Skull, Paragon of Dynamis Excellence!

PhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucket

Skull just made the 5/5 club about 2 weeks after me! (ill post pics of us later)

enjoy it buddy!

Jump In!

so what do you guys think of the new me?

ok so its not the NEW me but it is my avatar on xbox live.

for those of you who dont know Xbox Live was recently improved.

the Dashboard has a new look that features stuff like comunity spotlight and upcoming events as well as all the old normal stuff.

you can even link your gamertag to your netflix account and watch streaming movies

if you dont already have a netflix they give you a free trial but i dont know how long it is.

and of course most notable change are the avatars.

you can customize them and are pretty much the same thing as a Mii (of Nintendo Wii fame)

and when you want to play a game together with your buddies all your avatars join an xbl party. this way its basically easier to join their games in progress or isolate voice chat so only they can hear you.

i gotta say this update has been quite a blast!

but if all of this is too overwhelming for you.... just press the Xbox guide button and it bring up a small version of the old Dashboard menu blades.... just in case!

And SPD is his Game!

Heheh ok im going to kiss a little ass here so be warned.

i picked up this little a ditty a few days ago and my first impressions were awesome enough as it is.

what is it you ask?

its an RPG

wtf?

a Sonic RPG?

yes! Arr Pee Gee!

well its developed by BioWare. so that in itself should tell you quite a bit about it.

if that DOESNT, BioWare are the folks that brought us such awesomely awesome games as Mass Effect, Jade Empire, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 1&2, Baldur's Gate, Never Winter Nights, and lots of others.

first off the list of playable characters is pretty awesome. you can have 10 playable characters to choose from, from Sonic and Tails at first to any of the following through the course of the game: Knuckles, Amy Rose, Big the Cat, Shadow the Hedgehog, Rogue the Bat, Dr. Eggman/Robotnik (yeah weird huh?), Cream the Rabbit, E-123 Omega, and the new character Shade the Echidna. the game even features cameos by Vector the Crocodile and G.U.N. 

and of course the game takes full advantage of the DS's touch screen technology by using the stylus to navigate through game menus, combat menus, activate special attacks called POW moves and move on the map.

the game even goes so far to incorporate each of Team Sonic's special abilities. i refer to these as move abilities because accessing certain parts of the map require certain move abilities. Sonic's speed allows him to use ramps and loop-the-loops and move quickly through pipes and such. Tails, Cream, Rogue and even Knuckles to an extent can fly (or in Knuckles' case, glide). of course Tails will get the ability to travel very far while Knuckles (i think) is stuck with only Fly level 1. other move abilities are Warp, Invulnerable, Climb, and Smash. all will be needed at one point or another to access 100% of the map and almost always for quests.

its got a great story in my opinion, dealing with (without giving anything really away) a new menace threatening to steal the Master Emerald. even Dr. Robotnik/Eggman and Shadow are forced to play for Team Sonic to get rid of this new evil!

and of course as an RPG it does revolve around battle sequences and gaining EXP.  when you do level you are allowed to put an extra point into their stats to further customize the character, and you are able to spend 5 points to puchase POW abilities. some of these abilities even involve other characters (so plan whos in your party well!) to do massive damage and even inflict special status effects!

and of course Sonic would be powerless without his Rings! only this time rings are used as currency, buy equipment, items, or save yourself from a gameover by paying with rings. some rings will even ressurect your characters mid battle (like a standard resurection item), other items include things to temporarily boost stats, HP items, POW points items, and items to sure status effects. and not be left out Chao are in this game as well, only this time they can be assigned to specific characters to enhance that characters abilties, stats, you name it. there are 40 different Chao in the game each with a different effect and will hatch and grow automatically once youve found the Chao eggs in each landscape.

all of that makes this game awesome, but there are a couple snags that keep it from being totally awesome.

first off is the signiture BioWare dialog. although its great in other games by these guys, the dialog choices usually serve to determine your characters alignment or personality... they dont in this game. dialog choices are just for fun or for advancing conversation more quickly, or finding out more information at times.

the only other gripe i have is that the game is a bit too easy. i didnt have a hard time until i did a quest several levels early, and even then i was able to do it in a try or two. as long as you are remotely close to the level you are supposed to be while doing missions or quests you'll never really be in danger. i am of course only about 75% of the way into the game so im hoping it gets "pleasently challenging" sometime soon.

all in all im pretty pleased with the game and its kept me pretty involved since i got it. its defintaly worth a play if you like any 2 of the following: RPGs, Sonic the Hedgehog, DS games, breathing, women.

