Apple sucks.. Love my iPad...lol

March 21st 2012 22:57
Been away for awhile cuz i've been a little busy gaming on my brand spanking new "iPad whatever the fuck number"... the newest i guess... since they wont call it an ipad 3, dickheads...lol... I;m not an apple fanboy by any means, i actually hope steve jobs is burning in hell for his companies business practices, but i gotta tell ya, these new ipads rock...lol.. i had an ipad 1, and kept seeing app after app not support my pad anymore, so i made the upgrade, and although i hear its not a big change from the 2, I'm blown away by the difference from my old pad... i love this new thing... i wont bore you with all the specs and all, but its pretty hardcore for gaming, and anyone who says this thing isnt a viable gaming platform is pissed cuz he doesnt have one..lol.. games on this thing rock.. infinity blade 2 still worked on my old pad, but on this its killer, and i've been playing this game called galaxy on fire 2 HD, which is like privateer and ELITE from back in the days of wing commander and the open world trading space flight sim... its that good and plays just like those old PC games... i'm loving it... then i was dabbling in real racing HD which looks and plays even smoother than forza 4 on the xbox, yup its that good... so between those games and watching movies on this thing, i've been pretty busy...lol.. i must say tho there was an amzing SHMUP that came out today on XBLA called sine mora, a beautiful and hard as hell 2D bullet hell shooter with amazing amazing graphics... sets the bar for what shooters should look like from now on... so along with recommending you pick yourself up a new iPad, download that game, you'll love it...lol... dont hate me too much for being a traitor to my console, which will always be my first gaming love, but this ipad is one hell of a sexy fling on the side...lol... peace out and play nice kiddies...

WARP on XBLA is awesome

February 15th 2012 15:05
Hey kiddies, just poppin in for a quickie update and will be back again later or tomorrow for a more in depth or just slightly more detailed review of these 2 new games i got today...lol... First off, Epic Quest, a new pinball FX2 table is awesome... awesome isnt an adequate term to describe the awesomeness contained in this pinball table... describing it as a table doesnt do it justice either... they managed to merge RPG elements and looting and levelling up into a pinball table.. more on this later cuz after my quickie on WARP, i'm getting back to the couch for more gaming, bitches, i feel like a kid on x-mas morning just getting some great new toys i'm all excited about..lol... cuz thats how this morning was... last nite when i wrote my blog explaining the game i'm workin on, i had no clue what was in store for today... and ooooooohhhh boy am i giddy with or excitement or what?...lol... WARP is the XBLA game for today, wednesday is their new game day... i think this is the first title in the summer of arcade series, and i heard somewhere that this year wasnt gonna be that good... well lemme tell you, if todays game is any indication of whats coming, this is a damn good start...lol.. maybe i'm over-medded up or something, but i'm having a blast with these 2 games today... i'm having so much fun with this WARP game, and i cant wait to get back to the Epic Quest pinball game..lol... ok, well i told ya it was gonna be a quickie and i'm back to gaming, so here it is, a quickie brekdown on WARP..lol.. you're this little alien guy thats trying to escape this lab where human scientists are trying to do experiments on you and you're trying to escape... there ya go... quickie breakdown of the game concept..lol... but the process of escaping is a blast cuz i'm just learning my powers as i go along, and it just so happens i can "warp" into humans bodies and make them explode, ala explosion man...lol... but its fun i tell you.... fun fun fun... FUN FUN FUN I SAY!!!!...lol... ok, back to playing these little gems, be back soon, peace out and play nice kiddies...

Been busy makin a game

February 15th 2012 00:12
Hey folks, sorry for the absence... if you've been to my linked blog, then you'll know what i've been busy with... Been workin on a new board game idea i was inspired with like a month ago, and i've been busy doin that, and making logos for it too...lol... if you know me, i'm famous for spending more time on the logo than spending time makin the actual game...lol... But i've actually got a lot done on it, maybe more than like 85% done... I just need to make the monster dice, monster cards and the event cards.. and the art for the character sheets too... oh yeah, and print the rules... the rulebook is alot of work... But this game is gonna be awesome... Its a dungeons and dragons flavored board game for the non D& crowd... more for the casual board gamer, not the diehard nerds that are the usual d& fans... they would like it too, but its gonna be more accessible and easy to play... more like the old TSR game dungeon and elements of yahtzee... i k now that sounds retarded, but not givin too much away...lol... ts called Ardent Quest and its gonna be awesome...lol... Go to my linked blog to for a sneak peek and to see the logo...lol... Not much new on the gaming side, just been playin a lot of Halo and rock band 3 like every day in between workin on my board game... nothing new, just my old fave games, but we'll see whats new tomorrow... peace out and play nice kiddies...

