Final Fantasy XII: Revenant Wings Hints/Cheats

Airship Unlockables
After chapter 4, you can unlock various objects to decorate your airship with. This makes your airship look better, and adds, not to the game completion score, but to your completion score.
NOTE:
In order to obtain and view the Supreme Crest, complete every single side mission before starting the Final Chapter (you should be on 97%).
After completing the first two levels in the Final Chapter, you should have 100% complete.
Create a new save file and then die during the boss fight. It will ask if you want to try again. Say no.
Go back to the airship and voila, you can apply the Supreme Crest to the airship! And then you have one save file for free exploring and one right before the boss battle!

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare Cheats
Cheat: Cheat List
Cheats are unlocked not by inserting passwords, but by acquiring the thirty Intel Pieces strewn throughout the game. The more of them you collect, the more cheats you can access. On the left are the number of Intel Pieces collected, and on the right are the cheats that are unlocked, with an explanation of what each does.
- 2 - "CoD Noir" Play the game in black and white.
- 4 - "Photo-Negative" Game colors become inverted.
- 6 - "Super Contrast" Game's contrast increases.
- 8 - "Ragtime Warfare" The game feels like an old silent movie.
- 10 - "Cluster Bombs" One frag grenade thrown equals five in explosion.
- 15 - "A Bad Year" Enemies explode into tires when shot.
- 20 - "Slow-Mo Ability" Game plays at 40% normal speed.

To unlock Arcade Mode, beat the game once through on any difficulty level. Arcade Mode itself is split into two options - Full Challenge or Level Challenge - that add extra replayability to the game.
To unlock Prestige Mode, which is a multiplayer-only mode, you must reach experience level fifty-five. Instead of capping out at level fifty-five, which is the highest level, Prestige Mode allows you to start again from level one. This can be done a total of ten times, giving you ten different icons in in-game lobbies to show your extreme achievement.
To play an all-new mission, which is an extra mission after the main quest is completed, beat the game and view the ending credits thereafter. After they've run their course, you will then be given the opportunity to play one last single player mission before all is said and done.

One Piece: Unlimited Adventures
The Game was just released yesterday in my time GMT+8 so its still very fresh. Here's some videos of the game hope you enjoy it
Super Mario Galaxy Cheats
Unlockable: 121st Star
There's actually 121 Stars in the game, not 120. To get it, you must first have all 120 Stars. This unlocks Luigi. Beat the entire game with Luigi, defeating Bowser at the end. After this, a new galaxy will be unlocked. Finish this final galaxy to get the 121st Star.
Submitted by Molly Metroid
Unlockable: Luigi
Here's how to get Luigi. First, get all 120 Stars in the game. Then, return to Rosalina (on the Comet Observatory) and request to fight Bowser one last time. Defeat him and let the credits roll. Thereafter, a message will appear telling you Luigi is a playable character.
Submitted by Stewie343
Unlockable: Death Count
The Grand Finale Galaxy, which is the secret galaxy that can be unlocked after 120 Stars are gathered with both Mario and Luigi, holds another secret. Once the final Star is acquired with both characters in this galaxy, you will be able to see your death count on your save file. This will allow you to see how many times you died while playing the game with both Mario and Luigi.
Submitted by ScottMartinHall
Unlockable: Additional Demo Stages
If you're playing a demo version of the game at a kiosk, try holding down the 1 and 2 buttons as you press A and B to start the game. This will unlock additional stages for you to play through.
Submitted by liam--9
Hint: Second Player
If you have a second Wii controller, you can have a friend play along with you. While there won't be a second player on-screen, you will have a second cursor to use. This means that Coins, Star Bits, and the like can be collected by the second player. There's also some functionality in controlling Mario's jumps.
Submitted by Andre Segers
Hint: Extra Lives
Because you start each game with only four lives (after shutting the game off and turning it back on), you might be in need of some extra lives upon rebooting the game. You can usually get five right off the bat from Toad (he'll run around with a letter above his head, symbolizing a letter from either Luigi, or more likely Peach). There are four more strewn around the Observatory that you can acquire, however:
1.) On the moving green platform below the core.
2.) Under the stairs leading to the kitchen.
3.) Right at the top of the observatory. (Once the Red Star is unlocked)
4.) Underneath the entrance to the gateway to the stars. (Once the Red Star is unlocked)
5.) Next to the StarShroom (in a crate)

