrel has done it for the first time. I am referring to them starring in a movie that I thought was genuinely funny. As you probably don’t know, “Talladega Nights:The Ballad of Ricky Bobby” was a huge dissapointment to me, and none of Ferrel’s other movies have made me laugh as hard as this one. John Heder has also done well in my eyes in the past:The Benchwarmers, Napolean Dynamite, etc. This movie tells the story of Chaz Micheal Micheals and Jimmy Macaroy, two arch-nemesees skaters who, after being banned from singles, join together to win in doubles, making possibly the funniest movie of the year. Other than the not-as-bad-as-I-expected-it-to-be cussing and other inappropriate content, this is one of the best movies of the year.
Sorry it’s late, but The Game of the Week for April 1-7, although “Pimp my Ride” for the PSP was a strong contender, is Guitar Hero II for the 360. This is just one rockin’ game that just won’t quit with the new songs, new mode, and of course, the coolest controller ever made!
On this date, nearly 2000 years ago, a man by the name of Jesus Christ rose from the dead, after being in Joseph of Arimethea’s tomb that had been sealed for since that friday, where he was brutally crucified, so we could have forgiveness of our sins. This is the good news my friends, this is the good news. Happy Easter, Jesus loves you!
That’s right Heroes/The Office fans, now you can get the desktop background you’ve been waiting for! The days of tiling are gone my friend!
For this Heroes Desktop, click here, save it to your pictures for future use, and set it as your desktop background!
 For these The Office desktops, click here and it will lead you to the main page of them, then click the one you want (the border, that is) and it will open up a new window where you can do what you did with the one above.
For these My Name is Earl Icons, just click here and do the same as earlier. Remember to pick the right screen size, for mine it was 1024 X 786.
For these Monk desktops, just click here for one and here for the other.Do like earlier. You can also get a screensaver if you go to downloads, and screensaver.
Some may go to a site where you have to click to get to them and others will take you directly to the pictures, but I think I’ve taught you well enough to figure that out.
I thought it could be tough at times, trying to think of all the cast of Heroes without a picture, so….. (They’re pictured int the order they are in the picture. Example:Hiro’s name left, he’ll be on the left, vice-versa.)
Ando-No power (That we know of), Hiro-Time Bending
Ted Spraque-Radioactivity
Issac-Paints the Future
Sylar-Steals powers through brains, Mohinder-None known of, yet he is a researcher.
Nathan-Flying, Linderman-Healing.
Claire-Invulnerability
Sylar-Steals powers through brains, no non-stolen power…..I know I put this guy before, this one’s just cooler.
 
I’ll put more up later.
Once again, subject to change.
 
This week’s game previews doen’t have any thing in common, I just looked these up on my favorite game site, www.gamespot.com. That’s right kids, I, Earl, go to gamespot.com for all my game needs!
Bust-A-Move Bash!
This popular puzzle series is once again busting its way onto a gaming system in order to bring us joy thourh our…..busting joys. I think if you have busting joys, you should see a psychiatrist. This little buddy will probably utilize the Wii controller in some fun way in order for us to have fun satisfying our busting pleasures on April 17th, 2007.
F.E.A.R.
This fun little shooter that has graced the 360 and the PC is finally coming to the PS3. Of course, there will probably be some “WHAT WAS THAT!!!!!” moments, along with the “Heh Heh, it’s in slow-mo.” moments as well. But one things for sure…..Jim will win in the fight against Roy on The Office…..possibly with the help of Dwight.
Lord of the Rings:Shadow of Angmar
Nerds everywhere will be drooling on there keyboards with this new R.P.G. for the P.C., and I’m sure along with it some dwarf jokes only one devoted fanboy will get, swords, and possibly a mixture of the two. I just have one question:”What’s the deal with the dude with the weird helmet?!?!?”
“Monk” tells the story of Adrian Monk, an obsessive-compulsive private consultant who was discharged to to his unstability. He has had 2 partners, Sherona Flemming and the current victim, Natalie Teeger. He goes along, “living?” his live, and seeing the tiny, yet important details leading to the solving of the crime that others miss. I highly recommend this show, especially if you can get past all of Monk’s little quirks.
