YOUTUBE!

Recently I have been trying to get myself a name on youtube by posting video gameplay on certain games I enjoy.
I tried this once with a few other games on my older accounts but they didn't seem to do very well but I haven't given up and I'm trying again!

If you enjoy watching video games on youtube go check out this one below!

WARFRAME BETA (PART 1) 

I'm trying to get myself a partnership with Machinima as well to get myself to stand out.
I hope I'm successful and I hope you enjoy the video!

Ciao.

The Three Big Consoles


Weather you're going to buy a PS3, Xbox 360 or Wii U. Keep in mind that the next generation of consoles have been rumoured to be releasing this year, possibly this fall but don't get too excited because most consoles always promise us one thing then want to change certain things so I don't think the PS4 (Orbis) or Xbox 720 (Durango) will be in sight till at least next year 2014, trust me.

The Orbis rumoured to have no discs involved or discs that can't be used twice with another account so that disc is bound to one account meaning that the disc can not be resold as a pre-owned product. One of the reasons being because the developers don't earn anything from the pre-owned sales and not enough of the new discs will be purchased. This one thing has me wondering whether I want to get a PS4 in the future because I've bought plenty of pre-owned games and I've started with Sony since the early days of the PS1, PS2, PSP then the PS3. I feel that Sony are going to start asking for money since they offer free online play on their PS3 system. Other than that I don't have any other knowledge on what else Sony are going to do so far..


Now the Xbox 720 codename Durango is a bit different, I hear the "kinect" is going to be a little different as in the game is going to come to life in your livingroom sort of like a 3D feel. But does that mean we have to purchase 3DTV's as well? This might turn a lot of heads as the 3D genre is becoming more of a thing but can be a bit pricey.
Rumours also say the same with this console that you can't play used games, maybe everything will be digital? But then I think games will then become more expensive. They say both consoles PS / Xbox will have AMD Radeon Graphics as well, what kind? Who knows?

Then we have the Wii U, already released on the 30th of November this console has a way to go to even catch up to the PS3 and Xbox 360 in my opinion. Its buggy and doesn't really contain a high amount of storage leaving you to fork out for more storage. So my verdict..DON'T BUY ONE TILL THEY GO DOWN IN PRICE! In all fairness though the Wii U does look pretty cool. But its early days! So think wisely before buying one and wait for more announcements on the other two new consoles being confirmed at E3 this year!

Take care
Ciao.

Japan, the best place I've ever been to.


JAPAN
ONE OF THE BEST PLACES I'VE BEEN TO VISIT.

Not really sure when this was, but it was a very long time ago I visited my brother in Japan, Kyoto.
I arrived in Osaka which later I visited before I left to go back to England.
But when I was younger I had always wanted to visit Japan, my brother got the chance  and managed to find a job and place in Kyoto. I came to visit after my brother was there for quite a while during the Christmas and new year period. I took as many pictures as I could but because I had quite a bad camera in those days the pictures don't look as amazing as I think they could of now and I actually had a lot more pictures than what I have saved but somehow managed to lose them..



This was the place nearest to me I stayed at as I past this area on a bus the first day I came to Kyoto I was amazed by how big this thing was, It was HUGE! One of my favourite pictures I possibly took there.


 This picture is by far my favourite, I didn't leave this one to last. It is called the Kinkaku-ji temple a buddhist temple in Kyoto. For a crappy camera I thought it was an amazing shot. I hope to one day revisit this temple and take better pictures. We couldn't actually go inside but there were plenty of cute little koi fish surrounding it which I did have a picture of one but again I lost it :( Definately a place worth checking out if you ever visit Kyoto.


Another place I visited during my visit to Osaka. The Osaka Castle.


As we climbed to the top of this Castle..This was the view, you could see the whole of Osaka. Just like in the next picture..


Osaka is a big place, feels larger than Kyoto it reminded me a lot like London but safer, Lol >_<


And of course..We did do some karaoke!

If I had more pictures, I'd of posted all of them on here but these were the best that I picked out of a selection I have.
If you're crazy about Japan like I am..Definately check this place out you won't be disappointed.
Kyoto was mostly the place I spent my time, it did snow, it was sunny and hot, and it did rain so winter time in Japan is varied I guess. Every shop I went to visit during Christmas time made my eyes light up. I never wanted to leave after my week there. Unfortnately I never experienced an earthquake whilst there and they're very common, even small ones yet after I did leave the very next day Kyoto had a small one. Shame :(

I'm going to visit again one day..MARK MY WORDS!

Ciao.

In a blog far far away..

A new blog from code name Retro Kitty NEKO! was born!

Now I won't be talking too much about myself in every blog as I used to do this kind of thing when I had a LiveJournal account long ago in early 2000. But I will try my best with this blog.

But I will be making short or long reviews on certain ANIME, MUSIC, GAMING, FOOTBALL, TRAVELLING, COMPUTING, ETC.. related interests that I have. And I do hope you too take an interest in what I have to say about them. I will put some random bits and pieces into the blog about myself and what wonders I discover in my life.

So without further ado lets get this blog started! ^_^!
