Well everyone get drunk and puke on someone who's pissed you off the most last year. Right that's what this holiday's for......right? O and ladies follow the example of your Vulcan friends up above....please....

GameFAQs Character Battle

So it's that time again. I've tried to win this thing once before and had no luck. I'm not that good a guesser but it's fun so I'm giver another go. And anyway you should too. GameFAQs has been "the" place to go for walkthroughs since I was a weeee little fella. It's good to support something like that and if you don't elves will can in you bedroom and watch you sleep.......creepy little buggers..... >.O

Mega Metal Tuesday

There's some sweet, sweet metal to get your day started right with. Now go kill the whole damn world. >: )

New Awesome PS3 Game- Demon Souls

This is a freaking hard game but still fun as hell. Looks great with some badass demons that need killing. It does suck when you die and lose all your souls but it's what gives you that feeling of holy crap I do not want to die. :P If you've got a PS3 check this mo fo out.

Microsoft to 'encourage exercise' >.O What?

Aperently gamers are getting fat, so Microsoft is going to take it upon themselves to get us in shape . :/ Hopfully this will only be with there select excersize games. If it is for all games I shall be taking all my gaming to the PS3. If I don't want a government telling me what to do I certainly am not going to listen to Microsoft. >:( Stupid, stupid, stupid Microsoft.

Richs In Games

This fall gamers have been very fortunate to have an quite allot of great games and it looks to continue on to the next year. Many great titles are coming around for more installments. Like Mass Effect 2, Bioshock 2, God of War 3, and Army Of Two: 40th Day. As well as many more titles that could very well be hidden blockbusters waiting to happen. So I urge all of you to ignore your family this Christmas and save your money for the truly important things. :)




This message has been brought to you by your arsehole blog master and his views should not be held by anyone who is not on medication, thank you.

Mass Effect 2 Cast

If you a Mass Effect fan this is a must check out video of the cast for there next game. My watching it get's me pumped as hell to play the new game.

Funny From Youtube

Someday I'm going to try this. :D

Mega Metal Tuesday And a Little Rap

Enjoy the metal, feel the metal, be the metal! And jsut for a change up here's some rap.

A Little Love For The Hardline Perk

So I've been devoting myself to playing the hell out of Modern Warfare 2 and I still finding out which setups I like and which I don't. But I have a new found love of the Hardline perk. It's the one that gives you your kill streak one kill earlier. Which may not sound like much but it can make a big difference when your going for a freaking 9 kill streak.

For my first time I'm using the Scar with Slight of Hand and Scrambler. It's nice because even with losing the Stopping Power perk it can still drop people fairly well. Though sometimes then can get away when they shouldn't have. Anyway give it a try if you haven't and keep killing my friends. :)

Two Little Things

Man I found something to hate in the game last night. The freaking ninja knife mother feckers! They run are with commando, lightweight, and I forget what else and it pretty much teleport them 5 feet into stabbing your ass. Really freaking lame Infinity Ward.

O here's another gripe. The games and lobby are allot more unstable then COD:W@W's ones. Back playing that game I maybe got kicked out of a lobby once a night. On MW2 it's like 5 or 6 if I'm lucky.

So I forget why is Infinity Ward better then Treyarch?

Oi!

If ya can't tell I had a good Thanksgiving in which we went to Medieval Times for dinner and a show. Damn good stuff. I also spent to my money at the great bar they had. :D

May be slow to get back into the swing of things this week.

Mega Metal Tuesday

Here's a freaking awesome metal song.

Two Great Games To Pick Up

Assassins Creed 2 and Left4Dead 2 have come out to great reviews. I myself have played allot of Left4Dead 2 and a little Assassins Creed 2. (Saving it for later) But both have the feeling of AAA titles so for sure check out these reviews and do yourself a favor and at lest rent them.

Assassins Creed 2 Review Gamespot 9.0

Left4Dead 2 Review Gamespot 9.0

Funny From Youtube

Here's an awesome video. The dude that did this is an asshole but a funny one.

Call of Duty Gets Another Studio

I can't believe this. I already spend to much time playing the Call of Duty series as is. In any event this should be interesting. Perhaps now that Treyarch is moving away from WWII the new studio might pick up making those games. I just don't see this being good thing, if the new studio does a crappy job it's going to look bad on the whole group.

