I have never been into RTS Games except the Command & Conquer  series from EA , its the only rts game that i have enjoyed in my life, i played  command & conquer generals years back, and after playing generals that time ,i instantly became a fan of the Command & Conquer series and ever since c&c generals i waited for Command & Conquer 3, and today i got a call from my local gamestore that Command & Conquer 3 is in stock for both the PC and 360 versions :), so today  i picked up Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars for my PC,  i bought a PC game after months & months , i think the last game i bought for my pc was battlefield 2 ,which was actually free by ordering a pc magazine subscription :P, so i consider this purchase as my very first pc game of 2007 , and all i can say is that it was worth the wait , this game is huge , its just awesome , i tried a demo for both pc and 360 versions last month and i was impressed . and today , after finally getting the full version of the game, it felt like being on top of the world :). Command & Conquer 3 was on my 11 most wanted games list of 2007 & i am glad that i finally got 1 of my most wanted games of 2007 today . ever since it released , i tried for it everywhere and i was unable to find a single copy of the game & today for me its like mission accomplished :wink:.

I have just reached home and right now i am installing it :P. i was waiting all day long just to play this game , and now that i have reached home , i cant wait anymore , so guys all i want to say is this , if you have never played a rts game in your life , then now is the time to play Command & Conquer 3 Tiberium Wars , it the best RTS Game ever made in my opinion , if you love action , then you are definately gonna love this game , i dont have any words for this game , i am speechless :) , so guys go ahead , if you have a good pc or a 360 ,get Command & Conquer 3 now , you need to play it to believe it .it doesnt matter which version you pick , whether its on the 360 or PC , both are excellent , on the PC its Superb , on the 360 its excellent , its a clear example of a console rts done right ,the controls on the 360 are perfect , and i may get a 360 version too when i get a new 360 :wink:. well enough said about this game now , i have to go now , the installation is almost complete now , i need to play this game now and fall in love with it , so c ya guys later in my next blog , i have too much gaming to do now :P, have fun & enjoy your gaming life :wink:., oh , before i leave you guys , some videos in the end  , enjoy :P

In other news i am enjoying G.R.A.W a lot on my EX X 360 :P, its a very realistic shooter ,its one of the best game on the 360 , and i also tried the Forza 2 Demo , its amazing , i am looking forward to it :wink:. as for the xbox 360 Elite goes .

 

Its available here, but  for a very heavy price 900 us $ and that to be with no warranty at all coz its not officially released and might be relaesed around August end, and on the other hand the Premium 360 is available for 680 us $ with 1 year warranty . so i may pick up a premium 360 once again :D, my previous 360 didnt had warranty , thats why i sold it in the first place . and now since my vacation is delayed i may pick up a premium 360 in a couple of weeks and a PS3 later when i am on vacation . i think it ll be nice to pick up a 360 first coz Forza Motorsport 2 is here :), Shadowrun is almost here and games like Hours of Victory ,The Darkness & Dirt are just around the corner :wink:.

Call of Duty 3 was freakin awesome

 

it was weekend time , which means i played some games and this weekend i played call of duty 3 on my ex x360 :P, well i went over my friends place for my weekend .  he s quite new to the 360 platform , he s more of a sony fanboy :lol:. so i played call of duty 3 and it was freakin awesome ,call of duty 3 is quiet cinematic . i enjoyed call of duty 2 on 360 too , and in my opinion , call of duty 3 has improved a lot in its graphics and multiplayer . as for the single player portion of the game , its intense , it has that cinematic feel, the missions are amazing . the only thing bad is that its too short .i completed it in 8 hours :P. it should have been long , like 12 to 14 hours atleast . overall call of duty 3 is a must have 360 game if you love world war 2 games :wink:. sometimes in the game , i just paused for a while and looked at the environment :P, it was very detailed

 

Call of duty 3 has that feel of what the real world war 2 would have been like. The very first mission of the game is intense .its intense action . i enjoyed it a lot :D and after completing cod 3 , it was time for some action in the ring . we played some wwe svr 07 and i pwned him big time :P. he kept on loosing all of the matches except 1 royal rumble coz i was eliminated in the end by a cpu boogeyman :P. we had nonstop fun in wwe

 

its always on weekends where i do nonstop gaming , no sleep , phone calls , no work :P ,only gaming .


Some Bad News & Good News.