Submitted by dark zephyr
Hint: Enemy Sacrifice
This may be an obvious hint, but it's one worth stating nonetheless. When you fight most enemies, you can control what comes from their dead bodies when defeated (a sort of "sacrifice"). By jumping on an enemy, which is usually the more difficult way to kill most foes, a Coin will appear. Spin-killing or using other methods will usually result in a few Star Bits.
Submitted by Pooba Jones
Hint: Infinite 1-Ups
If you grab any 1-Up Mushroom at the Comet Observatory, you can then head into any dome, back out, and arrive back at the Comet Observatory without having played any stage. This will make the 1-Up Mushroom you acquired reappear.
There's actually 121 Stars in the game, not 120. To get it, you must first have all 120 Stars. This unlocks Luigi. Beat the entire game with Luigi, defeating Bowser at the end. After this, a new galaxy will be unlocked. Finish this final galaxy to get the 121st Star.

Assassin's Creed for DS Accidentally Revealed
Apparently someone leaked some info about the making of an Assasins Creed for the Nintendo DS. It already has a thought out storyline, and may have the same concept of gameplay as the old Prince Of Persia. What are your opinions on this?
"The folks at Go Nintendo have unearthed the first details on the confirmed-but-not-yet-revealed Nintendo DS version of Ubisoft's Assassin's Creed. Rather than simply downgrade the highly ambitious console and PC versions, the publisher appears to have given the game it's own storyline set before the events of Assassin's Creed and implemented a much more classic Prince of Persia gameplay setup. Titled Assassin's Creed: Altair's Chronicles, the game's touch screen will apparently be used to interrogate suspects and pickpocket those around you, while the top screen features a fully 3D environment for you to explore. Other than that, though, we don't have much else to go on -- but we'll let you know when we do."

Logitech diNovo Mini
Logitech just announced at CES, the diNovo Mini is a palm sized Bluetooth wireless keyboard and mouse replacement for HTPC owners. It sports a full-size keyboard for thumbing in text, as well as a ClickPad that can be used as both a touch pad for controlling the cursor and a direction button for scrolling through web pages. An array of dedicated Windows Media Center controls make browsing media collections easy. Backlighting for the buttons and an internal rechargeable Li-ion battery cover pretty much all features we'd like to see in such a device.

Can't wait for skype? Fanjita and Noobz release their own treat!
Via QJ:
You have to hand it to Fanjita and Noobz, they just keep coming up with stuff that make us all go nuts. While the Sony PlayStation Portable mainstream crowd is waiting for more announcements from official channels about the upcoming Skype features, Fanjita and Noobz went on ahead with the development of the homebrew alternative.
In the latest post from the Noobz home page, the homebrew devs pointed out the flaws of Sony's Skype-driven system to come. They listed quite a number of disadvantages, and said they decided to make their own phone-calling software for everyone to enjoy.
The new Fanjita and Noobz software is called "Furikup." They say it's derived from "geeky" jargon, so don't worry if it sounds dirty when you first hear or read it. In any case, these are the main features:
* It's free software - in both the beer, and speech senses.
* You can use it anywhere in the world, subject to signing-up to a suitable local SIP-based voice-over-IP provider and being near a usable wifi access point. In many countries, you can find those for free or nearly-free - e.g. with SIPGate, in the UK, you can call to your PSP from any standard phone (landline or cellphone) for just the standard local call cost, and from PSP to another SIP phone (another PSP or a PC) for free.
* It runs on both slim and fat PSPs.
* It uses open standards, for maximum compatibility with other phone systems.
* You can use a Go!Cam (Chotto Shot), Talkman microphone, or SOCOM-style headset for audio input. (And even if you don't have any of those, you can still send audio from a WAV file in a pinch).
"It's still pretty much beta software - the audio quality needs some work (but it is usable), the UI isn't very pretty, and video calls aren't working (yet!)," notes the authors.

