I’ve done a sexah post about the iPhone before, but it wasn’t as cool as this one.
This is a little app where when you shake the iPhone you get virtual jiggly boobs.
It not super great physics as they look a bit rubbery as they bounce around, but the idea is pretty cool. I’m sure it would keep many a guy (and some gals) staring at their iPhone for any length of time.
I am sad to say that Apple did denied this app of iBoobs. Not sure if that means you can NEVER get it but I guess it’s not an official app from the Apple store. I say that Mr. Jobs need to lighten up a bit… they’re just boobs. ^_^
Okay, so I was going to post this yesterday but Tentacle Grape won out, so I think the last post of this year should bring together the things that I really like.
Video games, Japan and sexy/naughty stuff.
Which is why I’m bringing you of yet another sexy DS game.
It’s called Hatchi Koi and it’s a dating game where you’ll have the chance to woo one of 7 girls of various types (scroll down). The sporty girl, the shy mousy girl, the tough girl, the girl with big hooters and looks a little cracked out, the chubby girl… wait… what? Yes, the chubby girl. It’s one of few games I’ve seen where you can gain the attraction of an over weight lass. I don’t know about you but I personally like girls with a bit of meat on them, so to speak. Skinny chicks are fine, but I so dig my ladies to be a little bit big, which is why I find I’m draw to the chubby girl in this game ^_^
Anyway, as you progress though the game you get to talk to the ladies and play such mini games as putting lotion on their back at the beach and um… well, that’s really all they’re showing currently. But who cares! I’m totally sold ^_^
The game comes out sometime next spring in Japan. Damn it! We so need these games out over here! >_<
Today I finished Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door.
Woo!
I’ve been playing it off and on again for over a year now but it all came together this morning before my morning meeting (and during a little. I love having meetings at my desk ^_^). For the past week and a bit now I’ve been stocking up on items for the final battle. Getting money is a bit of a pain in the game so I traveled to the casino and traded in my winnings for items and then took them to the local chef so they could be made in to even better items. Wow… what a shore that was… o_O I usually try and find all the items and such when I play though, but because my game time is so limited I’m just going to move on. Over all though, a very nice game. Fun to play and actually quite challenging. I give it 4 out of 5.
So after the credits rolled I got thinking… I don’t remember the last console game that I finished was. I play DS all the time and beat lots of games on it. I beat Half Life 2 and Portal on PC earlier this year, but I couldn’t tell you the last time I finished a console title. I’ve started a bunch, but due to lack of time I’ve wandered away from them. That makes me kind of sad.
Next on my list to play is Killer 7 (talk about opposite end of the game spectrum eh ^_^). I’ve been looking forward to it for a long time now.
So what’s the last game you’ve completed recently? Or, how long has it been since you’ve beat a game.
There, I said it. People like to ask where I work and while I won’t let that out I figured it won’t hurt to let it known where I used to work. So Gameloft was the place (Montreal studio) and I was a pretty heavy hitter there from what producers tell me. I actually had the studio director tell me one day that when new projects start up the local producers would always ask if I would be on their team. He said he’d never seen anything like it. I worked there for about 5 years before I packed it all up for greener pastures.
I was generally the guy that designed the menus and interfaces. It wasn’t uncommon for me to be on my primary project and helping two other ones with their interface. Ah yes… good times.
Why did I leave? Well, I was only allowed to go so high in the ranks. I wanted to be the lead 2D artist at my studio and they wouldn’t let me (a position I held previously and was screwed over for). Senior artist was all that I could get and I only got that title because I was the art that was there the longest. I wanted to be more involved in the creative process and design but what always held back. So away I went. But it was also during my time there that I was asked to be a speaker at the Montreal International Game Summit (talked to over 100 people about my area of expertise) and was asked to be in a book called “Character Design for Mobile Devices” so even though the job might have ended on a bit of a sour note I learned a ton about the industry and grew so much in my field.
So now you know. So next time you play a Gameloft game, you might just be playing a game I was involved in. ^_^
Well, if you answered “yes” to both then this show is for you. It’s called Game Center CX (or Retro Game Master) and it’s about a guy that plays video games… and you watch him. Actually, it’s a bit more in depth. It stars Shinya Arino, one part of a comedy duo in Japan, and he plays some of the best classics from the golden years of gaming. His challenge for each episode is to beat the game he’s playing in one day (sometimes it goes over for two days). He has Assisstant Directors there to help him if things get really challenging during the game play in the way of moral support or level help. He even has titles for his position at the game center. The better he does (more games he beats) the higher his rank and the better the office he gets to play in. If he does poorly and doens’t complete his challenges, he might drop down a rank have to go back to a lower standing office. This actully happend once when he failed to complete 4 games in a row (UltraMan, Final Fight, Adventure Island and ActRaiser).
One of the neatest angles of the show is that Shinya Arino has never played these games before. So you get to see, and sort of relive the experience of these games though his as a first time gamer. How cool is that? He plays game that we know and love like Contra NES, Super Mario Bros 3, Mega Man 2, Ninja Gaiden and Prince of Persia and less known or Japanese only ones like Princess Tomato in the Salad Kingdom, JJ & Jeff and Doraemon. There are also segments where he visits old arcades, plays old systems in his home and even interviews some game desingers.
The show has gone on for 10 seasons now and even has DVD released boxsets in Japan (and maybe in North America too). You can watch a lot of the episodes here as I’ve been doing but be warned, they are all in Japanese. But that doesn’t mean you can’t watch and understand the frustration or joy on Shinya Arino’s face and he attemps these game challenges.
Oh, here is a site with full info on the show. Check it out. I higly recomend it. ^_^
He’s a 78 year old man in Japan and he LOVES his American made first person shooters. Yup, you read that right…. love’s em.
Akira Kitajima first started on DOOM II when he was 65 and never looked back. Now he even has a web site up with a list of games he’s played and the walkthroughs he’s made up for them. That’s hardcore in my books. I’ve been playing games since I knew what they where and I’ve NEVER written a walkthrough (and I don’t plan on it ether). He has some 25 titles under his belt and is waiting, and wondering, if Far Cry 2 will ever make it to Japan.
Good on ya old man. I hope I’m as hardcore as you are when I reach that age.
Funny how as we get older we’ll pick up new hobbies we might not have been interested in our younger days. I have a friend who’s Dad took up wine tasting after he retired. Took classes on it and now makes his own. Crazy… I wonder what things I’ll want to try when I get on in years…
Oh, and congrats America on the largest simultaneous rick roll during your Thanksgiving day parade. ^_^