Been gaming in iPad, sorry...lol

January 29th 2012 02:27
Hey guys, sorry for slackin in my xbox gaming, actually been playin alot of Halo lately and MW3 cuz the 2 new maps dropped for ELITE members last week... that makes me happy i buckled and paid for the ELITE, cuz i havent heard when the maps will be available for the public yet, and the new maps are AWESOME!!!... any readers who have modern warfare3, definitely check these maps out, only 2 this time, but worth it... other than that, been playin alot of games on my iPad the past few days... anyone who says the iPad isnt a viable gaming platform is just a console fanboy, cuz the games on this rock... been playing 2 casual games alot, scramble with friends and words with friends and zynga poker, but i also have real racing HD and it can actually compete with the forza series and gran turismo for arcadey driving realism with accelerometer controls... its that good... plus i got this awesome new game, Frederic - resurrection of music, like guitar hero but on a piano playing classic Chopin piano pieces done with modern spins on them... so much fun i actually played it thru like 3 times...lol...I'm a hardcore gamer... probly one of the most hardcore gamers you're ever gonna meet, and i'll game on anything, and this iPad is a definitely cool gaming experience and a viable platform... probly closest to PC gaming as opposed to a console, and i own a nintendo DS and a PSP, and out of the 3 devices, i think the iPad is my favorite for on the go gaming, plus i can watch movies and read my books on it... I friggin love this thing... its got a beautiful 10 inch screen for chrissakes!...lol.. and i love the PSP, but sony dropped the ball on supporting that thing and the UMV format... Thats why i have no interest in the nintendo 3DS or the PS Vita... I'm just sticking with the iPad as my portable gaming device of choice, its that good... if you guys can afford one, get an iPad or iPad2, its one of the best entertainment investments i ever made... i love it that much...lol... and thanx again for checkin out my linked blog, been postin on there alot lately and hopefully will continue to keep postin, so keep visiting there regularly for more fun shit...lol... peace out and play nice kiddies..

Kinect sports season 2

January 23rd 2012 18:45
Had this game awhile, and been lovin it... even more now with the release of 2 new DLC packs, one for golf and one for skiing... golf gives us a full 18 hole course, and skiing we get 3 new night time tracks... and i love playin in the snow at nite from when i was a kid...lol... All the sports covered on this one are done really well with tight controls fun minigames, especially darts.. that ones my fave here... so if you have a Kinect and and need some good games, definitely give this a try... and Haunt, which i'm still playing and really like alot.. I got a comment from a reader who mentioned he was gonna be banned like i was awhile ago, and i commented back, but not sure if i did it right..lol... but i'll sum it up short.. Microsoft tech support is the most inept i've ever dealt with, the way they deal with everything, and they are powerless to retract a ban... trust me, i spent hours makin call after call hopin to get someone who knew what they were doin or talkin about, and all i got was frustrated... the bottom line is you just have to tough it out.. i know it sucks, and they suck, but thats just the ugly truth... so buck up little camper, your ban will go by fast...lol... microsoft tech support sucks so bad, they don't even have the new dashboard, and they somehow erased my points and my purchase history from teir end... i still had my history on my end, but they didnt, thats how inept they are... so do yourself a favor, never call microsoft tech support, simple as that... well i'm gonna go and squeeze in a little gaming before i go for my MRI of my lumbar spine today, i know, good times...lol... so peace out and play nice kiddies...

Playin a game called Haunt right now, like really RIGHT now, its paused while i write this blog...lol... its a kinect game and i downloaded it today, was an XBLA title, 10 bucks and well worth it, i'm having a blast with it, so i definitely recommend it if you have a kinect.. really responsive and tight controls, and i'm a sucker for haunted house games, so i'm lovin it...lol.. another new game came out today, Scary Girl, but i didnt get that yet, maybe i'll download it later... but after that clusterfuck of a game Amy last week, i'm being careful, so maybe i'll just try the trial first, but it looked cool... been busy makin those little fuggum toys so havent been playin too many games, just halo reach and MW3 the other day a little bit... so i'm gonna get back to my haunt game now, peace out and play nice kiddies...and go to my linked blog too!!!...lol
