StarFox-Elite Blog

Bored out of my skull...its time for a question blog :P

Yeah Im hyper off a load of caffeine I had so I could stay up and get some coursework done for tommorow and its sorta done, I need to get to college and get some work to add to it there, and the caffeine has left me bored.

And you know the drill about the blog type lol.

As for other news, I went on Brawl, challenged a friend of mine from another forum who is pretty much an elite player lol. We brawled...24 times and I didn't win once lol. Came close, so very close lol, 'specially when I got my landmasters :P Also found, yeah Im gonna say it lol, found that my weakness in Brawl is swordsmen lol. I cannot get anywhere near them nevermind use them.

Lol so yeah, got owned, allot. By the way guys, lol, I never said I was good at Brawl, nor did I say I was bad-ish lol, depends, sometimes I can do well and sometimes not and sometimes just fail altogether lol. But thats what practice is for right? lol.

Erm, also...I got given Warhammer 40k Dawn Of War by my uncle, and I got the Elite, 360 that is, with PGR4 which I still need to try out lol.

And yeah, before you ask, I do have a new avatar (lol I bet that was your question for the blog, out the window :P) Credits to Jethawk for the avatar which kicks ass :P

As for something Im laughing at, anyone know Seth Green? Voice Actor for Joker the Normandy Ship captain in Mass Effect? He does a damn funny video of Chris Crocker lol...and yeah I find Chris Crocker to be very scary...no joke, he scares me...

By the way, Im almost done with coursework so I could maybe try getting some more brawling done :P

I guess thats it for now then, I'll see how it goes when I get questions, might make a new blog for the answers or I may answer in the comments :P

Brawl Friend Code - Found Mine :P

Yeah I looked around and got my friend code.

It is...

1848-1949-4686

And there you have it, I'll have to get Notepad out and write down all your codes :P And organise a day where we can Brawl :P Can't promise it'll be lag free or that I'll be that good :P I never played a person in Brawl or Melee before so Im not sure how to really fight anyone as opposed to how a CPU reacts.

I'll mainly use Fox but Falco and Wolf may be used too.

So yeah I unlocked Wolf, Falco and erm, I have a few left but can't really be bothered going all the way back to check lol. I still need to unlock Toon Link who is seriously pissing me off because I can't kill him lol.

I did try Wolf, and Falco and Wolf is cool, strong and easy to handle, I don't understand why people say he's so hard to control because he isn't. Falco is...hmm, he's like a slightly stronger but heavier Fox McCloud but I just don't like his reflector attack and all the small things that are supposed to set him apart from Fox McCloud, he just seems the same hence the reason why everyone calls him a clone, and I just don't feel the need to really use him, just feels strange trying to do so.

Oh and when we do play, and you guys give feedback, can you all be blunt and honest on how I play, because I don't wanna seem like I spam moves or anything lol, its just I do sometimes when playing against AI in a hurry to unlock stuff because its just that little tad easier and AI can't really care what I do lol.

I tried playing with anybody online and I can't find anyone, lol, I must be one of 3 people I know who have Brawl online in England lol.

And also another question lol, I promise is the final one...What is it like online when the With Anybody option is working? Do people spam all the time or camp or do certain characters constantly appear to be miles more frequently used than others or something? I did get one online match with somebody, who seemed to have the exact same Dark Fox costumed Fox McCloud as me lol. Owned him.

_ _ _

In other news, I need a new avatar... I made one before in a similar ****to Jethawk's but I will not use it without permission from him to do so because its almost exactly the same special effect on the render in the avatar lol.

This is the one I made similar to Jethawk's, thing is, I don't wanna copy it without asking him lol. Probably will ask in our union.

I also made a banner for Mastermind1177.

Erm so yeah, I'll see whats going on with stuff so I can get some Brawling done :P

****ing YAY BRAWL WORKS NOW!

Ok by some non-religious miracle, Brawl works! Finally lol, Im 38% through Subspace Emissary, have the full starfox team but no wolf yet.

And some asked what Freeloader was.

