Pokemon and its weirdness 2

PaTROLLING the waters of Pokemon Emerald, I am challenged to a girl who says: "I'm wearing a bathing suit. Where do I keep the Pokeballs? Tee-hee, Woman's secret"


uh...


Has anyone noticed a few weird things about to supposedly kid-friendly game? Like, how this game teaches you about dating a girl. Pokemon rewards you with a girl's own phone number if you beat up her pet and take her money. Hardly suitable life lessons. 
Pokemon also teaches us that catching animals and locking them in PC's for the rest of their life is acceptable, when it is not so by any standards in a humane video game. BTW, how does storing an animal in a PC actually work? Twelve bucks to anyone who tells me.
In Gold, they introduced the day and night system. This was meant to make the world feel real and like your adventure was progressing a long time and not just over the course of one never ending day. But, most of these people in the world remain in the same place. Doesn't anyone sleep? Like, I'm pretty sure it's necessary for human survival...right?


Professor Oak: "Don't go into the grass, it's too dangerous!" However, Oak doesn't protest when you go and take on a criminal organisation like Team Rocket. These guys are anything but clever. They are supposed to be mean, lean fighting machines who can best any foe through their sheer power...using Rattata and Zubat. And speaking of Zubats (attacked by Zubat in cave) there sure are (attacked by Zubat in cave) a lot of them. It's (attacked by Zubat in cave) like they're everywhere. You can't (attacked by Zubat in cave) take (attacked by Zubat in cave) a (attacked by Zubat in cave) single (attacked by Zubat in cave) STEP WITHOUT MEETING ONE. (attacked by Zubat in cave)


When you really think about it, those Pokemon are darn cute. Bulbasaur, Chikorita, Mew, even Magby. But do you ever stop to think; of the only animals in the world are Pokemon...what are you really eating for dinner?



Moar Wii U stuff

The original controller has been redesigned and called the Wii U Gamepad, while adding in another controller type called Wii U Pro.
The Wii U will also have a social networking style thing called a Miiverse. Players can talk, ask for hints and more without exiting their play session.
The Wii U Gamepad can act as a TV remote and can control an internet browser system built into the Wii U.
The Wii U is said to be at least 50% more powerful than current generation consoles.
That's all until E3 (tomorrow) folks.

I have asked this before. Would you, our readers, like for us to do a lets play of a game?
 I got barely no response to that.
But now, im asking you again. 4ever has made a youtube channel. Would you like to see some gameplay videos? or maybe some other stuff? please dont be shy, your suggestions are valued.
also, please watch the videos that 4ever has put up so far.

anyway, back to the gameplay, what games?
maybe some co-op mario bros wii? or perhaps some amnesia? (i have the demo, not the full game so dont expect much from that) would you like some darksouls: prepare to die edition gameplay?
PLEASE LEAVE COMMENTS AND GIVE US SUGGESTIONS!
WE NEED THEM

Wii U updates

New things quickly.
The Controller has added two small buttons and instead of the circle pads, has replaced them with actual thumbsticks. 
The price will not be revealed at E3.
The launch games can be bought as downloads as opposed to discs.

Drawn to life...

Ah yes, drawn to life. one of my personal favourite DS games. of course, im not talking about the spongebob one... because that never existed...
im talking about the original drawn to life game, a game that promised the ability to CREATE YOUR OWN CHARACTER

THE STORY: so the story of the original drawn to life game is simple at first. a small village inhabited by creatures known as the raposa is slowly being consumeb by darkness. the only hope left in the village lies with Mari, the only raposa who still believes in the Creator, the raposa's deity. The creator recognises Mari's faith and so creates a hero that will bring the village out of the darkness.
 

Heres where you come in. The game makes you do two things. Draw, and platform.
whilst drawing, you are basically given creative freedom on what you draw. however, you are prompted to draw what youve been told to and sometimes are given a template to stick to.
When creating your character you can either use a guide or create a character from scratch. because my drawing skills on the DS are not amazing, i went with using a guide and changing up the colours.
WE'VE ALL DONE IT! 

Gameplay: other than drawing, this game makes you platform. now, while its not a hardcore platformer like supermario bros or super meat boy, it can still present a challenge as you can spend ages looking for that last component to finish a level.
that reminds me, to finish a level, you must do three things. 
1- clear all of the darkness from the stage (rub with stlus)
2- rescue all the raposa in the stage
3-find the pages of the book of life
the last of these three can be troublesome.

Finally, The game contains incredibly catchy musci that you will find yourself huming along to. ah yes. how can we forget that catchy boss music.
the only downside is that the boss music is used for three of the four main bosses in the gmae, just played with different soundboards.

so yeah, PLAY THIS GAME CAUSE ITS AMAZING... in my opinion
