After a (fairly huge) delay, I have finally gotten around to installing some new forums.
They may not seem like much, but that’s the point behind them.
I’m starting them as basic as possible. However, I will be adding features as they are needed. Remember, if there is something you want to see in the forums, don’t hesitate to suggest it.
You can find the new forums at the old URL: http://kaosteam.110mb.com/forums OR at the navigation link at the top-right of this page.
Hey guys, its been awhile since my last post. Some of you have been wondering about the status of the site, so I figure I’ll answer that.
Although there hasn’t been much activity lately, this site. isn’t dead, I just havent quite found out a use for it yet. It was originally built as a headquarters for our clan Team Kaos. However, our clan hasn’t really been active lately, and therefore neither has the site.
I am thinking of revamping the place in the near future though, so if you have any ideas, send them to me (Contact info later in post).
Some things that I do want to do:
Start a new forum – Although there arent much of us here, we do still need a place we can hang out and chat when we want to.
Internet Radio Station – When I get my server PC fixed, I want to try my hand at hosting an internet radio station
A couple of other neat projects – I like to work on neat little projects, so there may be a few more things coming and going.

If you want to comment on this post, you can, but I have been getting megaspam lately, so I may not see your reply. I am currently looking into some antispam plugins.
I’ve had a minecraft server up for… quite some time now, but I haven’t given it its proper spot on the internet. Today, I announce the Kaos Team Minecraft Server Website!
On it, you will find all the info you need to get up and running and connected to our server in no time! You can also find various information on the various mods and added gameplay mechanics we employ on the server. It is also wise to check it frequently, especially when problems arise, as news on it will be posted there FIRST.
Hope to see you there!
A bit late here, but the new Nintendo 3DS is now out in stores! Featuring 3D visuals, a large lineup of build in software, and a list of AAA games waiting to come out for it, you can’t go wrong with getting one.
That aside, I picked mine up launch-day, and I was near the only person in line. I was told by a Gamestop representative that they had only 40 or so pre-orders. A tad disappointing considering that the 3DS is said to be the most pre-ordered console ever, beating the previous record holder (The PS3) by roughly 70%.
Overall, I am very happy with my Cosmo Black Nintendo 3DS and my copy of Street Fighter 4: 3D. My only complaint (and this is a fairly big one) is that mine and three other’s 3DS’ top screens are rather loose. It makes playing certain games such as Face Raiders very difficult. I may send it in in the future, so I’ll be sure to post an update on that.
22 Days left till the big day ( just 20 for those of you in Europe).
Starting on countdown day 20 (hopefully) I will be posting news roundups about the 3DS and dish out the most useful news for it.
For today: DoA’s character list was released, as well as some gameplay footage. I tell you it is SMOOTH. Video and list after the break.
Sony officially announced the successor to the PSP earlier today at their press event in Tokyo. The device, codenamed the NGP (Next Gen Portable) features dual analogs, two cameras, and two multi-touch panels, one of the front OLED display, and a touchpad on the b(One on the front and one on the back). This system is said to come fairly close to the PS3 in terms of graphical capability. It sports a quad-core ARM Cortex – A9 Core processor and an SGX543MP4+ GPU, which is also a quad-core unit.
Sega’s latest ‘revamp’ of the Sonic series.
To those that have been keeping tabs on the articles posted here (all three of you), you may have seen my recent coverage of Sonic the Hedgehog 4. I’ll admit that I’m a big fan of the blue blur, but I have been sorely disappointed in the latest installments to the Sonic franchise. (Admittedly, Sonic Unleashed was pretty fun, sans the Werehog bits.)
This game was released… somewhat recently, and I got my hands on the iPhone and the PS3 edition.
For the iPhone, this game was just atrocious. Unplayable even. In my book, you NEED an analog and at least two buttons to play any game properly.
For the PS3, I kinda liked it at first… but the further I progressed, the more tedious and challenging the levels became. Usually a bit of difficulty is to be expected, but these started to feel more like death-trap filled obstacle courses than actual Sonic levels. They weren’t about gaining speed and using said speed to advance, and using skill to dodge what traps were there; it was ALL traps, all the time.
Not only that, but Sega seemed to be working a little too hard for that ‘nostalgia factor’ in this one. It got to the point where this really looked like a large amalgamation of previous Sonic levels and gimmicks. In fact, there seems to be little new content introduced.
However, its not the level design that gets me… Its the physics of the game. You can try this yourself: Run REALLY fast, jump, and then release the analog stick. Sonic SHOULD still be going forward, but he comes to a dead stop. In the air.
You can be rolling down a hill in ball form, but you HAVE to hold forward to gain any kind of momentum (momentum that is instantly lost when you let go of forward).
The game is certainly nostalgic in looks, but as for actual gameplay, its a LOOOONG way off.
For the price, however, its not too bad of a buy. If you want something to mess with, or are just curious about it, then buy it and check it out.
With all of the rumors of a PSP related phone device circulating for what seems like years, it now seems to have proof of its existence.
Its supposed to be using Android 3.0 (Gingerbread) and has a 1GHz processor. Yes, you heard right. A 1GHz processor. In a portable device. That pretty much trumps about all other portable devices out there right now in terms of raw computing power.
It will have 512mb Ram. 1GB of ROM, and a screen that is roughly 4 inches. There is apparently a multitouch pad too. And if you thought it would take a Sony MemoryStick, you were wrong. This handheld device will support MicroSD cards.
More info as its made available.
But yeah, I’m pretty excited about the PSPhone.
UPDATE: Sony denies the existence of said PSPhone, however, there does seem to be some sort of phone related device in the works.
Nintendo released more info about the 3DS earlier today, including a few trailers, price info, and of course, the release date!
Heres a trailer featuring some 3DS action, most notable for the sleep mode connectivity, and the terrible acting:
In my previous post, I mentioned that the 3DS is basically a handheld powerhouse.
However, it appears that the specs of the system have been leaked by a number of developers.
So heres the info:
Processor: Two 266MHz ARM11 CPU’s
GPU: 133MHz GPU, 4MBs of dedicated VRAM (Said to actually be underclocked to 133, the original having 200MHz)
RAM: 64MB
Internal Storage: 1.5GB, as opposed to the DSi’s 256MB.
Many dev’s have said that this thing is actually near on par with current-gen systems, albeit with a lower resolution.
I myself cant wait for more info on this and eagerly anticipate more info. Speaking of, keep your eyes on the calender for the 29th, as thats when Nintendo is going to go more in depth on the system, discussing release date and pricing!
