Great Movie

So,

I just saw The Boondock Saints recently, and learned three things from it:

1. Cats can explode.
2. Long-haired people can tell jokes.
3. William Defoe is the straightest gay guy I have ever seen.

Yeah, great movie. Good joke by the Funny Man.

The Modern Warfare 2 down-loadable content has hit the Xbox Live Marketplace. Send me your opinions so I can make a verdict.

MW2 Guide News and Other Updates

So,

Feedback has been telling me that people want an actual guide, so I will try to get Microsoft Word ASAP. Because of this, there will be no more MW2 Gun Review posts.

Me and my friend, DarkNinjalordZ, have been talking about a Halo 3 machinima using his Xbox. Actually, we are talking about two of them. They probably won't be series' just one time skits.

One will be about Master Chief and Arbiter playing Halo 3 and noticing some huge differences. The other will be about Chief argueing with an ODST and a Reach Spartan, primarily about their gear (cough, God Magnum, cough). These will take some time, and the Chief+ODST+Reach won't be out until Halo: Reach is released.

I'm still thinking about doing the office series. I can't draw for shit, so I need another way to do it. It might take a while, but I will try my best to do it.

Anyway, the MW2 DLC will cost 1,200 Microsoft Points or $14.99 for PSN. But, of course, BC2 has to counter, putting their DLC on the same date for free.

To be honest, I might not get Bad Company 2 just because they hate MW2 that much. For God's sake, MW2 is a hell of a lot better than Bad Company 2. Some people get caught up in the hype and think it's a game made by Jesus, and then they realize, "Wow. This game is shit."

I gotta go, so see ya.

Chill

P.S. God of War 3 is amazing (that isn't hype. that's fact).

MW2 Gun Review: SCAR-H

The SCAR is one of the most commonly used weapons in MW2, and for good reason. It is powerful and accurate, and the reload speed is quick as well. The clip size is small, a mere 20 rounds, and the fire rate isn't very fast.

Camos look amazing on this gun, especially Digital and Blue Tiger. The sound of the gun firing is cool, and the iron sights are one of the least cluttered in the game. Unfortunately, the reload is wrong AGAIN. Hitting the gun doesn't put a new bullet in, Infinity Ward.

Overall, very good gun. People use it for a good reason.

Rating: 4.5/5

More MW2 DLC News

So,

They renamed the maps for the DLC and finally gave a description. Storm is described as an industrial park littered with machinery, Bailout is an apartment complex, Salvage is another snowy area, and Crash and Overgrown are still returning.

MW2 Gun Review: FAMAS

The FAMAS is a gun that fires in a three round burst. Besides what the stats say ( because they lie), the FAMAS and M16 have the same damage number. The FAMAS' reload speed is longer than most assault rifles, and the ironsights are cluttered.

Camos look good on this gun, especially Urban or Fall. The sound of the gun firing is good for the ear, and doesn't really distract you. For some reason, the Red Dot and Holographic sights look weird on this gun.

Overall, it's a good firearm. Although the M16 is better, the FAMAS is solid.

Rating: 3/5

MW2 Gun Review: M4A1 Carbine

The M4 is a fully-automatic assault rifle with low power. It is best used in close to medium range fights. The recoil is manageable, but no long range sniping here. The reload animation is quick, but why do you press the magazine eject button to put a new bullet in? That's fundamentally retarded, Infinity Ward. Even I knew that, and I'm no gun expert.

The camos are very good-looking on the M4. My personal favorite camo is Blue Tiger, with Digital being in 2nd. The sound of the gun firing is one of the factors that pushes me away from this gun. It just doesn't sound... right.

Anyway, the M4 is a mediocre gun. Anything it can do, the ACR can do better. Not worth it.

Rating:2/5

Gun Guide

So,

Instead of using Microsoft Word (because I don't have it) (because it costs $500), I will be making a small MW2 guide HERE! It's small, but it has a lot of useful info. I will be going one weapon at a time. This will take up most of the next few weeks' posts.

