Wii allocation numbers don't match Nintendo's 2 million quote!

Posted by Jason Triplett

So by now everyone knows that the Wii pre-orders begin tomorrow morning. However, what you may not know is that allocation numbers are really low. Nintendo recently announced that 2 million Wii's would be made ready for launch, with the majority hitting the US. However, gameStop/EB managers nationwide are now reporting that stores will actually get as few as 8 per store, and as many as 16. Yeah, you read that right... The same allocation as PS3.

This is puzzling to say the least. We are surprised to see the small allocations on this console, and have to wonder where all the Wii's are going.

Stay tuned as we dig deeper into this story!

PS3 auctions out of control on E-Bay!

Posted by Jason Triplett

We've been following this story since we broke it yesterday, and it has caused much controversy. E-Bay began removing PS3 auctions since they hit yesterday morning, however there has been an uncontrollable flood of auctions in the last few hours. It has absolutely overwhelmed the E-Bay mods. The average going price is around $1500, though we've seen some as high as $10,000 and even one going for $1,000,000. However, the higher prices like that usually don't get the bids.

We are still waiting on E-Bay's official response to the situation. in the meantime, enjoy the circus!

Volition dev hints at imminent Saints Row patch release!

Posted by Jason Triplett

So what the hell happened to that Saints Row patch the devs were working on? Last time we reorted that they were adding 4x AA as well as a toggled V-Synch, but that was over a month ago. It has been far too long with no word...until now.

It seems the fires have been burning on the official forums regarding this matter, to the point that a developer finally told us all what we wanted to hear. The patch is coming out very soon! When? Well he didn't go THAT far. In fact, his posts are kind of vague. But on the flip side, this is more than they've told us so far!

There is no official ETA as of yet. However, rumor is that the patch may be sent to Microsoft for testing as early as this weekend! That could mean the patch will be out within a week!

See the links below to see what has caused all the hoopla on their forums, and stay tuned to us and the official forums for more on this!

Tito Ortiz in love with Jenna Jameson! (explicit content within, BEWARE!)

Posted by Jason Triplett

Yeah, you read that right. It seems the poor sap has fallen for a glorified hooker. Jenna pussy whipped poor Tito, and now he's thinking with the wrong brain. Tito had this to say:

"I can pretty much say I'm in love with her. I've never met anyone like her. She's an amazing person. Very strong-willed, outgoing person and her attitude is amazing. She's very articulate, smart and cunning.

Her business savvy is amazing. For a girl to go through the career she's done, and to be where she is in life and how much money she's made, and to become the icon she's become, you have to be intelligent to do that."

Normally I'd be inclined to agree, but come on. How "savvy" do you have to be to fuck guys for cash? If she wasn't a porn star (glorified hooker), what would she have? Not shit. No one would care who Jenna Jameson is. She'd just be another piece of ass in a night club you wouldn't bother taking home to mom. Oh wait. That's all she is now!

Hey Tito, next time you fuck that gutter tripe, think of all the strange dick she's had up in there, and continues to have up in there on a daily basis! Better yet, next time you kiss her, think of all the strange loads she's swallowed. You just tongue kissed some guy's spunk!

More proof positive that the dumb jock stereotype is true...

Sony/E-Bay update!

Posted by Jason Triplett

As auctions for the PS3 reach as high as $13,000, E-Bay continues to yank them down one-by-one. We called E-Bay Inc. in hopes of finding out their official stance on this, as well as confirm some of the rumors.

Well, we got through after an hour's wait to a representative, who from the sound of his arabic voice was ousourced to India. He stated that many news organizations, from CNN to IGN were all wanting the same info, and that he could not release it before the official press release. He didn't know when that would be, nor would he say what was in it. He did confirm that any PS3 systems that the site moderators catch on E-Bay will be promptly deleted. If the items is reposted, the seller will be issued a warning. If they persist, they will be banned. Then our conversation ended with a swift "have a nice day".

So as anxious as we are to find the truth behind it all, we have to wait until E-Bay is ready to tell us.

Fanboyism reaches a whole new level of stupidity!

Posted by Jason Triplett

So you THINK you know fanboyism, do you? Well we are happy to tell you that you don't know anything. Forget every single fanboy you'v ever met. They are insignificant next to the guy we are about to show you!

The poor sap who runs http://www.sonydefenseforce.com/ is probably the most extreme, misinformed, and outright RETARDED fanboy sites I have ever seen. One click on the link will show you just how stupid the guy really is. I will admit, some of the photoshopped pictures on the site made me laugh... After you take a gander, come on back, and let us know what you think! oh and manke sure you watch that stupid video he has posted there too!

Back already? Yeah, there isn't much to see. However, you now know the true depths a scared pathetic fanboy will go to, even if misinformed, to protect his beloved...

Rated-M Recommends: "Ninjai: the Little Ninja"

Posted by Jason Triplett


It has been a while since Rated-M has showcased anything via Rated-M Recommends. In fact, it was our story on Broken Lizard if I remember correctly. However, there is something I would like to bring to everyone's attention today. By chance, I came across an independant anime called "Ninjai: The Little Ninja". At first glace, I thought "meh, just another internet cartoon..." Then I watched it...

Ninjai simply blew me away! Ninjai is the story of a young Ninja boy with extraordinary skill. He doesn't quite know who he is, but he must be important somehow, as "demons" are after him. His companion, a disney-esque bird, is absolutely great as the light hearted comic relief. However, as the story turns darker, the bird shows a range of emotions that really make you understand what friendship is all about.

Ninjai doesn't shy away from gore and other adult themed things, but does try to stay somewhat civil with younger viewers in mind. That being said, you will see beheadings, severed limbs, and other such great ninja gore. They have even gone as far as releasing multiple versions of certain episodes, each suited for a different age range.



So why Ninjai, when there are plenty other anime delights to be seen? Well when watching the episodes, you get this feeling of progression and growth, both in the main character and in the animation itself. When you first begin the series, you notice the episodes are rather short and to the point. However, as the plot begins to open up, you begin to realize the scope of Ninjai's mission. And that is another thing I love about this series. The story itself seems to grow.



There is a lot I want to tell you all about the series, but perhaps it is best for you to just watch it yourself. All 12 current chapters can be seen for free on their website, or on G4TV's Late Night Peep Show. We are trying to score an interview with the guys behind the series, so check back for that!

Until then, we give our highest recommendation to the Ninjai gang, and their wonderful anime project, "Ninjai: The Little Ninja".