Sony, in particular, has been very active in the show, unveiling new features for both the PlayStation 3 and the PlayStation Portable.After announcing both the Skype and GPS functionality, as well as a new USB microphone, representatives from SCEA have now confirmed that the GPS receiver and the add-on camera will be made available in the U.S. before the year ends.

Source QJ:
We know some of you techies and geeks out there guessed this, but official confirmation just rolled in. Sony's rolling out the red carpet for Skype toward the PSP-2000, a.k.a. the PSP Slim & Lite (or Diet), only because the Slim can handle Skype's memory requirements and the PSP-1000 (PSP Phat) cannot. Sony's Nick Sharples stated:
Although PSP-1000 and PSP-2000 are identical in basic functions, there are differences in hardware specifications to some extent and, for that reason, PSP-2000 may differ in features from PSP-1000. We had studied the possibility of supporting Skype with PSP-1000 but had to give it up because of the smaller size of main memory on PSP-1000 series.
The real difference here isn't so much as with weight as it is with memory. In fact, the PSP Slim & Lite packs double the RAM in megabytes (or mebibytes for the crusading computer geek) than the PSP Phat. And for the developers, 64 MB of RAM is probably much easier to work with for porting a voice communication software for use over WiFi than 32 MB of RAM. More on this as they come in.

16GB Memory Stick PRO Duo
Like what some people anticipated, Sony has announced the 16GB Memory Stick PRO Duo with a US$ 300 price tag. Come March, it'll be available for all your storage needs. Yep, that means more space for Homebrew and other media on the Sony PlayStation Portable.Back in February 2007, it was said that this version of the Memory Stick will be available this year. Considering how early the 16GB model will hit stores, it probably won't be too much of a dream to see 32GB Pro Duo sticks which are scheduled for 2009.Without a doubt, owners of VAIO, Walkman, Cyber-shot, and other Sony products will also be delighted to have larger storage space. For us pspslimhomebrew folks? That means more homebrew, of course!

Ragnarok Online 2
Ragnarok Online 2 improves on many of the original's features as well as adding quite a few of its own. Below are notable new features or changes that will be seen in RO2. Larger features are described in detail. Not all game features have been announced yet.
Full 3D graphics, while retaining the "original anime style" of Ragnarok Online.
Real Emotion Expression, allowing player avatars to show and express realistic emotions. This will replace the "bubble emotes" from the original.
Anti-Theft Mob System, which gives benefits to a victim of kill-stealing instead of penalizing the offender.
Safe Trade System, which enables two ways of trade. The first option requires an item from both parties (or Zeny) and the second option allows the trade of an item or amount of Zeny without having to receive something in return.
Killing one strong creature has been redesigned to be far more effective than killing multiple weaker enemies. Grouping has also been made far more beneficial to those in the group.
Loot collection has been changed to a "loot the body" system. Instead of making dropped items fall onto the ground, the player must select the fallen enemy's corpse and retrieve the items.
Jumping and swimming have been implemented.
There will be a day and night cycle.
Specialty Job system
This System allows a character to use skills from other classes. Special abilities can be gained by leveling a character's job class, giving them the ability to create useful and original class combinations, such as battle mages and wares-selling thieves

