Starcraft 2

Remember when I blogged about Starcraft back January of 2009? Yes, well Starcraft 2 still hasn't come out yet, but the good news is my computer will most certainly be able to run it! The game has gone into closed Beta testing for a while now which is good news! Yes, after Beta testing comes public release and then comes me not doing any of my assignments for a very long time... But I'm very excited now because you can actually PRE-ORDER THE COLLECTORS EDITION OF THE GAME!!! Guess what it contains!

# World of Warcraft mini Thor in-game pet that can be applied to all World of Warcraft characters on a single Battle.net account!
# The Art of StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty, a 176-page book featuring artwork from the game
# An exclusive 2GB USB flash drive replica of Jim Raynor's dog tag, which comes preloaded with the original StarCraft and the StarCraft: Brood War expansion set (because if you're buying the COLLECTORS STARCRAFT EDITION then we're assuming that you DON'T OWN the original Starcraft already... duh)
# A behind-the-scenes DVD containing over an hour of developer interviews, cinematics with director's commentary, and more
# A plasma rifle (not to be used on the neighbours cat.... unless it becomes infected by a zerg parasite)
# The official StarCraft II: Wings of Liberty soundtrack CD, containing 14 epic tracks from the game along with exclusive bonus tracks
# Pictures of Michael Morhaime while he sleeps... oooohhh yeeeahhhh
# StarCraft comic book issue #0, a prequel to the comic series
# A secret code to crack to unlock bonus rewards! (Hint, it's "drink your ovaltine")
# Exclusive Battle.net downloadable content, including special portraits for your Battle.net profile, decals to customize your units in-game, and a visually unique version of the terran Thor unit
# Heroin to ease yourself off the addiction to the game whenever you need to leave your house for any extended period of time
# Experimental drugs that can sustain the human body for over 50 hours without food or sleep so you don't die... we hope... oh please not again!
# TRUE HAPPINESS!

Yes! It boasts ALL of that and even more! (The more being cardboard that the box itself is made out of) I know I can't wait which is why after I have finished typing this I will probably go and look for a job... again...! Must... get... Starcraft 2!

POKEMON!

Is seriously... messed up OK we all know that in the games small children are allowed to go round gambling and animal fighting without their parents and that sounds messed up enough as it is... but you know I love youtube and I hope you do too... and so for some bizzarre reason that I don't remember I thought looking up banned segments of our favourite childhood TV show would be fun and interesting and it is (as interesting as looking up youtube videos on dial up speed internet can be) but OK watching a scene that is banned because it has guns being held to people's head is interesting and even amusing but then there's this...

Yeah... yeah I... don't remember that during the children's english version of the series back when it was on TV at 7:30 in the morning just before I used to go to school. Remember when children's TV was actually for children? I know you can go back to H.R. Puff 'N' Stuff and find so many links and similarities to drugs but you know... that video right there is proof that sometimes the writers forget that they're not on the adult channel anymore...

Great now I'm hooked on weird banned childrens TV...
