I took a day off from work and had enough time to get some stuff done that I've been wanting to get done. So, I turned my phone off for the three days I had off, and enjoyed them oh so much.
The week started off with me messing with my VCC (see below). I finally got it all set, and lemme tell ya, it's pretty pimptastic. It works so well. Basically, I have it set up in a Halloween game theme, since October is right around the corner. There's the Grim Fandango background, and Windows is themed in orange and black. I have a ton of games running smoothly on it, ranging from the old school NES to the more modern Dreamcast and Playstation One. It's awesome, guys. Seriously, I kicked back, grabbed a Mountain Dew, and played Tekken 3 again on a emulator. It ran perfect. All on a 42" LCD. After I put all of my roms and emulators on the VCC, I decided to whip out my older classic PC games. Only the really good ones that I enjoyed as a kid. So, there's games like Grim Fandango (which I'm currently playing through again, so my wife will understand why I call it one of the greatest games out there), Final Fantasy VII, Interstate '76, and some older games from the DOS days, like Lemmings and King's Quest. Boy, what a fun time it was setting up DOS Box for each game (took me about 4 hours to set up that alone). So, it's basically 90% done. I have the interface set percent, the emulators set up, and everything is operation A-Ok. I just have to finish installing my PC games, patch all the PC games to the latest, and install the rest of the Genesis and Game Boy games on the system. After that, boom! It's all set.
As far as other things, I almost completed Paper Mario: Thousand-Year Door. I just arrived at the moon, so I'm close to the end. The game is so long. I thought I could just rush through it in a few days, but, Nintendo had more in store than I imagined. The only thing I don't like about it is some of the quest seem a little tedious (a la White Commander). But overall, it's been so fun to play it. Unlike some RPG's, I'm not skipping all the text so I can complete it. It's a great little game. I'll probably be done before the next weekend, for sure. My Mario is wearing a Wario costume and is level 27 with no coins (I spend them on those pesky badges... gotta catch 'em all).
Last, I bought a few books to entertain the old noggin. I was watching Almost Heroes and decided to buy a history book. So I bought Howard Zinn's A People's History of the United States (800 glorious pages of history). Also, I bought a book on the correct and incorrect usage of words. Mainly to expand my vocabulary more than it's backwoods heritage (even though I've never been there).
*UPDATE: Yeah, I'm returning this book. I'm not reading some marxist book. I thought it was just a history book but no, it happens to be a freakin' liberal hippy anti-war communist book. What a monkey.
So, that was my weekend. Also, I won something cool: Harvest Moon: Magical Melody. For free. No taxes on that.