I will start with the assault rifles, just to keep things neat and tidy.

Chill

P.S. I probably won't go in order because of the whole PS3 situation I'm having.

RE5: DLC/ Round Two Review

Thanks to the helpfulness of a kind friend, I was able to play Desperate Escape. It comes with the Resident Evil 5: Gold Edition, or sold as an add-on for $4.99 on PSN.

Well, the verdict is in: Desperate Escape will not disappoint. This add-on takes you through what Jill Valentine and Josh Stone were doing during Chapter 6 of the campaign. It shows how they both fought their way to Chris and Sheva at the end of the game.

Unlike the other add-on, Lost in Nightmares, this adventure is very action and combat heavy, which is not a bad thing at all. The consant fighting and thinking will keep you on the edge of your couch. Some fights are amazing, and all are fun.

Although the voice acting isn't great, it's better than LiN. Jill, Josh, and Doug all seem like they are real people, not video game characters. The graphics also add to the experience, and the epic RE5 soundtrack is still as good as ever.

Capcom did it; they created a fun adventure that doesn't get boring after five minutes. If it's you first run-through, play on at least Veteran difficulty, because the actual adventure is rather easy. Then again, this is coming from a seasoned Resident Evil veteran.

Bottom line: this is a great add on. The action, fighting, music, and experience is great. I highly recommend it. $4.99 is pretty much a deal for an adventure this good. Props, Capcom.

Bad News

So,

My computer had a huge meltdown because of a shitload of random files and stuff. So, I can't make my guide until Word is redownloaded. Until then, I will be thinking of ideas for the new series.

Also, I saw the "making of" vid for Halo: Reach. I am seriously considering buying an Xbox, just for that game.

MW2 Guide On Its Way!

So,

I'm going to make another Modern Warfare 2 guide to redeem myself. This one will be about the Riot Shield.

..Yeah...

I know I seem like a fucking hipocrit, but it's what I want to do. Besides, ANYTHING could be better than my old piece-o'-shit MW2 guide. Stay tuned for more info.

I will be starting it sometime this week, but it won't be done for a while. I'm really gonna take my sweet time with this one. Tell me your opinions, guys. Feedback is essential to me. It gives me a good guess at what my fans want, so send me some opinions.

Chill

P.S. Once I get a new PS3, I will be hosting some fun matches for my fans. My first will be a sniper run.

New Youtube Series

So,

In my last entry, I described a series I would make on Youtube. It will focus mainly on a small office. The people will argue and bicker constantly.

The main character is Joe, a guy with a good heart, and is liked by everyone in the office except for Jeffery, who hates him for unknown reasons. There is also Bill, who is annoying as hell, and his adversary Bob, who tries to stop him almost all the time. Bill is a good person though.

There will be other characters, but I don't have them yet. This is just a rough outline. I do know that there will be a boss and secretary, and a few other side characters.

The series will actually be divided into three seperate subseries; one will be a sketch-like series, another will have a storyline, and the third will focus on other characters besides Joe, mainly Bill.

Also, instead of drawing, I will do something else. I don't really have an idea yet, but I would like some feedback. This is purely an idea, and I need to know if that's something you guys want. Just send me an e-mail stating your opinion. Thanks a lot and stay tuned.

MW2 DLC News and Other Updates

So,

I just got news from a website that I usually visit that there will be five new maps for Modern Warfare 2 in the new DLC. Two of them are from COD4, which are Crash and Overgrown (snipers, rejoice!). The other three are named Storm, Complex, and Compact.

Another new addition is a new game type: Global Thermonuclear War. The objective is to capture a nuke, which will explode when captured. It sounds pretty crappy in my opinion, but I shouldn't be the one talking after my MW2 epic fail.

Unfortunately, Xbox always gets the good stuff first. The DLC will be released a whole MONTH early for Xbox users, which sucks pretty damn hard. Who was the smart little shit that came up with that idea? One of the guys that just got fired from Activision, I hope.

