    Spring Break

    SPRING BREAK 08!

    its finally here and boy i was excited thursday. Anybody who saw me coming outta school knew i was hyped lol. My friend koop was once again speeding out of the school parking lot, but with me hanging out of the window while flashing my chest. YEP! thats how i expected most of my spring break to be, but it turns out differently. Last night we get about 8 in. of snow! Not only am i pissed, but left shocked, because there isnt much i can do or drive to do........except play video games baby!!! hell yeah.

    So far i havent even taken a shower today, but i played a little Orange Box where i didnt beat Half-Life 2, and i was trying the new halo 3 playlist Team Swat. Definitely one of my favs from halo 2, its still really good, but a little different in halo 3. Now you got bubble shields and **** blah. So now im just sitting around thinkin wut to do today, and now im thinkin about going to rent a game, because there have been some really good games gettin released in the last month. I already got Super smash, but does anyone got any suggestions?? I think im gonna go rent Rainbow Six Vegas 2, because everyone already has it, and Army of Two. Ya i guess you'll catch me on XBL.

    Rhythm game calibration

    Rhythm games have really taken the gaming market in the last couple years. Most importantly the Guitar Hero franchise which has families going crazy for the wicked instrument. Rock Band being my favorite of the new rhythm generation, has been the source of fun for me and my friends for countless weekends. The thing about the game is its all about cooperation, and agreement. Well what happens when you and your friends can't agree about the calibration of the game? It drives me crazy!

    Recently while at my friends house we were playing rock band together and while we weren't doing bad, one of my friends kept on failing. It got so bad to the point where he wanted to try a song all by himself just to test the game out. Well he continued to fail, and you know the average person would just complain out about "its the games fault". WELL he took about 15 minutes just to change the calibration to where he wanted it. A COMPLETE WASTE OF TIME, because we all knew we were playing on a LCD TV and there is a setup specifically for that type of TV. My advice for him was just to get better at the damn game, but he protested it was the game's fault and he could've beat it at his house just fine. Well there's one problem......WE'RE NOT AT YOUR HOUSE ARE WE! LIKE SERIOUSLY! GET BETTER AT THE **** GAME! If everyone else was able to beat the song just fine wuts your problem? Like these games are meant to take skill, and be kinda challenging. So when you fail, IT IS NEVER THE GAME'S FAULT. btw this isnt the first time this has happened to me, because i've had friend's over who complain "I can play the instrument in real life, this game is just retarded." Maybe these people should just keep their opinions to themselves and I wont have a reason to get pissed at them.....

    sorry wes lol

    Nintendo Wii

    Making one last push for the Wii, i decided to stand outside my local walmart, because I knew they had 29 ready for this morning. I woke up at 3:00 a.m. (remember i have to be at school by 7:20) and got to walmart at 3:45. I looked ahead of me in the line and didnt count, because that depresses me, but I estimated i was within the top 30 people. Liking my chances, I stood outside Walmart from 3:45 till 5:00, when they hand out tickets. I listened to the new Hotspot, and tried to drown out the sound of fellow wii waiters. At 5 they started handing out tickets as planned, and as the line slowly dissolved in front of me i was getting step by step closer to MY WII. Thats when the last ticket was handed to the person in front of me. I got sooooo depressed because I was #30 and they had exactly 29 Wii's. Thats when I started to reflect and think I really dont want 1 anymore. BUT WHY DID I HAVE TO BE # 30!!!