Freeloader is some disc that was rightly made for people who wanted to play games that were not out in their country, such as Brawl. As Brawl isn't officially here in the UK or Europe, I decided to use one. Its a disk that you insert into your Wii and somehow enables NTSC games to work or JP games whatever the freeloader variation is. Its rare that you'd need one if you're in the US or Japan since everyone gets games first there most of the time, although it is improving with who gets what at the same time.

Erm as for impressions on Brawl...

I ain't really tried other characters that much out of the SsE but I do feel the smoother gameplay and less lag time from moves which are all balanced out and stuff. Newer more perfected moves are all nice, like Fox's rapid kick :P

Just unlocked Falco and he kicks ass too.

Oh and my friend code...I may release that later today actually, I still need to find it, it did show up but I never wrote it down. Played as Dark Fox/his alternate costume, and owned face :P Annoyingly though that was the only match I could find online.

Right then, well I got Brawl working, I'll test out the Legendary Map Pack for Halo3 now and I'll post my code later when I can find it :lol:

I have Brawl and I have Freeloader! But a rant to with it too!

Yeah I ordered Brawl 3 and a half weeks ago now? So yeah, Freeloader arrives on time, but the post office wanted to keep the game until I paid the handling fees...they decided to keep it for one and a half weeks THEN send me notice saying that it needs pick-up like, NOW or its going in the trash...

So yeah I got Brawl, clawed my way through about 15 wrappings of tape and then removed the annoying uber tight packaging/plastic wrap thing and got the game out.

I got freeloader out, put it in the Wii, screen starts to flicker and go all fubar'd as it seemed, then returned to normal and I guess that was the "coloured bars that will appear on screen to show freeloader is working". Then I took out the disc, put Brawl in and waited, the window with Brawl came up, I was uber excited, then I clicked play. Black screen comes up, nothing happens! Try the whole thing 3 times again all to achieve the same result.

I'll take a look at Chocolate's blog for how he did it, he used the freeloader succesfully.

Oh and I also have an XBOX360 Elite. Yeah I know you were about to think this weren't you? "Lol matches his name!" yeah well I know, I have been told so many times that MS should give me one because they stole half my name and stuck it on a console :P

Erm yeah, bought that, me being me with a strange attention span, forgot to buy some MS points to buy the new Halo Maps :x So Im gonna have to buy them from my account....However, I did not forget this, I bought Mass Effect Special Edition and damn it has some cool box art as its a plastic cover that is slid over a metal tin case.

I was also given Project Gotham Racing 4 with the 360 Elite.

Oh and for those of you in the UK and thinking of getting one? Go to Gamestation if you can't order it online and find a better deal than £260 with Halo3 or PGR4 for free. GAME were wanting £279.99 off me with ONE game from the list consisting of Gears Of War, Condemned 2, Halo3 or Table Tennis/Ping Pong whatever its called.

Erm, also I dunno if this is a good thing but I found from my dad's friend who runs a motorbike store, that I'd been given overpriced oil which was the wrong type for my bike. I was wondering why it felt so slow at times.

Oh and something to watch, "Arby And The Cheif" on Youtube, some funny **** from the creator Digital Ph33r who made Master Cheif Sucks At Halo!, really do reccomend, seriously funny stuff. Episode 1 isn't incredible but the guy knows and he works on stuff later on. One of the episodes has Brawl as the main theme :P

I'll be back on Rainbow Six tonight possibly but its more likely I'll be on Halo3 with the new maps.

Speaking of Rainbow Six, somebody showed me this, if you do not like gore or extreme pictures, do not click this link, but this is what actually happens when you are hit by White Phosphorous (Incendiary Grenades from RB6). Pretty sick, I can see why our Geneva Convention forbids use of it by European Forces here. Freaky. Im just glad they don't show that much detail in Rainbow Six when I use them lol.

Well Im gonna be off to try and get Brawl working these next few hours so, seeya all later :P

Oh and when I get the game working I'll post my friend code. Thats WHEN I get it working so nobody put a loaded gun to the back of my head for my friend code just yet, Im working on it lol

I have the Wii Freeloader!