My GF is an AWESOME GF! pt.2

Well.... yet again. i have to speak of how totally wicked awesome my GF is.

y'see... we celebrated our 18 month anniversary just wednesday.

i bought her a very nice Citizen Eco-drive stainless steal and Swarsky Crystal watch. i ended up paying way less than i expected to

thanks to her, and a little luck :)

and for me.... she pulled me aside and asked me what i would rather have...

a PS3 or a Xbox 360 Elite.

Wow

no really, WOW.

she told me if i didnt mind combining this gift with my b-day/christmas gift i could have one of these magical consoles.

now i already have a 20gig Xbox system from way back.

like initial launch way back

needless to say its in poor health. 

all those launch Xboxes had some sorta issue, and mine still works but barely. 

it actually freezes up.

no real red ring though

so i could replace that, with its already full hard drive and dimishing health, with a crisp new (and black) 120 gig HDMI cable havin' Xbox 360 Elite or an 80 gig PS3.

what did i choose??


Oh yeah, you know it baby.

ok well i do have to say i own one PS3 game. do you know how many PS3 games im interested in owning?

one.

Metal Gear Solid 4.

thats pretty much it.

so to fix both my dying Xbox problem and my HDD space problem i went with the Elite.

lol i know Sony fanboys everywhere are cursing my name.

all in all though.... thanks my wonderful lover. you are indeed the best.

even better than Solid Snake!

(and thats saying alot!)

CNN projects Obama


No... its not *actually* official yet and you can make all the case you want but... things cant change too much.

and... im now listening to McCain's consession speech.

its a good one, i definatly have to applaud him for his grace and open-mindedness even in loss.

but overall... America has now done something incredible. 

ive seen global news coverage... and people are going nuts, this is a global event, really and truly.

now all hope turns to Obama, please let us all hope he can deliver what he says for the good of our nation.

Heres to the new president of the United Stated of America!

Fable-ulous!

Heheh. yes. i got it...


well as im sure you can assume... and assuming is for asses btw...

but yes you can guess im going to review the damn game now.

you were right!

does that happen often?

probably not... anyways

Fable II, sequel to the highly successful albiet lacking Fable for Xbox.

the shiney limited edition will look like this:


and contain this a download card for the "Otherworldly Download pack" which features the  "HAL" armor set and "Hal's Sword".

being the completely awesome epicness this game is this is what the Hal armor is:


hell yes.

Master Fucking Chief armor

what more do you want? sheesh.

oh yeah the other bonuses?

you also get access to the Halls of the Dead dungeon, (off the main pier in Bloodstone, look for a dive spot) and within that a legendary sword called "The Wreckager"

well anyways thats what ya get....

there was supposed to also be a mini hobbe figurine and a set of 4 or 5 Fable II tarot cards.

where those went i'll never know....

anyways... if youve played the first game i'll save ya some time.

Go Get This Game.

well that is if you like what the first had to offer but wanted more.

we ALL wanted more.

did you like owning a massive property empire in Fable? 

now you can own even more... and all your money is deposited directly to your characters every collection period! no more running!

did you like having one wife per city so no matter where you are you could always get some blacked out sex screen with some girl calling you norty?

you can save sex out of wedlock now! or if you do choose to get married you can even have children in Fable II, and not only that but watch that roving eye, cause if your wife(s) find out about mistresses/other families they'll give ya the ol heave ho!

speakin of sex outa wedlock, there are hookers in this game, but watch it cause sleepin with them skanks might result in getting an STD! and if that wasn't enough, you can even have sex with multiple men, women, or any combonation thereof! (theres even an achievement for it LOL)

did you like the morality system?

