In this case, they have modified the skins on the PC version of Street Fighter IV.
M. Bison as Doraemon
El Fuerte as Korosuke

and hilarity ensues…

Given enough time, it won’t be too long to see Ronald and other 2chan memes make it to the game.

With id software’s specialty in game engines, it could help Bethesda further optimize its game. At the same time, Bethesda’s expertise in story-telling and open exploration could help improve id software’s FPS games. One could only imagine the possibilities when both of their franchises become merged with an optimized engine and a good story-telling.

Doom on an open environment? Elder scrolls on a modern setting? We will have to wait to find out if these will ever come true.

However, there is something familiar about the design…

Silver = Roark? hmmmm…

Aside from unveiling the new redesign, it has also been revealed that Groudon and Kyogre will be available for the catch – however, only one is available for each version. And when the two are reunited, Rayquaza will appear for a special event. The Arceus event will also be available for this game.

So this is game is more than just a remake, it is an opportunity to relive Gold/Silver + Ruby/Sapphire.

The new PSP go! is much smaller and much lighter than the original PSP and PSP Lite. It also features a smaller sliding screen to be more compact and easier to carry around. It also has an internal 16GB memory for all your gaming and multimedia needs. However the good feature stops there. Don’t be fooled by this product. It is merely a way for Sony to give a middle finger to game distributors and customers.

And guess what? Sony says screw you old PSP owners. Your UMD games are no longer playable. Too bad, the new PSP Go! no longer has a UMD drive, and instead sports and internal memory for downloadable games. Oh, and by the way, you retailers and distributors are cut off from Sony’s slice of profit. Games would have to be bought directly through their online store. Take that! You can no longer resell your game! I guess the used game sales market will no longer be a problem for Sony now. Also, why let distributors and retailers get a small profit on our products when Sony can have it all to themselves?

What is that? You don’t have a wi-fi internet connection? Well sorry you’re also screwed. Games can only be bought and downloaded that way. I guess you can always use the wi-fi from the nearest coffee shop. Sony doesn’t really care that wi-fi is not available to all of its potential customers. If you’re not cutting edge enough to use wi-fi, then the PSP Go! is not for you.

And lastly, remember how everybody complained about the analog nub on the original PSP? Well don’t fret, Sony made it even flatter and harder to use! Even the buttons and the directional pad are flatter! Who cares if they feel uncomfortable as long as its portable and lightweight. Because portability is the most important thing in a handheld right? right?…

If you analyze all of this, you’ll realize that the PSP Go! is not a product made for customers. It is a product made for Sony’s interest.

Duke Nukem Forever has been the butt of jokes for being a development disaster. The game aimed too high and underwent numerous iterations, and by the time they were finished, they have become obsolete and scrapped. This cycle had continued throughout the game’s life. Its has been almost a decade since its development and the closest they have got was just a teaser trailer.

And all those years of waiting was meant for nothing… NOTHING!

First of all, Blastoise, the shining example of a good responsible parent. The type of parent that is always there for his kid. A parent who accepts his child’s differences, and always supports him on any endeavor.

Then we have Venusaur, the hippie dad who acts more like an adolescent than a parent. Very irresponsible, but liberal in upbringing and easily relates with his kids.

And lastly, we’ve got Charizard who is a terrible parent that always beats up his child. Doesn’t really care much about them and is happy to get rid of them as soon as possible:

There are many more variations of the Pokeparents, but some of them are NSFW. Well just have to settle for the RBY starters for now

Enter the commands, and the robot will follow the instructions. The objective is simple: light up all the blue tiles.

It seems pretty simple, until you find out that there is a maximum limit on the number of commands available on the main program…

But don’t fret, the game has 2 additional command slots for using functions! Now there is where our cunning comes in: How do we finish the task without going over the maximum number of commands on the main program?

Although this game will be easy for programmers, this provides a very fun distraction and constrast to our day to day work.

You can play the game here

Although this is more of an exercise on logic, a lot of the problems are reflective of what developers encounter on a day-to-day basis. Even one of the problems was solved when I thought about the difference of linebreaks in notepad (“\n” vs “\r\n”). Its up for you to find out when the parallel happens.

In a somewhat deja vu move by Square-Enix, they have once again included a character of African descent into the main cast. Remember the last time this happened (Kiros is not a main cast)? It seems that they are trying to recreate the chemistry of FF7′s cast.

However, what’s different is that instead of a huge tough guy, they went the opposite direction and made him more likeable and charismatic character than Barret at first sight:

Who couldn’t resist a guy sporting an Afro and having a cute Chicobo calling him daddy (父)?
