Happy Flavor.
Well, Monday GOOD! Really good. New Snowflake update with Fresh from the Ice Box: Next and Usual Suspects. Yippee! That's not all, you also get a Rumors page update! WOW! Oh, and.. tommorrow.. big REVIEWS update! YEAH! And for the Cherry on Top... Viral Speak.. tommorrow.. (Sorry, I wasn't around to finish it up today.. but it be good tommorrow!) -PAW-

Ice Blue: Whoo... yippity dippity doo!  I'm so excited... I'm jumping in my shorts... JOY...
Foy: Foy! (Shut up...)
Ice Blue: Okay... I'll stop now.
Philip cheers: Oh, Area DMG tommorrow as well. We may update late sometimes.. but we update. ^_^
 
 

New Pokemon names.. at ign.. pocket... umm.. no linky because I lazy! Clicky IGN logo and find! They silly names!

Cop-out article!
Space World started and I was too busy.. umm.. looking at the pictures to do anything.. expect hefty editorials and some interesting stuff soon. Game Boy Advanced good! Cube GOOD! I mean.. I should have known.. in our Library.. is a Snippet interview with Nintendo/Rare at E3 2000. The Rare guys were not impressed at all by MGS 2.. now we know why... YEAH! LOOKY HERE! -PAW-

Music.
The album I'm referencing is available on Napster as we speak and isn't worth the time or effort to download. As it could be made with Acid DJ or Mix Master *really* easily. I'm also doing one article for that with several parts. So I can keep the reference.

1. Oh, boy! Guess what! The banner got banned! The PS2 one was too racy for the ad agency that ign uses. IGN was going to let me use it. Their ad agency said. "Too racy! It has the word.. BUTT in it.". I'm not mad, I commend IGN for at submitting it, and I commend the ad agency for making me laugh for a few seconds. Anyways, if you voted for the banner, why not download the GIF file, and use it on your own website as a link to dmgice. The Punch Lieberman one is a go! YEAH! I'm sending third place in now. ^_^
 

2. You like Area DMG? Snap to it! Bwa ha ha!
 

3. Reviews! Three of them! Two by Philip! One by reader Sebulba113! Go read! Philip takes on Warlocked AND Bomberman Max Red Challenger/Blue Champion!

4. Hey! Songpro sounds pretty cool! Read this PR... then decide what you think.

5. Extra Crispy, yummy, yummy, yum! Viral Speak. -PAW-

Akemi: I'll take a drumstick.
Ice Blue: I sense some fake enthusiasm in that news article.

Due to circumstances beyond my control, the update for Friday will not be on Friday. We will update Saturday. So, all Friday people be sad; but be happy we will update on a Saturday for you!

Time to awake.
No more drooling at the GBA; -while drooling is what we all did- it can ruin your keyboard and it won't impress the ladies (Or Guys). I've decided to pretend that I DON'T have to wait until next year to play this. *sighs* Looks good, don't it. Although.. I now need to update my Rumors page. Wario Land 4 came true days after I put the rumor up, as did Fire Emblem. F-Zero is on it's way. That Castlevania game looks to be too sweet for it's own good. And the battle sequences in Golden Sun? Peace, be still my heart. Oh, rapturous joy! To quote Squishy, the Red Beanie Octopi: "HAPPY!". Oh, for those wondering. I don't think the Cube looks ugly at all. It's tiny, has a carrying handle, and comes in many colors! I just now need to decide between Silver or Blue. Nintendo has gotten it right. Oh, for those who love Sony with a diehard love. Remember that Sony is also involved in the lawsuit to shut down Napster. Despite facing similar litigation years ago for Audio Cassettes. Talk about hypocritical. -PAW-

Adrock: What about the cute little pink Cube controller?
Jazz notes that for the price of one PS2, you can get both a Cube AND a real DVD player... What's your excuse now?
Philip: Oh, Yak had some stuff to say too; but when I got Jazzman's copy of the file.. it accidentally erased over his comments. But it was something about how Nintendo tried to shut down Songboy.. which is actually not true.. Nintendo didn't want them to call it: "Song BOY".. apparently.. Nintendo had something about that, so it's the much better "SongPro" now and I want one.
Ice Blue laughs at Jazzboy.
 

