HTTP:: Sprung Unlockables V DS
--------
Video games can tackle a wide range of genres, from shooters, in either first- or third-person view, to intricate, role-playing or racing titles. But, sometimes, in an effort to find innovation and to “break” the market, some developers try more unorthodox approaches.Such is the case with Guillemot Inc., which is responsible for the dating simulator Sprung. The title, which was published by Ubisoft, appeared on December 8, 2004 in North America and reached European shores on March 11, the next year.The purpose of the game is to meet up, talk and eventually hook up with other people, depending on one's genre. The location is at a remote winter resort called Snowbird Mountain, where players can interact with other characters and complete all of the 50 dating missions included in the main story. From interacting with drama queens and kings to more normal characters, Sprung promises a great story, penned by Colleen McGuinnes from the famous TV series North Shore.“We're th!
rilled to bring three genre-leading titles to the Nintendo DS that each reach a very different, yet broad, audience,” Tony Kee, vice president of marketing, Ubisoft, said about Sprung and a few other titles for the platform. “The Nintendo DS is an innovative and unique portable videogame system. We're excited to match that ...

Pingie: HTTP:: Sporting Days in the United Kingdom

HTTP:: Sporting Days in the United Kingdom
--------
The summer months are long and hot and the relative lack of movement in the United Kingdom videogame chart seems to reflect that. Still, it makes sense to take a look at it and see which games perform in these tough economic times.The top position remains in the hands of Wii Sports Resort from Nintendo, which is being published for the Wii home gaming console. It's not clear whether the game is successful because players enjoy the activities included, like cycling, archery and wakeboarding, or because it is sold together with the Wii Motion Plus, an add-on for the Wiimote, which promises more complete motion tracking for upcoming games.Second spot in the chart is taken over by another Nintendo Wii bound game, Wii Fit, which was released last year and still manages regular top ten finishes. EA Sports breaks the Nintendo monopoly on the top positions with Tiger Woods PGA Tour 10, another sports-oriented game.Harry Potter & The Half Blood Prince, released by Electronic Art!

Pingie: HTTP:: Female Body Hatred Crisis or What Happens When Perfection Becomes Norm

HTTP:: Female Body Hatred Crisis or What Happens When Perfection Becomes Norm
--------
Women are going through what has already been labeled the most severe and potentially damaging crisis in the history of mankind. With images of perfection plastered all around them, they have come to realize that nothing short of perfection is expected from them as well, which, in turn, has led to them developing a feeling of pure hatred towards their bodies. When perfection becomes norm, women are nearly lost, William Leith writes for the Daily Mail. Leith says women are in crisis because beauty has come to mean much more than each individual’s attractiveness rated arbitrarily. The media has helped set up certain standards that all women feel forced to meet and, clearly, when they fail to do so (or, similarly, come to the realization they couldn’t attain such ideals in a thousand years), they start hating what they have become, at the same time trying to change it. When they fail at that too, they enter a vicious circle consisting of attempts and failure which keeps !
the economy going (be that circle dieting, working out, or beauty treatments and cosmetic procedures), Leith says. “This female body-hatred has got out of hand. You can see it in magazines in the newsagents. From a distance, the predominant color is the tawny-pink of perfect female flesh. And then...

HTTP:: Spore Creatures Hints DS
--------
Spore was one of last year's biggest and most hyped-up titles to appear. Being the next big thing from Sims creator Will Wright and promising to let players create their own creature and then guide it through the stages of its evolution, the title became very popular on the PC.But the new franchise has also received a handheld version, in the form of Spore Creatures, which was made through a collaboration between the owner of the rights and the creator of the PC version, Maxis, and Foundation 9. The title was released on September 5, 2008 in Europe and in North America on September 7, the same year.It borrows a lot of features from the PC version, as it will allow players to have the same basic experience, which touches on creativity, exploration, sharing and collecting. The unique features of the Nintendo DS are the stylus, the touchscreen setup and the wireless connection that is included. The game focuses more on the creature phase and has its own creator that has the sa!