Leave It To Beaver (Gangsta Edition)
by Dinghy_Dog on Comments
Oh my goodness. My brother and me are obsessed with Ward Cleaver from the 50's show, Leave it to Beaver. We find it funny that he's so nice and perfect. Well, if you want to see something down right weird, check this out. I made this and the song to celebrate great TV. Be back with a full report next week on how well my VCC went down (or my virtual console).
Best Invention That I Hate So Much
by Dinghy_Dog on Comments
Before I begin, let me add some lame sound effects. *woosh!* Flame shields are now applied to my chemical suite I wear for work. You have to wear one with the amount of crap customers spray at you. I find the best invention ever to be overused is the cell phone. I hate cell phones so much. I get in arguments all the time about this so I don't expect anything much out of you crap friends either (I'm just kidding, I love you all).
The cell phone is a great idea. You're stranded on the side of the road, you call someone to come help. Awesome. It works. But, today, the cell phone is a walk around waste of time. People in stores with cell phones annoy the crap out of me. Why? Well, I truly believe the world isn't smart enough to handle technology. Most everyone has a one track mind so doing something so advanced as pushing a basket and talking on the phone is actually impossible. I've been ran into so many times from idiots, who, of course, are talking on their cell phone. That doesn't annoy me near as much as this next thing. This is the number one reason I hate cell phones. People who are in public like to scream on them. You know when someone is talking on a cell phone on the next isle because you can hear them screaming at the top of their lungs for no reason. "YEAH! THAT'S FREAKIN' GREAT!! CAN I LICK YOUR COLD SOARS WHEN I GET HOME?". I mean, stuff you don't want to hear, you hear on a cell phone.
My best friend has a cell phone. He doesn't understand why I don't like them. With him and myself, it goes a little like this. We go to the store, his wife calls. They talk forever. We get in the car. She calls. They talk forever. I'm hanging out with his cordless, mobile wife. Not him. It just drives me up a wall. Let's say I invite you over, and just when you show up, I call someone and just chat with them until you leave. You'd think, "Man, I that was rude.". Just out of respect, you shouldn't have your cell phone out while you're with people. Or in a theater. Or shopping. Or driving. Seriously, that's a whole new paragraph.
People are barely able to drive with a radio. I have been in the car with people who text message while driving. They swerve all over the place. It's stupid, just so you can send off a quick little "lol" or something stupid. My cousin is the worst. We almost wrecked, coming to work, several times! Why? Because of text messaging. But besides that, drive around. Point out the worst drivers. They're either rich college kids or people on cell phones. I honestly think you should have to take an IQ test to drive period, much less with a cell phone.
There's my rant. Yes, I have a cell phone but it's used maybe once every six months. I don't pay monthly, so it doesn't bother me not to use it.

Virtual Console Center ('Not the Wii' Edition)
by Dinghy_Dog on Comments
I've been working on a project at my house called a Virtual Console Center (or VCC for short). I had spare computer parts laying around my closet and a compact case, so I decided to turn it into something. Here's the concept of my little guy.
Basically, the front end system is going to be a loader of which system you want to load, which is broken down into a NES/SNES/N64/Genesis/PSX/Dreamcast/M.A.M.E. emulator, most which actually go online using the Kaillera server technology (although it needs a slight update). I actually need a little help with this, because I want to use Desktop X to load the interface or something much like that. If you can help, please PM me.
The system is hooked up to my HD-TV and looks suprisingly well. It's a 42". Now why would I want to set this up like this? Well, I don't want to have a SNES/NES/Genesis/etc.. set under my TV. Just looks trashy. Plus, I can dump TV shows and DivX movies onto the 80GB hardrive and just play it directly on my TV.
So, in the end, my VCC is pretty sweet. I set most of it up this morning. It's strictly for emulation, old computer games, and DivX movies. It's pretty freakin' sweet.
(PS: Can anyone help me set up either the DesktopX or something like that? If you can program and want to help me set up a good front end boot program for Windows, please, PM me and I'll give you more details.)
UPDATE (lol, I do this a lot): Nevermind, I figured out what I want to do. Got it under control!
Specs of the VCC:
· Intel Pentium 4 2.8Ghz 533FSB
· Crappy Dell motherboard (no BIOS options)
· 256MB DDR 333FSB (Samsung) (And no, I don't need more for what I'm doing).
· 80GB ATA 7200RPM
· Eh, nothing else. Basically a CD burner. Lol.

Crap, I won a new Dell computer.
by Dinghy_Dog on Comments
I thought this would be appropriate for the special occasion.
I'm sitting here, eating my lunch, and they announce I won one of the new AMD Dell computers, the E521. Most of you are probably thinking "Whoa, good job.". Well, you don't work where I work. Last year, I won a 50" plasma television. The taxes were two of my checks, which they took out of those checks. You've probably read my rants on taxes already. Well, looks like I won another freakin' thing. It cost so much money for free stuff.
I'm not sure of the specs at the moment, but if anything, I might just keep the monitor because it will be a flat screen. Then again, I could find some sucker to buy it. I'd rather have a CRT. I just want a nice video card out of the deal. Maybe a SATA hardrive. Me so sad. I don't want a free until taxes computer!!
Beating the Games: Week One
by Dinghy_Dog on Comments
Remember how I was talking about how I never beat games that I want to play? Well, I'm officially going to be beating a few games on a select choice of consoles every week. So, here's my line-up for this week. It's a fresh week. A good week. I also have an emulator running at work so I can beat games while I'm at work. (They're legal roms because I have the originals.).
· Genesis: Castlevania: Bloodlines
· PC: Age of Empires III
· 360: Dead Rising (mainly to get the achievement points)
· Gamecube: Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door
Yeah, this is going to be fun. Finally, beating my games. I'll review the ones I beat every week too. Peace out!
UPDATE: Castlevania: Bloodlines reviewed! (Yes, I already beat it)

