The Story Behind PROJECT: Re/Save
This is the story and the main reason why I am doing PROJECT: Re/Save, as seen here
Please note that it is quite long, so bear with me.
EDIT: Also, yes, this blog is a thing now, so you get to read about my rants and other
randomness that is hapening in my life.:P
- I am a gamer, as most of you know. I have a reasonable collection of games, over 80, in fact, spread over 6 consoles, or 3 generations of video game systems. 35 of those 80+ games are PlayStation 2 games. In order to save games, The PS2 requires a memory card, the standard capacity being 8MB. 35 games will not fit on one standard 8MB memory card, and as such, I had 3: 2 for all 35 games, and 1 for another purpose. This one was for storing replays, backups for only a few games and one special case. This was a German language file for Gran Turismo 3, in order to get Opel cars for my English file (I cannot understand German, apart fro

Heavenly Sword review by Alyssa
Round 75 of the Articles Of Excellence ends with Alyssa scoring another win, this time with her review of Heavenly Sword. She prefaces the review by saying how it was ignored due to being released at the wrong time, and explains that if it was released under different circumstances, it would immediately be a classic, perhaps outside of some gimmicky motion controls. But hey, if you have excellent combat, a fantastic story and surprisingly good animation, it's very easy to overlook the motion controls.
Heavenly Sword Score: 9/10
Genre: Hack and Slash
With a dynamic cast of characters and intense battles, it's hard to deny that Heavenly Sword is definitely one of the finest games in this generation.

Are we headed to dystopia?
I was browsing around and came across a photo that was being labeled as "funny". A guy had taken a photo at a friends wedding of all the brides maids sitting around, distracted by their phones.
This is something that has only occurred within the last decade so it's fairly new, and things are only going to get worse. Pretty much everyone has a cellphone, and I think a large majority of those phones are "smart phones" in one way or another. You never go out any more without someone pulling out their phone to check it for something. While going out to eat, sitting at the table, someone / if not everyone is bound to at some point pull their phone out. I've done it, everyone else I know has done it.
With innovations in technology things are getting smaller, things that were dreamed of are starting to become reality. Things are going to dramatically change though than the today we now know. Fo

Been a while since I wrote on my blog.
Can't believe it's been nearly 3 years since I joined Neoseeker and nearly 2 years since I wrote in my blog. Or I may be over-exaggerating, ah well. Not much has been going on in my life recently, just same old school and gaming, glad to see Neoseeker again after a while.

Pokemon White Version 2
Lately, I've been getting back into playing Pokemon. Pokemon White 2 has it's perks and mishaps, I'd say. Sure the new feature of triple battles seemed like a awesome idea but it just makes the battles longer and more irritating. HOWEVER, the link building was a wonderful idea. Allowing businesses to open up from other players and you're fans that you build up from the Theater. Two badges left within 30hrs... pretty happy. & the selection of pokemon are great too. c:

Anime Top Ten: Japanese Openings
While some anime have different openings between languages, some do not. Heck, some anime aren't in English at all. No messin' around, let's get right into my ten favorite Japanese anime openings!
Number 10
The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya Opening 1 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y4Bl6BHXqUg
Starting us off is the theme starting the world of our lord and savior, The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya! I was split on which of the two openings to use, since they're both great in their own right, but I'm more familiar with the first one, so it got the nod. I feel that it works for the anime, since it has a combination of energy and calm that the anime will throw your way.
Number 9
Magic Knight Rayearth Season 1 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LAv1SSYXpHg (not the best quality, but it's all I could find in a timely fashion)
Number 9 is Magic Knight Rayearth! Now, one thing I love about this series

Inhale's 1st Blog! Check out My Profile!
What's up? I can't believe I haven't done this yet. Or should I rephrase that, I don't have a laptop, or the time to Neoseek as much as I want to. Anyways, I'm here mostly to say that I finally updated the Interest section of my profile. I was looking at my profile, and was surprise to see I have over 15000 views or something along the lines. I was like, "How can I have this many views when I have an empty profile". So I figured it's time I shared a bit about myself, for those who care to get to know Inhale a bit. Read my profile, you may share some of my interests. Anyways, I'm a pretty good guy. Hit me up, holla at me, don't judge me just because I smoke weed. I hate people who judge someone just because they smoke weed. If weed doesn't interfere with the person's life, and hasn't changed who they are, then what's the problem? Anyways, please, hit me up. By all means, I love neoseeker.

Bioshock Infinite review by Demonfurby
Round 74 of the Articles Of Excellence ended a bit later than usual, but Gryzor was in hospital between Monday and Friday so he couldn't make the AOE deadline. So sorry about that. But enough of that, because he has a review to make the winner, and this period's winner is none other than Demonfurby's review of Bioshock Infinite. He describes it as one of the finest games ever made, and for a game made in the year 2013 to accomplish this, it's definitely something to consider.
Bioshock Infinite Score: 10/10
Genre: First Person Shooter
Please buy it, support Irrational. Support a change for the better. For the betterment of the genre, and industry as a whole.

Winston Churchill Quotes
Sir Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill (1874-1965)
We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.
There is no such thing as a good tax.
Some see private enterprise as a predatory target to be shot, others as a cow to be milked, but few are those who see it as a sturdy horse pulling the wagon.
The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings; the inherent virtue of socialism is the equal sharing of miseries.
We contend that for a nation to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle.
An appeaser is one who feeds a crocodile—hoping it will eat him last.
The problems of victory are more agreeable than the problems of defeat, but they are no less difficult.
From now on, ending a sentence with a preposition is something up with which I shall not put.
A fanatic is one who can’t change his mind and won’

Cakedays and Such
Nine years ago today I (with the permission of my parents, of course; it would be almost three years yet before I got my own laptop for Christmas) hit the register button on this site. While I can’t truly claim to have been here for all nine of those years, but for a good portion of that time Neoseeker has been a part of my life. A much bigger part of my life than I could have imagined when I started out.
I derped about in various obscure N64 forums for a little while, not really having a taste of true forum activity until I stumbled across the Super Smash Bros Melee forum.
