Wow. That was quick.
Apparently more info on "Another Side Story" has been released. That's the good news. The bad news? I can't freaking copy it and paste it on Babelfish to translate, so for the time being I know as much about the game as I did last year...absolutely nothing(except you play as Space Pirates jajaja). Anyways hopeful for the game, as long as Space Pirate's armor doesn't dissolve every time they get upset.
Great job Chozo...giving a suit...that depends on the wearer being e
Late as heck. But still awesome. Vote what you think is the BEST game for 2008. The winner automatically gets a spot in the field of 33 for the title of best game of the decade, the ones who don't win hope they get an at large bid. 10 winners for the year, 23 at larges. These 7 games have so far clinched a spot in the tournament by winning the MT sponsored BGOTY so far.
I didn't put GTA because I am thoroughly disgusted with what they do in that game. Just a side note.
Sports games such as

In other news, Ask Cookies(and Christmas) will be up sometime....and by sometime I mean when people start reviewing Aftermath again...don't feel like posting a comedy that no one's gonna read.

I aired the first part of a gameplay demo of the RPG on a non BZP site yesterday, and it got a pretty good reception(except Blackout was dissapointed that his pet got stolen by TM). So far, it's looking like it's gonna be a pretty free range RPG, with open planets and stuff.
The only thing that I was able to air on time was a underground/acidy dungeon type place, and it worked out really well IMO. The platform jumping worked out nicely(using numbers to choose which platform would be jumped o
It's really starting to look like BZP is slowly but surely heading downhill in terms of members' activity. I seriously can not remember a time in my BZP career where I saw so little activity from everyone I know.
Wonder how long it's got left. I hope it's a while. I still have a story to finish...

(This is no prank)
Tarakavarbiter has recently announced, that due to uncontrollable circumstances, he will be gone for the next TWO YEARS. I hope that he comes back sooner, but I can't count on it. So let's take a moment and wish TA the best as his parting gift...hopefully, the Zehvor will still be around in two years to greet him when he gets back...if he does.
(silence)
You will be sorely missed, TA.
Now, that brings up another problem. With TA's sudden disappearance, we have one
Premier Membership is back.
And I shall begin blogging again by saying that the Kendan are back, lead by TNM. Mesonak says that they are technically both one team, but that if there was any division, he'd be on the Kendan.

Well, I decided to (sorta) keep a record of what I do in the new Metroid that I've been playing. I'll probably update this weekly, since I'm busy during most weekdays. I may even do this for Reach too, depending on how well this goes.
Day 1:
Saw the opening cutscene for the 10 millionth time. Passed the test stage with little difficulty(and yes, I am just going to sit there when something grabs me, as I have no good counterattack moves yet). More cutscenes and landing aboard the "Bottle S
I'm currently taking a break from the RPG designing process to try and figure out some way to bring the Zehvor back as a team, and particularly mend the friendship(or lack thereof) between two members that I won't mention. Sorry if this inconviences anyone.

Well, it's looking like the Haloid war will never end on this blog, and especially not considering that Other M and Reach will most likely end up in a showdown sometime in the video game playoffs of 2010(which Reach will probably steamroll thanks to the failures at Team Ninja), so I thought it was appropriate to take time to look at what each series does well, and why neither has to necessarily be "so much bettarz111!" than the other.
What Halo does better than Metroid:

Most of you TBTTRAH readers know that each year we have a tournament to decide the best fighter in TBTTAH. This year I'm expanding a little to include everyone in TBTTRAH and Boxtus Arena. Most of the fighting preliminaries, including all the GS's, will be held in Boxtus.
So far, the past two Final Fours have been....

Semifinal #1: Mr. Matoro def. Sonu
Semifinal #2: Inikalord def. Brenmac

Well, I was going to post this yesterday, but Yami was having a field day with the BZP server. Anyways, RPG design is ongoing, but it mostly consists of just writing the actual thing now. Thanks to everyone who helped.
Anyways, we're(I'm) bored. Any suggestions on what do do?

Well, since all the games for this year are out, it's time for me to hand out my less than prestiged awards for video games of the decade. Here we go, starting with the character awards:
CHARACTER AWARDS:
Best Hero: Master Chief(Halo): Halo did a really nice job I think of connecting you with the characters in their games, while big Nintendo franchises such as Metroid and Zelda didn't as much. Modern Warfare did a nice job of it with Price, but Master Chief edges Price out because of just
This pretty much sums up my feelings on it.
and this....
Anyways, now that the U.S. is gone from the World Cup, soccer fever is officially gone here. To the U.S, I say good luck in 2014, and please, please, stay away from Ghana.

I think this is proof that God really does have lots of fun toying with us. Maybe "toy" isn't the right word, but you can decide what the word should be for yourself after you take a look at these images.
This is Earth. No, not the really big bright yellow, orange, and red thing. It's the tiny blue dot. Compared to the sun. Turns out the Earth really isn't that big. But it gets worse.
That's our galaxy. The Milky Way Galaxy. Where are we on the map? Not at the center. We're inbetween one

Anyways this year has sucked and I still have like 9 months to go.
As Lamp would say..."Yippee!"
Chapters have been up reeeaaalllllyyyyyy slowly because of it. Not liking this amount of homework...reminiscent of the times when Mr. Matoro had the same problem.
On the other hand, it is making the deadline for the Ihr contest going to happen before Ihr
Well, the finished RPG is almost done. All that's left is mapping some planets(and solar systems), and then it's off to send it in for competition. Except it in no later than September 6th.

After seeing what's going on in TBTTRAH Mafia 4, I decided to go back to the drawing board and change things around. Here are the roles for TBTTRAHM5:
Mafia(5)
Brotherhood(3)
SK(1)
Snitch(1)
Anti-Snitch(1)
Detective(1)
Villagers(8)
There is no doctor. In his place is the invincibility powerup. The invincibility powerup is randomly given to a player at the start of the game, and is passed around from there, either by the holder dying or using it. Powerups will become more common in la
Time again for the MT Report.....
Brilliant Move of the Month: Guitar Hero Metallica. Everyone knows Metallica, it's something for all the metal fans out there, and it's 10 billion times cooler than having a game with "Aerosmith"(seriously?) on your cover. Plus, those commercials("Who you callin' pops?") are hilarious.
Stupid Move of the Month: LEGO Rockband. Are you kidding me? Just when this whole series couldn't get any lamer. They're having minifigs dancing on a stage. Who is that (out
Well, Assassin has apparently gone AFK forever. So we need a replacement. This time around though, we'll have several candidates on the table...here's our lineup...
HBBG(been affiliated with the Zehvor for several months, close friend of mine)
Var(leader of the Toa Rojos, tried and failed to get in the Zehvor earlier)
Shadrahk(tried to fake being in the Zehvor once and got caught)
Mr. Matoro(if you don't know this guy and you're a Zehvor, you may need to have your brain checked by a profes
So I was at a Gamestop today, and I noticed at the checkout counter they had a Reach alarm clock of sorts(it was in a display case with a bunch of Spartan figures on top) that was counting down the days(only 10) to the new Halo. I forgot to take a picture of it with my cell phone, so I was wondering if anyone had seen something like it and new where it was available for purchase.