Nintendo Wii-ners: Choices of the gods! (Straight Outta Lynwood Review Edition)
by Dinghy_Dog on Comments
Like you may have not guessed, this is my account for which Nintendo games I'm getting pumped up to get. So pumped, I may even commit sepuku just because there's no one else around here to kill. That's how pumped I am about the new Nintendo system. Also, I know. When you read the topic: Nintendo Wii-ners, it sounds more like Nintendo Weiners but I was going for Winners. Here's the list of Good Ideas/Bad Ideas that I think the Wii is offering and then, finally, for the launch series of games. The games I most likely will pick up on the day of purchase for the Wii.
:Good Idea:
· You get a bunch of sports games to test out the controller. Not only is it good for the customers, it's also good for the company. It allows the customer to take full blown advantage of the Wii-mote, and it pushes out more sales for the Wii Sports (which, honestly, I don't think many people would have bought by itself because of the other launch games).
· The 5000 Wii points (not sure what they're called as of yet.) will be available to purchase. With that purchase, for a limited time (I believe), you will also get the classic controller for old school games. Sweet deal.
· Free online play. Sweet deal. Also, no DVD playback. I actually don't want another DVD player sitting around. It's a game console, not a DVD player. SD movies will mean me not wasting money on another DivX player or something like that.
· Love it or hate it, this system sounds like it's going to be open to hackers, which means you might be playing more than just a few emulated games on the Wii.
:Bad Idea:
· I'm not totally sure on this, but I don't think the classic games will have enchanced graphics and/or online play. Me sad.
· More expensive than I thought for the classic games. But they need to make their money so it's not too bad.
Well, that's what I think. So, here's my game list. I've yet to actually make one because I wanted more details on the games first. Let's just get this started (in here):
· The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
· Wii Sports (yeah, cus it's bundled)
· Red Steel
· Marvel: Ultimate Alliance
· Excite Truck
· Call of Duty 3
I've been saving for this so I'm prepared. If only my company would pay me. Apparently, they overpaid me last time so I'm not getting a check this week. Ugh! Lawyer, can I get some help.
"Weird Al"'s new album, Straight Outta Lynwood, is being released Sept. 26, 2006. Well, my friends, I'm buying the album for a fact. I support Mr. Yankovic 100% so I am obligated to buy it. But here's the low down on the new album. Keep this on the down low.
:Good Songs:
· White & Nerdy, Confession Part III, Trapped @ The Drive Through, Canadian Idiot, Do I Creep You Out?, I'll Sue Ya, Don't Download This Song
:Overall:
· It's better than Poodle Hat, although it's not near as good as his old mustache and glasses days. The biggest disappointment was the Polka song. It seemed to have been thrown into a blender and sorted out, unlike the previous polkas. Still, a good comedy album. White & Nerdy alone is good enough to purchase it for.
Well, that's my blog for the day.

by Dinghy_Dog on Comments
First, check out my new review: American McGee's Alice.

Guys, it's always a dude or a really, really ugly chick. You'll notice, they're always 115lbs and blue eyed blondes. C'mon, you guys are smarter than that! So, here's the man, Bloodninja, saving the day with outrageous cybering methods. WARNING: Contains somewhat sorta dirty stuff so don't sue me. I warned ya. It's been censored. Also, these are real. Lol, losers.
Bloodninja : Ok baby, we got to hurry, I don't know how long I can keep it ready for you.

