death to master chief

Still working on halo:combat evolved. Iv never been much of a halo fan, so never quite got used to the style of combat in it. Though i think that goes completely out the window when legendary mode is activated. One thing iv noticed though and its really beginning to piss me off. Is the fact the friendly AI for the troops that come to "help" you don't get any better as the difficulty is raised. They re fucking retarded in easy mode, but so is the enemy AI. Who will let you run circles around them standing struck by the aura master chief emanates. In hard mode even the lil grunts eat sleep and breath KILL MASTER CHIEF. Apparently though, the friendly marine soldiers who came into help me still thought this was a training mission. All ten of my allies were brutally murdered in all about .05 seconds. Its lead to the point iv forgotten i even receive "help" from these people.

      For some nostalgic reasons i wont go into. Once fall hits i always reinstall stronghold. i Still don't know why i do this, but i do. I play through the campaign, and i inevitably end up messing around in the map editor which doubles as a free open realm slaughter house. let me give you an example
 *hmmmm. Lets put a bunch of deer here next to these trees. Wow that looks great. ok now lets put some wolves in the middle of their herd. Oh lets see what happens to these now very full wolves when BEARS are put next to them. Now lets see if these bears have room for some ladder men. Oh shit bears taste armored steel knights.
    Its actually a really pathetic yet hilarious sight to see, and alot o f fun will be had tonight. In the meantime. Back to halo.

My pizza is cold

Too soon school will be starting, and il quickly find my time for much of anything will be greatly reduced. I will be making it a point to continue with vindictus. If it'll let me actually play for more than 3 hours at a time, without needing to patch. Damn beta's all to hell. All frustration aside it is a genuinely fun game to play. The source engine makes it immensely entertaining. Just picture me tossing chunks of a pillar at mobs, or beating a boss monster over the head with a plank of wood. i think i wont ever run out of random pieces of rubble to dispatch baddies with, and therefore will forever hold my attention. Im still attempting to beat halo:combat evolved on legendary. a feat im taking in slow toddler sized morsels, or else the rage of how utterly fucking ridiculously hard it is will consume me whole. I also eventually would like to finally finish Torchlight. a really fun diablo look alike. with the releases of the now announced gran turismo 5, and dirt 3 around next years bend. i see myself spending alot of time behind the virtual wheel. which will produce mass amounts of nerd rage and ranting, much to your un ejoyment. so definitely stick around for a few months, as for short term rants and rage. completely off topic from gaming, though many, many people can connect with me on this one. i really, really hate freshman. i wont go into details, other than they invade my place of work like a horde of hormonal horny retarded ass dip shits, and there is no escape. god help me.

saevio vindictus dat

     Well we were told the open beta for vindictus would start at midnight today. Its now 4:30 in the afternoon, and after the page had crashed, forum posts, and jaime's threats to repeatedly punch all nexon staff members in the dick for each hour gone by its not open. Its STILL not up. Frankly were starting to get a little fed up, and impatient. We can only spam F5 for so long, at least until the site crashes again. At this point though i think I'm ready to take a road trip  to the nexon company's HQ and start some dick punching. I never heard of the game until a few days ago. apparently jaime had been looking forward to it for quite some time (fyi jaime is one of my room mates) after checking it out I'm quite excited to play it. Though id be playing it right now, but of course not. Guess all i can do is spam F5.

Combat de-evolved

So in preparation for reach coming out tomorrow night, iv been playing the first halo for the last few hours. As i mentioned in my previous post iv never really liked any of the games after the first one. the story in my opinion turned to shit, the game play even worse. to the point when 3 came out i had problems withstanding my gag reflex when i started playing it. The fact that reach is returning to the game play style (with the addition of the armor abilities of course) and the story that got me hooked in the first place. So i dug around till i found the first game for PC, installed it and proceeded to play it till 5 in the morning. and plan to do so again tonight. My goal is to beat it before tomorrow night, just so i can beat reach in one night co-op. needless to say I'm looking froward to the next few days. Which for not being an x-box fan much less a halo fan, has me just as surprised as my friends. Either way good or bad, I'm going to play it. I'm going to beat it. Then I'm gonna rant about it. For with every good game. comes a hardcore rant. Which reminds me the amount of rage that will be induced when i start up FF13 again in a few weeks. Trust me on that one. You'll get to hear all about it.
    enjoy your evening people I'm going to have me a good game of ZOMBIES!!! the board game, which if you haven't heard or played it before. Do it. Its amazing

Reach

Today iv been informed my room mate has pre ordered halo:reach. Now I'm not the biggest halo fan, i liked the first game alot and must have clocked in lover a hundred hours worth of play between me and my friends. Iv always thought though after the seconds in the series the game went far downhill, slamming at the bottom of my respect-o-meter with the third game. I never had a chance to play ODST, so my opinion is worthless for it. I traded in my x-box for a PS3 two years ago, so for the most part xbox only titles never really caught my interest. Until lately that is, moving in with a guy who owns one himself i now have the ability to play those titles and he can play PS3 titles. I think its a fairly win win situation. So after reading several previews, watched every game play trailer, and falling in love with the live action trailers (which if a live action halo movie was anything like those trailers id sell my soul to see it) I'm now officially completely stoked to play this game. So, my conclusion?
Only three more fucking days.

The count down

Today is not much of a rant, but more of a nerd confession of his love for guildwars, and its coming sequel.
I haven't played guild wars for too long compared to many others, but iv grown to absolutely love the game. After playing the game of and on for about a year. Then one day i went online and saw the announcement for guildwars two and forever afterwards followed the games' production. Its been close to three years now, and its nearly finished. With every new release of class info i have massive nerdogasms, and watch the videos at least six times over. Its come to the point of near fanaticism, and I'm getting really tired of waiting for this damn game to come out! It takes all the shitty parts of the first game, and makes it better! Every single piece of game play info that's been released just adds onto the amazing qualities this game has, and looks utterly gorgeous. Point being i cannot wait for this game to come out already.

Oh. i guess i do have a rant for you today. I don't ever EVER want to rez in guildwars right next to a level 30 boss and 5 level 25 mobs. ever....ever again minus 60 stats in shivering peaks isn't the greatest. all i have to say is after a good ten minutes of pure rage and frustration i finally killed him. Good game, Goodnight.

It has begun!

So iv been meaning to start a blog up for quite some time but have been faaaar too lazy to start one up. Iv finally kicked my ass into doing it though so here you go.

    In the beginning there was nothing. Then came the anonymous god who gave the world such things like Magic the gathering, WoW free servers, and d&d and low and behold amongst all the instantaneous bullshit created coffee formed as well, and the world was never again the same.
   Over 9000 years later yours truly comes into the scene. Full of  nerd rage, angst, and much butthurt. determined to wade through the field of noobs BS builds and decks and retarded DM's and writers block to have even just a minuscule amount of entertainment, and the end product is now here for your enjoyment. so for your enjoyment i bring you, your first rant.
 
    Duke Nukem Forever. I really don't think i need to explain a whole lot here the amount of rage this game has caused by not doing anything at all! It has sat there. Teasing every damn gamer since 98. Every other year it seems they announce they're continuing with it, then 6 months later cancelled....AGAIN. This pattern has continued for over a decade to the point any discussion of the game brings laughter to many, especially every fucking anon. For years iv completely written the game off, just to find out that not only did they announce the game continuing, but people got to fucking play the game iv waited a decade to finally play. Add the fact that if i had decided to buy my ticket to pax a week earlier before they sold out, id have played it. but NO. of course not, and there you go theres my rant of the day enjoy bitches <3
