Recently there was a bit of news that made its way on to the interweb that has Poke’ fans going crazy. The new is Poke’mon gold and silver are being remade into Poke’mon heart gold and Poke’mon soul silver coming out for the DS. This news has hardcore Poke’maniacs and secret pokemon players stoked for this new game said to hit japan in fall this year, and rumored to be released mid 2010 for United States. Who didn’t miss these games? The official announcement is on the program pokemon sunday so check it out, if you can understand Japanese.

I’m so excited about these remakes because I loved gold and silver the original games. I had the emulator in japanease before it came out in the U.S.. The reason why I think it was so good was because it had some sick content like the poke’nav wich could be used as a cell phone and a radio and of course the red gyarados. you could also go back to kanto which was awsome and some small subtle things like being able to pick a girl the experience bar wich showed you how much more exp you needed until you level up and making poke’balls out of apricorns.

And now that gold and  silver are coming out for the ds you can get the pokemon like ho-oh and lugia without having to go buy a game cube, and beating the two games for it to get them, now you can just get them with your DS. But I think some changes need to be made to the online component because daimond and pearls online searching function was dissapointing because you had to have seen the pokemon in order to request it.  So dont forget these upcoming title Poke’mon heart gold and soul silver hopefully dropping mid next year, train hard and prosper.

Playing in a sandbox might seem like child’s play but thats hardly the case with the new map “Sandbox” coming out for Halo 3. Sandbox is part of the mythic map pack.  Sandbox is specially built for Halo 3’s “Forge” map editor. It’s a  fully customizable map similar to Foundry (of the Heroic Map Pack). What makes Sandbox unique is the special blue grid that hovers over the entire map. It allows an entirely  new layer on which you can build. This lets you be as creative and original as possible. One could say it brings Forging to a whole new level.

New Forgers be warned the map does have a cap on how many items may be put on the map. This is to try to decrease the amount of posible glitches and or hiccups. This map has a lot of new structures that are specificly designed for Sandbox, which adds up to endless possibilities. This will really help to bring out the inner kid in any gamer if that doesn’t do the trick then the golf equipment  might.