Not Fade Away.
It's NOT Team Redline 6! It's a spin-off deal. "Team Redline Files". Think short and unusual stories based on the main idea of the Team Redline scenario.  The idea of Team Redline is "What if Pokemon were real, in today's world?" And the idea is to not make it light and cute. But to portray pokemon as what they are. Animals, pure and simple. This story is a bit odd, if not slightly disturbed. Enjoy! It's in the Pokedex! -PAW-

Adrock: Yeah really. I see all these petitions for animal rights, where's my pokémon rights? Do they have any?
Philip: Nope. Unless it's a Foy, Foyusa, or Fay. They gots rights!
Ice Blue: I don't have rights... and Foy does... grrr...
 

Dream again.
Here you go! Viral Speak. -PAW-
Sock Monkey sits there silently thinking Sock Monkey thoughts!
Philip touches the Sock Monkey.
Ice Blue smacks Philip's hand.
Ice Blue: NO TOUCHING THE SOCK MONKEY!

The presence of Pokemon in the Cube demo proves.. that the franchise won't die. It'll be like Mario. Is Mario dead? Nope. Pokemon isn't your Nsync or Britney Spears fad thing. It's not tamagotchi, or Furby. It's a Nintendo franchise and it''l stay around.

Saturday!
Wow. A Saturday update. Who'd a thunk? Anyways, Snowflake! Viral Speak.. and a special AREA DMG! We updated the MP3 section! Good stuff! Lots of it. Warlocked, Mario Golf, Super Mario Land, Metal Gear Solid. Is that enough for you? How about.. some Contra?!! -PAW-

Adrock: Music makes the world go round.
Philip: Sixth Circle MP3 is no more.. it'll be called: "MP3" from now on and is part of Area DMG. I'm also working on making new MP3s. I might even put an NGPC, Game Gear, or Lynx MP3 in there.. if I feel like it. It's ALL good.
Akemi: No, that's not enough for me.. I need more, damn it!
Ice Blue: Hoy Palloy... first time we updated on a Saturday when we said we would... usually we just gratuitously lie to you.  Sorry, guys...

Put us in your Palm.
Palm Handspring that is! If you remember from Viral Speak.. here's what DMG Ice looks like on a Palm OS Handspring! Click on the appropriate moving object. -PAW-

Japanese-Speaking Akemi: Kakkoii ne...?
Philip:Totemo kakkoii.
Infinity_Yak: Densetsu Sushi
 

Chuuchuunaku!
Reviews ga arimasen ka? Goshinpainaku!! Sore wa atarashii reviews desu yo! -PAW-

Akemi:  WAI!! Piripu-Sama no nihongo wa ii desu yo!! 
Philip: Watashi no kiisu de hoshimasu.
Infinity_Yak: Tatsumakisenpukyaku
 

Snowflaked...
Snowflake update! One more time! -PAW-

Akemi:  Yuki no hakuhen wa omoshiroi desu ne!!
Philip sits there silently thinking Philip thoughts.
Infinity_Yak sits there thinking Yak-like thoughts.

Viral Spoken.
So be it! -PAW-

Akemi:  Itadakimasu!  Tabemashoo desu ka?
Sock Monkey sits there silently thinking Sock Monkey thoughts and shareing some Sock Monkey Tea with Philip, who is sitting there silently thinking Philip thoughts.
Infinity_Yak: uh-huh.

Will there be a GBA Pokemon game? Probably; wouldn't it be cool, if someone made a Pokemon Real Time Strategy game? I mean.. who could resist sending a herd of rampaging Onixs against a lonely enemy Pikachu? And it could be only Pokemon you caught in Gold/Silver/Cyrstal/Yellow/Blue/Red/Etc. I mean, I could put Sephiroth on Point, select his moves to use, and then send him into the field with Nine, Mr. Beanie, Frostbite; and fifty mean Ratatas! I could picture the Ratatas surrounding the enemy main gym and.. umm.. that would be fun. Use my Drowzee brigade to send the enemy to lullaby land; then sneak a ton of invisible Gengars into the enemy gym. Oh, I could see poor Gym Leader Misty wakeing up from the Drowzee induced sleep to be surrounded by.. dozens of Caterpies! Go my minions!