Fable II expands on it by having 2 distinct character aligntment bars Good/Evil and Morale/Corrupt. fall into any place on the two for a more descriptive character personality.

Emotes have been improved in Fable II also giving you more choices, and giving every NPC in the game 3 different ways to judge you: Love/Hate, Fear/Light Heartedness and Ugly/Beautiful

The fields and world are much much larger than the first Fable, about 10x more so as Lionhead states.

even battle affects you characters appearnce this time around. being defeated results in the appearence of permanent scars on your body... and villagers will even comment on them!

Get tattoos, haircuts, facial hair, make up, and a variety of clothing to upgrade your appearance! not only that but there are a variety of Dyes to change the color of anything you dont like, clothes included!

and quite possibly the biggest change to the game... mans best friend! (no not porn)



yep you have your own little doggie (i names mine Indiana)

he can bark to alert you if enemies are near, sniff out treasure chests you can't see, sniff out treasure buried in the ground, attack downed enemies to finish them off, distract enemies that may be trying to shoot you from a distance and even preform tricks to show off for the vilagers of albion. 

all in all this was a great game, with many things to do after you be the main story line and a great experience overall.

oh.

did i mention you can do CO-OP now?!

lol yup, over Xbox Live even.

you can even unlock achievements by watching your friend accomplishments if youre playing with him on his game.

what would i give this game? 

i'll give it an AWESOME/10

Hes a Dancing Queen?!

Forgive me for all that Dancer gibberish, i had to copypasta the DNC AF quests into my blog...

i did it cause FFXIclopedia is blocked on my work computer

damn thourough IT guys!

anyways so i got my DNC AF. 

it only took me 150k and 48 hours, all solo. 

with minimal playtime to boot

what about the AF3 quest you ask? 

haha look it up. its called "Comeback Queen"

well since then i finished gettin em, and i do have to say, that was the easiest full AF set i think ive ever gotten.

hell, even COR AF3 quest took a month to get people brave enough to head out to the ashu taliff.

so yeah, the AF story isnt bad, here are a few screenies. enjoy!

Year of the Reinvention -or- Change Ain't Just for Obama

Well well now... ive been a busy....

person.

i got myself a load of new songs, most of them just singles off upcomming albums.

theres definatly a trend going here.

and if you dont know what it is by now *eyes title* im not tellin ya...

seriously...

anyways! lets move on to it. i got alot to get through so im gonna be fairly consice.

first one is a new single called "Gives you Hell" by The All-American Rejects off their upcomming CD

Im actually a pretty big fan of these guys after i saw one of their live preformances (even if you are so-so about their songs these guys are a blast in concert. they play better in concert than they do on their CDs!)

they've always been the pinacle of summertime feel good rythems and good sometimes even laugh to yourself funny lyrics.

this single gives you more of that with a rather refined sound organization. hats off to the mixer and producer cause they really took what AAR does best and improved on it.

it takes failed past relationship, peppers in some cynical fork-tongued goodness, and has you bouncing to the beat all the while.

if this is any indication their really going to take their newer more organized sound and work magic with it... i can't for the album if im in store for more of this!


Im also a big fan of BoA a korean born J-pop star (shush all of you)

unfortunatly i really only have access to her EPs.

this is actually a single off one of her albums thats recently come out though, called "Eat You up"

the single is that is. 

Its no secret that BoA actually can speak pretty good english and it isnt the first time shes done it, but this song too is actually all in english.

but that combined with an american house style beat makes this song stand out from her previous stuff.

its not as good as some of the other songs of hers i own, but is still pretty good.

and it sounds incredible with my subwoofer ^^

her english is great though, and short of Utada Hikaru or Maaya Sakamoto, BoA's english vocals are very easy to understand and have almost no accent to them.

its yet another very dancy and singable song BoA.. what more can you ask for?