But I ain't got Brawl.

And I gotta say the Codejunkies do a way better job than Renchi ever will. 2 days they told me I'd have my Freeloader and I did get it in 2 days as promised.

Brawl from Renchi was supposed to come almost a week ago. Still ain't come yet. :x

I am actually annoyed about that, massively.

However, in loss of faith that I'd get Brawl for the SSBB Union's tournament I bought Melee again since my disk for it has broken. Still around and a popular game around here, couldn't find it in 2 game shops when a month ago they had about 6 copies, however I almost gave up looking and just asked if they had a copy and one of them did luckily.

So yeah Im playing Melee again in practice for Brawl when I do get the game...still playing as Fox and Falco, Fox more though, I like the speed :P Although Im stuck on Event 51 - Giga Bowser, Ganondorf and Mewtwo as one team...cannot beat them! Any tips or suggestions would be gladly accepted lol. I think I just need practice though.

And have you all seen the DS that is apparently being unveiled at E3? Or the concept designs and stuff? Supposedly a bigger screen on both halves. I heard something like it was gonna be called the new "Nintendo DS: Screen" which is next up from Lite. I may get this and trade in my old DS.

And speaking of E3, does anyone know when it is? I would love to watch it, really waiting for a new StarFox game and DLC for Brawl maybe. I have a feeling we'll be given a Brawl launch date for the UK too.

Erm, what else to mention...lol....hmm...

Well I did drop geography and now Im being interrogated as to why I did drop the lesson as I get Ds and Es in my Geography class but As, Bs and Cs in my Government And Politics class but for that lesson I failed the first exam because of a misunderstanding of the question. Geography I just did crap in although it was better than politics and Im just generally very bad at timekeeping as I lack ability to accurately tell how much time has gone compared to other people lol, and thats left me doing downright crap in geography. But its sorted now. I feel so much better having spare time and less of the geography teacher coming over and waiting for me to walk past.

Im not joking, he's tall, bald, quiet and he is like Agent 47 from Hitman...he waits in corners and around walls for me to walk past so he can ask if I've done some work that I just can't get done in time. Freaky, but he won't be bugging me now. Although its a question of what I need in grades to get to university as I do no sciences apart from Geology now. Thinking I wanna do English literature AS, Geology A2, and whoa I just noticed I have 2 new spaces for lessons now...hmm, I guess I could take some sciences, Im no good at maths but I think I could try chemistry...biology as much as I like it I was told is boring as hell at our college...

Ah well, I'll fight off the forces of "things that annoy StarFox-Elite in real life" as they come along.

I also made a new sig, I think this is the new favourite sig of mine.

Anyone Familiar With The Werewolf Mod For Oblivion On PC?

Yeah I just downloaded it, I think I put the mod in properly, I merged the files with the ones in the Oblivion Data file and I think that sorts it?

EDIT: Its completely annoyed the hell out of me, trying to install this mod, it won't work, I have the OBSE 14a or something, put the exe in the data file and in the application file/first oblivion file, copied all the files to every open file there is in the oblvion main file, and tried to get it to work about 70 times...

Anyone know how to install it? Im using the GOTY Edition by the way.

Just wondering aswell, if anyone knows roughly what level you have to be to fight, wait, nevermind that, actually find one? Because Im still level 1 lol, and I've searched on 2 nights and never found one.

They look damn awesome though, better than the vampires you can become in Oblivon which suck lol

Here's a vid....

Its awesome, you get huge claws coming out of your fist like Wolverine does from the X-Men Comics and the movies.

Here's something funny, a guy retextured a staff in Oblivion and it went from a magic stick to a boomstick... yeah he has a blunderbuss rifle... and this guy is the Ghostrider of Oblivion...

So erm yeah, if anyone could give me some details on when and where werewolves appear with that mod it'd be greatly appreciated because I could be aimlessly searching and they may only appear 10 levels later or something.

Pirates versus Ninjas... The Dodgeball Arcade Game For XBLA

The timeless battle of Pirates vs Ninjas continues in this great game coming to the xbox live arcade in spring 08.