By the way, Alice in Wonderland is a pretty good movie. The last third is battle-heavy and kinda sucks, but the rest of the movie is OK, except for Johnny Depp. It looked like he didn't even want to be there.

I can't wait for Clash of the Titans or the new Tron movie. I'm the kind of guy who likes action movies that make sense, unlike Transformers. Michael Bay is pretty much a guy who thought, "You know what? I think I can make a retarded movie good by adding lots of really big fireball explosions!" He's really an asshole, is what he is.

Anyway, I'm thinking about making a series on Youtube. It will be about an office, and the people (probably drawn) that work there. I will give the full scoop in my next entry, so stay tuned.

Chill

P.S. For those of you who didn't get the MW2 epic fail thing earlier, I made a MW2 weapons guide which was absolute shit. I took it off of GameFAQs, but NeoSeeker has it on their site. I should warn you: it sucks really badly. There was an eight-page message board about how bad it was on GameFAQs, so only look if you want to see how bad I was back then.

P.P.S. I might be making another guide for MW2, another weapons guide. This one
probably won't suck as hard as my previous failure. No promises though. It's kinda hard to make a comeback after that.

RE5: DLC/ Round One Review

Even though the game was mediocre at best, I still kept Resident Evil 5, hoping that it would somehow redeem itself. Capcom has made an attempt, with the new downloadable content, Lost in Nightmares.

To be honest, I love Capcom. Resident Evil 4 was THE best game on the PS2, and I thought RE5 would top it. Unfortunately, it wasn't as good. The co-op was terrible, the AI was ungodly, and merchant went away, replaced by a stupid menu.

Lost in Nightmares tried to get RE5 back on track, and it failed. Lost in Nightmares takes place in the Spencer Estate, during the flashback Chris had of when Jill "died". To put it simply, you run around the whole place solving tedious puzzles and killing Executioner-like things. What the developers did, in my opinion, is took the mansion from RE1 and made it modern. It was the laziest thing I've seen in a while.

The shitty AI is back, because Jill can't assist you whatsoever. She constantly gets in your way and wastes ammo, just like the devil herself, Sheva Alomar.

The only enemies are these things called the Guardians of Insanity. They are pretty much Executioners with less health. They are easy to take down and make the game less scary to be honest. One of the diaries in the DLC is an exact replica of the entry from RE1, so I thought there would be zombies, but no.

The only reason I didn't stop playing RE5 was the good thing about the DLC: Mercenaries Reunion. That is very enjoyable, especially with Barry Burton. Excella is one of the few Mercenaries characters that I don't like. Both Sheva and Chris are great, especially with the shiny new Gatling Gun.

The DLC is a bittersweet thing. $4.99 pays for Mercenaries, but Lost in Nightmares just isn't good. Once I get my PS3, I will probably review Desperate Escape. I really hope it's good, cause Lost in Nightmares just didn't cut it for me.

BC2 and MW2

So,

From what I've heard, Battlefield: Bad Company 2 has a better multiplayer than MW2. From all of the opinions and facts, I think they're correct.

I will be getting Bad Company 2 soon, but not until I get a new PS3. My old one fried out, so I'm saving up for a new one. It will take me a few weeks, so I won't be on PSN until then.

Believe me, PS3 is great, but I would also like an Xbox 360. The Wii isn't exactly great, but Mad World is pretty sweet. No More Heroes and Darkside Chronicles aren't bad either. Anything with Leon Kennedy in it is good.

Other than that, I can't wait for God of War 3 and the new Medal of Honor. 2010 is the year of gaming, apparently, and I can't wait to celebrate.

To wrap it up, not much new. New York hasn't gotten as much snow as D.C. which blows my fucking mind. My city is huge on snow, so it's pretty weird if Texas gets more snow than me.

New Home!

My site has been simplified into a regular blog. Easy transition, cause my links are right on the side. This is where I will be making all of my new posts. So... good.
