THIS IS RAPTURE!!!

I picked up COD5 and Bioshock yesterday on 360.
COD5 is exactly what I expected it to be: A generic war FPS with tonnes of 7yr olds playing it online. To cancel out the fail of the repulsive community and the gray=nexgen approach, I named all my classes after Touhou races.
Bioshock is awesome. The movement is very unreal-y, but it kinda has a HL1-like feel. When I decided to rescue the little sisters, I thought I was doing it wrong by not following the Irish dude's orders, but then pokebees told me it was the only way to get a good ending, and I noticed the delicious 100 GamerPoints you get for rescuing them all. Yay for lolis.

Michael Jackson died, which is kinda annoying. The internet pretty much exploded, and there's RIP MJ messages everywhere.

Macross Frontier is awesome. I totally didn't expect Ranka to be such an awesome loli, and the main character is a semi-trap.

I've decided to start reviewing the NND charts every time I post, giving me at least something to talk about.
Nanairo is still way up there, with SquaDus' version at no. 7. SquaDus is pretty awesome as he talks like a generic "best friend" eroge character, and sings like a girl.
Of course, there are tonnes of MJ videos in the charts. Most of them are just his various songs, but there are also some NND classics, like the Lucky Star MJ OP.
New meme alert: Greatest freakout ever over World of Warcraft. This is basically the new AGK. Some kid got his WoW subscription canceled so he freaked out. It'd obviously staged, but what the hell, it's lulz, and new MAD material.
Unexpectedly, there are also two Touhou renditions up there. They're both pretty well done, and could potentially be used as BGM.
Megpoid seems to be dominating this time. With quite a few songs, which is pretty much expected for a brand new Vocaloid.

I suggest rape.

TAPIOKAPANCHI

Hey.
I kinda forgot to do an E3 post, so here's a small round-up, in case you weren't alive at the time.
Microsoft announced a motion controller! It's totally original, guys.
Microsoft announced FaceBook! It's totally original, guys.
Sony announced a motion controller! It's totally original, guys.
Sony announced a download-only console! It's totally original, guys.
Nintendo... Wait, what DID Nintendo announce?

Anyway, there were also some more awesome yet not directly related updates, such as Star Radish in Doki Majo Plus! This is a truely epic announcement, and it has secured my will to attain the game. Also, Shana season 3 confirmed! I shat bricks.

I got a new phone a few days ago. It's a Nokia 5800, and it's awesome. It has pretty much every feature imaginable, plus a few emulators. I originally had Miku as my wallpaper, but then I remembered to conceal my power level, so I changed it to Nice Boat.

I also bought an outdated gaming PC. It has a 1337 case and one of those epic LCD temperature monitors, so I plan on upgrading it until it can run Crysis on full settings.

I've just finished Dokuro-Chan. I can see why people like it, but ultimately it has a very boring storyline and some really unfunny jokes. The only reason you should watch it is for the otaku point bonus.

Expect another post when something cool happens.

I suggest rape.
