Hudson wheel and tire dilemma
It's time for new tires on the '52 Sedan. I've pretty much made up my mind about getting a new set from Hudson Dave, 215-75R/15, wide whites. Question I am pondering is that amongst my spare wheels, which are going to get powder-coated red, by the way, I have two convertible wheels (5-1/2"), which I thought might be beneficial to put on the front of the car. Any thoughts on this?
What's the point? I'd leave it as is. Your tire source choice is a good one. I've been running Diamondbacks from Dave on both my Hudsons ('47 and '51), and love 'em.
Hi Russell, I'm curious, so school me..what's the difference in wheels between a standard sedan and a convertible?
Hey, Dan! Convertible steel wheels for the step-downs were 5-1/2" wide. My thought was that the radials might like being on the slightly wider rim, especially on the front. Just a passing thought, really.
Russel, a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all from Margaret & Walt Mordenti. Good choose on the tires and SIZE. On the sedan stick with the 5 inch wheels. Still am busy as ever in my car garage, and Saturday and Sundays at Jeff's garage. W&M
I think that the smaller rims will make that truck sit a little better and the radials will certainly make it ride better. I love the Hudson trucks, but man, are they stiff-riding vehicles! If you've got a guy locally (or yourself), powder-coating is the way to go, as you don't normally have to blast them yourself. My guy I use blasts everything, so it's just a matter of droppin'-'em-of-and-pickin'-'em-up kind of deal, which is real convenient. I have some customers that I've done that for, as well.
I've got extras, but I don't think I want to get rid of any of them, it's always good to have an extra set or two around. I kind of wish I had a tire rack with a Hudson sign on top of it to store them in. Future project, I suppose. -
so 1/2" width difference - what was the point of that?
I wonder if Alex has a technical bulleteins that explain why?
Thinking of no-power steering and bias-ply tires of old..1/2" probably wouldn't make a hole lot of difference.
With a radial tire and no power steering you might feel a bit more resistance in a turn perhaps...maybe it was bump-steer issues with the body modifications for a convertible...so they ran a wider rim? -
7:60 X 15 versus 7:10 X 15 and 1/2" width on rims was Hudson's way of compensating for the extra weight of the email@example.com
Wider rim on convertible was due to the higher weight. Bump steer is a suspension & steering geometry issue. The issue with a convertible would be lesser torsional rigidity of the body/ chassis, which was usually overcome by reinforcing the frame or unibody, which was done on the Stepdown to the tune of some 200+ pounds of additional weight over a sedan or coupe.
Thanx Ken. I don't have any bulletins or other info about the subject - what you say does make sense.
Alex Burr
Memphis, TN -
... And it still wasn't enough reinforcement. My 49 has never had any rust or collision repairs and watching the gap at the door jamb while raising it on a four point lift is enlightening! The car bends enough to change the gap by 1/8" at the top of the doors. Yes torsional rigidity suffers too. Just driving through a driveway "dip"at an angle can actually be felt in the seat of the pants!
Right, the relatively thin gauge steel box longerons can stretch. I think in order for them to be stiff enough to prevent the aforementioned door gap changes, they would have to be at least doubled in thickness, like to about 1/8 to 3/16" thick, and another 100+ pounds of weight. Makes sense that you feel the torsional "twisting" in the seat of your pants, as all the twisting occurs between the front door pillars and the rear quarters. Can you hear anything too? I have heard that sometimes the spot welds break and make a squeaking sound when the two sheets of metal move over each other when flexing.
Since we are talking about wheels and tires....Found these guys while looking around the other day. http://www.rallyamerica.com/Original_Centered_Wheels.html
They will cut out your wheel centers and mount them in a modern wheel. Doesn't look all that pricey either. Interesting to me anyway. -
I am new to this sight.I am in the process of finishing a 47 p.u I have wire wheels on the trock that look like 30s ford.I dont believe they were stock issue.Any help would be appreciated.Thans John
SuperDave-I owned three Hudson convertibles.A sure way to get you to appreciate the
sedans.A world of difference in the ride , handling, and noise level -
Syddthekidd, that's pretty cool. that is a pretty good price too if you wanted to run your stock caps. You can get a wider wheel.
Anyone know the widest wheel that can go on the back of a stepdown and still come off the car? I hate how far inboard the wheels set when looking at it from the rear of the car. -
In reality its how far OUT the front ones sit . This was one of the reasons its such a stable car
RogerRetired Tech. -
I have used Rally America before and got great service. My 49 came to me with Hudson centers
redone with 15x6 hoops. No problem with the 6" rim and 235/75R15 in the front and no problem rubbing in the back though getting the wheel/tire in and out of the wheelwell is about
as tight as it gets and I normally deflate the tire to ease this.
The limiting factor for clearance back there is the shock absorbers useusaly. You can unbolt the botom of rear shock and the rear end will drop down farther. This allows more clearance to get a tire over the brake drum and past the body side rail. This will present a problem if you need to change a tire out on the road however ,not as easy as in the shop,