Filler Stuff

Don't know what to post today so here's some filler videos.

Cute freaking puppy and an ok advertisement for MW2.

Microsoft Bans 1 Million Users

This is freaking great! I love that Microsoft is stepping up to take care of software pirates. I know games are expensive but by pirating there not helping the situation there making it worse. And it's a slap in the face to everyone who likes to support there favorite games and not brake the law. I'm sure they'll end up finding a way around but even if it just messes up some of there days MS gets a thumb up from me.

This Might Be The Real Moden Warfare 2 Prestiges

A friend named BiThBhE0 posted this on a forum. Time will tell if these are real but they do look pretty freaking cool.

Parliament spat heralds UK Modern Warfare 2 launch

I like this story allot. It's awesome to read that someone is stepping up to defend gaming. And I hope that with the years to com that this will only increase till video games surpass movies, books, and music.

Mega Metal Tuesday

Enjoy the metal. Let the metal wash over like the many waves of the sea. Man I am to tired to post stuff. :/

So we've got some Children of Bodom, Arch Enemy, Coal Chamber, and Nightwish. You know what pisses me off is allot of people on youtube have the bands music to where you can't embed it. So no Alice in Chains, or System of a Down. Grrrrrrrrr

Also Modern Warfare 2 comes out today so do your part and go out and buy it or rent it. And if you have kids make sure they've got it or you'll ruin there life forever and they'll hate you for it, honest. O.o

Activision Helping Veterans

Here's a pretty cool story that Activision plans spend $1 million dollars to help unemployed veterans. I think this is a truly great thing for Activision to do. Heck these are the guys that do what you've structured your money maker after. It's a real shame the Government can't even take care of the people who fought for it. >:(

I'm no expert on this of course, all I see are the results and there really shouldn't be any unemployed veterans unless, they the veterans, want to be unemployed.

A Stupid Blind Person

Ok this idiot's suing Sony Online because he can't see the video game......You have trouble seeing dumb ass sue your God if anybody for one making you blind if you didn't do it yourself and apparently for making you retarded. I'm really getting tired of people suing of stupid shit. So here's what the rules should be if it doesn't hurt you or steal from you SHUT THE FUCK UP! Yes your going blind and hey guess what your not entitled to do everything someone who can see can, get over it. People suing over foolish things like this ruin it for people who have actually been hurt by someone.

Hmm my dad get's motion sickness when he plays games the move to fast I guess we should sue for them not making all games playable for him.

Alrighty rant over, had to get that out of my system.

Venezuela to jail violent-game merchants

Now this is kind of interesting. If I'm reading it right there arresting sellers the sell violent video games to kids. Now I think jail time is a little much for first time offenders but I could see a fine. Thing is though if a parent wants to buy there kid that game then it should be fine. It's there choice if there kid can handle it or not.

But retailers should not make that choice and I like it whenever I even see a parent buying Grand Theft Auto 4 for little 7 year old Timmy and the store workers like yeah you sure you want to do that this game has this, this and this. Then the parent yells at the kid, good times. :)

Modern Warfare 2 Perks

He you go, brought to you by my buddy Sandman.

Mega Metal Tues...Um...Thursday :D

Only got two today as well.Got to freaking get to work or something. >:(

Xbox Live Rewards Program

Now this is a good idea. I really hope I get freaking picked for it. Shit I've been a member lond enough and already spent so much money on there marketplace. Ether way it's nice to see them try to do something nice for there members even if it is a small group.

World Of Warcraft Shut Down in China

So there's some kind of power struggle going on so there using online gaming as a battle ground. Seems stupid to me but who ever said that people with power are smart. In fact I say there's a good power increase to brain decrease ratio 1:1 at lest.

Let the Good Times Roll

Had a great time this past weekend my sister threw a party for Halloween and the good times were had by all. I'm the Grimm Reaper up there and in the cup was your souls! Well souls, punch and Vodka. Mainly with the Vodka.

Played party games, watched "Night of the Living Dead" and fed trick'or'treaters.

