I Completely Disagree!

I was on yahoo yesterday and I saw a rather interesting news article in their gaming section! It was about the top 5 games that should retire. The first one was sonic the hedgehog which I completely agree with. It has been going on too long and its not really going nowhere. I think that they should retire even if it was for just a few years so they could completely rethink it and come back with something that has never been done in the sonic franchise. Second they listed the Tony Hawk pro skateboarding series. I also agree with this one. I didn't become a gamer until the PlayStation era so I don't remember a time without these games. They are just old news, its enough already! The third game listed was the Assassins Creed franchise. When I saw it I absolutely could not believe it. Sure we are on number four now but every new game gets better. The first was crap to the second, the second was crap to the third, and the third was crap to the fourth. I am sure that when they release the fifth one this summer or whenever they said, it will make the fourth one look like absolute crap. I honestly don't remember the fourth one but i think it was one of those anime games that I don't play. The last one they listed was the Sims. I do and I don't agree with this one. I agree because they release way too many add-ons between games. There is going to be 6 in march with the addition of showtime and honestly I think five was too many. The reason I don't agree with yahoo's article is because it is still a fun game that makes it easy to waste a few hours tortur....... I mean caring for your Sims. Anyway please tell me what you think and tell me about any other games that you feel should retire. Oh one more thing! I know my posting has been erratic lately but I got an English Bulldog puppy for Christmas and long story short, he is a lot more work than anticipated! I'll post a pic of him later today!

Possible Game Changer?

Today I wanted to give my views on something else you guys might have heard of! Alienware's console sized gaming pc. When I first saw it my first thought was "This is going to be a total game changer!" Finally the console wars won't be just between Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft! I thought that if they could make it affordable it would significantly raise PC gaming popularity. Unfortunately once it came out and I saw it's features I was extremely disappointed and then I noticed the price... For $700 all you get is an Intel i3 processor, 4GB of RAM, and 1TB of hard drive space. Sure 1TB of HDD space is a lot but not even that makes this computer worth the $700 they are charging for it! You can get an HP slim series with an i5 Intel processor, 6GB of RAM, and 1TB of HDD space for $640, thats $60 less for twice the features! Even if all you want is what is inside the alienware pc you can order the HP slim with the exact same things and it will only come out to $550! That is $150 cheaper than the alienware pc! If you want a true gaming pc and your on a budget for just $730 you can get an amazing Intel gaming Pc from iBuypower. Anyway I would love to hear your opinions! I forgot how fun blogging is! I will probably post again tomorrow!

Valentines Day is Going to be EPIC!

I'm sure you have all heard but I'm so excited that I thought I would write about it anyway! Nicki Minaj is releasing her sophomore album, Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded, on Valentines day! Also coming out on that day is the new Twisted Metal game which I am equally excited about! Between the two I think my head will explode from the sheer awesomeness that this Valentines day is going to bring! OH! I almost forgot!! DO NOT preorder twisted metal! If you preorder it you will not receive the voucher for the PS2 classic Twisted Metal Black! Sure you will get Axel but they plan to release him as a DLC later in the month and I am sure he will be less expensive than buying both twisted metal games separate!

 

Worst Two Months of My Life!!!

If you ever followed me you would know that I've been gone for two months! Those two months were the worst months of my entire life!

October is notorious for being a month filled with bad luck but never in my life has it affected me like it did this October! On the very first day of the month I got sick with the flu. I very quickly noticed that this wasn't an ordinary flu. Usually when I get the flu it lasts a day or two and I never throw up or anything but this flu lasted a whole week and I was throwing up almost every day! On the eighth when I finally got over it I was on my computer down in my living room when suddenly the smoke detector started going off upstairs. I ran up to see what it was and as I got there I say my WiFi router explode in a cloud of smoke! I ran into the bathroom and wet the hand towel and quickly ran back and threw it over the now burning router! Thankfully it put out the router immediately. I do have a desktop PC but I don't use nor do I like it very much ever since I got my Mac Pro! That was the first ever in home fire Ive experienced in my life! On Monday the tenth me and a couple of my friends went to one of the cool local bar/restaurants  to have some fun! We all love the place and have been going to it for years! As usual we all got one of their famous cheeseburgers and a few drinks! Within minutes I knew something was wrong! I ran to the bathroom and not a minute too soon! I threw up what seemed like all the food i had eaten that day and my friends were not far behind! I got home home and called the doctor only to find out what I already knew... I had food poisoning. I've only had it one other time in my life, when i was 6, and it was awful! Not surprisingly it was just as bad if not worse than the first time! Like the flu it also lasted a whole week and the vomiting never ceased!

I was in a really bad funk the whole month of November mainly because it is when my grandfather passed away! My dad was a marine and he was away a lot so I used to hang with my grandpa a lot to help fill that void! It was two years since he died and his death both shattered and brought together the whole family. Other than that I guess it was a pretty good month! December on the other hand was freaking awesome! I was on vacation practically the whole month so I didn't really have time to post then but now I'm back, I'm motivated, and I'm ready to restart this blog full time!

Breaking News!!!

Wow It was a day filled with surprises! Not only has Apple released an iPhone 4s when everyone expecting an iPhone 5 I have just received word that Steve Jobs has DIED!

There are little improvements made on the new iPhone. Only two hardware changes in all! They added the A5 processor and they upgraded to an 8 mpx camera! To some this may come as a disappointment but I don't really see that way. I'm just so so about it to be honest. The biggest change came to the software but I will talk about all that tomorrow!

Steve Jobs DIED! I just cant believe it! It was apparently caused by his long battle with cancer. That will take some time to sink in :(   in the meantime try to stay happy -_- To all you crazy Apple freaks you need to calm down! So what if you didn't get you precious iPhone 5! I will come just be patient, I wanted it too but you don't see me freaking out about it!!
