Lee Jung Hyun’s MV for “I Love You Chul-Soo” is basically Ouendan. (hit the jump for the video)
In the music video she takes the role of 7 different characters (librarian, cheerleader, waitress, etc) all who inspire some guy (or many guys) to do better.
Lots of comic book frames with animations and big word bubbles. Got me thinking, there needs to be more interactive music video games (flash based or whatever), sorta like The Chemical Brothers did with Galvanize.

Traumatized

Ok, got Trauma Center for the Wii for Xmas from my girlfriend (sorta to herself as well because she was better at the DS version than me).

The game is daunting. Even going to the game channel in the Wii interface to start it, kicking industrial music starts up, and the game proclaims to you: “I’m going to kick your ass if you try to play me”. Games don’t usually make me nervous, but it’s a cool kind of nervous.

And it got me thinking Kaneko Kazuma + Medical fetish = Best Halloween Costume Ever.
That and hexagons! Lots of hexagons!
This warm fuzzy really helps tide me over until Persona 3.

From my standpoint as a gamer and one who was made fun of by other kids for a piece of my school life, I do have a strong curiosity of how this game goes about explaining Columbine and the stand that it takes. This was posted on Kotaku a couple days ago and it recieved a fair share of pissed off comments. I’ll reserve judgement until I play it.

On tonight’s show: I dunno, lol.

We’ll take a look at whether Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan or Elite Beat Agents has more sillyness, and Super Columbine Massacre RPG bringing a type of controversy usually only seen in documentaries to gaming. Music and quips will be served inbetween.

The age-old combat: Pets vs. Video Games. With games becoming more and more interactive, the physical space previously dominated by our pets is now being invaded. The anecdotes of jealous pets in the comments are worth skimming.

11 Year-Olds and WoW Raiding

What do you get when you cross an 11 year old with a guild full of… not-11-year-olds? Scariness. A scary but real slice-of-life. On one hand it’s funny, on the other, as people in the channel express, “when I was 11 years old, I was playing with Legos,” not hitting on girls.

Some more notable quotes:

“SHUTUP YOU LITTLE NI##ER”
“shes a lesbian? i wanna get sandwiched between that.”
“lets talk about what we do at tittybars”
“my regular penis is bigger then your boner”
“I got my girlfriend after they saw my peepee”
“incoming e-date”
“I bet she has like milk coming out of her nipples she so horny”

And probably the most sad quote of them all,

“sharding bloodfang in 10 seconds”

An appearance from a very meyowy cat, and you’ve got some lol’s.

Funny vs Not Funny

In continuing research about the SLPenis escapade, I found what amounts to more than just She said, He said. I feel torn in the middle here (this isn’t a goatse joke). While I have an immense distaste for griefing of any sort (especially anything that enters real life), I do generally believe that not-taking-anything-seriously is a good way to approach the internet. Second Life is somewhat differentish in that people are making real money there, so I see a definitive line drawn muddily over there somewhere.

I suppose it goes back to my old distinction:
Heroism vs Terrorism

One of the oldest bastions of Furry culture is now a decade old. The great grandfather to not only micro transactions, user-created content, but MMOs in general. Grats on ding.