Ok... now its time for a couple by those F.O.B.

man what to say.

i mean its on par with some of the songs off their last album, but it is still so different in comparison.

some of my same gripes from my review of "I Don't Care" remain, although some lines are certainly quotable.

at certain times the band strikes a wonderful vocal range, hitting some lows and together with the beat bringing a very Depeche Mode feel to the song. 

hell the beat itself sounds like something out of a 80's synth rock/pop manual.

and no Fall Out Boy song would be complete with mondgreen of somekind lol. 

one line is either "Does your husband know the way that the sunshine bleeds from your wedding band" or Does your husband know the way that the sunshine gleams from your wedding band"

imho bleeds makes more sense but w/e

all in all i have to applaud what F.O.B. accomplishes... but i still miss what they brought to the table in years past.

theyre experimenting and theyre evolving, and most of all theyre growing.

and god damn the song is catchy



Another Fall Out Boy release off of Folie a Duex... "What a Catch, Donnie"

this one is even more different than the rest.

its a soulful balled like XO or Golden before it but its a little more difficult to get into.

i didnt particularly like Golden when i first heard it but it managed to grow on me somewhat

im not sure how much this one will grow on me.

not so say its not without merit. 

most notably the song replays lines from famous F.O.B. singles at the end of the song, like "Grand Theft Autumn/Where is your boy", "Sugar We're Goin' Down", "Dance, Dance", "This Ain't a Scene its an Arms Race", "Thks fr th Mmrs", and even from "Headfirst Slide into Cooperstown on a Bad Bet"

it even features some great lines, but all in all its the kind of song you end an album with

and according to Wikipedia's Folie a Duex page... its mid album.

can't say what they might be thinking but i guess we'll have to see how it plays out on the album.

heres to hoping.
 


KanYeWest. 

Kanye, Kanye, Kanye...

first off... its a great sounding song. 

trademark Kanye beat.

great subject matter

catchy

singable.

wait... singable?

yep... there is no rapping in this song.

isn't that odd... for a rapper to do?

i know hes borederline hip-hop/R&B... but he was still a rapper

nonetheless i cant really find a reason to not like the song. 

even the T-pain spin on his voice which i would normally complain about it is perfectly fine in the song

yes.... im weirded out at this strange turn of events in the Kanye saga... but its good.

i mean i think it may bring listeners to the table that aren't a big fan of his rap.

not to say he stands to lose fans of his college dropout record if he doesnt have some rapping on the LP. 

we'll just have to see. its a great song though



Now this one is a gem... a total gem. 

in basic premise its the entire Nightmare Before Christmas soundtrack covered by other artists... even the instrumental songs.

it really is a blast to listen to famous and or other artists take on the great works of Danny Elfman

and since this is a CD of various artists i'll give a quick rundown of each song so you'll know what youre getting into if you buy it

