Hard News 07/26/11 (Amazon pulls 3DS, new Double Dragon, Battlefield 3 Alpha)

[Rbutler835]

It's been about 7 months since this report, AND STILL NO FREAKING DOUBLE DRAGON! WTF happened? Probably all the fanboy complaints killed the project.

[RONSTAR8]

WTF happened to the new double dragon?

[narutowatcher789]

don't read this because this actually works. you will be kissed on the nearest possible Friday from the love of your life, tomorrow will be the best day of your life; however, if you don't post this to over 3 videos then you will die within two days.now that you've started reading this don't stop. this is so scary! post this to over 5 videos in 143 minutes. when your done press F6 and your crush's name will appear on the screen in big letters. this is scary but it really works.

[littleoaf]

Did anyone else notice how when he says "Battlefield 3 is in its alpha" in the very start how the character on the top right screen lip sync's eerily well?

[alec206]

Yay, Jared is back :D

[TimmzyGuy27]

LOL, i get to plat the Alpha battlefield 3 as my friends just so happen to get a code and has asked me to play with him =]

[Panyc333]

Where's Ben??

[Xidphel]

@Panyc333 He drowned.

[SuperSpriterOteki]

OoT 3D IS RIGHT FUCKING THERE........ oh that's right according to craig, it's a shitty game, even though it's a remake of THE BEST GAME OF ALL TIME ACCORDING TO THE MASSES.

Man do I hate ScrewAttack.

[Xidphel]

@SuperSpriterOteki So you hate screwattack because 1 of their members say that it's a not worth it...

Even though the person in the video above said that it's worth it...

And also, you're commenting in a screwattack video.

...Something's wrong here.

[mad200000]

I got battlefield 3 alpha! o_O

[SteamMonkey115]

@mad200000 Fuck you.

[bobbymendez]

I got sent an alpha code for bf3 but I've got a PS3 and a mac, I don't have a PC so it's useless...how frustrating

[magicfreakme]

@bobbymendez You can give it to me :)

[Gamesrock22]

[adeadlyn3rotoxin11]

I'll tell you what happen to the games for 3DS it got canceled (megaman legends 3)

[MrTanokki]

Anyone else find it strange that a war game Beta starts on September 11th?

[Bob0p]

Fuck amazone because they are assholes.

[ptwob]

noooo, 2d to 3d beat em up, dont do it! keep it 2d, its a gud dam old scool beat em up. hevent we learned anything

[Zeldaschampion]

The 3d is dumb? WTF IS JARED TALKING ABOUT? The 3d works great on the 3DS.

[VlaDZeroOrDie]

@Zeldaschampion He didn't say that the 3D doesn't work, he said that the 3D is dumb, and it actually is. There's not a great improve on the 3D technology, or at least that's what I think

[GODZILLAANDSOUNDWAVE]

0:03 Don't you mean BIMMY AND JIMMY? ROFL.

[TheCodefinder]

@GODZILLAANDSOUNDWAVE lol I was just about to say that :P

[bioo80]

[AliParada]

[stanford331]

i want destin back :(

[hyfynorris]

@stanford331 i don't

[jax1492]

@stanford331 what did happen to destin

[SuperAndre117]

@stanford331 umm Destin left the site to do his own thing, called the daily DL. and....he has been gone for 6 months Were the hell have you been!

[Wynner3]

@SuperAndre117 Not anymore, the Daily DL is gone and Destin is now an Editor at IGN.

[mariopawnch]

@Wynner3 wtf he is at ign?

i thought he went to work with a game studio

[Wynner3]

@mariopawnch That's what I thought too, but he went to the DailyDL and now it's gone. I just read his bio on ign.

[shwangalangadingdong]

@SuperAndre117 Destin is going to Ign soon. He posted it on his facebook.

[TheMiddleman1997]

@SuperAndre117 Actually, he now works for IGN.

[TheManSand322]

good job Rape Master

[lotest11]

Research, yeah right, the last time you got your hands on a game's online beta, we were stuck with Ben(who isn't really that bad but he kept saying "this is instad of that was at the end) for two days, and ironically, that was two days ago.

[TheFloodFourm]

watch someone give him a key



[magicfreakme]

Wait how do they know when the beta is coming out I mean sep 11 Are they really shure? If someone sees this comment and knows anything about it or has a link to some blog or newsletter TO CONFIRM IT send it to me THANKS.