First the bad news , my vacation which was supposed to be bye this week has now been delayed coz i have too much work :(,so i have delayed it for a while and now i ll be getting my vacation next month , which means i ll have to wait for another month for my Ps3 and 360 Elite :(. plus i ll also have to cut some time from gs for a week or two , but not totally , i ll still be watching your blogs and comment on it :P.

Now the good news , my friend is going out for a couple of weeks for his training program , and has taken my psp along with him and has given me his 360 for time being , which means i ll be back with my ex x 360 ,and now i ll be completing some games that i left in the middle ,

 

I will start with G.R.A.W, i have always wanted to play this game , but due to too much gears of war :P, i never got the time to play it and now i ll be finally playing graw :). i have also planned some other awesome games which i left in the middle like

My Killer Instinct has got me my very first goal in life

ever since i joined my Business , i had 1 thing on mind & only 1 thing , to make it perfect and the best , and i think last nite i just did that :wink:. thats right guys , the Lionhart inside me , that Killer Instinct has finally got me some succes in my professional life ,& for all those of you that wonder , that money grows on tree . well its time to answer all your questions . money does grow on tree , if you plant the right seed and take care of it day & night with your heart & soul . i have put unlimited amount of time to my work , i ve worked day and night 4 it , and now all the hardwork that i did for my business is starting to show up .

Last Night was my Hotels 15th Anniversary  , and i launched a new Lounge  , First i thought of starting a Disco Theque , but due to heavy paper work, Licenses and restrictions , i scrapped that idea for sometime, and i made a little chamber theme .a chamber for those young freaks like me that liker to party a lot . and it was a huge succes , i got  appreciated by tons of people :D, they really liked my work . when i started designing it , i had a little bit idea, on how to design it . well i know how that Malibu Club and Vinyl Countdown in gta s look like :P, and the fact that i had played sims 2 for hours and hours , i decided that i ll design this place by myself . so i started everything from scratch , i tried some photoshop in my pc , on how it ll look , took some pictures from the internet , and i finally decided a theme , and guess what guys , i named it Emeralds , and that is what all the theme was , so i knew that there cant be any better name then Emeralds , now i think i should offer people a copy of pokemon emerald in exclusive parties . here guys have a look at my work .

PIC 1 (work in progress )

PIC 2 (work in progress )

After .

these pics are after completion , u can compare these pics with the link above , its exactly the same place :wink:.

.

I also designed some rooms too , here :wink:,

( i know its not that good , but i think as a start , its good :P )

 I ve got more pics , but i wont post coz i dont want to create another long blog :P. my restaurant is also very famous here for the Food and Drinks , we are too good in making Pastas , Chicken Steak Sizzlers , Indian food , Chinese food , Continental and Some Italian food too :P.  Drinks like Blue Lagoon , Black berry , Black Ocean are some of our top Mocktails .

.

 I am so happy at the moment :), i ve worked hard for all of this ,i remeber those nights when i used to come back late at home , some where around 2 am, then log on to XBOX live coz the fact that i loved gears of war a lot , it used to be my routine . work overtime , then even after getting tired i use to play my 360 , loose my sleep then wake up almost in the afternoon :lol:. and now that i recently sold my 360 coz i am getting an elite , i had hours of hours for my work and time to set up a new routine, so i spent maximum time in my office all these days , and since my psp was always in my pocket with a wwe and nfs UMD , i never felt like getting back to home and play something on my ps2 or xbox :P , well i did used to come back at home , but only to sleep , then back to work , my job is very tough , it may look like its easy , but believe me , managing it , and making it almost perfect is tough , its a very healthy profession and i love doing it :wink:. i have some dreams that may never come true like being in the WWE  one day ,i dont know why, my heart always keeps telling me that i belong there , and i must be there by any means neccesary

 

