One Last Level

Yeah, it's my second google-related post, but that's because I am so awesome and have so many friends that I am allowed to do that. Anyway, I just read a fairly interesting article about google and what if it ever went down. There's more to google than I thought, to be honest.

If you don't notice what's different there, look under the sponsored ads, they list brand names for digital cameras. Similar things appear if you search "computer" or "car" and probably much more. If I would take a guess, I'd say it's a new type of advertising for google in which companies can pay for their brand to be listed on there, but that's just speculation. In any case, it's boring news, but news is news, I guess.

In short, it was made for PC, and he just doesn't need that riff-raff in HIS technology.
Full Story

Yeah, I started getting obsessed with music making and stuff, so I got very busy. I was told if I posted this image all would be forgiven, so I hope all is forgiven.

Hi guys May, looks like it's going to be an excellent month for the gaming industry, here are my top three thing's that I'm excited for in gaming industry in the month of May.

   1.Red Dead Redemption
   2.More news on the Infinity Ward drama
   3.The Halo Reach beta

Of course Red Dead Redemption is first, I was sad that they had push the release date back by about a month of course the developers did this to refine the game and get rid off all the bugs or glitches that were present in the build before it went gold, the game looks like it's going to be a epic, oh trust me this game is going to be epic.

The Infinity Ward drama has been a hot topic for months now, the reason that stated that their publishing company (Activision) fired the pair was "Insubordination and breach of contract", honestly I don't think that they breached anything in their contract, Activision, Call of Duty's publisher were meant to pay both Zampella and West 36 million, for Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2's success eventually Activision filed a lawsuit against the two and West and Zampella filed a lawsuit as well, seeking their 36 million that they were still owed, soon after these lawsuit were filed EA partners must have contacted Zampella and West offering them a decent deal, their new company is now called "Respawn Entertainment" the terms of the contract were that Zampella and West would own the IP, EA would give them "Start-up money" to hire people.


And last but not least, the Halo Reach Beta! Gosh I'm so excited, for the Beta, hopefully the Halo series can rekindle itself this time around.




Thats all guys, until till next time

Yesterday, I download the demo, played it, it was "fun", eventually after 2 deaths I figured out why I actually had to get inside the monster that I was battling, there were an awesome selection of guns there was a turret (which I attempted to use but got killed when the monster stepped on me), on the second attempt it took me 14 minutes, after shooting its legs, its core etc. of course on my first attempt I continually got stepped on when trying to kill the monster with a machine gun which of course as you can imagine was a futile attempt, regardless of all this respawning, I had a great time.

Recently Bungie, (the developers who make the Halo series) revealed what is in the Collectors and Legendary
Editions of Halo Reach, luckily I Pre-Ordered the Legendary Edition at my local EB Games/Gamestop, when the GameInformer article on Halo: Reach  released months ago, fortunately I'm 3rd in-line according to my local EB Games store, of course if any case worse comes to worse I can get one from work, regardless here's some pictures and info on the editions

Hi guys, since most Australians have a long weekend this week (I got today off as well, which is Friday in this timezone) I will try to post as much as possible, starting with a bunch of info on the Halo Reach multiplayer beta and the Legendary Edition reveal, my opinion on the Lost Planet 2 demo that was just released, things I'm extremely excited  for in the month of May, Marvel vs Capcom 3 news and why you should download the Lost Planet 2 demo.

So sit back and enjoy the ride, my next article should be up soon.

In honour of this blog having 51 posts, I won't blog at all this weekend and will instead attend several 51st parties.

In Australia's neighboring country, New Zealand Splinter Conviction was released in the past week apparently the New Zealand based promoter of Splinter Cell Conviction, the Monaco Corporation attempted to promote the release inbut little did they know thatit would be in extremely negative ways, a man (with a plastic gun) walked into the New Zealand based bar named Degree, and started pointing a plastic gun at others who were in the bar, the company must have honestly thought that they would have gotten "it"  (That this was a promotion for Splinter Cell: Conviction) obviously, the people in the bar didn't the police were called and the promotional company issued a statement "We do apologize, we shouldn't have had guns down there", they then went on to say "It's just marketing gone wrong".

Apparently, one mom is quite wise and is trying to raise her soon to be a proper nerd.

Okay, it hasn't been released yet, but thanks to my cunning skills and linguistic abilities, I convinced an apple guy to give me it. And by it, I mean fruit, and by apple guy, I mean apple monger.

