Hey there, guys. Sorry for the late journal entry into this month since things have been going hectic in my place once again. Can you believe that? But other than that, I have been going fine in my end and hopefully is stays that way now that I have also have gone back this semester to college. But the good thing about this semester is that I only have 2 classes that I have to go to since I am almost done with getting my Master's in Advertising which hopefully I should be able to finish hopefully by the fall semester later this year. The classes that I have to take this semester are Advanced Strategic Communications Seminar and the Professional Project Orientation(which I have to go for 3 sessions which the first one starts on Feb.5; the second one is on Feb.26 and the last one is on the week of Mar. 28). Basically, the orientation from what I heard is pretty much on them explaining on how to do the Professional Project before I take the actual one on the fall semester since they don't offer it on the summer and I was told that I have to do it this way from what I am doing now. But at least the other class that I'm doing is a class that I meet up with once a week which is fine by me and best of all from it, there is no final or mid-term exam on it. But the teacher from what I have seen there is actually a good one and fair to his students. ^^

Overall on that, I hope everything turns things around for me and my family this year and goes well. Because also, I keep stressing this out that this country itself needs to recover itself on its economy and Obama really needs to do something about it because I want to start working again in a job since I want to earn some money and I'm sure all of you would agree with me on this. But as of now, I'm hanging in there.

Going into personal stuff, not long ago they have released the movie Alpha and Omega on DVD and I plan to get it anytime soon(I'm a sucker for wolves) not to mention my birthday is coming up soon now next month which I intend to get a Playstation 3 and also the fact of Marvel vs Capcom 3 coming out soon since I reserved for the Collector's Edition for it. Anyone who has been following up with MvC 3 lately should have heard by now that they recently have confirmed 2 more new characters in the game who are Akuma(Street Fighter series) and Taskmaster(Deadpool's enemy). Here is a video of these 2 in action http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M4WPINGRW88 . The Taskmaster has a really interesting fighting style which I may consider using him in the game along with Zero, Chris Redfield, Viewtiful Joe, X-23, Wolverine and Iron Man not just he looks cool, but Steven Blum(one of my favorite voice actors) does this character along with Wolverine. If you look at Taskmaster's style, he is basically a MvC version of Link itself. As for Jon Talbain(werewolf from Darkstalkers) there is this forum that there are fans wanting to see him in Marvel vs Capcom 3 and here is the link for it http://www.capcom-unity.com/ask_cap.....last#482337257 . I have signed up for it and by tommorow there is going to be a link on the Gamespot forum where people can vote to see who makes it into the top 6 from what I have heard from both Marvel(top 6) and Capcom(top 6) since they are going into the 4th round(which is the final round). Once the round is over, it will be sent to the staff of MvC 3 at Capcom to place them for the DLC lineup. Anyone out there who is a fan of the wolf boy there like me, please support him and vote him in the site in Gamespot where it is going to be a petition thread for the DLC lineup. Because Talbain is not only has been one of the most requested Darkstalkers character to be in a crossover fighting game since MvC 1(most requested for 13 years), but also the most popular Darkstalkers alongside with Felicia and Morrigan. He really needs this chance to be in it and deserves it who has been ignored long enough which isn't fair for him and even those from Capcom should be aware of this by now. But from the results of round 3 of the petition thread, I find it odd that Phoenix Wright from Capcom is in the top 10 there with the most votes along with Jon Talbain. Because I honestly don't see him as a fighter there since he is a lawyer. Whoever's been voting for him to be as a DLC character is really wasting their time with voting him since I have a feeling that even Capcom may not agree with it for him to be a fighter even though I don't have anything against him. Hell even Niitsuma(producer/director of Marvel vs Capcom 3) has said it before of using Talbain either for the on-disc roster or DLC since he knows that he has yet to be playable and to appear to be in a Capcom crossover fighting game. But anyone who is a member of Gamespot and is aware of the voting for it for tommorow and wants to vote for Talbain there, they need to follow the rules for it there and I'll post the link in this journal when I update it.

Also, from my friend  celestialien86 , there is a link of this person who wants to make a Starfox animated movie which he tends to keep it true to the source as it should be and here are some links to prove it http://www.facebook.com/album.php?a.....727&ref=mf and http://starfox-online.net/2011/01/0.....ous-sf-film-2/ . They have even given the release date for the upcoming 3DS handeheld that Nintendo is coming up with which is March 27 and it is going to be priced at $250. As much as I want to get it, that seems a bit too steep for a handheld which is practically the same price when the Wii first came out. I'll just wait until they lower the price further and only then I'll get it for sure. Right now the PS3 is my main focus. But I will continue keeping an eye to what Nintendo has in store for the Wii this year especially with E3 2011 looming down the horizon which begins in June this year. I have a gut feeling that Nintendo will finally reveal a new Starfox Wii game at the expo along with Pikmin 3. Because these have been the talk from the fans as of lately since the Wii first came out in 2006 and now the Wii has entered into in its 5th year not to mention that these 2 have been long overdue for the Wii. I also think that this year they will be the next DK and Kirby for this year since they are the only 2 major franchises that we still have yet to see before the Big N moves onto the next home console. Honestly, I don't think that we're going to see a new Metroid game for the Wii and the same goes for the Mario platformers on the Wii to be shown at E3 2011 this year and for a while and it is time to start giving some of their other 1st-party franchises that we have yet to see like Starfox, Pikmin and F-Zero(hopefully) on the Wii a chance to shine in the spotlight.

As for my pics, more will be on the way my friends. So hang in there.