Now this week in gaming Dragon Age: Origins comes out. It's supposed to be the spiritual successor to the great Balder's Gate series. We shall see but that's some big shoes to fill so I'm doubting it. It is looking good so at lest hceck the sucker out.

Assassin's Creed 2 Live Action Short

Freaking awesome! I hope they do allot of these and release them in a collectors edition of the game.

Left4Dead 2 Demo

So I downloaded the Left4Dead 2 Demo last night, which I got to do earlier then most because I pre-ordered it at Gamestop. Took about an hour and a half to download though, freaking long. The demo has to modes open to it, single player campaign and campaign multiplayer. So no liking having to deal with randoms I played the single player mode.

And I must say I'm impressed. Everything I liked about the first one they've brought back but they've changed enough to make it more intense. For what I can tell is they've stuffed allot more zombies in per area. So right from the get go it can get pretty frantic. The new spacial zombies don't really cause to much more problems but it is a welcome addition.

The new weapons are fun and feel right, and by right I mean powerful. When you shoot a zombie they really get damaged. Like limbs flying off as well as heads or just there chest getting blown out. It's really graphic so those who don't like the gore should definitely stay away. And now on to one of my favorite additions, melee weapons! In the demo I found three of them starting with a frying pan which was alright but not quite as satisfying as say the machete I found next! The thing was awesome chopping through zombies with. Head and limbs hacking off and it actually works for protecting yourself. The last one I was a police officer club but I did not pick it up for I had a freaking machete!

Fairly long for a demo you get to play through three areas though not all the way to the rescue vehicle. If you guys liked the last one or just want a zombie game definitely give this demo a download.

Modern Warfare 2 casting players as terrorists?

Here's Gamespot's story on it here, they do a better job telling things then I could. But now for my opinion, I think it's in bad taste for sure to have people play as terrorists, mainly because allot of people aren't going to want to do that. So in a game where you've largely killed terrorists before, for them to stick it in is a surprise and not a good one.

Me myself I have no problem playing that part of the game because I know it's a game. To me it's just as if I read it in a book or watched it in a movie. Still I see this doing nothing but hurting Modern Warfare 2. There will probably be allot of people who will not buy it just because of this. And in this sue happy days I would not be surprised if some distraught family who loved ones died from terrorists don't sue them at some point.

One things for sure is this will get them publicity, sadly for a game that's so well known it's hardly needed.

There also going to have some multiplayer modes play in third person insted of first. Which is fine as long as theyt don't mess with team death, normal or hardcore.

Mega Metal Tuesday

Ok so I've got some good ones today. Starting off with Otep's Breed that was originally done by Nirvana. Then we have some Soilwork's Nerve. And my favorite band Disturbed's Inside The Fire, dude can freaking sing. And bring up the rear Mushroomhead's Solitaire Unraveling.

Rock on mother fekers.

Fable III To Support Natal

This comic is from Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal, check them out great web comic for sure.


So Yeah Fable III with Natal.

There's two downsides I see to this one being that I have not interest in motion sensing games. If I did I'd be playing my Wii all the time. As it stands the thing never really gets touched. And most real gamers don't do there serious gaming on it ether.

Downside number two is there going to have microtransactions. I really hate that word. Nickel and dimeing for everything sucks and only those who really want something or have the money will buy stuff and everyone else will be playing a game missing things that it should already have. Now of course I'm not talking about full blown expansions or things like that but like a sword. Yeah one freaking sword. Just freaking give it to us in a game update you cheap bastards.

Borderlands

So far I'm liking this game. It's a little hard playing by yourself but playing co-op is a blast. Of course with the right people. This game is a great mix of collect gear RPG's and FPS. So far I'm finding a pretty good selection of guns. I like the pistols and shotguns. It has vehicles as well but the driving controls are not very good. I find myself running into things and off cliffs.

This definitely has a great sense of humor. It doesn't have much of a story but the crazy characters make up for it in there wackiness. So far I've fought bandits, midget bandits, dog things, and annoying birds of doom. All of which have killed me at lest once. I hope to spend my weekend playing this one before Forza 3 come out next week. If anything I've wrote changes I'll post it Monday.

Get these games or death shall fall upon you.