dan, having driven the next heaviest bodied car, a Hollywood, for many years with the narrow tires and upgrading to the 7.60s, I can attest that the 1/2" makes a whole world of difference in ride amd handling. for the few month's of 48 convertible production, like the other body styles, 7.60 and 5 1/2" was an option on the convertibles. By the time the 49's were built the factory realized the need to make them standard. Its not that the 48's were automatically given the option as my 48 was shipped with the 5" wheels. -

John, Hudson offered wire wheels for some years in the 30's and again in 54 but not 47. correct for your 47 would be a 16" typical steel wheel with small canter caps. -
That's what I thought. I know it's only a 1/2", and I tend to be too OCD with a lot of things, I just figured that slightly more tire on the road would only be a good thing.
Unfortunately, I only have the two 5-1/2" wheels. Do you happen to have a couple you would part with? -
I am wondering why no one has brought up the issue of split rims and going with the 48/50 Mopar rims?Brownie
Those will fit, but I believe the clips for the hubcaps would have to be riveted onto the Chrysler rims. -
Yes on the clips. Or you can buy a set of new Chrysler Kelsey Hayes lookalike spoked rims and put Hudson center caps on them.
Are those Kelsey Hayes lip laced like the originals? -
Sorry, to correct myself, the rims used by Hudson and Chrysler were actually produced by Motor Wheel Co. The new ones as far as I can tell are the short spoked style, not the longer lip laced style.
Yes, they can.
I put 49 new yorker rims on my 52 Hudson. I just powder coated them, installed SBR tires and drove off. That was about ten years ago....Hudson Salt Flats Racer Heber 3.JPG2048 x 1532 - 501KBrownie

An Auto Appraisal For Your Custom Car
Tuesday, May 22nd, 2012When a car owner modifies their vehicle to make it more custom this can be quite an investment depending on the changes that were made. In order to protect the value of the vehicle for the future it is a wise decision to get an auto appraisal done by a professional who will give an accurate description and assessment.
Sometimes a modification includes upgrading the engine as well as the transmission to up the performance level of the vehicle. Other times the changes are related more to the body of the car such as a custom paint job or adding fancy lights, grills or wheel rims. The overall value is increased by making these changes whether they be slight or major because it creates a custom car that is different from the stock variety that comes from the dealership.
Paying to have a professional auto appraisal completed for your custom car ensures that you have on paper what you have had done to your car and how much those things have increased the overall value. If anything were to happen to your vehicle or you went to sell it, this appraisal would be ideal for making sure you got the right amount of money that you deserve.

Personally, I love YHF. But their new one is also really good, and a lot more rocking.
My blog. Check it out.
Well maybe eventually I'll look into it but for now we press on. Next up is Albert King.

Consider Wilco before this album had more in common with this and after they had a bit more stride with this before you make quick paintings of what Wilco is. This is definitely their most down to earth and minimalistic, there is a lot of heartfelt songwriting in Yankee Hotel Foxtrot and to ignore it is just something incorrect to do. Also, not to be crass; but metareviewing when you are tired in the late wheels of the night is a bad decision and you need to stop it now. Wilco is one of the best bands of it's movement, which includes greats like Whiskeytown, The Cardinals, Son Volt, Uncle Tupelo, & The Jayhawks.

