We already got the new Gaming Gonads site up on Ning.com. They have a lot more features for us to use and it will make everything easier on me and allow you guys to contribute. We even got a chat room now! This site will be gone in a day or two so make sure to save our new link.
You got the Touch!
Demo is now available to download on the Playstation Network. However there is something that needs to be said before you run to your PS3. The demo is for local one on one play only. Which means if you don't have a friend right next to you that can hop on a controller just wait till the game is released.
Fighting game fans rejoice! Fans of Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 won't have to worry about spending $100 on ebay to snag the game. As many have suspected the TU4AR site was for Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 for Xbox Live and Playstation Network. Sven of Capcom-Unity posted on his blog about the details of the game. It will be using the Dreamcast version code in the game. Online game play using the same network code as Super Street Fighter 2 HD Remix. It will have HD upscaleing and widescreen support. The ability to use custom sound tracks on your system (that's both versions). And if that doesn't get you pumped US PSN owners get a demo this Thursday and next week for Europe. So get ready fighters, the game is back! Demo by Thursday confirmed by John Diamonon of Capcom.

Our good friend over at Final Fantasy Sources is creating his own video podcast and invited me to join in the conversation. We got a link to the video and visit him on his Youtube page and subscribe. He knows his FF games. Enjoy the video.
An article from Kotaku shows the sales figures for the games in the Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest, and Kingdom Hearts. Final Fantasy is of course the king of RPGs with it making over 85 units sold. Then you have Dragon Quest coming in at 47 million units. Of course we have the RPG series that is so cool but your afraid to be made fun of because it looks like a game for kids, Kingdom Hearts at an already whooping 12 million units sold. They maybe tight when it comes to letting people use images or video but they sure can make some pretty kick ass games.

An article posted on 1up.com. They said that they compiled all the things that Final Fantasy XIII director Motomu Toriyama stated would change in the game. Saying that there would be a leveling system, your partners can be issued commands, and will have the final fantasy victory theme at the end of battle, and so on. Toriyama even stated that he expects it to be "the hardest Final Fantasy EVER". Check out the link for more info.
For a while now we have heard rumors and ESRB postings that Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 is heading to Xbox 360 and PS3. But could this be the conformation that we all been looking for? Who knows, but a lot are speculating that the letters in the sites url T.U.4.A.R are the song that you hear when choosing your characters "Take You For A Ride" Well we will have to find out in about 6 days or so. Stay posted and I'll keep you guys informed. Here is the site if you want to check it out for yourself.

UPS man was nice to me today he brought me FFVIIIAC Complete in the mail today and I open it up and show you guys all the goodies inside. Enjoy.
Gaming Gonads 1st video review is online. We take a look at Resident Evil 5. I GWCommander will tell you if its worth your cash. Here is how we review games. We give our personal opinions on it and then we give a opinion for general gamers. So if i don't like something, I may realize that others will love it and visa versa.
first wanted to say I have had a lot of personal things come up so I haven't been working on the site. And i haven't been able to rent Killzone 2 so no review on that and i just got new equipment so I can review SF4 if people still want. I will try to make more of an effort to keep new content on the site. And I want to thank those who had been supporting the site and thank you. Now we got a new video for you, the import preview of Dissidia Final Fantasy. Enjoy and if you have any questions please feel free to ask and post in the forums.
EDIT: Square felt that the video was in violation of their rights and had the video removed. Sorry for those who didn't get to see it
Just added a new section to the site called Everyone's A Critic. This is where you guys can post your opinions on gaming or even review games and let everyone know if its worth their time.

So hows it be gamers? This is your favorite known by none and feared by many friend lilparknlot. I'm one of the samurai shoguns that's involved in the revolution know as Gaming Gonads.
Other than that I'm dedicated gamer down to flex my Halo skills to all who will play, I'm currently living my life as a seven foot tall elf named Kaile in the world of Vana'diel, look me up if your in Bastok on the Carbuncle sever. My game choices in this vast world of so many titles is games such as Mega Man plus the X's, RPG games all FF's especially tactics, Zelda, plus i think that Shenmue is the greatest game series ever for all of you Dreamcast owners. Have you seen any sailors? I also like waking up at the crack of noon to eat a toaster stroodle and watch good healthy friendly family shows like Trailer Park Boys. Well that's all for me if you didn't feel that Iwas intuitive enough, check with my slightly smarter friend GWCommander. scroll down or look around because I'm sure he will be more insightful to what were all about.

So if you stumbled upon this site you could be asking. WTF is a gaming gonad? Who is this GWCommander and is he as cool as his name is? And do I really want to know what a gaming gonad is? Well this site is about gaming and the people who play. Me and my crew will be creating post, videos, and even podcast! So you maybe thinking why go to your site where there are so many others? Well can't answer that yet, were new to this kinda thing but we want you to know that we want this site to be very community oriented, which means that we want to hear about what you think about the content and what kind of stuff you want to see. Sure were going to post what we want but we cant be great without an audience. I will try to see if we can get a podcast set up here in a few days and when we do I'll make sure to let you guys know. We will be doing reviews and special segments which will soon be announced and even some stuff for people who play Yu-Gi-Oh card game. Yep I said Yu-Gi-Oh. Mainly about video games but we try to throw other stuff in as well.
Now about me. I love action, RPG, and fighting games. I'm playing Final Fantasy XI right now. Well not at this point I'm at work. I'm looking forward to RE5 and Street Fighter 4 coming out this year and Final fantasy XIII when ever it comes out. I'm an anime nerd and favorite shows are Burn Notice and 24. I got all 3 systems and I am a gaming nerd and proud of it. My favorite game of all time is Final Fantasy VII. That game made my cry... why you kill Aries you bastard!!!. ummm... oh sorry got a bit emotional there. If there is anything else you want to know ask and post your comments.