Loyal Shopping

So like many people today I'll only spend my money with certain people and or stores. But the main reasons I'll spend money at said store is because of the people. Take it this way. I'll only buy video games at a Gamestop because when I go in there they know me by name and know I'm not some noob when it comes to my gaming. They don't pester me about games coming out unless I ask because I already know about them all. Friendly prompt service with a smile.

Store that don't do that make it hard to go back to even if you like there product. Like I never go to Hardee's or Burger King any more for lunch. Our Hardee's is way to freaking slow and the Burger King out of 4 visits only got my order right once.

I also prefer to spend my money with small businesses that do good jobs. Small stores are even more likely to have that personal relationship with you. For awhile me and a guy at work ate at the same restaurant every week. The waitress knew what we wanted as soon as we sat down. Sadly our boss said we were taking to long on our lunch breaks so we had to stop.

So anyway there's my little ideas on this stuff.

Modern Warfare 2 Prestiges

Check em out. Let's see if it's right when the game comes out. :P

Mega Metal Tuesday

Here's some kickass metal enjoy.

Achievement Points & Trophies

This weekend I've played games I thought I was long done with. Why you may ask, because of achievement points. Now there's always games you love that you'll go back to time and time again. No matter how many times you beat it. Like for me Suikoden II and Oblivion. There's some oldies that even to this day I love. I haven't had my PS3 long enough to have oldies but I'm quickly finding the trophies are just as addictive to get.

I also had a thought that really achievement points are just an evolution of what video games have taught us. Even in the NES days we wanted the high score. We've wanted to find all the whistles in Super Mario 3. We've wanted to get all the Matera in Final Fantasy 7. Some, but not all of us to some degree or another are completionests. And partly so by the very video games we've played. At lest looking back that's what I see for myself.

I'd love to see Nintendo follow suit and create something similar. What's great about them if you don't like them,that's fine you don't have to get them. Options is the key word. Great developers and sellers of anything know that giving people options they like is the greatest way to sell. Cars, Movie theaters, Music, restaurants, bars are all made better with good options.

Gordon Freeman The Big Hero

This is what I picture Freeman's personalty as, freaking awesome.

So Gordon Freeman wins Gamespots "All Time Greatest Video Game Hero" contest. Which is kind of crazy seeing he beat out mother freaking Mario. In an earlier round he also beat out Solid Snake. Now I like Freeman but there's nothing to the man. We never hear how he feels or thinks about anything. Hell he may be a real asshole or worse a pansy. But at that point in the contest I think more people were voting against Mario then for Freeman. Any way congrats Dr.Freeman and if you guys haven't play Half-life get the freak out there and buy it. Your missing a great game.

WATCH THIS NOW!!

I'm buying this game now because of these two videos in hopes that this great humor is in the game.

Brutal Legend

So I've picked up the metal game for my PS3 and I must say I'm pretty impressed. They've done a very good meld of multiple genres to create a cool all though short game.

So the story is you a roadie have an accident on stage that sends you to a world based on metal. You team up with some people right away to right wrongs and punish the bad guys. You have a hot rod to get around the you can summon at any time. You fight with an axe and your guitar that shoots lightning. As you go you start building an army, first starting some headbanging idiots, then bikers that heal and finally chicks with guns.

Hears where they start to do something different, you have large scale battles where you command you troops using the D-pad. And there's these geysers the you have to play your guitar for to have them erupt with fan, your power source for summoning you troops. Fend off waves of enemy's and you win. w00t. I have not checked out the multiplayer yet but it's supposed to have a versus mode where you battle like that.

The voice acting in this game is top notch. With Jack Black voicing the main character, Ozzy being the Guardian of Metal and various of metal stars lending the voices to it. Funny enough you can Completely understand everything Ozzy says, weird right? And of course the music kicks major freaking ass. You find statue all around the world that unlock more music to hear as well. Speaking of the world it is and open one so drive around as you please to see all the cool metal world.

In final, I think it's a fun game made funner if you love metal music. It's shortness does hurt but I'll need to beat it once and see how capable I am of playing through a second time.

My Score: 9.0-for metalheads 8.0- for normal people

Gamespot Score: 8.5

The Last Remnant

So The Last Remnant is about a boy(you the main character) trying to rescue your sister after she gets kid napped. You end up making friends with a Duke and he gives you access to his troops. This is a JRPG but the do combat a little different. You have multiple units made up of leaders and the normal guys. You get to pick who you want and where you want them. And during combat you only give the units orders not the individuals.