I liked it well enough to give them another shot.
And as much I'd like to listen to everything in the daytime it's just not easily doable.

"Stm is cool." -gurl
"STM is supersexyguy" -Jibs
I think the point Gowie is making is it seems odd to pass judgment (particular public judgment) on albums of some repute around these parts (or any album really) without your head not all together.
Ehh we're just trying to enjoy some albums we haven't heard before. If late at night is when we can both do it then it's when it will be done. It shouldn't be taken too seriously. Even if I was fully awake I doubt Wilco would have gone over much better. If all of the brilliance is in the lyrics then it would take a few listens for them to sink in for me.
Also STM hasn't posted Albert King and ZZ Top yet. We did those last night.

[1/22/2013 11:07:02 PM] Justin Preston: These songs are just too short

[1/22/2013 11:10:24 PM] Justin Preston: I just wanna hear a real killer solo that doesn't fade out at the end of the song
[1/22/2013 11:11:02 PM] Justin Preston: Maybe that's why the BB King one was so good. It was live. They couldn't fade out.
[1/22/2013 11:11:13 PM] Blake Smith: yeah maybe
[1/22/2013 11:12:03 PM] Justin Preston: See this solo kicks ass!
[1/22/2013 11:12:05 PM] Blake Smith: damn i wish i had half his skill

[1/22/2013 11:14:49 PM] Justin Preston: Or just a coincidence?
[1/22/2013 11:16:20 PM] Justin Preston: Damn! This one is great too.
[1/22/2013 11:16:37 PM] Blake Smith: nah i don't think they're related
[1/22/2013 11:17:16 PM] Justin Preston: As the Years Go Passing By
[1/22/2013 11:17:34 PM] Blake Smith: One of the "Four Kings of the Blues Guitar" (along with B.B. King, Earl King and Freddie King),
[1/22/2013 11:17:40 PM] Blake Smith: why are they all named king?
[1/22/2013 11:18:04 PM] Justin Preston: Yup I just read that.
[1/22/2013 11:18:29 PM] Justin Preston: It says his real name is Albert Nelson
[1/22/2013 11:18:37 PM] Blake Smith: yeah i saw that but still

[1/22/2013 11:26:57 PM] Justin Preston: Top 3
[1/22/2013 11:27:42 PM] Justin Preston: Laundromat Blues, As The Years Go Passing By, Born Under A Bad Sign
[1/22/2013 11:27:48 PM] Blake Smith: Personal Manager, Born Under a Bad Sign, Down Don't Bother Me
[1/22/2013 11:28:02 PM] Blake Smith: Surprised you didn't pick personal manager honestly
[1/22/2013 11:28:37 PM] Justin Preston: The album was good but the songs were a bit short and every single one of them faded out.
[1/22/2013 11:28:55 PM] Justin Preston: Gonna say 7/10
[1/22/2013 11:29:11 PM] Blake Smith: well i guess i'd give it like a 6/10

[1/22/2013 11:44:01 PM] Justin Preston: Master of Sparks
[1/22/2013 11:44:21 PM] Blake Smith: It tells the (apparently true, according to an interview in Sound magazine c.1976 with guitarist Billy Gibbons) story of a bunch of rednecks who weld together a round steel cage, tie it to the back of their truck, and encourage the hapless narrator to take a ride inside it.
[1/22/2013 11:44:54 PM] Blake Smith: sounds fun
[1/22/2013 11:45:27 PM] Justin Preston: Sounds like something Witt would do
[1/22/2013 11:45:40 PM] Blake Smith: haha he's from the south...
[1/22/2013 11:46:54 PM] Blake Smith: i was thinking how weird it would be to meet some of the people

[1/22/2013 11:47:45 PM] Justin Preston: Hot, Blue and Righteous
[1/22/2013 11:48:10 PM] Justin Preston: Yeah ever since Aly made that thread I've been thinking of that

[1/22/2013 11:48:57 PM] Blake Smith: i guess maybe compared to you
[1/22/2013 11:50:04 PM] Justin Preston: Well I know Minnesota has an accent and it's close to Michigan.
[1/22/2013 11:50:05 PM] Blake Smith: slow song here

[1/22/2013 11:51:59 PM] Justin Preston: I'm sure you'll notice how I pronounce "walk" as "wawk"
[1/22/2013 11:52:22 PM] Justin Preston: That's a New Jersey thing
[1/22/2013 11:52:31 PM] Blake Smith: wakka wakka

Raising Arizona [VHS]
Nicolas Cage
Holly Hunter
20th Century Fox, 1987
Blood Simple made it clear that the cinematically precocious Coen brothers (writer-director Joel and writer-producer Ethan) were gifted filmmakers to watch out for. But it was the outrageously farcical Raising Arizona that announced the Coens' darkly comedic audacity to the world. It wasn't widely seen when released in 1987, but its modest audience was vocally supportive, and this hyperactive comedy has since developed a large and loyal ...

Using reenactments and impressive computer graphics--used with ...

A magical, musical nanny brings a breath of fresh air into the stuffy Banks household in turn-of-the-century England. Overstuffed with gaiety, this children's fantasy is filled to the brim with wonderful dance numbers and outrageous songs (such as the seemingly unpronounceable "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious"). The film's seamless blending of live-action with animation was a marvel in its day. This is Andrews' film debut and Darwell's last ...

Numbers and shapes are the focus of this third Babyscapes video, set entirely to the music of Mozart in deference to the studies that show Wolfgang Amadeus has a particularly potent effect on young minds. Simple animation and repetition are the key here, with parachuted numbers 1-10 falling, in order, out of a dirigible, while children's voices count. They fall again silently so your youngsters may count by themselves. As with each segment in ...