[zarien85]

i hope diuble dragon 2 gets released fro ps3 in the future

[lastexile0]

I definitely don't feel that the "3D is dumb"

[koopadude1]

I love my 3DS!

[Crashfanforever]

3ds complains

1-The battery life is short.(Sorry if you can't play for 10-20 hours but you can play 4-5 hours without wi-fi or 3d.

2-3d is stupid(turn it off to 2d still awsome)

3-Where are all the goddam games(coming out this holiday/early 2012 as seen from nintendo e3 and later to have tons of 3rd party devolper games.)

[targetdemographic]

dosent look sick to me

[gamershark]

Rape master

[likerollinstone]

bimmy and jimmy?

[BigNickGK]

@likerollinstone that was a joke

[xRocketzFighterx]

@likerollinstone

seriously bimmy and jimmy? bimmy isn't a real name. - james rolfe

[CynicalVision]

I'm suddenly thirsty for Dr Pepper and I don't know why.

[morten242]

I GOT THE ALPHA SUCKERS :D

[xRocketzFighterx]

@morten242

You said: "I GOT THE ALPHA SUCKERS :D"

(let me add something to your comment)

"NAH NAH NANAH NAH! XD"

[jamho93]

I GET TO FREAKIN' TEST IT!!! OMG!! I'm so happy! :D

[JimmMyHero]

why would Nintendo announce sales are back to normal? We already know that, maybe they can announce it when someone buys the device

[SectorCodec]

@JimmMyHero I bought the device when it came out, so did 400000 other people, after a couple of months it made 4000000, does this makes us nobodies?

[JimmMyHero]

@SectorCodec no i just feel bad for u T.T

[SectorCodec]

@JimmMyHero I don't mind besides I never played Ocarina of Time before.

[JimmMyHero]

@SectorCodec I played mine on the wii this weekend, zelda is perfect on the tv

[SectorCodec]

@JimmMyHero I think I would have prefer the 3DS version better, I heard on the original one the iron boot is not a item but rather something like the tunic.

[JimmMyHero]

@SectorCodec Yes you have to press start to put them on and off. Not that big of a deal & Water Temple on Master Quest is my fav level. It's also way more challenging to remember the warp songs then having the combo show up b4 you do it. Couple other things too, but imo it requires a specific type of skill to deal w those things then have them fixed and it b easier and less fun. I don't know if u made it to the shadow temple yet, but on a hand held i wudn't b scared playing that

[SectorCodec]

@JimmMyHero Meh when I reach it I'll sit in the closet with headphones on.

[JimmMyHero]

@SectorCodec it will be worth it!

[xRocketzFighterx]

@SectorCodec

its ture also I love the n64, and my gamecube port from wind waker and collectors edition version but the 3DS version is much better, it was really tedious going to the equipment inventory to change your boots all the time.

[MrDarthvader011]

@JimmMyHero what? sorry im not english so i do not understand your comment explain please?

[JimmMyHero]

@MrDarthvader011 It means their normal sales are no sales. I'm joking because there is still absolutely no reason to buy it unless you are a little kid new to gaming

[diggidy10]

Why does the Double Dragon game scream "Final Fight Streetwise"?

[Falcovsleon21]

I wish people would shut up about the lack of games for the 3DS already. The original DS was the same fucking way! Hell, EVERY Nintendo portable system after the original Gameboy was the same fucking way! You're surprised by all of this?

[TheStuBBZZ]

i got invited to BF3 trial today! and no Jared you can't!! whahaha :D

[kingdomheartsabc]

hahahaha it looks like a ps1 game!

[kingdomheartsabc]

heyy its the rape master :)

[CyC10n345]

welcome back our dear rape master.

[thedavidmango]

jaarrrrredd

[theclawism]

Double Dragon looks more like Final with PS1 graphics. :/ Really?

[GearGuilty]

good to have u back Jared!!!!

[NoZeroNoHero]

Double Dragon!

[mosquitoninja45]

Ben is sooooo much better. Hey guy speak with some conviction! Where is your attack?!

[JFBosox33]

Ben is better.... much better!

[DeCoYSpIz]

wow september 11 i got better things to do that day then play a game.

[Harry1871996]

Yeah... A first person shooter killing game beta on September 11th... Sorry USA but I am still going to play it if I get the chance.

[sosoishero]

Ben's news isn't hard enough

[VindozaDM]

Anyone else going to play Battlefield 3 on PC?

[landy1337]

@VindozaDM Me.. i am not buying a console shooter ever again black ops on ps3 sucked.

[Ahmed2006]

Everyone can now get the BF3 Alpha Trial key!

[thedarklordsknigh]

wow a great game destroyed yet again

[KevinSmyth1985]

See Ben, THAT was Hard News...

[Shr00b]

@KevinSmyth1985

Ben was using the Destin formula.

[makon96]

@Shr00b and what was that?

[Shr00b]

@makon96

opening with: "i'm destin and THIS is hard news."

closing with: "i'm destin and THIS is hard news."

yup

[makon96]

@Shr00b yeah i see what ur saying but but theres no yelling "this" or zooming.

[Shr00b]

@makon96

Yeah true, just pointing the this thing that is repeted since i've nothing better to do lol

[makon96]

@Shr00b lol  im thnking is just the way they talk

[NightOfTheLiving8bit]

This Double Dragon diarrhea consuming badness sounds like a HORRIBLE idea.

[xNewAgeWarriorx]

screwattack....hard news....really I'm positive at this point its a porn website.

[supermike12321]

YEA! Jared is back!

[SomeoneYouNew]

So... they start the beta on the 10th anniversary of 9/11? Something doesn't seen right...

[InvaderBrad]

Totally have the ninja turtle reshell vibe. Why can't they learn to just make the old games HD and keep them the same?

[downphoenix]

@InvaderBrad Yep, or just make it a new game instead of a remake if they want to make it in 3D and new moves, etc.

[Voolidin]

3Dasses

[durtysouth85]

offcourse you can have my key!

[bluemidgetguy]

BOOO! Jared is back. Bring back Ben for the quality.

[PakToh]

Closed Alpha?!? - What's next Closed Development?

Slphas aremeant to be the first somewhat running versions, so - that's a bit early imho - beta is okay, but alpha?

Or did someone in marketing smoke some serious stuff? - well...maybe...

[Xidphel]

@PakToh Well, it's not like they're gonna stop ALL development on the game. I mean who does that anymore?

*Pushes Capcom away*

[TigranTheMetz]

@PakToh I don't understand what a SIphas is lol

[adakun13]

He's back bitches!

[MikeDiFool]

Man, most of you will bitch at anything. I for one, welcome this new Double Dragon. Comparisons to TMNT 4 on an aesthetic level aside, the gameplay for this one does not look clunky as that one did. This one actually has, wait for it, a new, enhanced combo system that wasn't even in the original. This was in the making for a long time. If they presented a 3-D remake of Final Fantasy 7 with no new improvement, most of you pencil-necked geeks would be creaming your pants.

[iSdtea]

@MikeDiFool because that would be awesome

[Nick3889]

Yea Jerid is back

[tiaxanderson]

I'm studying to become a game designer/developer and 'For research' is my favourite excuse ^^

[crazytrk9]

Glad to have you back Jared :)

[vitom10]

HE is Back johoe !

[jamho93]

my bro got the invite to alpha test it... but sense we run Linux on our computers he can't be apart of it... he's pretty pissed now... and I couldn't stop laughing at him xD

[Napalmburns]

WOHO Jared is back!

[agentfire102]

3ds failed hahahahahah poor poor nintendo

[demonfox3128]

@agentfire102 trolling failed hahahahahahaha poor poor agentfire XD

[agentfire102]

@demonfox3128 trolling fail x2 hahahahahahhahahhahaha didn't you hear the 3ds has no games and undersold its mark hahaahahahahaha poor poor demonfox

[MallRat666]

@agentfire102

[MallRat666]

@agentfire102 would you be offened if i told u tha

t you sound like a really big douchebag,I'm just sayin'

[agentfire102]

@MallRat777 no mostly because i have skin and teeth and every thing else that makes me human pathetic nintendo fanboy

[MallRat666]

@agentfire102 Hey,hey,hey I hate Nintendo too,trust me...I owned one,it was hell

[agentfire102]

@MallRat666 ok then

[jasamdomo]

@agentfire102

Because selling 90000 units weekly worldwide is a failure.

Idiot.