This is my place , its the place where i should be ,i feel that i was borned to be here , i dont know whether it ll happen or not , but i do know that my heart is full of purity , it has got that will , the will to be the best , the will to climb that hill, the will to be there and continue that legacy of wrestling. i ve been watching wrestling for more than 18 years now , i wanna be there , but right now i dont see it coming , all thanks to my shoulder injury three years back that took all the muscularity away from me , i have lost that muscular physique that i used to have , sometimes i just feel getting back to my gym , picking up that 100 pound dumble , i miss my gym , i worked hard for that , but 1 injury just took everything away from me :( and it happened when my life wasnt that good , but i ve never lost hope in my life , and now that i have almost everything in life , i want my physique back , i dont care if i have to train 24/7 for it , coz i know that i lost something in life which was very important to me and now i want it back :). well its been my life s history , i always loose my things that i love the most, and then i always get it back coz deep down inside me , i have that desire to be the best ,i have that killer instinct , this killer instinct is what that makes the Lionhart inside me. i wanna live life in the fast lane , but only time will tell what life has stored 4 me :wink:, but for now i have accomplished my very first goal in life :), and that was to be something on my own , i never bought a  car with my own money, but i bought a Cruiser Bike 4 years back from my own money which i sold last year :( coz i wanna get something bigger than that . and last month i saw my dream bike in front of me .

When i saw this Hayabusa in front of me , i promised myself that 1 day i ll definately take it home , but only from my own money . right now i can only manage to get all games and next gen consoles that i want , i need some more hardwork to get my dream bike . i hope that i ride this baby soon :wink: .

Well thats if 4 now guys , i hope that u guys didnt got bored , but thats my story , My story is no different than  GTA guys like CJor Tommy Vercetti , you start up with nothing , then you come to know the real facts of life , then you start building up your rep and empire, and get to top 1 day :wink:.my story is just like a gta story ,  i started four years back with nothing at all , i was very innocent, then i got into some trouble , then i figured out , i aint no homer simpson :P but definately something like Tommy Vercetti and Master Chief :P , and now just coz of my hardwork ,betrayel from some people, and all the wishes from my friends and family , i have reached a certain Milestone in my life ,and all i can say is that guys if you have the Desire , you can just come back from anything in life and win back everything that you lost , and hey gagan :P, The Road Starts Here , It Never Ends :wink:

i need to get back on the road thats waiting 4 me !

Gears , Gears , Gears

 

oh yeah :), it was all gears of war that i played this weekend , coz the fact that i have to sell my 360 today to a friend of mine :wink: .and since gears is one of my most played game ever both online and offline , i decided to play only Gears of War throughout my weekend , and it was awesome , i started with the new maps that i recently downloaded and it was awesome . i tried all the new levels including Garden , Bullet Marsh , Subway and Process , and i my opinion these are the best gears maps , so if u guys havent downloaded these maps then i would say , get them, dont wait till september , coz in september halo 3 will be out and most of the people will be playing halo 3 then :wink:. so get these new gears maps on the double , they are worth those 800 points :).

Then i stared the single player campaign on hardcore with my friend whos actually buying my 360 , we started it and my friend kept dieing all the time and i have to revive him a thousand times :P, but later he started playing well and we beat the single player campaign in no time . after that i felt kinda sad packing my 360 back :(,and when i sold my 360 i felt like crying :cry: . i also sold some of my 360 games including gears of war :shock:, need for speed carbon, rainbow six vegas , the godfather and saints row  . and right now i am in no mood to play any games on any console at all :( . i loved my 360 a lot , i took care of it each and everyday , but i have to sell it , coz i am getting a 360 Elite now :). i still have all my gamesaves and achievements backed up on a memory card , so when i get an elite , i get all my saves there . so now i dont have a next gen console , but its not that bad , coz i sold my 360 to one of my friends who lives at a walking distance from my house  , which means that i can still play on it whenever i wish :P . so thats it 4 now guys , i am waiting for my Ps3 and 360 Elite now :) , i ll miss gears of war ,its my favourite 360 game and the best multiplayer game ever made . i ll miss xbox live , i ll miss my friends :(. well its only 4 a short time , till i get a 360 Elite :) .

so this is Lionhart4xtreme, signing off , see ya soon :wink:

i cant wait for my next Next Gen Consoles

se 

After a lot of research at almost every gaming site :P, i ve made up my mind . i am getting a Playstation 3 :). i also need a Wii , but i cant get it :( coz i wont have that much money left after buying a Ps3 and some games for it .  i had a little 3 day vacation with my family a while back , but my real vacation starts from June , i have already booked my tickets for June 1 as i ll be leaving for my long vacation along with my brother and during that i ll pick up My Ps3 and some games for it . i have pre ordered

                                                &

I had planned a Ps3 in March of this year, but i didnt bought it that time coz i felt that it wasnt worth the grand , and the fact that it was retailing here for almost 1000 US $ :shock:, i canceled it , but now its easily available here for around 600 us $ for the 60GB version :) , and 1 of the main reasons i am getting a Ps3 is that i cant hold my money for long , i was gonna pick up a 80 gb i pod last week , but then i realised , that i should not be wasting my money on an i pod , and i better get a Ps3 or a Wii :P.