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess Hints
Bomb Bag Upgrades
There are 3 bomb bags to obtain and 1 capacity upgrade that affects all 3 bags.
| Bomb Bag 1 | Purchace from Barnes Bomb Shop in Kakariko after 2nd temple. |
| Bomb Bag 2 | Free the goron from the giant lava rock located underwater in zoras domain. |
| Bomb Bag 3 | Destroy the rock barriers for the River Canoe mini-game owner. |
| Bomb Bag Capacity Upgrade (Double) | Score 25 points or more on the River Canoe Mini-Game. |
Bottle: Fishing Hole
Go to the fishing hole, and find the sign that says: No Littering! You can get a bottle if you fish on the left side of the bridge that is near that sign. Its darker water than normal.
Fairies
After locating the Gerudo Mesa and Cave of Ordeals in the Gerudo desert, you are able to unlock fairies and later Great Fairies at each spring around Hyrule. Smaller fairies can be bottled, restore 8 hearts when used, or when you run out of hearts. Great Fairies will give you a bottle full of Great Fairy Tears, which heal you full and temporarily boost your attack, provided you have an empty bottle and no Tears in your inventory already.
Both have an infinite supply once unlocked.
| Fairies in the Eldin Spring | Complete 30 rooms in the Cave of Ordeals |
| Fairies in the Faron Spring | Complete 20 rooms in the Cave of Ordeals |
| Fairies in the Lanayru Spring | Complete 40 rooms in the Cave of Ordeals |
| Fairies in the Ordon Spring | Complete 10 rooms in the Cave of Ordeals |
| Great Fairies in all springs | Complete 50 rooms in the Cave of Ordeals |
Frog Fishing Lure
To unlock the Frog Fishing Lure for the Fishing Hole, you must beat all eight levels of Roal Goal, a game found in the owner's establishment. To play it, simply look at it in first person using the C button.
The game requires 5 rupees a play and you win 10 rupees for each round, and the frog lure for the eighth. (If you run short before you manage to get the lure, mowing the tall grass just outside (still in the fishing hole area) offers around 60 rupees.)
Lure description: The must-have lure for bass.
Unlock Special-Edition Rollgoal
If you visit the Fishing Hole in Upper Zora's River, there's a mini game Hena will let you play for 5 Rupees called Rollgoal. If you make it past 1-8, you'll be rewarded with the Frog Lure. However, if you keep going and beat the entire thing, up to and including 8-8, you'll be able to play the special-edition version of Rollgoal. You can choose any level, the cost is free, the time limit is raised to 4:00:00, and you cannot win any Rupees. Also, as an added bonus, once you beat 8-8, Hena will fill your wallet completely!
Wallet Upgrades
To upgrade your wallet size to carry more rupees, you need to catch Golden bugs for Agatha in Hyrule Castle Town.
| Big Wallet | Give Agatha 1 Golden Bug |
| Giant Wallet | Give Agatha all 24 Golden Bugs |
Control a Cucco!
Unlike other Zelda games (where you got attacked if you hit the Cuccos), in Twilight Princess if you hit a Cucco about 8 times, you'll be able to control it for a short period of time.
Distract the final boss's final form with the fishing pole
The true final boss of this game can be distraced by the fishing rod. Just cast it out while Z-Targeting him and his head will turn to look at the lure. Quickly put away the fishing pole and get in a few quick attacks.

Unlockable Fishing Spots
Once the Fishing mini-game began, you can only fish in the Lower Reaches fishing spot. However, you can unlock more fishing spots when get to certain requirements.
| Master Den | Fish up Cactoid Crest un the Secret Reaches |
| Middle Reaches | Get 5 perfect fishing in the Lower Reaches |
| Secret Reaches | Fish up Cactoid Bond in the Upper Reaches with Matamune |
| Taikou Chest (treasure) | Get 9 perfect fishing in the Master Den |
| Upper Reaches | Get 5 perfect fishing in the Middle Reaches |
Zodiac Spear
The most powerful weapon in the game has a trick to it that those who have to open EVERY treasure chest would miss out on. There are 4 places with treasure chests that must NOT be opened in order for the Zodiac Spear to appear:
1) Treasure chest in Lowtown, outside of Old Dalan's place
2) When sneaking into the palace (Before getting the Goddess Tear), there are several chests in the Cellar. Do not open the two chests in the southeast corner.
3) All treasure chests in the Confiscatory (the place where you get your weapons and armor back after being captured)
4) In the Phon Coast, later in the game, there is an island with 16 chests all near each other. The 4th chest that must NOT be opened is among these, so it is best to leave them all alone. They only contain Gil anyway.
If you've left all these treasures be, you'll find the Zodiac Spear in the Necrohol of Nabudis. It sports a whopping +150 attack and, like all spears, +8 Evasion.