Outside of combat you can see the monsters on the map so you can try to run from them if you want but that wouldn't be advisable seeing ass every battle you fight makes your guys stronger. There is certainly allot of side quest to do this with too.

So far it's main story is pretty interesting. Some unknown figures are screwing with the Remnants.(giant things of magic, I guess) And they've got your sister to boot. So your running around trying to catch them.

My Score: 7.5

Gamespot Score: 6.5

When Worlds Collide

Now that's some freaking awesome photo shopping right there. Call of Duty FTW!

Modern Warfare 2 outfitting XBL avatars

So there going to release Avatar cloths and try to make some free. And they said there not sure about Avatar rewards, that unlock when you unlock achievement points. Freaking a it'd be awesome to get some spacial swag for you little fella after you reached the 10th prestige.

Clash of the Titans Video Game?

So there making a new up to date Clash of the Titans movie so of course here comes the game with it. And sadly about 8 times out of 10 it will suck balls. But I'm still going hold out hope for it and my opinion will improve if the movie remake is good.

Halo series to continue through 2015

It will be nice when Halo: Reach comes out sometime next year and untill then you can pick up Halo:ODST to get your fix. But will Reach be Bungies last Halo game? Should be interesting to see what they do if there going all the way to 2015. I feel like I need to tea bag someone now.

Pirates hit navy ship 'in error'

Ha what a bunch of idiots. The French ship should have blasted them out of the water, freaking bleeding hearts.

Activision did not want a Modern Warfare game!

Isn't that crazy as hell. They want Infinity Ward to keep making WWII games on PC only. Luckily Infinity Ward stuck to there guns and put out Call of Duty 4:Modern Warfare that sold 14 million copies. With big number two around the corner it's already looking to out do it's predecessor. The hype is building as we get closer to release day November 10th. So who's going to get the night vision goggles to do so neighbor spying? :D

Jack The Ripper Game?

EA's Visceral Games makers of Dead Space have file to trademark "The Ripper". My question is do we hunt down the Ripper or do we get to be the Ripper. If it's the latter I'm very interested. It'll let everyone live out the serial killer dreams. Wait ......what do you mean I'm the only person that has thoughts?! Come here I'm going to.......so yeah lot's of game makers have trademarked names and never used them, just kept them in there back pocket so we will see what EA does.

Call of Duty Movie?

'Call of Duty' trademarked for films. I really can't see this working. The Call of Duty games don't really have movie story's. They have fight this bad guy here and then go fight this bad guy here. I mean I could be wrong and get surprised when or if they make a movie. Still I don't like all this talk of video game movies. They don't exactly have a good track record. About the only good one is the Silent Hill movie, everything else is B movie material or worse.

We've Got Modern Warfare 2 Trailer

This looks good as hell. It comes out Nov, 10th.

Sue Happy Idiots

So yeah first off this idiot tryed to sue PSN for banning him because he was tamping with the game. Damn right he deserves to be banned. The idiot said that they were violating his first amendment rights. What?Idiot! Good news is the judge threw it out. Thank god judges still have some brains left to them.

Poor EA is getting sued by everyone and there cousin. First one was from Jim Brown who felt they profited off his likeness in the all Browns team. Number two, there getting hit for Madden, NCAA, and Fight Night Round 4. If the suits are found valid then that's all good be if there not I think the courts need to start fining idiots that waist courts time.

Modern Warfare 2 Map Pack On The Way?

So it's not even out yet and there already talking about relese a map pack for it? I don't know everyone else feels about that but it sound to me like Activision is just going to milk this game for all it's worth. But that's just the first impression. The map packs not coming out till spring, so November to spring is a pretty long time. By then we will probably be begging for some new maps to slaughter on.

Second Left4Dead DLC

So I surprised to see this in the marketplace last night, seeing that Left4Dead 2 comes out in November. But being the zombie killer I am I had to download it. It does add another stage of single player but it's only half as long as the other ones. The old chapters might take an hour where this on only took me 20 minutes to beat. Luckily it does have more achievements with it so that should at lest get you to play through it a couple times.