Bloodninja : Rhinoceruses don't play games. They ****ing charge your ***.
j_gurli13 : stop, cmon be serious.
Bloodninja : It doesn't get any more serious than a Rhinocerus about to charge your ***.
Bloodninja : I stomp my feet, the dust stirs around my tough skinned feet.
j_gurli13 : thats it.
Bloodninja : Nostrils flaring, I lower my head. My horn, like some phallic symbol of my potent virility, is the last thing you see as skulls collide and mine remains the victor. You are now a bloody red ragdoll suspended in the air on my mighty horn.
Bloodninja : **** am I **** now.
Bloodninja : Baby, I been havin a tough night so treat me nice aight?
BritneySpears14 : Aight.
Bloodninja : Slip out of those pants baby, yeah.

Bloodninja : Robots are trying to drill my brain but my lightning shield inflicts DOA attack, leaving the robots as flaming piles of metal.
Bloodninja : King Arthur congratulates me for destroying Dr. Robotnik's evil army of Robot Socialist Republics. The cold war ends. Reagan steals my accomplishments and makes like it was cause of him.

Bloodninja : Baby?

MommyMelissa : Sure, you into vegetables?
Bloodninja : What like gardening an ****?
MommyMelissa : Yeah, something like that.
Bloodninja : Nuthin turns me on more, check this out
Bloodninja : You bend over to harvest your radishes.
(pause)
MommyMelissa : is that it?
Bloodninja : You water your tomato patch.
Bloodninja : Are you ready for my fresh produce?
MommyMelissa : I was thinking of like, sexual acts involving vegetables... Can you make it a little more sexy for me?
(pause)
Bloodninja : I touch you on your lettuce, you massage my spinach... Sexily.
Bloodninja : I ride your buttocks, like they were amber waves of grains.
MommyMelissa : Grain doesn't really turn me on... I was thinking more along the lines of carrots and zucchinis.
Bloodninja : my zucchinis carresses your carrots.
Bloodninja : Damn baby your right, this **** is HOT.
MommyMelissa : ...
Bloodninja : My turnips listen for the soft cry of your love. My insides turn to celery as I unleash my warm and sticky cauliflower of love.
MommyMelissa : What the **** is this madlibs? I'm outta here.
Bloodninja : Yah, well I already unleashed my cauliflower, all over your olives, and up in your eyes. Now you can't see. *****.
MommyMelissa : whatever.
Bloodninja : Wanna cyber?
DirtyKate : K, but don't tell anybody ;-)
DirtyKate : Who are you?
Bloodninja : I've got blond hair, blue eyes, I work out a lot
Bloodninja : And I have a part time job delivering for Papa John's in my Geo Storm.
DirtyKate : You sound sexy.. I bet you want me in the back of your car..
Bloodninja : Maybe some other time. You should call up Papa John's and make an order
DirtyKate : Haha! OK
DirtyKate : Hello! I'd like an extra-EXTRA large pizza just dripping with sauce.
Bloodninja : Well, first they would say, "Hello, this is Papa John's, how may I help you", then they tell you the specials, and then you would make your order. So that's an X-Large. What toppings do you want?
DirtyKate : I want everything, baby!
Bloodninja : Is this a delivery?
DirtyKate : Umm...Yes
DirtyKate : So you're bringing the pizza to my house now? Cause I'm home alone... and I think I'll take a shower...
Bloodninja : Good. It will take about fifteen minutes to cook, and then I'll drive to your house.
(pause)
DirtyKate :I'm almost finished with my shower... Hurry up!
Bloodninja : You can't hurry good pizza.
Bloodninja : I'm on my way now though
(pause)
DirtyKate : So you're at my front door now.
Bloodninja : How did you know?
Bloodninja : I knock but you can't hear me cause you're in the shower. So I let myself in, and walk inside. I put the pizza down on your coffee table.
Bloodninja : Are you ready to get nasty, baby? I'm as hot as a pizza oven
DirtyKate : ooohh yeah. I step out of the shower and I'm all wet and cold. Warm me up baby
Bloodninja : So you're still in the bathroom?
DirtyKate : Yeah, I'm wrapping a towel around myself.
Bloodninja : I can no longer resist the pizza. I open the box and unzip my pants with my other hand. As I ******* the gooey cheese, I moan in ecstacy. The mushrooms and Italian sausage are rough, but the sauce is deliciously soothing. I **** my **** in seconds. As you leave the bathroom, I exit through the front door....
DirtyKate : What the ****?
DirtyKate : You perverted piece of ****
Man, the best one I can't put because it's too long. It's actually the best one because it involves the FBI and battleships. Oh, well. Another time?