Im talking about the Pirates Vs Ninjas: Dodgeball game.

_ _ _

And Im excited about this because A) Im bored, B) Im a pirate, always will be and consider myself as a space pirate now lmao, C) Will always like my rum. And yes, the rum IS gone right now, dunno who the hell took it, I swear I had some a couple days back in the kitchen...I blame Ninjas for stealing my rum.

Although there is one Ninja I like, its Ninja werewolves, yeah, Ninjas mixed with something cool, not some half ass mix of Pirates and Ninjas...or Pinjas whatever you call them lol.

_ _

Just wondering, who here is a pirate, and who here is a ninja? :P

_ _

Im a pirate :P

Why be a Ninja? Be a pirate, drink rum, own as much treasure as you can get your paws on and live forever :P

But yeah, that game looks awesome, I know some of you here are Ninja and Pirate fans, or fans of just one lol, maybe some of you actually ARE pirates or Ninjas lol. And yes Im aware the plural is Ninji but I don't give a crap lol.

Note: Brawl still ain't arrived yet but Im assuming its coming this weekend by then I should have the freeloader I think. Oh and I dropped geography today.

I also found Im part japanese and part chinese through my mum's recent ancestry lol.

So there you have it, this game is my highlight of the week sorta...

- Fox

They be stealin' ma emblem! =o

Lol I got the PC Affictionado emblem but it over-rid the Old Skool Gamer emblem I had :o

to ...

I want my emblem back lol, and Im for some reason lacking the Reader's Choice Awards Emblem from 2007, the blue one, everyone else got it and I didn't, despite voting uninterruptedly in the awards too.

_ _ _ _ _ _

Erm, yeah...

Seriously considering dropping geography now actually, rather than government and politics, enjoyed Politics so much more than geography right now, and the teacher in geography rushes me too much, but won't actually do as I ask despite agreeing that he'll check on me, yeah when I work, I work hard but whether Im working and explaining the right thing, I can't see myself and thats usually a downfall for me.
Also my geography teacher is like a ninja, or more like Agent 47, I was in the library doing some homework and he comes up behind me, twice without me noticing (which is unusual since Im usually a very alert person lol) and asked me why I was missing from geography this morning, I was late this morning and decided just not to go in and interrupt and just sit in the library for a couple minutes, can't help being late sometimes, thats one thing I have, naturally a symptom of a condition mentioned before lol, I have no sense of time [if not at least a very lacking and faulty one].

My memory is getting better :D Yeah lol, my short term memory usually is pretty bad and very very selective so I remembered few things but the things I remembered I remembered everything about if I was actually moderately or very intrested in. I mean I remember funny things like where keys are that I saw in the house or random small tasks that I usually forget about. :P

I watched the movie 1408. Freaky **** lol, if you like dead bodies crawling through air vents, a room haunted by a man who supposedly had a mad fit, screwdriver'd his arms and legs off and sewed them back on out of losing it in the creepy room, and a slight bit of cruel humour, then this is the film for you :D I just like an occasional scary film although the part where the main guy is in the air vent and a corpse wakes up and chases him, will haunt me for weeks lol, I never liked air vents or sticking my head in them for whatever reason...

And I still can't find my DS lol, Im going on a boring geography trip in 6 days to some random place in the middle of England. Yeah those of you who think its grass, grass and more grass here with lots of sheep, well, its not, but theres places there is :P And I'll be examining the water flow in rivers and trekking through a not-so-exotic jungle of sheep, mountains and long grass lol.

Friend of mine is considering joining the Merchant Navy of the UK, I would join too so I can be with a friend I already know there, as I've considered it before but whether we'll be on the same ship is seeming almost doubtful and I don't wanna spend 3 years training only to leave at the first year Im legally allowed to be dismissed from service. Another thing is that I've been in the ATC, I don't like worshipping people who died in what I saw as a pointless decade of wars 60 years ago, we take that seriously here in the UK, any organisation that swears loyalty to what remains of our monarchy will attend a rememberance service every 11th November. Don't get me wrong, my uncles were bomber pilots and one was a fighter in egypt and I find that cool and all, just its time to move on I think. And yeah, in general, I don't like rememberance days which also puts me off armed forces round here. I've not been around to see a war that I deem as justified and so I won't take rememberances that seriously and neither joining the armed forces...as much as I'd like to in some of the jobs available, it seems like theres more misc. things to do than actual action.