Mr. Graham's bill [H. R. 256] to provide a fund for the permanent endowment of the State University, was reported back by Mr. Graham with certain amendments and a recommendation that the bill pass as amended.
The report was concurred in.
On motion by Mr. HEFFREN the bill was ordered engrossed.
The following described bills were introduced, read the first time, and severally passed to the second reading unless otherwise stated:
By Mr. AKIN [H. R 407] to amend Section 4, the same being Section 4,556 of the Revised Statutes of 1881, requiring the State Superintendent of Public Instruction in his next apportionment of the School Fund to set apart $10,000, and semi-annually deduct the same amount, and set it apart, to be known as a Normal School Fund.
By Mr. TULEY [H. R. 408] to amend Sections 7, 21 and 41 of an act to provide for a general system of Common Schools.
On motion by Mr. GORDON the constitutional rules were suspended-yeas, 72; nays, 5-and his bill [H. R. 408] was read the second time by title, was considered engrossed, and read the third time by sections and passed the House by yeas, 76; nays, 0.
By Mr. SCHLOSS [H. R. 409] an act in relation to Theater buildings.
By Mr. PULSE[H. R. 410] to provide for the subdividing of lands and lots.
By Mr. SHIVELY [H. R. 411] concerning foreign Insurance Companies.
Mr. COPELAND offered a resolution instructing our Senators and requesting our Representatives in Congress to use their influence to secure pensions for the members of the Indiana Legion.
The resolution was referred to the Committee on Military Affairs.
Mr. Whitsit's bill [H. R. 13] concerning the use of firearms, was read the third time and passed the House by yeas, 75; nays, 0.
Mr. Shockney's bill [H. R. 22] to equalize the assessment of taxes made by the Board of Trustees of the town of Winchester, in the County of Randolph, was read the third time and passed the House by yeas, 75; nays, 4.
Mr. Henderson's bill [H R. 29] to enable the several Counties in the State to sell and dispose of land for the benefit of the school fund, was read the third time, and on motion by Mr. FRAZER was laid on the table.
The bill [H. R. 30] to amend Section 8 of an aot regulating descent of heirs, approved March 2, 1855, was read the third time.
Mr. JEWETT stated that when he examined the bill it appeared to him that the bill had been drawn for a particular case. He meant no offense by such a statement. He believed that it wax unnecessary legislation; that we are trying to do by legislation what the parents can do at present by their own action if they desire.
Mr. FRAZER explained that under the present law if a person adopt a child and then die, that the property went to the adopted child. He con page: 183[View Page 183]sidered this proper and as it should be, but he did not think it proper if that adopted child died without children, that this property should go to the family of the adopted child. He thought that the estate should revert to the family or the relatives of the person who had adopted the child. Mr. Frazer cited a case where a child was adopted and the person who adopted the child died. The adopted child died soon after and the mother of the child came in afterward and sued for and recovered from the persons who held the estate several thousand dollars, and who were the proper heirs. He argued that where the adopted child died without wife or without husband or children, then the property should go back to the family or relatives of the person who adopted the child.
Mr. STEWART thought that if a family adopted a child, thus making it their own, it should have all the rights and privileges of an own child. People generally adopt a child with the understanding that that child may inherit their property, and it would not be just to take from them this right.
Mr. WILSON, of Marion, thought that, under the present law, a person who adopted a child was adopting the whole family. Mr. Wilson cited a case similar to that cited by Mr Frazer: Where an adopted child died and its mother came in and brought suit for the property that would have fallen to the adopted child had it not died. He thought the bill was a wise one, and favored its passage.
Mr. ADAMS and Mr. GIBSON favored the pass- age of the bill.
The bill passed by yeas, 73; nays, 11.
Mr. Patten's bill [H. R. 32] to create the Forty-third Judicial Circuit, was read the time.
Mr. ADAMS stated that he did not desire to make a speech on the bill, but desired to state to the House that he knew concerning the necessity of this bill. In a recent conversation with the Judge of this Circuit he learned that at the close of the last term of Court the business pending was greater than at the beginning of the term. He considered it a matter of economy that the bill should pass.
Mr. HELMS desired to state that he was in favor of this bill. He had been petitioned by the entire Bar of his County with one exception to work for the passage of this bill. He was informed by an attorney of the Bar that the Court was more than a year behind. He hoped that the bill would pass.
Mr. SMITH also favored the passage of the bill.
Mr. PATTEN stated that the Court was very much behind, and it was a matter of necessity that the bill pass.
The bill passed by yeas, 75; nays, 10.
Mr. Robertson's bill [H. R. 381] to fix the time of holding Court in the Counties of Jackson and Washington, was called up.
On motion of Mr. HEFFREN the Constitutional roles were suspended, the bill read the second time by title, considered engrossed, read the third time by sections and passed the House by yeas, S3; nays, 0.
Mr. Patten's bill [H. R. 34] to legalize the election of the Board of Trustees of the town of Sullivan, Sullivan County. Indiana, was read the third time and passed the House by yeas, 80; nays, 1.
Mr. Patten's bill [H. R. 33] to amend Section 1 of an act to provide for a homestead exempting it from sale on execution, and exempting certain personal property, was read the third time.
Mr. HEFFREN did not know why the House should enact class legislation. He was opposed to class legislation, and ho was not aware that one debt was any more sacred than another. There is already in the statute books a law by which mechanics can put liens upon property. This bill does not give them any more rights, in fact, not so many.
Mr. PATTEN thought the gentlemen [Mr. Heffren] was wrong. The bill is simply to protect laboring men, and to enable small property holders to secure the necessary labor, which they can not do at present, because they have not the re- quired amount of property to make them amenable to the law. It is simply right that when a man performs a day's labor he should have wages for it.
The bill passed by yeas. 73; nays, 10.
Mr. Pattens bill [H. R. 35] to amend Section 18 of an act to incorporate the town of Sullivan was taken up and read the third time, and on motion by Mr. PATTEN was laid on the table.
Mr. Kirkpatrick's bill [H. R. 53] to legalize the incorporation of the town of Burnetsville, White County, was read the third time and passed the House by yeas, 77, nays. 3.
The bill [S. 207] to define the Thirty-first and Forty-fourth Judicial Circuits.
The bill [S. 91] for the better government of the House of Refuge.
The bill [S. 50] concerning the Directors of the Northern Prison.
The Senate concurrent resolution requesting Indiana Congressmen to favor the passage of a law giving reasonable time for disabled soldiers to file claims for arrears of pensions, was read, and,
On motion by Mr. Heffren, was concurred in by the House.
The following described Senate bills were read the second time and referred to appropriate Committees:
The bill [S. 102] to amend the Feeble Minded Asylum incorporation act.
The bill [S. 167] to authorize municipal corpora- tions to invest sinking funds temporarily.
The bill [S. 34] to permit municipal taxes to be paid in installments.
The bill [S. 219] to authorize Gas and Water Companies to extend mains beyond city limits.
On motion the bill [S. 29] to legalize the acts of Trustees of Westfleld was read the third time, and passed the House by yeas, 69; nays, 1.
The House adjourned.