which you should

go buy it >.>

  1. Overture - Devotchka - Good! mix Danny Elfman and eatern european stlye poka music (its good, dont be afriad!)
  2. Opening - Danny Elfman - Good! hes no Price or Stewart but this is his baby and its good to hear him on the narration for once
  3. This is Halloween - Marilyn Manson - Great, same as the one on the 2 disc NBC soundtrack a year or so ago
  4. Jack's Lament - The All-American Rejects - Passable. i say this because they apply their own style wel enough, but they lose feeling in the sadder parts of the song. injecting your style is great, but dont lose the point of the song
  5. Doctor Finkelstien/In the Forest - Amiina - Good. its instrumental and sounds great, similar to th original but with a twist
  6. Whats This? - Flyleaf - fail. they miss the point of the song, once again injecting your style is great but dont lose the point of the song. its supposed to be about an inquizitive and exciting new thing jack discovers, and her vocals sound lazy and disintrested.
  7. Town Meeting song - The Polyphonic Spree - Fail. this song is simply painful to listen to
  8. Jack and Sally Montage - Viatamin String Quartet - Good! very faithful but a great way to listen to the song with just a dash of difference to make it interesting
  9. Jack's Obsession - Sparklehorse - Fail. also painful. its not only painful to listen to but breaks up the vocals making them awkward. ignores the feel of the original song too
  10. Kidnap the Sandy Claws - KoRn - Great! im not a fan of KoRn, in fact i actively dislike them. but i have to say they successfully add their own style without changing the song. good job
  11. Making Christmas - Rise Against - Great, same as above, they are decen about controlling their angst partailly without sounding foriegn to their natural style. they capture the intensity of jack in parts of the song, good job
  12. Nabbed - Yoshida Brothers - Great! almost completely different from the original but the Mandolin sounds incredible, more proof that different can still equal great
  13. Oogie Boogie's Song - Rodrigo y Gabriella - Great! with no words even! spanish guitars play all but 2 lines in the whole song, which are the only vocals. daring, bold, and different
  14. Sally's Song - Amy Lee - Great! worth buying the album for. Fiona Apple's version was good but her vocal style can sometimes be too morose. Amy captures the intensity of Sally's doubts without making her sound suicidal. and shes got some pipes on her too
  15. Christmas Eve Montage - RJD2 - Great, a treat to listen to, a DJ doing a remix of the song making it seem very edgy, yet faithful. i can listen to it all day
  16. Poor Jack - Plain White T's - Good. The vocals can be a bit tiring at times and i have to deduct points for trying to simply copy the original, but they do play it well and definatly capture the emotion
  17. To the Rescue - Datarock - Great! so fun to listen too, especially with the music that plays during the fight with oogie boogie! can also listen to it all day!
  18. Finale/Reprise - Shiny Toy Guns - Great! take what i said about RJD2 and add good vocals. faithful while different, also very fun to listen to!
  19. Closing - Danny Elfman - Good. Same as i said about the opening
  20. End Title - The Album Leaf - One of the most faithful songs on the album but a very good way to close it off. anything as different as some of the others would leave me feeling less nostagic i think.
and there ya have it!

with more winners than losers i think anyone that can get into the 5 covers on the special edition soundtrack from a year or so ago will love it. 

just in time for halloween too!

Absolutezero, The Ace of Skulls

Welcome to the solution, Skull...

The final solution...

The last absolution!

Friday, October 17, 2008

Glory Glory Hallelujah

Well at least theres one thing this week i have to look forward to in a sea of Fail.

Keep it clean?

Bungie secrets?

a new Halo game... what?

and then through the clouds of secrecy and mysteriousity (yes i made this word up)  we get this:


Yes!!!

Hello first wave invasion of earth!

Hello battle of new mambassa!

yeah. you remember that dont you?

that battle all the promotional material talked about?

why wasn't that in Halo 3? yeah i felt cheated too

but no longer!

you play as a ODST (Orbital Drop Shock Trooper) during the first invasion of the earth by the covenant forces.

nope, the game does not feature the Chief as the main character... hes off blowing up the Ark remember?

but it does have an all new campaign, new multiplayer maps and formats too from what ive read.

its still an FPS, something that was under debate for awhile but thats confirmed by bungie at this point.

also still features some of the things i LOVE about Halo 3, the Forge and Theatre/Save Games feature.

which are all awesomeness.

its set for release fall 2009 as a seperate game disc not neededing Halo 3, or as (once again i hear) a download of XBL marketplace. 

come on bungie... no more pushing your games back please >.>

if you do i kill you.

Balloon Fiesta day 2 pt 1

well... the title is actually misleading...

the balloon fiesta was cancelled late friday night and all of saturday was cancelled.

instead of doing that on sat we went to eat brunch with my girlfriends family

we went to a place called golden pride.

apparently all they do is breakfast burritos, fried chicken and ribs lol.

the chicken was good though.

so after brunch there we decided to check out and head home early.

so here we are, about 2 hours into the 4 hour journey back home!

hope yall missed me!

cause momma.. momma im comin home!

