Rune Factory: Frontier video review by Mitalis
Behold! Another video review by yours truly. I reviewed Rune Factory: Frontier for the Nintendo Wii; which was released on March 17, 2009.
This review covers everything from the story introduction, specific game features, graphics, music & audio, game controls, a few personal recommendations, and my personal experience playing the game so far. Rosie O’Donnell also makes a guest appearance. Check it out!
Nooooooooo! Chantelle you slutty whore of a BITCH! You've been sleeping with other MEN??!
Well this story blows my prior blog post about Alfie and Chantelle out of the water..
A recent DNA test conducted on Alfie Patten confirms that he is NOT the father of Maisie Roxanne.
The news came as a blow to Alfie who insisted that he was the only boyfriend that Chantelle had, since being together for two years. When Chantelle found out she was pregnant, he asked her “Am I the dad?” and she answered “Yes.”
You know Chantelle, you could have used Farmer John's sausages as an alternative rather then getting it from a 12 year old. They're probably the same size...
Apparently that isn’t the case. Chantelle told her half-sister Jodie that the father could have been one of many boys she slept with at her parents’ home.
For whatever reason, Chantelle’s mother ordered her to claim that she was a virgin up until the time Alfie slept with her.
Seriously Chantelle’s mother is one fucked up lady. I’m surprised child protective services haven’t pulled Chantelle and Maisie away from that woman. The mother clearly doesn’t give a shit (or maybe is just incredibly fucking stupid?) about all these boys sleeping the night over at her house; and NOW you have her ordering Chantelle to lie about her virginity? Somebody please get me a baseball bat.
So the question is… Who IS the father? Some other 12-17 year old boy? As of now the real father is unknown. Oh and Chantelle, you really are a whore…

OnLive - A company to offer cloud gaming.
OnLive – a concept developed from Steve Perlman, is a demand service that could change the way you game.
Instead of spending thousands of dollars continuously upgrading your PC to play the latest and greatest games, the OnLive servers would handle that processing. Imagine being able to play Crysis on a netbook. That’s what the OnLive service is hoping to achieve.
So how does it work? Think cloud computer gaming.
Your controller or keyboard/mouse signals are sent directly over the internet to the OnLive machines where they send back video of your reaction/movement. In a normal case scenario, you have the game as the client that sends your the information to the online server. Now you just have this dumb client that acts as the gateway between you and OnLive.
OnLive uses patented video compression along with algorithms that are supposed to compensate for any lag, packet loss during the process. OnLive claims their servers will be able to process the video compression and deliver the video back to you in less then 1 millisecond (ms).
The video can be delivered up to 720p resolution and framerate of 60 FPS. The overall quality of the game your playing depends on your connection speeds. To play these games at 720p, you need at least a 5 mbps connection, standard definition television games require at least 1.5 mbps.
This also means that you wouldn’t have to deal with installing games, the games would be readily available to you – video games on demand.
In addition, you could broadcast what you see on your screen to your friends or any observer.
The whole idea of having the games centralized in a controlled environment is appealing to the publisher. It essentially kills piracy, and the need to put DRM on their games. For a consumer, it means not having to deal with cheaters in online games.
Several video game publishers like THQ, EA, Ubisoft, Atari, Warner Bros, Take-Two, Epic Games, Codemasters have already jumped on-board. For game developers, there’s little modification that needs to be done to make their games run with OnLive. They also provide a SDK (Software Development Kit) to help speed up the process.

If you don’t feel the desire to carry around a laptop when you’re on the go, they have a micro-console. The console is roughly the size of your hand. It acts as the video decoding hub, which includes 2 USB ports, support for 4 bluetooth devices, and audio/video outputs via HDMI & optical connection. It’s expected to be priced considerably lower then any current generation console, and possibly free if you sign up with an OnLive service contract.
The OnLive Console
No definite price or monthly subscription cost has been confirmed, it’s still being debated internally, but it’s said to be on par with the monthly Xbox Live fee.
OnLive is currently undergoing internal beta testing. An open beta is planned for this summer, and the service is expected to launch shortly around fall 2009.
With more and more companies offering their products and services online, I hope those ISPs like Comcast & AT&T that are now imposing bandwidth caps change their mind because what they’re essentially doing is putting a nail in the coffin for these businesses.