Square Enix officially announces Star Ocean on PS3, passes along hilarious fact sheet
Square Enix has finally dropped the official announcement that Star Ocean: The Last Hope is PS3-bound.
Releasing worldwide on February 9, 2010, the game's an "international" affair. It gives the PS3′s Blu-Ray drive plenty to chew on with English and Japanese voices and English, French, Italian, German, Spanish and Japanese options for everything aside from spoken word.
Also, after a cursory glance at the game's fact sheet, Shacknews discovered its shocking (but mostly hilarious) secret. Click through the link for a quick chuckle. Which, we guess, still counts as "more."

Star Ocean producer originally wanted to make erotic games
Square's Star Ocean producer Yoshinori Yamagishi was keen on making erotic games at one time.
Yamagishi explained to Videogamer:
"This is actually a quotation from a conversation I had when I was still talking with Enix before the company merged with top management people," he said. "I said yes, maybe one day I would like to try something more adult content. That's true!
"But that's not to say that we wanted to create something erotic and ended up with Star Ocean: the Last Hope. That's not the case."
Right then.
Yamagishi mentioned that the Star Ocean engine makes it possible to do a DS, PSP, or a PS3 version–but that's just not as interesting.

Square: Game storytelling can surpass film
Star Ocean: The Last Hope producer Yoshinori Yamagishi has told CVG that games as storytelling media are still far from their full potential.
"As opposed to films, books and TV, as a medium it is more of a challenge to produce a game in order to tell a story," he said.
"In TV, film and theatre, the creator has control over how he gives the story to the viewer – it's easier to control the emotions and feelings expected from the viewer.
"But in [a game developer's] case we always have to think about how players might react to each depiction of a character or storyline, and that's the part we can't predict. Nevertheless we have to make these predictions to a certain degree, and incorporate this into our work. So it's more of a challenge.
"But if we manage to get over this hurdle, then I regard videogames as a greater medium to provide people with deep emotional and exciting experiences."
There's a full interview here.

Square UK: Star Ocean "has not been delayed"
Star Ocean: The Last Hope's now-confirmed June PAL date does not mean the game's been delayed, Square said this morning, despite a CVG story yesterday to the contrary.
"The game has not been delayed," a rep told VG247.
"We announced Star Ocean: The Last Hope would be released during spring in January of this year. We use the summer solstice on June 21st as the official start of summer, so by announcing the game will be released in June, it is still on schedule to technically be released in our interpretation of spring."
The original story said the game had moved out of a previously confirmed spring time-frame.
The 360 RPG has already released in Japan and the US.
Wed, Mar 04, 2009 | 22:58 GMT
Star Ocean: The Last Hope delayed until June in UK
CVG has learned from Square Enix that Star Ocean: The Last Hope will be delayed until June in the UK.
Game was expected early this spring, and the US and Japan already have it.
No reason was given for the delay, but we've contacted Square Enix to see if we can get to the bottom of it.

Star Ocean 4 does proper sales on Japanese debut [Update]
According to Famitsu, Star Ocean 4 sold 166,027 units in its first four days on sale in Japan.
This apparently makes it the third fastest selling Japanese 360 game of all time, next to:
- Blue Dragon – 203,740 copies
- Tales of Vesperia – 170, 024 copies
- Star Ocean 4: The Last Hope – 166,027 copies
Spot the RPG theme? The Square game's out in Europe this "spring".
Thanks, Kotaku and Blerk.
Update – It's been pointed out that these are actually lifetime sales figures, meaning The Last Hope will almost certainly go on to be the biggest-selling 360 game in Japan so far.

