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!!

Kirby Mass Attack Review

Kirby Mass Attack is a great game with an unfortunately horrible story line! The game starts off in the typical Kirby fashion. You see Kirby relaxing on a hill when suddenly the bad guy comes in. In this story he is a Skull King or something like that. At this point anything could happen because even though all Kirby stories are the same, they all have their subtle differences. The Skull King pulls out his magic staff and uses it to split Kirby into 10 substantially weaker Kirbys. One by one he starts destroying the Kirbys and with a last gleam of hope Kirby's heart star appears and guides him to safety! Now it is your mission to rid the land of the Skull King menace!

The game play is, as usual, the best part. You start out with just one Kirby but the more fruit you collect the more Kirbys you will have. You dash around destroying enemies and collecting coins. Kirby comes across both old and new enemies that are as challenging as ever. there are some obvious advantages to having more than one Kirby but its the disadvantages that give the game most of its challenge! To start, keeping all those Kirbys together is a challenge on its own but when your trying to avoid an enemy's strike its a whole other story. There wasn't much of a tutorial and for me this was a good thing because I hate when a game makes you go through a huge tutorial. Other than that the graphics are as expected and the sounds are generic. Crappy as its flaws may be it is still a great game that I'm sure will keep me playing for hours to come. I rate it a 7 out of 10 for its childish charm and fun game play!

Rage?!

I went ahead and decided to pre-order Rage at Best Buy yesterday and was shocked to hear that it comes out on tuesday which is tomorrow!! I had no idea it was coming out so soon! I thought for sure that it was coming out in December for some reason!! It's a little embaracing that I didn't know when its coming out! I always know when games are coming out and I'm really good at guessing if it doesn't have a date yet so this is kinda awkward!! Anyways it looks like a great game and I'm just glad I wasn't too late to pre-order it because I really wanted those extras!! If you haven't pre-ordered it yet than it's too late but if you have Congratulations!! Your copy will be ready for you tomorrow unless your going to a midnight event in which case it will be ready tonight!! Happy Gaming!!

Battlefield 3 Open Beta!!

The Battlefield 3 Open beta finally came out on the 25th of last month and it is amazing!! Honestly, even after loads of people telling me that I should play them, I have never played any of the Battlefield games so I'm not going to give you a huge opinion on it because I really have nothing to base it off of. As far as graphics and all that stuff goes, I got to say that it looks pretty real. It was like I was really there. When it comes to game play I cant really tell you. The mechanics are nice and smooth and the animations are, while still glitchy, also nice and clear. Graphically it has to be one of the best games I have ever seen! If you haven't tried it already I strongly urge you to. It is an open beta so you don't need an invite and it is on all platforms except the Wii of course!