[agentfire102]

@jasamdomo especialy when it was supposed to sell 4.000.000 million of these things but only sold

3.200.000 hahahahah stupid nintendo fanboy

[Crashfanforever]

@agentfire102 3.600.000

[agentfire102]

@Crashfanforever ok then......wait i pressed 2 didn't i shit

[jasamdomo]

@agentfire102

it was supposed to reach 4 mil in its first month.

It actually surpassed 4 mil. since then you fucking retard.

[agentfire102]

@jasamdomoso where are the AMAZING generation defining games that nintendo promised o wait most of them are ports and a eshop that took a month to come out and tell me why are you getting so angry you fanboys need to chill

[jasamdomo]

@agentfire102

They're coming this fall.

Troll harder faggot.

[agentfire102]

@jasamdomo like do you care to name some and instead of being mad at a guy over the internet and please try to refute some of these claims im making like why are there so many damn porsts on the 3ds

[Crashfanforever]

@agentfire102 Yeah I kinda agree that there should be diffrent comments even though I like the 3d I'm okay if someone like you dose not like it because everyone has opinions. But when it comes to games there are actually some coming from nintendo alone not including 3rd party devolpers there games such as mario kart, luigis mansion 2, Kid icrus uprising, starfox 64, super mario, animal crossing, pokemon(not the 3d poxedex),paper mario, heros of ruin,metal gear solid, tetrid, or even a new link.

[agentfire102]

@Crashfanforever why are you the only person who could tell me what is coming out for the 3ds

[agentfire102]

@Crashfanforever yea those games are pretty good but still i want something other then almost all ports but some are sequels 

[Crashfanforever]

@agentfire102 I don't know why no one else told you what was coming out but these games are just to help 3ds sales for people who love some of the old n64 games with better inhancments. I think once 3ds sales pick up we will see better and more awsome games that are not just from nintendo but tons of gaming companys.

[agentfire102]

@Crashfanforever well i have the n64 so i don't need any of these games

[Crashfanforever]

@agentfire102 Yeah but there are games that are not remakes and for the 3rd time there will be 3rd party devolpers coming to the 3ds creating even better games.

[agentfire102]

@Crashfanforever i know that you mentioned n64 and i got my mind on n64

[Crashfanforever]

@agentfire102 Well the n64 is nice but that's not the only thing 3ds will be about when it comes to games and technology.

[bluemew22]

@Crashfanforever Um... the original DS was N64-level. 3DS is Gamecube-level

[Crashfanforever]

@bluemew22 Well okay that just shows the 3ds has impresive graphics and listen I like sony but hate how sony fanboys are always complaining or not even giving new nintendo systems a chance.

[bluemew22]

@Crashfanforever I do to, but ever since I was reached by the ponies, I have loved and tolerated it. HIEL CELESTIA! HIEL LUNA!

[ClassicRockerSr101]

@Crashfanforever BS, the only good 3DS game i've seen NOT from nintendo that's coming out is Sonic Generations.

[CathalOHara]

@ClassicRockerSr101 Resident Evil Revelations and Metal Gear Solid 3D...

[ClassicRockerSr101]

@CathalOHara MGS3D Got Pushed Back to Next Year.

[ClassicRockerSr101]

@agentfire102 lol, same.

[BWGgy]

That's why I got a blue 3DS :p

[snake2006]

New DD looks like utter crap, and I am a big Double Dragon fan since the 1980's arcade.

DD was what got me interested in Martial Arts in the first place, at the tender young age of 4 (the first game was brand new at the time)

[robbthy]

september 11th, you assholes. why not now?

[richardcasellas]

'Where are all the goddamned games!?'

Jared is so arch, great presentation and humor - brilliant

[WigglyMalmsteam]

The new Double Dragon looks generic and uninspired. I'd rather play Dynamite Cop.

[MegaNight]

For research.... You monster!

[MARIOMAC82]

Thank god jareds back also yhe 3d is not dumb its actually really cool and as for the games ocarina of time nuff said

[Furral]

@MARIOMAC82 Bullshit. 1 game doesn't justify a whole console.

[snake2006]

@MARIOMAC82

Even Zelda doesn't make the 3D look good.

Sorry but I have had extensive plays with the machine and quite frankly I am unimpressed by it.



[DontEatWhales]

I too need it for research.

[FuckDragonQuest]

Finally a new (kinda)Double Dragon game

[EriolBraveheart]

welcome backJared, you were missed :D

[lediadruid]

He is back!

[TheShonenJumper]

What happened to Bimmy???

LITLE JIMMY!