I think that i made a good decission :), i dont wanna end up buying an i pod or wasting my money on my car or something else :P. so i am getting a ps3 soon .


Ps3 aint the only console i am getting :P

well , well , well . i recently pre orderd Halo 3 and the fact that halo 3 is landing on september 25 and i need a bigger hard drive , i am trading my current Xbox 360 for a Xbox 360 Elite :). the other reason that i am trading my 360 is coz my 360 is out of warranty and recently , lot of my friends 360 breaked for no reason :(,. plus i imported my 360 from U.S in august last year and at that time it was not even released here :P , so i have no warranty at all and now its hard to get ntsc games on day 1 , i always get pal version here :(,so it ll be nice to have a new 360 elite with extended warranty from here and  i know that i made the right and best decission , but still want all your opinions guys , so feel free to give me some good suggestions :P .

I had a ps3 for a couple of days in march , u can watch that blog here :wink: , oh and some videos for you guys :P

i am back from the highway

oh yeah , i am back :P, first of all sorry to everyone for not commenting in your blogs coz i was out from 3,4 days and i didnt carried my laptop, i went out for a small vacation with my mom and dad , and it was awesome , i was sooooo dam busy with my work . and my mom dad were going out for a vacaction and they took me with them :P . it was fun , i had a gr8 time with my mom,dad . and now i reaslise that my family cares for me more then i do . i enjoyed this little 3 day vacation a lot :) , it was fun at the highway and here are some pics that i took while my dad was driving .

 it was gr8:) , i did some shopping there too , and for the first time on vacation i didnt bought a new game :shock:, coz i am getting my 2nd next gen console very soon . i would also like to thank all of you for being there at my party last week that rocked and later became wilder than i expected :P


 

oh a Resistance disc in my hand :shock:, well its not mine , i was going to buy it but then i realised that i dont have a ps3 :lol:, and when i get a ps3 , it ll be my very first game on it :wink:.


Got The New Gears Maps

I finally managed to get some MS Points through a friend of mine :) , and the very first thing i did was i downloaded the Halo 3 theme and gamer pics :), then i dowloaded the new gears maps , i know that these maps are gonna be free in september, and i cant wait that long for it , so i downloaded these new maps ,and all i can say is that those maps are worth getting it . that pic is from 1 out of the 4 maps , its called Process , i only tried the 2 maps , the first one was garden which looked awesome and the second one i tried was process , i never tried the other 2 coz i was busy playing these maps :P which are just awesome . so if you enjoyed gears multiplayer then its a must have , you should definately get it , its worth those 800 points :) and speaking of points , my gamerscore is taking a rest from last week :P coz i didnt played a single game on it last week , it took a break from my gaming life for 10 days , i cant believe that i didnt game at all during these days :shock:, but now i am back and my gamerescore will now definately go up like it used to be :P.

i also downloaded Double Dragon on my 360 and its awesome , it fun to play those awesome old school games in HD .What arcade game should i get from XBL arcade now ?, i hope u guys can help me out on this , i spent some 1800 points today on gears of war maps (800), double dragon (400), some themes (300), some gamer pics (300) , i waisted some points on far cry and burnout gamer pics , it was around 150 ,so its ok :(, i still have 2200 points left :) from which i ll get the new crackdown DLC and somer arcade games , so guys plz suggest me a must have arcade game that i should get :D i am planning castelvania at the moment, suggest a good arcade and u get a cookie from me :P


 

Finish The Fight Early

I am soooooooooooooo glad to hear that Halo 3 , my most awaited game of all times is gonna be released on September 25 :), i never expected that it ll be released this early :shock:, and this news has also effected my decission in buying a ps3 and wii , so now it looks like that i wont get my ps3 or wii before september coz i ll be busy with Halo 3 itself and wont get time to play other consoles , and now it looks to me that i might trade my current 360 for an xbox 360 Elite instead of getting a wii or ps3 :P. well i am still confused at the moment , so i ll talk to you guys later about this in my next blog :D, till then enjoy these videos from the new gears maps :wink:
