Jeff G-Man Gerstmann

I'm still going to visit the site. But, until they get Jeff back I'm not paying CNET another dime. Subscription cancelled! I don't care what he was fired for... He was a great dude and the heart and soul of this place. Look around, this place is dead without him. They need to get him back... Or jump ship.

Shadowrun and FASA are dead now....

I'm so sick of other gamers right now. Basically, FASA (one of my favorite studios) is gone. Not only did Micro$ play the greed card... But most people hated on Shadowrun for no good reason. 9 out of 10 people that hated Shadowrun, don't have a legitiment reason for disliking it when you ask them. Charlie44 from the COD4 beta told me "I didn't even play Shadowrun, I hated it because it wasn't an RPG"... People have said that in the gamespot forums... In the FASA forums... Everywhere. Makes me extremely pissed. You kids couldn't even try it before you hated on it?

Random Return followed by COD4 Beta Hands On

My last blog was about Chrome Hounds and Prey... Both looked awesome... Both sucked. It's a damn shame... Now, more then a year later... HALO 3 IS COMING OUT... I super excited. The only problem with the Halo games... too me... Was all the trash talking. Everyone claimed to hate it, and then just went ahead and did it anyway. Kids signing show tunes, drunk people reading the riot act, ubber nerds telling you that you do infact suck at all games ever made and your Mom is a W...... Anyway, you get the point. I got the COD4 beta working, it's awesome. I played all last night, almost non stop. I just hope there are more weapons in the final version... There areSO not enough weapons in the multi-player beta. Also, COD4 has the same problem as 2 and 3... The spawn areas are easily taken advantage of, allowing sneaky players cheap knife kill after cheap knife kill. I like the graphics, the people glow in the sun a bit much though, but besides that they're are awesome. Plus, the graphics areprobably toned downin the Beta anyway. The knife kills are really cool. The weapons look and sound very authentic, now if they could let you change between burst, single shot, and full auto without having to switch guns entirely! I still don't know how to use the perks entirely, mostly the c-4 and RPG... I'll have to figure that out. Anyway, it's awesome... PLAY IT!!!

Chrome Hounds and Prey

Only a few more days until July 11 and the release of Chromehounds and Prey. I'm torn between which one I will play first. I'm ready for a new 360 title, seeing as hitman isn't quite my style... I don't sneek, I kill.

KH2, What I know so far.

I've got quite a bit of time in on Kingdom Hearts 2 already... and I haven't left Twilight town yet. It's because I'm going over the whole game with a fine tooth comb, searching every corner and back alley in the game. The first kingdom hearts, you were missing half the fun if you didn't search and find the little secret stuff here and there. The story is incredible... I've noticed that alot of the reviews for the game are claiming to have spent 40 to 100 hours on it.... which is BS!!! So, if you want to see an accurate review... I'll be posting one after an entire weekend of solid non stop play. Check back next week. If you want to know wiether or not to buy the game... I haven't left the begining crap and already can tell you... KH2 is better then the original.

The CPL

As most gamers know... Professional gaming is quickly becoming a major reality. I could be the next Michael Jordan of the gaming world. Much like Texas Hold 'Em has made nobody poker players into household celebrities, our time has come. But, where do I begin. How do I become a professional gamer? Other's have suggested I enter the CPL summer tournament in Texas, it's a good way to get your foot in the door. Only problem is, I'm no good at Quake 4 and only decent in Counter Strike. If this was a Perfect Dark Zero tournament.... I'd have this one in the bag. lol. Anyway, I really don't feel right about CPL. Quake and CS just aren't my games. If I go there this summer, and fail horribly, I'll destroy my chance of getting in on games I'm good at like UT. On the other hand, if I don't start kicking ass and taking names now, I could be too late for gamings revolution. Maybe I'm not ment to be a Pro Gamer. But, maybe I am. Should I enter CPL?   

Top 500

I got a top 500 reviewer badge.... I feel so loved...... and not afraid and alone......... which I am........... NOT. Awesome, I got a badge by just being me, I wasn't even trying to get it, nor did I know it existed. Man, I don't even know what I did to get it, but it's FRESH!!!! Anyway, enough of me for now. Peace.

I have the greatest game idea

Check this out The Sims: Battle for Middle Earth. It's just like the Sims right... only instead of house building and people.... you could build a shire and control hobbits. That would be cool. I heard there is a Lord of the Rings MMO coming out, I hope it's good.

Achievements!!!

How is it that games like GUN give you achievements for the simple task of walking, when games like Perfect Dark Zero make you work for them. There should be a standardized approach to points, Microsoft, fix it!!!