My Score: 7.0

Fallout 3: Mothership Zeta

So I'm back on my addiction Fallout 3 with another add-on. In this one you get abducted by aliens and have to fight your way off there ship. It's fairly fun with some new weapons and it's interesting to go about there ship and see what they've been doing with humanity.

The alien combatants come in different degrees of difficulty, from poke him with a pillow and you'd kill him, to hit him with a small planet and he'd survive. They also have some robots and failed experiments we end up unleashing. Oops my bad little alien dude I was just looking for a bathroom. There's also a cargo hold that's full of stuff to go sorting through.

You make it through the ship with some fellow escapee's and take over the ship. Then you get to have a big ship to ship battle that's pretty freaking cool. And then boom your done in about 4 hours time. There are audio logs to collect scattered about the ship that can add allot more time to the game searching all over for them, and thankfully you can go to a beacon laying on the ground back in the waste to go back on the ship to continue the search at any time.

Sound and graphics are the same as the main Fallouts, so very good quality. If you've enjoyed the other DLC and are wanting something different and new to do in the waste this is a fun pick up for any wastelander.

My Score: 7.0

Gamespot Score: 6.0

Rock Band 2

So my mother and sister bought me Rock Band 2 this weekend for my b-day. And I must say it is a blast to play, with a wide selection of songs there sure to have something for everybody. And for a game to get my mother to play is awesome. She looked silly as hell playing the drums, which play pretty much like real drums which is why I suck at them. Vocals are a blast and very funny if you don't know the words to a song. It has local band play as well as online play.

My Score: 8.5

Gamespot: 8.5

Upcoming Games

Assassin's Creed II is coming out Nov, the 17th. A historic action adventure where your an assassins killing to save the world or something like that. Kind of reminds me of the movie Wanted's assassin's ideals.

Anyway here's the trailer for it check this bad boy out. Trailer

Saw is coming out Oct, the 6th. This is based of the movies by the same name. So I'm sure it will be gruesome but will it be good that's the question, I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Here's the a clip of it. Game Demo

Zombie Apocalypse

Here's a new game on the Xbox360 Arcade right now. I have a great love of killing zombies so I rushed to pick this up after work. You pick one of 4 people to fend off the zombie hoard with a machine gun, shot gun, rifle, duel smgs, Molotov cocktails and more. As your slaughtering there are some none infected people to try to rescue for bonus points as well as a wicked teddy bear bomb.

The stages you slaughter on have environmental kills as well, such as shooter the zombies into a wood chipper. :D I made to day twelve before falling to knife throwing grandmas. >:( Evil little things they are.

Controls are what make this feel like a real arcade game. The left analog stick moves you around and the right one fires you gun in whatever direction you move it. Really makes it easier to keep up with the fast paced action.

After putting my few minutes in I say it's a fun game and that 800 Microsoft Points is not a bad price.

My Score: 7.5

Unreal Tournament 3 Finished

So I finally finished this disappointing game. :( Story mode was crap because of being pretty much multiplayer maps and games without the fun of playing against human opponents.

Which means that your team mates are AI as well. : Of course there stupid as bricks. On a game type where you must take orbs to different platforms to take over the map they will take long out of the way paths when they have the orb costing you time pretty much making those stages a great annoyance. As well as sometimes getting into a loop of falling of a ledge or something.

After beating this games story mode I already feel that I've played the multiplayer mode for quite some time. So this one goes back on the shelve not to be touched again.

My Score: 6.5

Gamespot: 8.0

Don't Mess With Gamers!

Here's an article for ya. A student kills a bugler with a katana. Go student! I was reading a forum thread about this and it pisses me off how many bleeding hearts said that the student took it to far.

I'm sorry be if you break into my house you deserve to die. Plain and simple. If your to lazy or stupid to work that's no excuse to be stealing from others who work for there shit! Not only did the bastard break into there place attacked the guy. At lest the thief is dead instead of being given a slap on the wrist that seems to be out court system. :/

Halo:ODST Is Out

So a new Halo is out and it's looking to be a good one. Here's some of the scores it's gotten.

Gamespot : 9.0

IGN : 9.0

And here's it's badass commercial that makes me think a Halo movie would work.