Balloon Fiesta day 1 pt 3

incredible event.... not untouched by tragedy though

unfortunatly during the launch of the special shapes one of the balloons, shaped like a triangle hit a power line and the 2 pilots caught fire as their gondola caught fire and fell from the balloon.

sucks to think of something like that happening

a florida news crew apparently got video of it but it wasnt shown in its entirety for fairly obvious reasons.

after balloon fiesta we went back to the hotel

after all that it was naptime.

jesus was it nap time.

after that a trip to the mall where i browsed as my brother spent his whole check

i saw a master chief hoodie ive totally got my eye on now, and a cd of famous artists re recording the entire soundtrack from the nightmare before christmas.

and that is so win!

thankfully thats all for day 1.

stay tuned for day 2 happenings!

Friday, October 10, 2008

Balloon Fiesta day 1 pt 2


yes.

thats Darth Vader.

fucking win.

that was only one of the totally awesome special shapes balloons they had at the field. 

they had nearly 100 that all started to inflate and take off at daybreak.

they had cows, pirates, bees, cathedrals, haunted houses, and dragons just to name a few

dont worry ill hook you up with a slide show once i get back into town!

but yeah it was pretty incredible.

Juli and i ran around getting as many pictures as we could before settling down on a bench with my parents and brother.

and just when we thought it was over... several hundred balloons all came over from a field further down for a contest

the picture from the first post is of not even a tenth of the balloons we saw.

they all dipped and dove to try to snatch an item from one of 4 poles

one of which was a grand prize of a new car

the other 3 were generators and such (for balloons im sure)

they could also try and drop things into buckets as they passed

tough stuff!

Balloon Fiesta day 1 pt 1


now now, im updating from my phone again so this will look weird until i can fix it monday

that having been said this is the scoop, skinny, lowdown, story... you get the idea!

thursday night... had to miss Einherjar... but we left at about 4 o clock.

traffic sucked.

but doesnt traffic always suck?

my dad drove the first half of the 4 hr journey until my brother, recently having aquirred his liscence, begged him to take over.

it was as eventful as you would think a 4 hour drive through nowhere would be.

pretty uneventful

well at least thats over with.

and aside from getting up at 4:30 in the morning

(oh my god)

the day has been quite awesome

we got up and made our way to the local mall, hopped on a bus that took us to the field, slobbingly dragged our asses around the kiosks for breakfast and finally settled as the balloons began to launch.

it was the "special shapes rodeo"

which if you alow me a minute... i will show you what that means!

Madness is like gravity...

Well now...

i didn't get my hat last night.... but someone else did:








Insanity! Grats Skull.

Speaking of insanity...

you know i was thinking about what the Joker said in The Dark Knight....

"Y'see, madness, as you know, is like gravity. All it takes is a little...push."

which brings me to the gravity of this situation.

Y'see , just after that RDM relic dropped.... a PLD relic dropped also.

cause esentially, nobody panics when things go according to plan. 

even if the plan is horrifying.

if i tell everyone we will all wipe in dyna, or that you'll DC and your relic will go freelot, nobody panics.

because its all part of the plan.

but when one guy wins Valor Surcoat over some of the other PLDs in the LS... well then everyone loses thier minds!

Introduce a little anarchy. 

Upset the established order, and everything becomes chaos. 

Just like Saiyajinn's Surcoat lot.

completely fair.

yet some people still feel they have the right to bitch about how it shouldve gone to them

total chaos.

I'm an agent of chaos. 

Oh, and you know the thing about chaos? 

It's fair.

so people stop showing me the worst of humanity because you were beat fair and square.

so what if he doesnt bring PLD to dyna?

hes 75 /equip

and of ALL other things he couldve lotted in Xarc, he chose that. he wanted it over everything else.

thats gotta say something.

he had every right, and people thought otherwise

I guess it showed us. when the chips are down people will show ya who they really are.

Mordion Goal will be doubling up the rate PA's PLDs are going mad...