10K Achievement Points in 1 Week! (Now with 15K Point Bonus)
by Dinghy_Dog on Comments
Eat your heart out, Jeff! This is a post I've been wanting to release for a long time but I've just had the time to post it up. This is my mini-guide to the games and achievements that will get you that that ubber nerd status you oh so long for: 10,000 Achievement Points.
:Amped 3:
· Just play through the game once. When you're done, you'll get about 500 points.
:Madden NFL 2006:
· This is one of the hardest and easiest ones. For one, just play a 12 minute quarter game. You'll get most of them from that. To get the rest, hit analog sticks down in the menu to pull up a stat menu (it's a crappy 10 points). Then, play 30 years of franchise. Basically, it's easy and long. You can skip everything. During one of these seasons, play one Super Bowl game. Win it. There. 1000 points.
:NBA 2K6:
· Just play through the game on normal difficulty an 12 minute quarters. Play around with one character and do good with him, shooting 3 pointers and stuff like that. Easy 1000 points.
:NHL 2K6:
· Put the game difficulty on the highest and try your best to beat the game a few times. Score a lot. Score fast. Score when 2 men are out. Another easy 1000 points.
:NBA Live 2006:
· Just play through the game a few times. The achievements are minimum. It's sort of like Madden. Just do a bunch of crap just like Madden had you do but replace the Super Bowl with the Championship. A very simple to achieve 1000 points.
:Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion:
· I know what you're thinking. "He put Oblivion down? Blasphemer!". But I found out a quick way to get some good achievements in this game. This one will take you about 8 good hours to do. Much like the Madden 30 years of wasting your life achievement, lol. For one, just beat the game. While you're beating the game, take on a few guilds. I suggest the Fighter's Guild and the Arena because they're simple. To get through the game fast, steal a horse. Just run around to everywhere. You can teleport everywhere. You can also set the difficulty down to the very easiest and do one hit kills (I found this out after a month of striving for the achievements). You'll end up with around 500 points after you do those. Maybe a tad bit less. But every quest, besides the Thieves Guild, is easy for me.
:King Kong:
· This one is easy and quick. Maybe a few hours. Beat the game. Once. 1000 points.
:Fight Night Round 3:
· Another EA Sports easy one. Play career mode and do all the challenges. You don't even need to finish the game. You'll get them all. 1000 points.
:Kameo:
· This game will take around 8 hours, if you suck. Beat this game once, and you'll get yourself another 600 points.
:Tony Hawk's American Wasteland:
· Yet, another sports game. This one will requires you to push a little more work, but if you're even remotely good at Tony Hawk games, this is a few hours of work. Seriously. A few hours. Basically, beat the game, then, start a game in multi player. Load every map in multi player. For the rest, in the classic mode, just find all of the gaps, tapes, letters, combos.. etc. It's pretty simple. The last level is a bit hard. You'll probably be stuck on that one before any of them. Still, it’s another 1000 points. (You'll notice on my Gamercard, I don't have a 1000 for THAW but that's because I didn't want to waste time looking for the gaps. Yet, GameFaqs has a list of the gaps, so just check it out here.).
:Top Spin 2:
· What's up with these sports games? This one is another easy one. Just beat the game with males and females. You'll get that after a day or half that (this one just takes a while). Then, go online and defeat 50 players on ranked. Boom. Easy. Matches take about 5-10 minutes each. Depending on how sucky the other player is. After that, just slap another 1000 points onto your score.
There you have it. The fastest way I know possible to get 10,000 points in a week. Now, how would you like to get 15,000?
*Below is for the 15,000 Challenge (more challenging edition)*
·Dead Rising:
· First, are the easy ones. First, to get to level 50 fast, just do the first few parts of the game over and over. Basically, help save the first old couple. If you just want to keep doing that, just quit and save your character to your profile. Do this until you (a) can’t take it anymore or (b) level to 50. It’s around 20,000 PP each time you do it. Ok, off of that. The level 50 just makes the rest of them float by. First, you need to hang out in doors for 24 hours. Easy. It’s 24 hours in game, btw. So, just clear out a building or a spot and go do something for a while. Come back, you should have that one unlocked. The 24 hours outside is pretty easy too. This one is easy because you can get vehicles outside, which means armor. So, find the 3 crazies that roll around and shoot at you, kill them (I found the easiest way to kill them is to load up on some guns or throwing saws and hang out near a tree. The driver (obviously drunk) will hit the tree and try to run it over, giving you time to kill the machine gunner. When you get the machine gunner down, take the gun off the back and kill the driver, then the other guy. Bam! You have a vehicle. Oh, it’s also time to do the Genocide achievement. Basically, just run over the zombies over and over. By the time you kill all 53,594 zombies, it should be 24 hours outside. Yes, 53k zombies!! The car makes it fly by though. Next, in the main Plaza, near the entrance, walk on the backs of zombies until it’s been 33 feet. Note: this time accumulates so just keep walking on them again and again. Eventually, it will say 33 feet. Take a photo of zombies, and try to get at least 3,000 PP in one photo. Actually, just take a picture of a ton of zombies looking stupid and try to get a rescued person in there doing some sort of emotion. Pretty easy… Actually, I’m not going to describe everything. Just go here. This guy wrote an awesome Achievement guide. Nice work, crazedcommando! 1000 points (if you can do them all; this one’s a little hard).
:Saints Row:
This one is another long one. Basically, just play through the game and buy a ton of crap. 100 things of clothing. Walk 24 miles on foot. Kill a ton of people. Just basically play the game a ton. Look, freakin’ go here. Lol. Look at these. They’re super easy. I can’t even describe how easy these are. Before they patch the game, just play online (a lot). The game lags so bad that doing the Big A** Chains is easy. You’ll dodge bullets a la Live lag! Another 1000 points.
:Test Drive Unlimited:
· You’re probably going to hate me. This is all I have to say about this game to get another 1000 points. Drive in a car… a lot. Do all the races. Race people online (and actually win, you silly kids). Again, just drive around a lot! Buy a ton of cars. Own a lot of houses. Just try and do everything in the game.
:Quake II (Part of Quake IV):
· Actually, beat the game. 1000 points… err, wait. 0 points?! WTF!?! id Software!!
:Quake IV:
· Ok, if you’d man enough to do this, congrats. This is one I’m still trying. Beat the game on every difficulty. I’d suggest doing it this way, that way you can improve your skills. Play the medium difficulty first. Beat the game. When you get the hang of it, you should know how to use the weapons, you’ll want to go to the easier. In each level, try to only use one weapon. For instance, the first level, use only the crappy pistol. In easy, you can seriously just run past the enemies. Make sure to at least kill one Strogg. Run past them to the end, you’ll unlock an Achievement for being the “Blaster Master”. Now, you should have a machine gun. Don’t use any weapon besides the machine gun! Finish that level. Another achievement. Do this until you’ve done every level. Basically, if you don’t have the ammo, just shoot an enemy with the gun you don’t have the achievement for and run towards the end. You can do this. It’s easy. Now, when you beat easy, you’ll get another achievement. Beat the game again on the hardest difficulty, then the hard/medium. That’s the entire single player Achievements. In the run, you’ll get Achievements for helping the captain and all this bologna. Easy. So, onto the multi player. Basically, you have to be the king of Quake to get 1000 points, but it is possible (sort of). Play a ton of ranked games and be #1 several times. This could take a few weeks to complete. When you get them, that’s another 1000 points.
:Blazing Angels:
· To finish this up, let’s do something easy. Really easy. Beat the game. Play some survivor modes and ace them. Bam! The last 1000 points you need for 15,000 points.
Why didn’t I do games like Perfect Dark Zero, Chromehounds, PGR3? Well, honestly, they have some on there that are near freakin’ impossible. I think in Chromehounds, there’s one where you have to walk 100,000 miles on foot. Yeah, good luck on that.