There's a lot of cakes out there, many of them can be eaten, and this is one of those edible ones, but it's almost like you wouldn't want to eat it, because it's such an awesome cake, amirite? This is from one of the only SUPER LOTS OF MANY THINGS I've done recently. If any of you have cakes that can top this, send it to bpwnsl@gmail.com, because hey, cakes are awesome,

So, today I went to go play some chess on Yahoo games because I like chess, shut up. Anyway, I noticed a featured article was about gamers. Apparently, Yahoo just discovered people use BAD words on xbox live. Here's the article:

Other than my fail post which no longer exists (I shouldn't blog when I am tired, my "facts" get blurred) AS IF I WRITE ANYTHING FACTUAL AHAHA. Anyway, that used to be a GoW3 opinion article, which came after my GoW3 opinion article. Different games though, don't get them mixed up, one's for the xbox, other is for ps3.

If you're looking to upgrade that iPhone of yours to an iPad all by yourself, this picture provide a handy guide for you.

Wow, what A ride, so far the game has been exceptionally good, the single player campaign definitely rewards players for using stealth as opposed to attempting to kill everyone in the room with a pistol, usually when I'm caught in that situation (and I can no longer can execute) I usually wip out my pistol and lock on-to the enemies head and pull the trigger, move to a different location, lock on to the head and rinse and repeat, however there are times were I have been caught out and had to resort to using hand-to-hand take downs only which (as you can imagine) was a head ache, however the developer's definitely put an array of different attack option's in front of you, for instance you can climb on a pipe (that is hanging from the wall/ceiling), and drop down and insta-kill an enemy or drop behind him and gain the ability to execute, then quickly head shot/execute the remaining enemy's. As an added bonus Sam Fisher (the character that you play in the single player campaign, will receive new DLC weekly, starting tomorrow (today in some timezones) I usually like developers who take this approach, because they are more likely to extend the amount of play time that me or you are any other, player on Xbox Live (remember this game is an Xbox 360 exclusive, but the example is applicable to most consoles made after 2006, Xbox 360, PS3...etc.) The multiplayer campaign seemed fun (I did get the same playtime with it as the Single player) however I really didn't have as much fun (although some features were pretty cool to have), it really didn't cut it for me, however If you just want to play single player, this game is recommended, although the Co-Op missions that I player were alright, they just were 'meh rather than wow OMFG that was so amazing!
usually games that give me the "intense" feeling usually satisfy me, the Co-op missions that I played weren't that spectacular, there were moments where the tension is very, very high, however I will see if I can get more play time at work on my lunch break.
Also I'm planning to do a review on Red Dead Redemption (which I Pre-Ordered today) and the Halo Reach Beta (which comes out on May 3rd )(the 4th in some countries) and then Red Dead Redemption comes out on the 18th of May (The 19th in some countries).
That's all thanks for reading.

Apparently, some satellite determined that it would be a good idea to look at a moon thermally (Protip: Most of the heat will be on the side facing the sun) and what came out was this image. It's pretty cool, because even aliens like pacman, so we can use this knowledge to make some deals.

When this game was announced and the teaser trailer was released on Xbox Live, I was extremely excited, why do you ask? This game basically looks like a remake of Modern Warfare 2 but well better, however (as we have come to learn) it probably won't sell as much as the the previous CoD installment or have as much playtime on Xbox Live, however I feel that gamers who were around for the last Medal of Honor, will hopefully find this game enjoyable, I know DICE (know for the Battlefield series) will do the multiplayer, justice it will also (I'm just guessing here) will be very squad orientated, as opposed to other first person shooters were you're trying to take out the entire squad by yourself, hopefully EA does the campaign some justice as well (I'm hoping that I can actually connect with the characters or have some type of background information) instead of "You're apart of an elite squad who kills people, the end", it seems that most first-person shooters nowadays are just based on one premise (the one I stated earlier). However, this probably on my most anticipated games of 2010 list, hopefully the developers don't rush the development process of the game to coincide with Halo Reach's release. 

You may or may not of heard of Rockstar's new game. It's coming out around May 18th, and looks intense. But not just because it has cowboys in it. Well, actually, no. Just because it has cowboys in it. But for some other reasons, too. This game is about a former outlaw, John Marston, who takes a trip across places to save his family from federal agents. The weaponry is pretty cool. They have your usual cowboy guns, like, revolvers, repeaters, lassos, and so on. They also have a german pistol, for some reason. I've watched some vidyas on it, and it looks pretty cowboy-like. There's horses, and you can shoot people with bullets. I also think you can steal trains, which in my opinion is pretty cool, cuz' i mean, who doesn't like trains, and who doesn't like stealing? It has a pretty cool looking multi-player. It's pretty much just free roaming, but still, it looks cool. You can find stuff and junk on it- HERE (Also, they have some stuff about it here(Because ps3 has no games))

Days without updates, my fault, I blame it on this game.