Fall of Grace
Sony's little dragon.. Spyro is coming to Game Boy Advanced. I think that the game will most likely be like Spyro's Play Station games. Read: Stupid. And that's all you really need to know about it. -PAW-

Jazz: Maybe they should make it a Mario Kart clone, there won't be many of those...
Philip: Or an RPG where you catch things. That's plenty original.
 

Witness
Philip went through the GB Mafia page today.. and added Game Boy Data. It's a GBA ONLY site. We welcome it into the fold. -PAW-

Jazz: We're the Godfather of Gameboy; and we'd talk in raspy voices if this weren't text.
Philip: With a Chantai. Oops.. wrong line.
 

Do what you have to do.
I got Jet Force Gemini and Ridge Racer 64 for $17 apiece today. Ridge Racer is amazing and I hope we see a GBA version. What does this have to do with the update? Umm.. not much; but I have a few things to say here and they are good. Here goes...

1. I whittled down the Viral Speak until there was very little left and instead of a pitiful Viral Speak; I'm feeding it to be big and strong tomorrow.
2. A new Viral Speak comic will debut in September in The Snowflake!
3. The Oddish is on a small break and will be back in September.
4. Dragon Warrior 1 & 2 come out in September.
5. I like making lists.
6. Reviews update tomorrow. YEAH!
7. I'm going to start doing Friday Updates as "Friday through Sunday"; so I can add stuff as the weekend passes.

That is all. -PAW-

Jazz: We're away right now, please leave an update after the beep.
Philip: We're also not drunk.
 

I'm leaving this up.. because it's cool.

There is no hope.
I have a massive headache, right now. You see, I've been oft for sleep and my my monitor is a backlit TFT screen and.. it's *really* bright. Anyways, in all my disorganization, I debuted a new comic in The Snowflake. No.. not Viral Speakers. ^_^ It's coming this Friday in full force. This is a new one. But the umm.. well.. it's from Josh Nickerson of Ice Box fame and it's umm.. umm.. well.. you just HAVE to see it. It's too funny. Too funny. Oh, I voted a ton of posts off the island. Viral Speak! -PAW-

Ice Blue: ...in other words, Philip is drunk, high, doped up, and demented at the same time.
Philip cheers for being drunk, high, sugared up (Drugs BAD!), and demented at the same time.
 

Go my Army of Mewtwos!!

She's Perfect.... or is she?
Two new reviews tonight. You KNOW you want to read what Philip has to say about Perfect Dark... let's say that it's interesting. Anyways, a new reader review as well. Anyways, I think I'll do a great Viral Speak tommorrow and debut that new comic over the lovely weekend. ^_^ -PAW-

Akemi: All I have to say tonight.. is nobody's perfect... Except Squall Leonheart, Irvine Kinneas, and Laguna Loire.  *drool* Oh, and Philip too!
Philip: Riiiiiiiight! *blushes*
Ice Blue: Excuse me while I toss my cookies.
Ice Blue tosses his cookies.
A Random Blue Virus jumps up and grabs them and hands them out to his buds.
Random Blue Virus: Mmmmm... chocolate chip...
A strange raccoon jumps out of the background and eats the Blue Virus.
 

Go and making me some good fan translatoons of Gold Silver versions! Much adventrue!! Naw.. I think I'll rant a bit instead. Yeah, that's it. I'll umm.. bash something. I know! I'd like to take this moment to bash umm.. J.R. Tolkien! Yeah! J.R. Tolkien. Why couldn't he have killed off the main character in The Hobbit? I mean, seriously, the lizard thingie that goes. "My Precious, precious..." was much more entertaining. If such a thing be that way. I wonder what would have happened if someone went back and killed Orome... how would that affect the Silmarillion? Would elves never exist, and thus no Hobbits would venture to disturb the lizard thingie? Umm.. never mind. Anyways, simmer the Pikachu for a half hour, than mix in various spices and the ortega sauce stuff. Chill then serve.