:Amped 3:
· Just play through the game once. When you're done, you'll get about 500 points.
:Madden NFL 2006:
· This is one of the hardest and easiest ones. For one, just play a 12 minute quarter game. You'll get most of them from that. To get the rest, hit analog sticks down in the menu to pull up a stat menu (it's a crappy 10 points). Then, play 30 years of franchise. Basically, it's easy and long. You can skip everything. During one of these seasons, play one Super Bowl game. Win it. There. 1000 points.
:NBA 2K6:
· Just play through the game on normal difficulty an 12 minute quarters. Play around with one character and do good with him, shooting 3 pointers and stuff like that. Easy 1000 points.
:NHL 2K6:
· Put the game difficulty on the highest and try your best to beat the game a few times. Score a lot. Score fast. Score when 2 men are out. Another easy 1000 points.
:NBA Live 2006:
· Just play through the game a few times. The achievements are minimum. It's sort of like Madden. Just do a bunch of crap just like Madden had you do but replace the Super Bowl with the Championship. A very simple to achieve 1000 points.
:Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion:
· I know what you're thinking. "He put Oblivion down? Blasphemer!". But I found out a quick way to get some good achievements in this game. This one will take you about 8 good hours to do. Much like the Madden 30 years of wasting your life achievement, lol. For one, just beat the game. While you're beating the game, take on a few guilds. I suggest the Fighter's Guild and the Arena because they're simple. To get through the game fast, steal a horse. Just run around to everywhere. You can teleport everywhere. You can also set the difficulty down to the very easiest and do one hit kills (I found this out after a month of striving for the achievements). You'll end up with around 500 points after you do those. Maybe a tad bit less. But every quest, besides the Thieves Guild, is easy for me.
:King Kong:
· This one is easy and quick. Maybe a few hours. Beat the game. Once. 1000 points.
:Fight Night Round 3:
· Another EA Sports easy one. Play career mode and do all the challenges. You don't even need to finish the game. You'll get them all. 1000 points.
:Kameo:
· This game will take around 8 hours, if you suck. Beat this game once, and you'll get yourself another 600 points.
:Tony Hawk's American Wasteland:
· Yet, another sports game. This one will requires you to push a little more work, but if you're even remotely good at Tony Hawk games, this is a few hours of work. Seriously. A few hours.

5 Years Ago... (911 Tribute)
by Dinghy_Dog on Comments
Five years ago, a few thousand people suffered an unfortunate event that took place in New York. Two towers collapsed and the world was stunned. Some believe it was the acts of terrorism. Some believe it was a conspiracy. A lot of architects were going "WTF? How did steel fall like that?". But we know one thing is true. A lot of innocent people died and that's what's important today. Regardless of what we think happened, we know that happened and I think we should have a moment of silence for the victims of 9-11...
I made this morning. I hope you guys enjoy it. It's a lighter side of 9-11. Make sure to have your sound turned up. Enjoy.
Osama bin Laden in zee cooler (finally caught)
For some reason, a lot of you don't know what a cooler is. It's another term for prison. I'm really shocked most people haven't heard this term, since it's used in movies all the time.