See Star Ocean 4 being played on the internet
Don't know how long this will last, but if you want to sit around watching someone play Square Enix's Star Ocean: The Last Hope then you can here.
Picture quality isn't great, and it's of course all in Japanese, but there's more than enough there to give you an idea of how the RPG will play.
You may also notice that fighting as a female always gives you a celebratory up-skirt shot when you win. Or so we're told, anyway…

Square alters Star Ocean design for western release
In an apparent effort to cater to western tastes, Square Enix has produced two HUD designs for Star Ocean: The Last Hope, one for Japan and one for the US and Europe.
As you can see on Siliconera, the western release features CG models for characters in the fight scenes, whereas the Japanese version's gone for an anime look.
The menus are different, too.

JRPG Star Ocean: The Last Hope will release this "spring" on PAL 360′s, Square's confirmed.
There's no mention of any PS3 version in today's PR, despite an extra SKU being heavily tipped.
"Star Ocean has already proved to be a popular series in Japan, we now hope that players around the world can discover why," said Square Enix boss John Yamamoto.
"Star Ocean: The Last Hope is a stunning new adventure in the series that is sure to delight both fans and newcomers alike."
Press release and 18 new screens after the drop.

Star Ocean: The Last Hope trailer looks like Japanese Mass Effect
Microsoft recently posted what appears to be the first English Star Ocean: The Last Hope trailer, and we're pretty stoked.
Prepare your feeble, un-blown mind for — among other things — earth-engulfing nukes, madcap battles, and some guy who kind of looks kind of like Darth Vader. Or, if Mass Effect isn't your thing, just fast-forward to 1:05, where the game becomes Quake III.
So yeah, now you can probably understand why we're counting down the days until Star Ocean: The Last Hope hits shelves. April – or February if you live in the US – can't come soon enough.

Thanks, jnms.

Star Ocean: The Last Hope NA release moved up, no changes elsewhere
Square Enix RPG Star Ocean: The Last Hope is officially hitting the streets one week early – at least, if you live in North America.
According to an email received by GameCyte, Square Enix has decided to give the Xbox 360-exclusive's release date a slight tummy-tuck, resulting in a February 24 release date.
Other territories' dates, however, remain unchanged, with Japan joining Edge Maverick and co. on February 19, and Europe on April 24.
We intend to slay this three DVD-ed beast as soon as humanly possible. How about you?

