First off I woke up this morning at 8:45 completely rejuvenated and rearin' to go. My parents came to my friends house and we all ate breakfast. As our parents were talking my friend showed me some funny youtube videos(which I will show on Friday for youtube Friday) and reminded me of a show called The Weekenders. It was such a great show, I used to watch it all the time when I was little. The theme was sung by Wayne Brady. If you don't know who he is, he is the black guy on Whose Line is it Anyway. If you don't know that show, go watch it on youtube or hulu(I don't know if they have it on hulu), it's hysterical. After I got home I got ready to go to GameStop for an event to get a shiny Suicune for my pokemon games.
Suicune(shiny)
It was only when I arrived there that I found out that the event wasn't going to happen until tomorrow. So before my siblings and I left we looked around a little at some games we could buy. We stumbled across a Dragon Ball Z fighting game(it was out of our price range at the time).We asked if it was a 2-D fighting game and we were told that it was like the street fighter styled fighting. So we drove back home, gathered all the game systems and games for those systems that we didn't play with any more(we didn't trade away our Gamecube though(it was a gift)). We lugged them back to the store only to find that we had to be 18 to trade stuff in for store credit. So I went back to the house to pick up my dad to bring him all the way down there just to watch us get a game. Then we drove back home, excited to play our new game. We popped it in the XBox 360, got to the versus mode, picked our characters and as the prebattle animation ended, we realized that it was 3D fighting. I personally was enraged(I don't like 3D fighting styled fighting games) because I had just wasted all that time and gas to get a game that I was going to hate. So I called up GameStop and told them what happened, they said that I could bring in that game and trade it in for a different game. When I got there, they told me that no one made 2D Dragon Ball Z fighting games anymore. I was disappointed because DBZ Budokai 3 was my favorite 2D fighting game that I have ever played. So we thought about what 2d fighting game we wanted(we bought a fighting game to begin with and we were going to get one in the end) and decided to get Super Street Fighter IV. When we got home we slipped it in and proceeded to play it (we are still playing it now, I am taking a break to write this and my little brother is doing the Arcade Mode for Guy). The person I usually play as on this game(the grand total of two times(other than now)) is Juri Han. My brother played as Cammy and I beat him. We played more doing different characters and having random matches(like a boxer match(Balrog VS Dudly). Then we proceeded to eat dinner then came back and continued to play this to right now as we speak as I explained earlier.
There is no What Happened at WarrenTech? since it was a weekend today.
Now it is time for me to start the weekly thing that I promised you. Sunday shall contain "Video Game Character of the week" (at least until I can find something better to do with Sundays).
So the Video Game Character of the Week is..........................................................Dan Hibiki!
Dan Hibiki is a character from, you guessed it, the Street Fighter games. Dan is a joke character usually given highly obnoxious and exaggerated moves and usually isn't very strong. But he is one of the most loved characters in the series. Especially since he has his own podcast(not really its on a flash movie on Newgrounds; but I would subscribe to it if it did exist). For more info on Dan Hibiki go to his page on the Street Fighter Wiki website.
That concludes my blog for today, thank you for reading and I'll see you tomorrow.