Brawl should be here anyday now, its been a week and a half since ordering and I'll get that up and running soon, erm, ah yes the 360 lol, well my uncle's got the serial number down, phoned up MS, yeah Im so glad he did because I hate phone calls about numbers and serial details and technical stuff Im not good with...should be getting a box to send it in and then back by the end of the month I guess, Im also thinking, I need some DS Games, although Im not sure which to get...every flight sim/flight action sim I found has been rated with a retardedly low score, apart from SF Command hehe :P And yeah, Im thinking of looking up some games that I never really played since the SNES, something Im familiar with...Maybe even Super Mario Bros, despite what I say of Mario, the old games were the best ones, not sure about Mario Kart, I couldn't play any race game for more than an hour without leaving it for a day.

Anyone wanna reccomend some DS Games then? :P

I still want my emblem back! :x

Lol tagged again... Yeah Update on RROD too.

About the RROD, its a hard drive failure apparently, erm, thinking of registering the console for repairs and giving it to my bro while I get a new one which I've been thinking of getting for a while.

Tagged by Spinal Clash lol and another 5 things then...

1) I have a weird eye condition that means I have eyes suited to low light conditions rather than daytime lighting, so I can't look up at the sky, or it hurts, allot, even paper can hurt my eyes lol, UV sensitivity and stuff, so I have to wear shades on a sunny day lol. Means that because Im suited to low light conditions I can see more spectrum than normal people, yet ironically it means I have less colour perception overall. Its called Irlen's Syndrome or Scotopic Sensitivity, and I will wear green tinted lenses for that soon lol. One thing thats kind cool, I can look at stuff and you know how night vision is always kind grainy? I get that just by generally seeing lol, I think thats just coincedental that NVGs look like that lol.

2) I have rick roll'd a grand total of 8 people lol.

3) Im dyscalculic, dyslexia but with maths and a couple memory problems in the package lol. Its why if ever I meet any of you I may be talking and the next minute completely occupied with something else and absent minded about it, it also means I can't count to 30 without making a mistake or thinking I have lol, generally affects basic maths but allows me to do higher level maths easily. Look it up on wikipedia, sucks lol.

4) I used to live in Dubai, lol, yeah kicks ass there, really reccomend a holiday there if you can get one, I've outlived the amount of time I lived there by living in England now, and Im gonna go back for a visit this summer.

5) Im afraid of being in water where I can't see beneath the surface, funny story here, as a kid I refused to take bubble baths because the bubbles stopped me seing under the water and I'd be too scared lol, so I tend to avoid swimming where as Im fine with heights and closed areas.

I didn't involve as many pics , wait scratch that, I didn't involve any pics, because Im tired and not that happy lol. 360 is dead and once its repaired my bro will have it lol and I will get an Elite. It matches my name then lmao but thats not why Im getting that version :P

Red Ring Of Death ...

Yeah, I was waiting for this day, I knew it'd happen especially after 2 years of use (longer than my PS2 haha - insider joke)

Put in Rainbow Six Vegas 2 and the screen started loading a weird burnt image or something and then we restarted the 360 and got the red ring of death.

Its been 2 years and its served me well, Im just wondering what Im gonna do for a couple days until I get Brawl which conviniently is arriving soon.

I'll probably register the 360 for repairs on the 360 site but if its gonna take 8 months Im not gonna bother.

Ah well, I guess its a message to you guys then, I won't be online on 360 for a while now. Im not sure how long but I'll update you on whats going on and what Im gonna do.

And I do not want any "haha 360s suck" bull****, they last longer than any console I've had if you know how to take care of them. Mine just packed in after wear and tear.

Oh and does anyone who has MSN manage to log in at the moment? I can't log in, says the service is unavailable.