The Arrival
Due to the absolute lukewarm reception of Hypocrisy's last effort, it seems as if Tägtgren and company have decided to go with the publicity ridden "return to form" campaign for The Arrival. In essence, this ultimately means bring back the alien themed shit and stick to what you know best and that of course is the mid-paced grinder tracks littered with speed bursts but never really going ballistic music that Hypocrisy is so well known for. The quick question, does this oust Catch 22's lackluster and completely forgettable offering? And my answer to that question would be an absolute firm, fuck yeah! But lets move on to the bigger question at hand, does this album embody the full potential of what we all know is/was a great band? And the answer to that question my friends is no!
Album opener, "Born Dead Buried Alive" does indeed cosmetically solidify the concept of "return to form" and I jumped right on board with this track, wanting nothing more than to believe that Hypocrisy was indeed back to what they do best. The track is pure Hypocrisy sound, that plodding spacey driving force and of course the perfect amount of speed to fully enhance its dynamic state. When I broke out this album for a buddy, one of the first things he said after hearing "BDBA" was, "that no matter what Hypocrisy writes one thing is for sure, you can always tell when you're listening to a Peter Tägtgren album". I have to agree completely, Tägtgren definitely has a signature sound regardless of what he is offering up; his specific sound always holds true. I would also like to point out how well Tägtgren's voice sounds throughout The Arrival, his croak/bark is fully intact and as strong as ever. Tracks 2 and 3, "Eraser" and "Stillborn" are primarily the two tracks that for me taint this album completely. In my opinion they both seem like left over Catch 22 tracks and definitely don't fall in place with the "return to form" shtick that The Arrival is supposed to deliver. Oddly enough these two tracks are some of Tägtgren's favorites, who the fuck would have thunk it? Also "Eraser" will be the first big video push tune as well. I'm sorry, but I find both tracks completely forgettable and almost expendable. Onward and upward to the meat of The Arrival. The next three tracks, "Slave to the Parasites", "New World" and "The Abyss" are the absolute album winners and could quite easily be found on either The Final Chapter or The Fourth Dimension. Tracks like these are why people buy Hypocrisy albums in the first place. All three tracks have that unmistakable "Destroys Wacken" feeling, which for me saw Hypocrisy at the pinnacle of their career. It should be noted that "The Abyss" was one of the first tracks that Tägtgren ever recorded and due to "public demand" rerecorded it properly. Track 8, "Dead Sky Dawning" actually reminds me of a Soilwork-esque song. No cleans but that smooth chorus is unmistakable and comes across pretty much as filler. Track 9, "Departure" is exactly that, a departure of my attention. More slow moving Hypocrisy stealth that has potential but just doesn't seem to go anywhere in the end. Ending track, "War Within" does take The Arrival out on a high note. With a semi up tempo bludgeoning that deserves to see some stage time on their upcoming tour and really should have seen an earlier arrival on The Arrival.
Bottom Line: Regardless of what Tägtgren spews forth, I have the utmost respect for him and his accomplishments. I cannot deny this man's impact on the scene and past albums that still find merit even within today's fickle fucking world of metal. I found The Arrival a much better listen than Catch 22 but the staying power of this album is minimal. The added addition of Horgh from the now infamous and defunct Immortal should be exactly the push that Hypocrisy needs. I have to believe the next Hypocrisy effort will be more of a "return to form" than The Arrival turned out to be. Lars Szöke, although one hell of a nice guy really comes across as a bump on a log throughout The Arrival. Hypocrisy's original lineup had stayed in tact for quite some time until now and quite possibly Tägtgren has just got too comfortable. Again though I must say with Horgh handling the backbone of Hypocrisy these days I am quite confident even Tägtgren will have to step up his own performance, which in reality should blast out that Hypocrisy album that jaded fucks like me demand from modern musicians.

The multi-award winning Monterey 2 Group 2/3 highback booster is the only seat to offer full EPS foam protection around the whole seat. 11 height adjustable headrest positions, ISOFIX connection and extra deep sides with metal reinforced wings are just some of the reasons this is a great choice of booster seat.
The Monterey 2 Group 2/3 booster seat from Diono offers industry-leading features in one value package. It's the only seat of its kind to feature a complete EPS foam surround and metal reinforced sides for superior side impact protection. The deep and high wings protect the full length of the body. Isofast connectors keep the seat secure, even when not in use and are easily adjusted with front straps.
Additional features include the adjustable back with its simple twist dial, which expands to 50cm, offering the perfect fit for your growing child. 11 headrest positions, a specially angled and contoured seat and a longer seat base with extra padding ensure proper body support and comfort.
Thick AirTek foam and mesh fabric offer increased airflow and comfort. Deep retractable cup holders and removable washable covers make life convenient and comfortable. Easily transferred between vehicles, with bottom rubber pads to protect upholstery, the Monterey 2 is a practical and safe car seat which makes the ideal travel companion for any family.
This is a good looking car seat which fits nicely with my car interior. My daughter loves her 'big girls seat' now after we replaced her Britax First Class. Easy to fit and nicely padded.
This is a great looking sturdy seat. Bought it as a next stage seat for my 4yr old as she had started to outgrow her other seat. Its great because it fixes into car using the isofix connectors which makes it a fixed booster rather than one that just sits there. Its a very comfortable seat and well padded the only downside is if my daughter falls asleep on long journeys as its so upright her head falls to her chest which isnt that comfortable but she rarely falls asleep so isnt too much of a problem and I think it would be the same whatever booster seat we had. Overall its a great seat and I would definitely buy again.
great product that fits into our car (vauxhall meriva) wonderfully. Went to buy much more expensive isofix carseat, but when we tried the big brands they did not fit our car very well. This fits great with no real movement once fitted. It has cupholders so my 4 year old daughter is very happy. Great product at an amazing price.
